Ephesians 4:29 (KJV)
Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, my redeemer and salvation, I thank you for giving me a voice with which to speak, from which to share Your word and truth. Let my words only spread goodness and grace, and seek not to injure or insult those around me, for Your gospel is one of compassion and hope, and one which deserves to be echoed all around the world. In the Awesome, Magnificent, and Powerful name of Jesus, AMEN 🙏🏾

Nehemiah 1:11 (KJV)
O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who desire to fear thy name: and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man. For I was the king's cupbearer.

Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, hear my prayer for those around me, for servants such as I, who have come from all over the world, united in our faith and trust in You. I pray for Your continual guidance for them, for giving them strength daily to serve in both defending Your name, as well as worshipping You. For I wish not to be selfish, nor to become distracted within my own desires, but wish for the greater good of glorifying Your word and truth with all my brothers and sisters. In the Marvelous, Magnificent, and Powerful name of Jesus, AMEN 🙏🏾

Hebrews 10:39 (KJV)
But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, Lord Almighty, and my Creator, praise and glory be to Your mercy and love in granting us the gift of choosing Your love. Give me strength as I invite those who do not yet sing Your name to join in Your family. Grant them the gift and blessings of Your sweet and everlasting life. In the Marvelous, Magnificent, and Powerful name of Jesus, AMEN 🙏🏾

Psalms 2:11-12 (KJV)
Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, spare us wrath and sin, and grant us in its stead devotion to thee. Help us not anger or trespass against You Lord, but respect and fear Your power. May we be blessed to know You, our Heavenly Father, to whom we give our trust and faith in order to protect and serve. Almighty God and Father, I praise Your power and Your holy name. Amen. In the Marvelous, Magnificent, and Powerful name of Jesus AMEN 🙏🏾
