MICHELLE. This is the person I am praying for today. Let me tell you a little bit about Michelle, she is a creative, very opinionated woman who I met on the streets of Santa Barbara a few months ago. We met because I felt God pushing me to go talk to her while walking by her one day, so I did it reluctantly. Since then I see her everywhere, and we have become friends through our encounters and God has really given me love for this woman. She has a very skewed view of the Bible and what it really means. She knows so much scripture and quotes it to me ALL the time, but she doesn't really know the true meaning of it. Some may call her crazy but I am beginning to realize that the enemy is really at work, confusing the truth she has hidden in her heart. It really makes me sad for her, at times I feel like there is no hope and that talking to her and telling her I disagree is pointless. My faith is so small so Father, help me in my unbelief. The God I serve is bigger than my weak faith, he can work even through my weakness. So I am choosing to trust that he will change Michelle. She is his daughter, fearfully and wonderfully made, she is in his eyes, BEAUTIFUL. This dirty homeless women who makes clothes out of old dirty towels from garbage cans is a beautiful daughter of the King of all creation. I believe that He wants to bring her clarity and wants to show her the truth and want's to reveal the freedom she has in living for him. So Father free Michelle in the powerful name of Jesus. I pray against confusion in the name of Jesus, Father protect your daughter free her from the confusion of the evil one. Give her eyes to see you and to see your truth. Remove the scales from her eyes Lord, show your great, powerful, wonderful love to my sister. She is lonely Father, Holy Spirit be so present with her right now! I don't know where she is but overwhelm her with your unfailing, never ending love. Break the chains that hold her in Jesus' name. Set her free God, she is in bondage, she fears death. Show her today that in you and because of you there is no fear in death, there is no fear of this world. Since I have been praying for Michelle this morning, I keep thinking about Jesus casting the demons out of the crazy man in Mark 5. Lord restore Michelle's mind to her, clear what has been clouded, free her in the holy name of Jesus. Cast out what is confusing her in Jesus name. Please Lord restore what she has lost.
We decided to double up on countries today:)
Country: American Samoa
American Samoa is a small country that thrives on the catching and canning of Tuna.
The average income is roughly $9,000, and with hurricane’s and the remoteness of the country, it’s hard to expand economic growth.
What to pray for:
1) A rise of the occult
· While there is freedom of religion and there is a growth of cults, many of them actually happening from within churches, especially Mormon. Pray against this rise and for sincerity within churches.
What I'm praying for:
Father provide for your people. Provide what each person needs each day. You know what they need most, please wow them and surprise them with that knowledge. Show them more of who you are through your provision. Bring people to you through your miraculous and loving provision. You are good and you are love. I pray against the occult in Jesus' name, Lord keep people from seeing good and hope in the occult. Don't let the occult be attractive to people, instead bring believers to show how much hope is in following you. Lord I pray for the churches to be rooted in your word and your truth. Place your angels around those churches. Protect them from confusion Father, don't let the enemy twist your words.
Country: Andorra
A small country in the heart of the mountains bordering Spain and France.
(It’s kind of just smooshed there between them.)
What to pray for:
1) A Hold of Materialism
· The country is a port for duty-free sales and therefore draws many rich, business style financiers. It has become based on material objects and riches. It is actually a very wealthy country with most of the economy based on tourism
2) Backburner Faith
· While most of the country claims to be catholic, there are few who truly seek God with their lives. Many are becoming more and more superstitious, inviting seers and fortune tellers to speak into their lives. Once again, pray against the power of the occult and for a biblical foundation for living.
What I'm praying for:
"You cannot serve both God and money." Lord I pray for this country that knows of you, that they would choose to live for you. Don't let the wealth of Andorra consume them, I pray for a spirit of generosity among the people there. I pray for people who will read your word and obey, that their wealth would be used to send out missionaries or to help the needy. Thank you that there is freedom in Andorra, I pray against the occult Lord I know that the enemy is strong and at work but you are so so much stronger. Come against the occult with fire, show your creation that you are King.
