*Click on link above to play the anointed music as you read aloud or silently and meditate

This is a special prayer that is comprehensive and supported with scriptures. In actuality it's more than a prayer. It's meant for times of testing and trials, bible study, meditation and worship of the Lord. You will see that It follows the format of the Lord's prayer as Jesus taught us to pray. Best known as the "Our Father" prayer.

The format is great and can be used as a bible study tool. Read it out loud and read the scriptures from your own preferred bible version, if you have it on hand. The added anointed worship music makes for an atmosphere to soak in God's presence as you speak his WORD over your life.

It's a great way to begin your morning or to end your day. So, have a conversation with Abba Father in heaven. He hears and answers our genuine prayers. Amen and Amen Glory to God!!!!

[Psalm 5:3 KJV] 3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct [my prayer] unto thee, and will look up.

Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Father, Yahweh(Jehovah) God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Most High God over all the heavens and the earth I love you and I praise you, with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Help me to love my neighbor as myself. I long to be close to you forever into all eternity. I honor, praise and exalt your name that is above all names.

[Deut 4:39 NIV] 39 Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the LORD is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other.

[Luke 10:27 NIV] 27 He answered, " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"

[Psalm 83:18 KJV] 18 That [men] may know that thou, whose name alone [is] JEHOVAH, [art] the most high over all the earth.

Let your kingdom come on earth, as it is in heaven. Let your kingdom come to transform my life, let your will take place in my life as it is written in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread. Feed my body, soul and spirit with our daily bread, the true manna from heaven as stated at John 6:47-51,

[John 6:47-51 NIV] 47 Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.

50 But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world."

BREAD of HEAVEN, Jesus (Yeshua), you are the Word of God, as it is written at John 1: 1.
[John 1:1 KJV] 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Forgive me for all of my sins, especially sins that may be hidden or done out of ignorance or weakness of the flesh as I forgive all who have sinned against me or ever will. I pray for my enemies and those who curse me. Examine my heart& my mind. Transform my heart & mind to the heart & mind of Christ.

[Matthew 5:44 KJV] 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

Please remove anything unclean, or of darkness if there is any found in me, hidden or otherwise. Thank you Lord for cleansing and purifying me.   I repent this day of my sins and ask that you would help me to walk in righteousness and holiness. Keep me on the straight and narrow path. Help me to resist everything evil and walk in the POWER of the Holy Spirit each and everyday.

I humble myself under your Mighty hand and cast all my cares upon you God Most High. I submit myself to you God and resist all manner of evil. I stand firm on your words recorded at,

[James 4:7-10 NIV] for it is written,

7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.

Lead me not into temptations. Help me to crucify my flesh everyday. I ask for supernatural strength to fast if and when it is your will Lord Jesus for me to fast. I ask that you help me to always be firmly planted and rooted in you Jesus my Lord, Saviour and King. I put on my complete suit of armor as outlined in Ephes 6: 10-18, to be STRONG in you Lord & your mighty power, with the belt of truth around my waist,

the breastplate of righteousness provided by the BLOOD of the Lamb, my feet ready to carry the good news of peace wherever I go, the shield of FAITH which is strengthened by hearing the Word of God to extinguish ALL the arrows of the evil one, the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.

Deliver and protect us all from the evil one. Please have the heavenly host guard and protect any and all ways to me and my home or wherever I go.  I speak in agreement with your word, for it is written that “NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST ME SHALL PROSPER”.

By the power and authority of Jesus (Yeshua) name and his precious blood, all plans, assignments, curses or false accusations spoken against me from the enemy are cancelled and will never take place, will never take root or affect in any way, shape, form or fashion.

Because the BLOOD of the LAMB OF GOD covers me from the top of my head to the soles of my feet and because of your many promises in the bible including those found at Isaiah 54:17, Gal 3:13, Psalm 91 and 2Cor 10:3-4. Therefore, I take refuge in you, the MIGHTY God that you are Lord to fight all of my battles. For it is written:

[2Cor 10:3-5 KJV] 3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but MIGHTY through God to the pulling down of strongholds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

I am forever thankful and grateful that you are a God that CANNOT LIE.

Gal 3:13 SAYS ~

I am redeemed from the curse of the law and walk in the blessings of Abraham.

[Gal 3:13-14 KJV]13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

I am an overcomer! We overcome by the BLOOD of the Lamb. May your Word perform everything it sets out to do and not return to you void or empty. It will ALWAYS fulfill it’s purpose and accomplish your will. I speak complete healing and restoration to every part of my body and every area of my life.

I decree and declare the blessings of Abraham that come by way of the Cross, the blood shed by the Lord’s crucifixion, not only over myself but I decree and declare Abraham’s blessing over my family as well. Every word that I speak over myself and my family in this prayer will prove to be that is in accord with your written Word, with your perfect will and your purpose for our lives Most High God.

For thine is the kingdom, power and glory. Please give me your grace for today, favor and blessings, your authority and power to have victory over the enemy. Show me your glory in some special way everyday, Lord. Let your GLORY surround me and REST upon me that others will see YOU in me. In no way do I want your glory Lord, only that I may see it and experience you with me. Let your HOLY SPIRIT’s anointing REST upon ME and FLOW through me, throughout my HOME and follow me wherever I go.

Please honor your WORD Lord, DRAW me NEAR to you Most High God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Help me to worship you in SPIRIT and TRUTH. Holy Spirit help me, teach me the proper way to PRAY in the SPIRIT. Please MANIFEST your PRESENCE AND ANOINTING in my life.

Grant me heavenly wisdom, fresh revelation and understanding of your WORD. Grant me the supernatural knowledge to know your will, supernatural strength to do your will and the work you’ve called me to do. Rest upon me and all of my family and friends your HEALING hands applying the BLOOD of Jesus (Yeshua) upon us.

I long for all your sons and daughters to be manifested. May your will be done in Israel. I pray for the peace of Jerusalem. I pray for the peace of the United States, the president of the U.S., world peace and all the world leaders. Let your will take place, let it be done according to your plan and purposes. Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha Mashiach) please continue revealing the Father to me in ways I've not discovered yet.

Jesus(Yeshua) surround me with the pure love of God, revealing the true essence of my heavenly Father’s LOVE and the BEAUTY OF YOUR HOLINESS. Help me to understand the dynamics between you and the Father. I open my heart to receive the fullness of the Holy Spirit, the spirit that comes from the Father, the Most High God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Jesus (Yeshua) My King of Kings and Lord of Lords, please dine with me, day or night, anytime, any day, everyday and forever. My dear Lord Jesus (Yeshua), when you knock at the door of my heart, I pray that I will always hear you, you are always welcome to dine with me. Jesus (Yeshua) let me hear your voice ONLY and clearly through your HOLY SPIRIT.

Please never allow me to be deceived by the voice of the enemy, give me clarity and discernment in all things. Always LEAD me to the TRUTH. Help me to always SEEK the TRUTH and not seek out deception nor seek for those who tickle the ear. Help me to always discern the truth and never believe the lies of the enemy. Help me to always recognize doctrines of the enemy.

I resist the devil and every form of evil. I resist, and renounce any seducing spirits, lying spirits, spirits that promote false doctrines   and all spirits of lust, any and all sexual immorality & perversions, bitterness, offense, unforgiveness, anger, contention, divisiveness, hatred, laziness, divination, insecurity, depression, self-hatred, witchcraft, the occult, magic arts, selfishness, fear and confusion.

May the Lord rebuke the devil and all entities of evil. Lord, send your angelic hosts(your army forces) to watch over me, to guard and protect me, my family and friends. Guard and protect every door, window, entrance to me and my home or wherever I go. It is worth repeating, I submit myself completely, and only to you Lord God Most High, God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and to you Jesus(Yeshua) and you the Holy Spirit.

Please fill and baptize me afresh daily with the precious HOLY SPIRIT and the FIRE of the HOLY SPIRIT to maintain the cleansing and purity of my mind, heart, body, soul and spirit. I know and trust that I will hear you Lord(Yeshua) with clarity always simply because I pray daily to be always filled and overflowing with your Holy Spirit, the oil for my lamp. I believe and stand everyday on your written Word, your promise at

[Luke 11:11-13 NIV]  11 "Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"

I thank you heavenly Father in heaven that you would never hand us a snake or scorpion. In other words the Holy Spirit is not something we should be afraid of because you are more than good. You are perfect in all your ways. Grant me gifts of your Holy Spirit as you deem fitting for the furtherance of the kingdom work to the saving of lost souls and the edification of the body of Christ. But only for your GLORY. I renounce any and all spirits of pride, competition and selfish ambition.

Heavenly Father Yahweh (Jehovah) God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, lead me in the way of your RIGHTEOUSNESS, HOLINESS and TRUTH through your HOLY SPIRIT found in Christ Jesus (Yeshua Ha Mashiach. May your will and your word be clarified in me as a light. I walk not in darkness, for I am a child of the day, awake and alert watching for your return. I pray that you will find me worthy to escape the things coming upon this world.

[1Thess 5:5-8 KJV] 5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. 6 Therefore let us not sleep, as [do] others; but let us watch and be sober. 7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. 8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

The Spirit and the bride both say come. Come Lord Jesus! To you be ALL the Glory for now and forever. In Jesus (Yeshua) Mighty name I do pray. Amen

Morning Manna with Love ~ Prayer ~ How to get our prayers answered by God

See how God clothes flowers so beautifully. Surely he will take care of our needs. [Matthew 6:28, 33 NIV] 28 "And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. ... 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well".............

Who doesn't want their prayers answered by God? Yes we all do, right? However we must consider that prayer is much more than petitioning God for something we need or want. Therefore, what exactly is prayer and what does it mean to say we have a prayer life? Someone shared some information with me on prayer and I found it is useful information that we can all benefit from that I will share with you. This information will answer the questions I have posed here and more.

ANSWERED PRAYER
When a baby is born, there is a suspenseful moment when all those in attendance watch eagerly for the newborn baby to begin breathing. In the same way, when a person is born again he begins to sustain a spiritual life through prayer. A wise man, Rowland Hill, once said, “Prayer is the breath of a newborn soul, and there can be no life without it.” Accord- ingly when people speak of having a prayer life they should realize that prayer is not just a feature of spiritual life, but the thing that keeps spiritual life going.

In prayer you are talking to your Father-God in heaven, thanking Him, praising Him, blessing Him, loving Him, and asking His help for yourself and others in times of need. Meanwhile, He desires to speak love and encouragement to you. Sometimes it’s hard to get past feelings that question whether God hears your prayers, or that you can really hear His replies. The following keys to vital prayer will help you know that your prayers are heard and answered.

WHAT IS PRAYER?
Prayer is a two-way conversation with God. It is the most intimate relationship with the Creator you can have. In prayer, the depths of your spirit are in communion with the depths of the Spirit of God. Out of this fellowship can come instruction, guidance and suggestions for new focal points in your prayers.

Often when we pray we make use of our rational minds. There are times when we can only pray in the Spirit, such as when we don’t know how to pray about a specific situation. At times like these, the Apostle Paul says, “The Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words” (Romans 8:26). These groanings may take the form of a prayer language in which we speak to God directly in a language that only He understands.

HOW SHOULD I PRAY?
When Jesus’ disciples asked Him how to pray, He gave them what we know as the Lord’s Prayer (Mathew 6:9- 13). As you meditate on each phrase, you’ll see how the Lord’s Prayer touches on each fact of our lives and God’s character. It is a wonderful complete outline for your prayers and a good model to build on.

As we pray The Lord’s Prayer, we begin by acknowledging God’s sovereign fatherhood when we say, “Our Father, who art in heaven.” Then, we adore His name. Because His name represents His nature, we praise His very being when we say the next phrase, “Hallowed be Thy name.”
Next, we must be concerned about the extension of His kingdom. We must care that people should come to know Him and submit to Him, so we say, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”

Then, we turn to our personal concerns and ask God for our daily bread, not only literal bread, but whatever we need to carry out His work. This prayer is for His daily provision for our immediate needs, and so we pray, “Give us this day our daily bread.”

Next comes a prayer of release from sin and guilt, the prayer of confession, repentance, and forgiveness; “And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.” Here we are asking God for His grace in our relationships with other people, because His forgiveness of us and our forgiveness of others go hand in hand. If we are going to expect answered prayer, we must be willing to forgive other people, even as God is willing to forgive us.

Finally, we seek God’s protection from temptation and evil. “And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil.” We ask Him to keep us walking in His way so that we might be covered by His power and anointing and might not be susceptible to evil influences.Another way to pray is to organize your prayer time according to the different modes of prayer. The first part should be praise of our heavenly Father, followed by intercession for the needs of others.

Another way to pray is to organize your prayer time according to the different modes of prayer. The first part should be praise of our heavenly Father, followed by intercession for the needs of others. Then, in prayers of petition, you ask for your own needs to be met. All prayer should close with praise and thanksgiving to our Father, who out of His love for us provides answers to our prayers. Conclude prayer with praise like Jesus concluded The Lord’s Prayer saying, “For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever Amen” (Matthew 6:13b).

HOW CAN I KNOW THAT GOD WILL ANSWER MY PRAYER?
The Bible overflows with God’s repeated promises to hear and answer His children’s appeals. “And this is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him” (1 John 5:14, 15). To pray according to God’s will means to pray in a way that is consistent with the principles in His Word.

The Bible shows us that a righteous person’s prayers will be answered: “The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much” (James 5:16). But righteousness means a lot more than clean living. It means depending on Jesus Christ for answers to every problem you face. The Old Testament prophet Elijah was one such right- eous man; “He prayed earnestly that it might not rain; and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the sky poured rain, and the earth produced its fruit” (James 5:17, 18). If you need to call forth showers of blessing in a dry and barren situation, remember that the key is righteousness, your position according to God’s promises.

As you commit your requests to Him, believe that His will is being done according to the greatness of His power and wisdom. Don’t underestimate God’s ability to make a way for you when one doesn’t seem possible. With our limited understanding and abilities, we often forget His boundless wisdom and power.

Concerning faith, be like Abraham when you pray. The Bible says of Abraham, ”With respect to the promise of God, he (Abraham) did not waver in unbelief, but grew strong in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully assured that what He had promised, He was able also to perform” (Romans 4:20, 21).

Finally, Jesus told us to pray in His name (John 14:13, 14). He is the Architect, Creator, and Sustainer of all that is, and He promises in His words to the disciples: “All things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they shall be granted you” (Mark 11:24).

No obstacle is too great to withstand His power:

“Truly I say to you, whoever says to this moun- tain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea’, and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it shall be granted him” (Mark 11:23). Begin on a regular basis to pray about the biggest obstacle you face, and com- mand that particular personal mountain to move by the power of the name of Jesus.

HOW CAN I KNOW GOD’S WILL?
God’s will is best understood through a combination of different sources, sources that balance and complement one another and protect the believer from errors. The first source is the Bible. If you are familiar with the Bible and can interpret it and understand it clearly, you will know the will of God, because He has laid it out for us there.

Another major source for knowing the will of God is prayer, in which you communicate with God and learn what pleases Him. The Bible says, “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts...” (Colossians 3:15). That inner peace that you experience when you are in communion with Him (or the lack of it) can show you whether you are praying according to God’s will.

God also reveals His will for us through godly counselors, people whose wisdom and walk with the Lord you can trust. We may sometimes discern His will through circumstances that seem to favor or hinder a course of action; but remember, in whatever way God reveals His will to you, it must agree with His Word, the Bible. He will not oppose Him- self, “for He cannot deny Himself” (2 Timothy 2:13).

Once we have learned God’s will, we must stay in it, abiding in the Lord Jesus who said, “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it shall be done for you” (John 15:7). We cannot abide in Jesus and at the same time keep holding on to unbelief, unforgiveness, resentment, or bitterness. Such sins will keep us from that intimate relationship that He desires with us, and they will cloud our ability to know His will (Psalm 66:18).

WHAT ABOUT UNANSWERED PRAYER?
Nowhere in His Word does God promise that all of His answers will be instantaneous. Unfortunately, far too many people measure God’s response by what they are immediately able to see with their natural capacities. We must wait on the Lord if need be.

“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1). Faith requires we expect an answer to prayer whether we see it immediately or not. Many people have become disappointed and discouraged because they did not see the answers to their prayers at the time when they thought they should.

If an answer is delayed, don’t doubt. Doubting only undermines our ability to see any of our prayers answered. The Bible says of one who prays, “But let him ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man expect that he will receive anything from the Lord” (James 1:6, 7).

Many times we think that God has failed to answer a prayer and that He has not honored His Word, when actually He is working out something in our lives far greater than we had imagined possible. We must be patient and bear in mind that His ways are far beyond ours: “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways” (Isaiah 55:9).

IS IT PERMISSIBLE TO PRAY MORE THAN ONCE FOR SOMETHING?
Some people teach that if we pray once, that is sufficient, and any prayer beyond that is evidence of a lack of faith. This is not consistent with God’s Word. Jesus taught in Luke, chapter 18, that at all times we ought to pray and not lose heart. He used the parable of the unrighteous judge and the helpless widow who kept on pleading with him for legal protection. Because of her persistence, the judge granted her request. In the same way, Jesus taught that the constant cries of God’s children are heard and their prayers answered. This is because each time we pray about a situation, we pray in faith, believing God hears us and is responding to our prayer.

Jesus also said, “Ask and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it shall be opened” (Matthew 7:7- 8). We are also told to “pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Rather than ask if it’s alright to pray again and again about a thing, perhaps we should ask if it’s right to ever stop praying about it until we receive an answer. Through our constant believing prayer, we not only receive answers, but we acquire a growing maturity in our life in Christ.

YOU CAN BREATHE EASIER
Now that you understand God’s desire for you to talk with Him constantly and His promise to answer your prayers, you can start praying with boldness and with the confidence that right now He is revealing answers to the dilemmas and uncertainties you face. Now your spirit will begin growing strong and vigorous with the deep, life-giving breath of prayer. God is supplying what you lack and honoring your petitions according to His will. So, as you praise Him in your time of pray- er, remember to praise Him as the One who hears and answers. Remember to give thanks often that He is not far away but near you, providing for you, fighting your battles, and directing your choices.
