We will focus on spiritual growth, wisdom, strength, unity, and a deeper knowledge of God, His purposes, and our call to the lost.

1. In this prayer, we pray for wisdom and revelation to know God better, experience the greatness of His power, and have a deeper understanding of God’s truth. 

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, asking according to Ephesians 1: 17-23  that You, the God of my Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give us, your people, the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You. Open the eyes of our understanding so that your revelation may enlighten us. Help us to know the hope of Your calling and the riches of the glory of Your inheritance in the saints.

Father, may we experience and comprehend the exceeding greatness of Your power toward us as believers, according to the working of Your mighty power.

This is the same power that You worked in Christ when You raised Him from the dead and seated Him at Your right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.

Thank You for putting all things under His feet and giving Him to be the head over all things to the Church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

Lord, we submit ourselves to You and trust in Your power and wisdom. Let us grow in deeper knowledge and understanding of Your truth.  Amen.

2. We are praying to be strengthened with might, to be rooted and grounded in love, and to understand the dimension of Your love.  

Heavenly Father, we bow our knees before You, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named. According to Ephesians 3:14-19, we ask that You grant us, according to the riches of Your glory, to be strengthened with might through Your Spirit in our inner man.

May Christ dwell in our hearts through faith, and may I be rooted and grounded in love.

I pray that we may be able to comprehend with all the saints the width, length, depth, and height of your love, to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge and that we may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Lord, let Your love anchor us, and may we be empowered by Your Spirit to understand more and more of Your immeasurable love for us. Fill us completely with Your presence and transform us into the person You desire us to be. Amen.

3. We are praying to be filled with the knowledge of God’s will through wisdom and understanding so we may live worthy of the Lord and bear fruit in every good work.

Father, in the name of Jesus according to Colossians 1:9-12 we pray that we, your people, may be filled with the full, deep and clear knowledge of Your will in all spiritual wisdom giving us insight into Your ways and purposes and in understanding and discernment of spiritual things.

We pray that we may walk by living and conducting ourselves in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to You and desiring to please You in all things, bearing fruit in every good work and steadily growing and increasing in and by the knowledge of God, with fuller, deeper, and clearer insight, acquaintance, and recognition. 

Lord, we pray that we may be invigorated and strengthened with all power according to the might of Your glory, to exercise every kind of endurance and patience with joy, 

And we thank You, Father, for qualifying us and making us fit to share the inheritance of the saints in the Light. Having delivered and drawn us to Yourself out of the control and the dominion of darkness and having transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of Your love, In Whom we have our redemption.  This we pray in Jesus’ name. Amen

4. Prayer for Evangelism and Outreach

Father, You have called us to share the Gospel- the good news of your righteousness, love and grace. We are carriers of this message, spreading the light of your goodness wherever we go.  We are to make disciples of all nations, teaching them to obey everything You have commanded according to Matt 28:19-20. 

We ask that the voice of each member of Shammah Outreach begin to increasingly reach into the hearts of those near and far with the good news of the love of Jesus Christ. May Your love, hope, and peace flow through every word and every action. Let the gospel we carry come alive with the power to break yokes, heal hearts, and set captives free. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. 

In closing

Father, we thank you for the assurance in 1 John 5: 14-15 which says we are certain that God will hear our prayers when we ask for what pleases him.  And if we know that God listens when we pray, we are sure that our prayers have already been answered. In Jesus name, Amen and Amen

Thank You for Your grace that is sufficient for us to receive all we have asked for in Jesus’s precious name Amen
