Daily Prayers
Prayer of Encouragement
Sandi Ellis
Join Sandi in a prayer of freedom, healing, and joy—for yourself, your family, and those you love. Prayer is the lifeline of every believer, the way we connect to the very heart of God. Scripture reminds us: “Call to Me and I will answer you” (Jeremiah 33:3). It also assures us that “the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective."
Cleansing Prayer
Lord Jesus Christ,
Thank You for entrusting me with the privilege of connecting with others in my work and ministry. (1 Timothy 1:12). Today I release myself and all those I’ve connected with—clients, friends, and associates—into Your loving hands.
By the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God (Ephesians 6:17), I cut off every unhealthy attachment, defilement, or burden that may have come through my conversations, connections, or ministry this day. I bless each person and send them forth in Your peace (Numbers 6:24–26), asking that You seal the work of grace accomplished in their lives for Your glory (Philippians 1:6).
Wash me now, Lord, with living water (Ezekiel 36:25; John 7:38). Cleanse me from any residue of defilement and restore the strength that has been poured out in service (Isaiah 40:31). Cover me in Your rest and refresh my soul (Matthew 11:28–29).
Hide me under the shadow of Your wings (Psalm 91:1,4). Blind the eyes of the enemy that he cannot find me (Psalm 27:5). Surround me, my family, and all that You have entrusted to my care with Your divine protection and peace (2 Thessalonians 3:3).
And in all that I have done today, may every word and deed bring glory to Your holy Name (1 Corinthians 10:31).
In the mighty Name of Jesus Christ I pray, Amen.
Restoration Prayer
God is the Restorer of ruins and the One who makes rivers in the desert and gardens in waste places. His Word promises to bring life out of desolation, to turn ashes into beauty, and to restore what has been lost. This prayer is both a cry of faith and a declaration of His power to turn death into life, shame into double honor, and loss into overflowing abundance.
Prayer for Prodigals
The Bible shows God’s heart for the lost and wandering. Jesus told the parable of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11–32) to reveal the Father’s longing to welcome His children home, and He said there is rejoicing in heaven when even one sinner repents (Luke 15:7). Scripture calls us to stand in the gap, believing His promises to save our children (Isaiah 49:25) and to draw them by His Spirit (John 6:44). When we pray for prodigals, we join God’s redemptive work and release His Word over their lives.
Prayer of Protection
As part of God’s covenant with His people, one of the greatest promises we carry is His protection. Scripture assures us that the Lord Himself is our refuge, fortress, and shield. This prayer of protection weaves together His Word to help you stand confidently in the covering and safety He provides.
Prayer for Israel
As believers, we are called to stand watch and intercede for Israel, knowing that God has bound Himself by covenant to Abraham and his descendants, declaring,
“I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you” (Genesis 12:3). All believers in the Lord Jesus are descendants of Abraham. The Lord warns in Joel 3:2 that the nations will be judged for dividing His land, and He commands us in Psalm 122:6 to “pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” As watchmen on the walls (Isaiah 62:6–7), our prayers align with His purposes for protection, wisdom for leaders, the restraint of evil, and the coming of His peace. In this critical hour, lifting our voices for Israel is not optional—it is obedience to God’s Word and partnership with His unfolding plan of redemption.
Prayer for Living in Joy and God's Glory
This daily prayer is an invitation to step into God’s presence with confidence, peace, and joy. It’s designed to help you align your heart with His will, receive His guidance, and walk in the assurance that every moment of your day is ordered by His hand. As you pray these words, you’ll declare biblical truths over your life, surrender your own agenda to His, and carry the atmosphere of Heaven into every situation. Let this prayer become a rhythm of living fully in God’s glory and joy as He directs your steps.
Prayer for Marriage
Marriage is one of God’s most sacred covenants—a living reflection of His love, unity, and grace. This prayer invites couples to draw near to the heart of heaven, aligning their relationship with God’s purpose and presence. It speaks to the power of oneness, protection, and spiritual alignment, calling each spouse to walk in humility, grace, and truth. Rooted in Scripture and guided by the wisdom of Spirit-led teaching, this prayer helps couples build a home where Christ reigns, love heals, and covenant strength overcomes every storm.
