Needing and Interceding: Prayers for him-2001

There is power in intercession and whether you know the loves of your future or not (your spouse and children) it is a fulfilling practice to begin praying now. It will amaze you that God knows, He hears and He answers. These Prayers for Him written around this time 11 years ago, give me that assurance.

Prayers for him

February 2001

…I lift up the man of my dreams. Keep him Lord from making that wrong move or going that hard way. Make him find his way to You all the time. Continue to give him grace and please let him know that I am patiently waiting and because of that, he should take caution for my sake. Thank You Lord…

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

…I’ll voice my prayers over several other things but now (for the record), I lift up the man of my dreams. Keep him whole Lord. May he learn to stand alone with You now and the same for me that when we meet and later join forces to become one, that we would be complete in You. Sanctify him, Lord, for Your mighty work and give me full cause to always love and honor him. Bless him today that he will experience joy and peace today beyond his very understanding. Draw him to Yourself and bless him. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Proverbs 4: 23

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life

I want to keep m heart henceforth. My heart has been expecting acceptance from a variety of angles, but now I declare, in Your power, that my heart must seek You. For me, it is difficult to be sure that what I have been doing is all to bring You glory. I know that Your love for me supersedes my comprehension. But I really don’t get it. I am not grasping this love. It is here; it is real; it is mine- I’m sure of it. But to understand it and to accept it with no physical markers is difficult. I need the special grace to make it through this day knowing and sharing that love with everyone that I know. It really is all about You. Lord, please put life back into perspective. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Father, I lift up the man of my dreams. He is seeking You. He really needs You in his longings and over the decisions he has to make. Draw him close to You. Love him more that I ever could. Give me the grace, Father, to begin acting fair toward him because I’ve failed to do so till now. You know, I’ll wait. Father, please just be by my side as I do so. Whisper powerfully in my ear when I am set to do wrong. Those thin lines and “gray areas”, may I not nudge close to. May all that I do and plan to accomplish serve only to glorify You and not myself. May I exemplify Jesus like tia’s life has been ordained to do- no one else’s. Mine. And may I find joy in You, oh Lord, as I draw closer to the challenge. In Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen.
