Welcome to Daily Prayer. I'm Reverend Ben Cooper coming to you live from this studio in London, England. Let's open the word of God together. Let's stand together. Let's cry together. Let's hold it to faith together. Let's rise together. Whatever you are doing right now at the close of this day, I invite you to pause. Just sit down, grab a cup of tea or a coffee. Come on, let's pray out this day. We got a lot to pray for. Time is of the essence. But without further ado, I just want to say thank you for staying with me today and every day as you share out these prayers.

Psalm 4:8 And Resting Safely

SPEAKER_00

We're going to cross straight over to Psalms 4, verse 8. This is a closing title of our prayer together. Tonight, you can rest in safety with the Lord. Father, help us to rest in safety with the Lord. Lord, we know that you are omnipresent. Lord, we know that you are omnipotent. Lord, we know that you are with us right now. But Lord, my mindset, Lord, we pray for our mindset. Lord, will you give us a steady mind? Lord, you tell us, Lord, as we walk through the scriptures, Psalms 4, verse 8, in peace I will lie down and sleep. For you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.

Calming The Mind And Releasing Worry

SPEAKER_00

Holy Spirit, will you deal with my mind? Lord, will you deal with my thought power? Lord, help me to let go and to let God. Help me to release everything to Jehovah Jirah, Jehovah Nisi, Jehovah Shalom. Help me to release everything that is weighing me down, getting me scared and worried about the general rhythm of life. Father, I place into your hands the things that I cannot do. And when I really look at those things I cannot do, Lord, it is everything. Because, Lord, all things are possible to those who believe. And Lord, help me to seek thee first the kingdom of God and thy righteousness and everything else shall be added unto thee. Lord, you are our constant. You are the bright morning star. You are Jehovah Jirah, Jehovah Nissi. And Father, you meet us exactly where we are. But right now, Lord, will you help us to let go? Lord, will you help us to let go of the worries? Lord, the betrayal, the scared feelings, the brutality of life. Lord, our head is fixed with certain scenarios. Lord, our heads are like a firework display. Lord, there are rockets, there are caffeine wheels, there are explosions of thoughts. Holy Spirit, I pray that you will calm our mind right down. Lord, I pray that rain will come in and that refreshing rain will carry us through this night. Lord, as this day gently comes to a close, Lord, as this hour comes to a close, help us to turn the key on this

But Lord, as we stretch out live from London, England, all the way to Zimbabwe, Botswana, Russia, Rwanda, Bahrain, and Italy, Lord, we are praying for a spiritual uplift. Lord, we need rest tonight.

Lord, we call on the name of Jesus. And right now, Lord, we just look up to the hills. We look up above the cloud line of life. We look up and above, dear God, the ceiling of our lives, and we call on the name of Jesus.

Night Covering And Sweet Sleep

SPEAKER_00

Lord, I pray that you will breathe over our lives tonight, that the four winds of heaven will blow over the corridor of our lives. Whatever we've walked through, whatever we've crawled through, whatever we've run through, from the valleys to the mountains, to the seas to the rivers, dear God, to the valleys of life, to the seasons of life, to the battle in the mind, the battle in the heart, the external battle, the internal battles at home, at work. Father Lord, we come to you right now. And Lord, will you carry us through this night? Lord, I thank you that angels have been deployed and they are seated around our life. I thank you, dear God, that no weapon forged against us shall prosper. But Lord, we got to sleep. Lord, we have to sleep. So tonight, Lord, will you anoint us? Lord, will you anoint us tonight so that we will sleep and our sleep will be sweet? And Lord, as we dwell in the safety and in the presence of Almighty God, I thank you for this day. I thank you for every hour, every conversation, every phone call. I give you thanks for this day. But right now, Lord, help us to let go and to let
