Prayer Day 2026

It was wonderful to pray that strongholds be broken, and that territory be removed! It’s also great to pray that spiritual leaders will rise up and just as important to pray for encouragers!!

Today as I prayed I was reminded of the chaos and uncertainty we face in today’s world. Nothing is certain or is secure for our hearts and the enemy is using that uncertainty to shake our foundations. He’s using it to test our resolve. We will keep our resolve and keep our minds on him! We will trust in the Lord! God is our Strength! This world is full of idols and distractions that the enemy will happily use to destroy us. In times like these we must show resolve and stand up for our God by keeping our eyes fixed on him and fully trusting in his plan!

n

n“You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. Trust in the Lord forever, For in YAH, the Lord, is everlasting strength.”

n‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭26‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

God moved in my heart especially to pray for certain relatives who either don’t know Him or who are far away from fellowship with the Lord.

nAnd God encouraged my heart that he is powerful and certainly able to accomplish more that I could even ask for. Thank you Lord Jesus!

Micah 6:6-8

nWith what shall I come before the LORD,

nAnd bow myself before the High God?

nShall I come before Him with burnt offerings,

nWith calves a year old?

n7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams,

nTen thousand rivers of oil?

nShall I give my firstborn for my transgression,

nThe fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?

n8 He has shown you, O man, what is good;

nAnd what does the LORD require of you

nBut to do justly,

nTo love mercy,

nAnd to walk humbly with your God

The Lord had me stuck on this!

n

nFather I pray for: Your People to Stand in Truth – May we know Your Word and stand

nupon it.

n“Your Word is truth” (John 17:17)

n

nLord, thank you for the truth and help us stand firmly in it.

It’s amazing what prayer can do! It’s always easy to say “just trust God” but to do it when everything seems to stack up against you can be a very difficult thing to do. But what God has been revealing to me the past couple years is that you may not understand now but someday to will! God ways are higher than our ways. It’ll all make sense in the end and it’s such an amazing thing to experience. So whatever you’re going through, stay encouraged and know that God is with you and will complete the good work He’s started in you!

The Lord was stirring me up to plead for revival, and as I prayed — I kept thinking about the posture of Ezekiel’s heart when asked: “can these dry bones live?” Yes they can! I felt a particular burden to pray for my past and present teammates. Thank you Jesus

Grateful for the opportunity to share my heart boldly praying for our country, my family and community and the local body of believers and those you don’t yet know Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:17-18.

Thank you for opportunity to come to your throne room, my God, my Father, my savior.

n

nThank you for the opportunity to pray for so many people, known and unknown.

n

nIt all starts with me…please abide in me, get rid of any hindrances and search my soul oh Lord….direct my steps and pray that I’m in lock step with your will for my life.

Father, Send your Spirit to my local community in Melbourne Florida and all of its outreaches to the world. May people be strengthened, strongholds be broken and your love and grace saturate the land.

n

n“may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.”

n‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭3‬:‭18‬-‭19‬ ‭

nAmen

As I was praying this morning, I was just reminded of the faithfulness of God and the Power of His Spirit.

n

nIn Acts, the last command Jesus gives to

nhis disciples is to stay in Jerusalem and wait for the Spirit. He knew they could do nothing without the strength and guidance of the Holy Spirit.

n

nOnce they received the Holy Spirit though, I am challenged by the boldness and urgency of the disciples! They walk in step with the Spirit in compete boldness.

n

nFather, make us bold for you in all situations!

n

n

The ministry doesn’t look the same season to season and that’s OK. God gives you favor and open doors accordingly. He brings you in contact with people that are hurting and provides you with the tools to help bring them in alignment with God‘s truth so we thank you God for your presence. Your presence is all that we need. You said you would never leave us, that you would never forsake us. You are in the midst of this prayer day focus, helping us to align the sports community with his purposes. Hallelujah!

Isaiah 55 stirred my heart and my prayers this morning. May The Word go out, brining more people into His kingdom and also stirring the hearts of His people to live with hearts of grace, compassion, and a longing for intimacy- all for His glory!

n““Is anyone thirsty? Come and drink— even if you have no money! Come, take your choice of wine or milk— it’s all free!

nSeek the Lord while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near. Let the wicked change their ways and banish the very thought of doing wrong. Let them turn to the Lord that he may have mercy on them. Yes, turn to our God, for he will forgive generously.

n It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it. Where once there were thorns, cypress trees will grow. Where nettles grew, myrtles will sprout up. These events will bring great honor to the Lord’s name; they will be an everlasting sign of his power and love.””

n‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭55‬:‭1‬, ‭6‬-‭7‬, ‭11‬, ‭13‬ ‭

n

I felt an urgency from the Lord as I prayed, that the time is short on this earth, that we (I personally!) need to stop wasting the time and to be about my Father’s business.

n“Besides this you know the time, that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed. The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light.”

n‭‭Romans‬ ‭13‬:‭11‬-‭12‬ ‭

nSuch a time of conviction to my own soul this morning. Thank you, Lord, for your mercy to us. Even when we are faithless, you abide FAITHFUL!

Grateful for the opportunity to pray and feel God's presence. coming to you lord with expectations of miracles and the praise reports as we unite in your name.

nmay we always abide in you.

Today I prayed for my Family. I prayed that I can be the spiritual leader in my house hold and my community. I prayed that I have the courage to stand tall in faith and impact others. I thanked God for his blessings and how he has come through for me every time even against the odds. I thanked God for giving his son Jesus for my sins and coming for the broken. I prayed that Faith will overcome fear. I prayed for all of those around the world that are lost that they will encounter His presence and be dramatically changed. I told God that I want more of him in my life and he told me to open my Heart. Amen!

Do not be anxious about anything! Do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself!

nPut on the whole armor of God and know that His plan is bigger than anything we can fathom. Trust Him and find peace as He carries you in the palm of His hand.

n

nWhat an honor to pray with all of you today!

My heart was stirred this morning (again) for the lost! Praying that the Lord will continue to give boldness to His people to not only witness but also disciple! May the Church come out of her bubble and love people by sharing the good news of Jesus Christ and then link arms with one another to teach, help, and actively pursue disciples! And may I continue to surrender to the King of the Universe!

n

nWhat a gift of time this morning in devoted prayer!

God has impressed on me . That if we come repentant in heart he will hear us when we call. We will see a change in America and our families , it will be gradual , as long as his people press in and continue to come to him and intercede on their behalf. We are called to stand in the gap for all people and in the power of the Holy Spirit things will and can change. Thank you Father for such a time as this to use pure encouragement to pioneer this movement of prayer for all people around America .

Today as I prayed I recognized that I have been resisting God's plan for me and realized that I need to surrender and focus on gratitude and the countless blessings in my life. I am thankful for the Lord's protection and intended path for me.

I love starting off prayers by giving thanks and praise. It's so easy to think of our troubles and personal issues, but there is so much to give thanks to God. It made me think of the pain in my shoulder, but giving thanks to God that I can get out of bed and still do so many things that I can take for granted. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 says, "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, GIVE THANKS in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." ESV

This time in prayer was such a powerful reminder for me of the importance of renewing my mind daily in God’s Word. Each morning, I’ve been intentional about listing what I’m grateful for and praying for others as a way to guard my heart—but I realize I haven’t been making the time to truly get into His Word the way I should.

nWhat an honor it is to be part of something so incredible. God is moving in a mighty way across our nation, and it’s undeniable.

nThank you, Pure Encouragement, for your faithfulness—believing, leading, standing in the Spirit, and coordinating such an important event.

nGod bless

Our prayers matter! Thank you to taking the time to pray!

Today as I bowed before the Lord and prayed. My heart was broken for all the violence and turmoil going on in the world. The Lord reminded me that He is in control and that this is His battle. He is faithful and goes before all His saints. I prayed for our soldiers, and those brave young men risking their lives. For Israel and America’s leaders to do God’s will. For those who are Lost and spiritually blind to see and accept Christ as Lord and Savior. The Lord reminded me of all His blessings and grace that He so richly gives every day to this country. For the persecuted Christians in Iran and all over the world. It is such a privilege to pray and not hide or fear exposure or possible death for our faith. It was a great honor to go with others before the throne of God in belief knowing the Lord loves and will hear His people. ??

God hears all of our prayers! Thank you Lord!

What tea pressed on my heart was the Living Word of God that we can read, touch, share and trust in the truths that are written in the Bible. God’s faithfulness and steadfast love to see us through each day. I praise Jesus for Pure Encouragement and the lives that have been changed for eternity. In all things we say Holy is the Lord.

What an amazing way to wrap up my day.

nBeen thinking through out the day of all the people that have been praying for our country and the amazing ministries serving our great God. It’s such an amazing opportunity to be able to know that others are praying alongside, lifting up the name Jesus, for each other and our specific communities. May God bless each, and every one of our communities, our ministries and our own lives so that we may go out and make disciples of all nations.

It being Lenten Season with Holy Week starting in two days, which leads up to Easter, I have been meditating on the sacrifice of Jesus for me. His shed blood broke the power of sin and Satan. I cannot comprehend the depth of His sacrifice, the depth of His love. I bow down in worship and adoration. It was a beautiful time of prayer. What a reminder to spend concentrated time in prayer more often, and not just when someone asks me to sign up for a time slot.

Lord thank you for the opportunity to pause and recognize your faithfulness! Thank you for the blessing of family, friends, meaningful work, effective ministry and the most wonderful spouse to share on this endeavor. Thank you for reminding me of my peers in local business,who are honoring you by their work and their testimonies! Thank you for Godly politicians in Bakersfield who honor you publicly. Thank you for the encouragement they bring! Please be with me now as I bless my family this evening. Thank you for salvation, for breath and life. Thank you that I am saved, loved and significant.

Thank you Lord for an extraordinary Prayer Day. Over 200 people calling on the Name of Jesus from every state in the USA and 8/10 Canadian Provinces. Lord I’m honored to be a part of the Body of Christ and to lock arms with so many amazing brothers and sisters in Christ. Please bless every prayer warrior who prayed today and help us be strong and courageous, full of Your Spirit and great faith, walking in step with You and in Your power. We bless and thank You Lord. We declare our dependence on You. Apart from You we can do nothing. And may You move in POWER in 2026 Father in this North American land. In Jesus Name Amen!

nI loved reading all of these posts tonight after I prayed. I’m honored to serve Jesus alongside all of you. My soul is encouraged! Praise God for a great Prayer Day.
