A Prayer for your neighbourhood

Prayer for your neighbourhood

Lord Your Word says you have many names.

Your Word says that you are Jehovah Jireh – God our provider. Will you not be the provider for the people of our community. Providing jobs, providing food and clothing, providing enough to live and enough to give, Lord. Lord we invite you to come, be our provider – Jehovah Jireh.

Lord, Your Word says that you are Jehovah Rapha, God our healer. Lord, even as Your Word says, Lord, will you not heal all the diseases in our area, any coughs and colds, any viruses, and any quarrels or disagreements, Lord. Lord, we invite you to come, be our healer – Jehovah Rapha.

Lord, Your Word says that you are Jehovah Shalom, God our peace. Lord, as your name implies,  you are the God who brings us peace, gives us peace, and keeps us at peace. Peace in our hearts, minds, and spirit, and peace with all those around us. Lord, we invite you to come and be God our peace, Jehovah Shalom

Lord, Your Word says that you are Jehovah Nissi, God our banner, looking over those who have no other protection but you. Lord, we invite you to be our banner, Jehovah Nissi.

Lord, Your Word says you are Jehovah Tsidkenu, God our Righteousness. We can never be righteous in our own standing, yet by your grace and mercy you make us Righteous through the Blood of Jesus. Lord, we invite you today to be God our Righteousness, Jehovah Tsidkenu.

Finally Lord, Your Word says you are Emmanuel, God with us. Oh, what a privilege, Lord, to think that you came from your place in Glory just for us – to be with us and to pay the price to save us. Thank you Lord, will you not stay with us today and always as Emmanuel – our God with and among us.

You Lord, the Lord God Almighty, are our provider, our healer, our peace, our banner, our righteousness, with us – all these things just for us.  Bless our neighbourhood Lord with all your gifts. Lift up your people Lord, raise them, promote them, prosper them, heal them, heal our land. Do not let a single one of your people around here fall away Lord. Bring salvation to all who will listen Lord – and if they wont listen, turn their heads and their hearts anyway.

Thank you Lord

In the Precious Name of Jesus
