Daily Prayer with Reverend Ben Cooper
Daily Prayer with Reverend Ben Cooper is a global daily prayer and teaching podcast rooted in the living Word of God. It exists to bring healing, peace, and prophetic encouragement to people in every nation and every situation. Each episode invites the listener into real prayer—Spirit‑led, Scripture‑anchored, and focused on restoration of the body, mind, and spirit. This is not background devotion; it is an active call to pray, to believe, and to stand on the promises of God when life feels uncertain. Every day, short prayers are released at set times across the world so that someone, somewhere, is always being lifted in prayer. Listeners hear prayer for healing, prayer for anxiety, prayer for breakthrough, prayer for strength, and prayer for peace, all spoken with biblical clarity and prophetic conviction. Each moment is rooted in Scripture and guided by the Holy Spirit, turning verses into living declarations that realign hearts with faith and renew the mind with truth.
Alongside the daily recordings, Reverend Ben offers longer episodes that combine prophetic teaching with extended prayer. These thirty‑ to forty‑five‑minute sessions explore how to pray through Scripture, how to recognise the voice of God, and how to apply biblical principles to everyday life. They include prayer for deliverance, prayer for forgiveness, and prayer for inner healing, reminding believers that God’s power is not distant but active in the present. The tone is pastoral yet bold, inviting believers to move from listening to participation, from fear to faith, from silence to spoken prayer. Each broadcast is designed to help listeners grow in discernment, spiritual strength, and confidence in God’s promises.
Reverend Ben Cooper, a pastor, broadcaster, and communicator known for his integrity and depth, leads the ministry with genuine compassion and prophetic insight. His words carry authority shaped by decades of experience in prayer, preaching, and pastoral care. Through his voice, thousands are reminded that prayer still heals, God still speaks, and the presence of the Holy Spirit is as powerful today as ever. Listeners across more than 170 countries tune in daily through Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Buzzsprout, and iHeartRadio. The global schedule ensures connection for believers in every time zone, from morning prayers in North America to evening reflection in Asia and Africa, creating a continuous wave of intercession that never stops.
Daily Prayer with Reverend Ben Cooper is sustained entirely by listeners who share its vision of global prayer. Supporters who contribute through RBChristianRadio.net help keep the broadcast free and accessible, ensuring that every prayer can reach those who need it most. A gift of even a few pounds a month helps extend this mission and keeps the message of healing and hope flowing without interruption. The ministry’s aim is simple but urgent—to restore faith where it has weakened, to speak life where despair has settled, and to remind every listener that God is still in control.
This podcast is more than words; it is a living stream of prayer that covers the world. It speaks directly into anxiety, illness, confusion, loss, and spiritual fatigue. It proclaims healing through Christ, release through faith, and renewal through the Holy Spirit. It stands as a daily reminder that prayer is not a routine but a relationship—an ongoing conversation between the Creator and His people. Every episode is a moment to pause, to breathe, and to reconnect with the presence of God that never leaves nor fails. Daily Prayer with Reverend Ben Cooper calls believers to return to the altar of faith, to listen for the prophetic word, and to walk in the power of prayer that changes everything. Across continents and generations, it unites voices in one declaration: God still heals, God still speaks, and prayer still moves mountains.

Welcome And Settle In
SPEAKER_00Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, wherever you are in the world, thank you for making daily prayer part of your life and part of the rhythm of your day. Whether you've been journaling just for a few hours today or just gently praying, having a cup of tea or a cup of coffee, just taking time out, the busyness of life, just now listening to the sound of my voice. We're gonna pray together. So whether you've been journaling, reading the prayer, or you're listening to this audio prayer right now, let's jump straight in. We are going to the beautiful book of Matthew, chapter 11, verse 28. This is the title. Father, we thank you for the love of God that is over our lives, and wherever we are now, we need rest. Father, we need peace for our heart, our mind, and our body and our soul. But Lord, you give us an open invitation in the glorious book of Matthew 11, 28. Come to me, all of you that are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Father, I don't have, we don't have the privilege that the disciples had walking on the pathway on the shoreline of Galilee, walking with you, Jesus. So Lord, we need to go by faith. And Lord, so often it is so difficult. Lord, you are calling us right now. Lord, we didn't have the privilege of seeing the physicality, touching the hem of thy garment, seeing you face to face. So Lord, sometimes our faith gets a little bit stretched. And Lord, when we're overtired and we're weary, Lord, the cry is today, call us, Jesus. We are tired, we are weary, and we are burdensome. But right now, Lord, we believe that the beautiful book of Matthew is calling each and every one of us. So Lord, wherever we are across the four corners of the world, we stretch out, Lord, with hope and faith. But Jesus, come to me and help me. Lord, you invite me to come to you. And Lord, I'm bringing the invitation to you right now because Lord, I'm at work and I'm a little bit scared. Lord, I'm in the rhythm of day and it's getting a little bit heavy. Lord, I feel really weary and tired. And Lord, I'm not quite sure how I'm gonna find you through the carnage and through the chaotic way this day is unfolding. But right now, Lord, you very clearly tell us, come to me, all of you that are weary and burdened, and you will give us rest. So Father, I pray that you will help us to cast our burdens onto you. So Father, I thank you right now that I'm sitting at my desk. Lord, I finished the school run. I'm at home, I'm resting, I'm in bed, Lord, I'm in the gym, Lord. I'm just living my life. And Father, I pray as we capture the sound of this prayer, I pray, Lord God, that you will lift us out of the worries and the fears of life. Lord, we've got responsibilities that are gathering. Lord, we've got fears that are running alongside them. And right now, Lord, help us to pause in the middle of our day. Help us to pause right now and to breathe. Father, we commit our heart, our mind, our body, our soul to you right now. But Lord, I pray that wherever we are, that you will restore us, that you will carry us, and you will help us just to slow down. So right now, Lord, whatever this hour may be, Lord, will you reset our heart? Lord, when the weight of the day begins to settle in, Lord, we don't want the day to settle in. Lord, we want it gone at the name of Jesus. And Lord, we walk through that beautiful book of Matthew. Come to me. All of you that are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Lord, this is the hour that we need rest. So Lord, through this devotional reflection time, Lord, we are reflecting through the word of God. I thank you, dear God, that you are calling us and we can hear you through the scripture as we read it and come to me. Lord, I thank you that you are calling us right now. Lord, I pray that we will make you our anchor, that we will make you the center of our lives. And Lord, I release the weight that I cannot carry right now. And I receive the rest from God's freely heart given to me. So right now, Lord, your heart, Lord, is freely giving me love. And Lord, I thank you right now. I'm learning to rest in that heart of God. So Jesus, when the weight of this day begins to press in, draw me back to you. Help me to release what I am carrying and receive the rest that only you can give. Restore my strength and steady my heart as I trust in you and you alone. Father, bless the listeners, bless the prayer family wherever they are right now across this platform of this world. May the Spirit of the Lord be with you. Thank you for staying with us. Thank you for journeying with us. May God bless you on a beautiful day. In Jesus' name. Amen.
