Give Me A Heart To Serve
Simply The Prayer Pod
For those who find it difficult to pray, not always finding the words to say... like I, a lot of times still do. But it’s okay. For those just needing to hear and have agreement in prayer, it’s easier to do it together. Or those who just can’t seem to find the time, just listen and pray while you’re commuting or when you have a free moment to spare. The prayers are sometimes raw, sometimes focused on a particular issue or subject. Either way, God still cares and hears us.
So, are heavy burdens weighing you down? Feeling sad, angry or lonely? Or testings, troubles and temptations getting you into a conundrum (a complicated problem)? All these can have us feeling hopeless at times, but God will hear you even if you can’t speak the words you want to say. They don’t have to be so eloquent or flow smoothly and effortlessly. The Lord knows what you mean. He understands our heart cries. Even our groans...Romans 8:26-27 says, ”In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.” (NIV) ”And the Father Who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is sayin, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God’s own will.” (NLT)
So if you hear me humin’, singin’ or even groaning, don’t think it strange. I’m just praying in the Spirit. Please don’t be afraid or taken aback if you hear a little excitement in my voice, I’m just caught up in the joy, goodness or power of the Holy Spirit. I Hope you’re uplifted and encouraged in some way throughout our times of prayer. Now join me as I join my heart with the Lord’s heart this morning..Let’s Pray!
God be with you until we meet again. Grace and Peace God’s Beloved!

What is compassion really? Is it the same as sympathy or empathy; feeling sorry for a person? I believe it's all of those and more. Overall, it's a strong love that feels and acts in accordance with the sorrow, pain or suffering someone else is experiencing. Let's see and pray what the Word of God says about it. Moreover, how Jesus, Who is the Word of God expresses it towards us. Lord, give me a heart of compassion.
Let's Pray!

Give me a forgiving heart. That is our prayer today. It is a command from the Lord that we forgive one another. And I don't know about you, but I find myself having to do this over and over. Sometimes with the same people, family, church folk, friends etc. But as I grow and learn and my heart is being transformed and conformed to God's will so that I am becoming more like Him, I am gaining a divine and even practical understanding of why it is necessary. In short, we can't have a right relationship with God if we don't have one with the people we see face to face.

Hi, this is Cher and I'm ready to pray, stand in agreement and intercede for any and all who join us and listen in. For the next few weeks, I'll be praying for the Lord to conform and transform our hearts. We need our hearts strengthened. We are taking in too much of the world's garbage. Especially by way of negative news, negative social media and we are even dirtying ourselves by sending and receiving unwholesome communication out of our mouths about and with each other. So let's pray and ask the Lord to purify our hearts. Remember what the Lord Jesus said in Matthew 5:8 - Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God!
This weeks meditative scripture: Hebrews 9:13-14

God is still in control y'all. Be assured that we can rest in Him. Even in those situational issues that never seem to end. Even when those fiery darts just won't stop flying your way. Keep trusting that the Lord will take care of everything in His timing. Nothing and no one can thwart His plans! And remember, ultimately, evil cannot destroy you unless you let it have you. So be still and know and live and pray...

God is in control beloved people! This week's prayer is raw, but slower paced. The Holy Ghost was praying differently this particular day. So for those who have an ear to hear, hear what the Spirit is saying to you today! God nor the Holy Spirit is limited in their power. So whenever you're praying and making your requests known before God, understand that your concerns, petitions and cries are not falling on deaf ears and nothing is too hard for our God.
If you have a prayer request, leave it in the comments and someone will pray for you. Let's share and like as well as subscribe so we can all lift one another up.

A Call To Prayer
I am simply a lay person in the church in service to the Lord. I participate in ministries of helps and intercessory prayer according to scripture: 1 Corinthians 12, 1 Timothy 2:1 - 4 and Ephesians 3:14-20. The word of God tells us to pray with and for one another (James 5:16). I believe the Lord led me to do this podcast because many people do not feel adequate enough or are comfortable praying. Those feelings are common even abroad the body of Christ, but I'm gonna pray anyway! Although we are to go to our Elders in the church for prayer when needed, many feel isolated thinking they have no one to turn to. Others have no church home. For those this is a safe place for prayer. I welcome you to join any time. God does not respect one person over another. He is waiting to hear from everybody. He wants to be a part of your life, relating to you as you engage with Him. Spend time with Him and you will soon realize He has been with you all along and He answers prayer. Jesus is the ultimate intercessor between us and the Father. Let's Pray!
