Prayer Works Morning Devotion: November 7, 2025

Thus Says The Lord-Who God Says He Is, His Commandments and Promises

"1 Thessalonians 5:17 - Pray Without Ceasing - Friday Morning Prayer"

---

Good morning, everyone. A pleasant day to you all. The only regret I have this morning is that I cannot see you, but by faith, I know you're there. I can feel your presence. I can feel your spirit. I can feel your agreement.  

So before we start, I just want to open in prayer. Before I do that, I want to thank Pastor Zee and Pastor April for the opportunity once more for allowing me to break bread with you guys. What are we having breakfast?  

This is breakfast time. And for all those that are listening, I thank God for you. I thank God for your spirit of agreement. I thank God for the spirit of unity, and I thank God for your desire for the things of God.  

So, Father, this morning we give you praise. We live to praise you. We live to worship you. We live to honor you. We live to give you thanks. We come before you this morning with grateful hearts, just thanking you, God, for the breath of life, thanking you for your grace and your mercy.  

We thank you for the help of the Holy Spirit. Father, we confess apart from you, we can do nothing. In you we live and move and have our beings. 

So we thank you this morning for another opportunity just to be with the saints just to encourage each other to remind us that God is and He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Just to remind ourselves that he exists he is Lord Jesus is king he is omnipotent and he reigns forever.  

So no matter what is happening around us we know that the Lord God omnipotent reigns. Lord I give this Prayer works line to you and all that are on this line this morning in the name of Jesus what I'm about to say I give it to you.  

I ask you to sanctify it. I ask you to anoint the ears of the listenings. God, that the word that they hear would not only be hearers, we will be doers. Let it be a word that someone needed to hear this morning to be encouraged. Lord, I decrease, you increase. You use me as you see fit.  

I thank you so much and there is no distance in prayer. The word tells us it's not by might, it's not by power, but it's by your spirit. We take dominion authority over every spirit of distraction, anything that the enemy would use to hinder what is happening right now from being effective.  

We take dominion authority over it. in the mighty name of Jesus. Now God, we give way to you in Jesus' name we pray, Amen. Well, the last time I was on, I had some prayer points before me but this morning I have none.  

So I have some prayer points of my own. Let's pray for the people that are being that are unemployed, the people that are not working, the people who don't know. Oh, I see something here. Okay, I take that back.  

I just opened up my phone to get some requests and now I see some here. But we'll still pray for those. We pray for the people who are unemployed, don't know when this cheque would come, don't know what they're going to do, they have kids to feed, and stuff like that. We know the whole works.  

It might be some of us on the line, I don't know. But if it's not us, it could very well have been us. Because we don't know what will happen from day-to-day. So let us pray. So Father, your Word tells us that we ought to bear each other's burden.  

And we know that you are Jehovah Jireh. We know and there is nothing that is too difficult for you to do. We know that your word tells us call and you will answer us. We know, God, that the cattle upon a thousand hills belong to you. 

We know that the earth is yours and everything in it belongs to you. We know that you're a way maker and a miracle worker. We know that there are people you have in place you have already blessed to be a blessing.  

So for those who don't know you and even those who know you, but this morning they feel discouraged, I am asking for a miracle on their behalf, that food will mysteriously show up on their doorsteps. 

That people who don't even know them will be a blessing to them, that people who owe them money over a period of time, would release that money just in an opportune time and with interest so that their needs can be met.  

We pray that in the midst of this adversity, they would see you. You know what tells us, we can try you and see. So I pray in the name of Jesus that they would put their trust in you, not in the arms of flesh that will fail them. 

But they would harm the relationship with you in this time like none other, that they too can decree and declare that your name is Jehovah Jireh, the one who provides. Lord, out of this test, may there be testimonies. 

May there be those who would come forward and say, in the time when the government was shut down and I did not know what to do, I did not know where my food will come from, how I'd pay my bills. 

God sends somebody my way. God, the glory will go to you, not because the government is reopened, It's because of you. It's because you made a way where there seemed to be no way.  

It's because you love us so much. David said he had never seen the righteous forsaken. So I thank you for doing it this morning in Jesus wonderful name we decree and declare that it is done.  

We have Nina she said, please pray for my husband, Harold, Sergeant, Health and Strength. He's going to physical therapy to learn how to balance himself so he can put his walker down and use a walking cane. Also, pray for his appetite increases. He eats well about four days a week.  

The other three days, not good enough. Please pray for health and strength in the Lord. Pray that his blood pressure will come down to a normal range. Pray that my health does not, or she's prayed for herself here, that her health does not fail me as I take care of my husband.  

So God, we give Nina and her husband, Harold, to you this morning. You know them by name. You know what they have need of and your word told us to speak to the mountains. So we speak to their bodies this morning.  

We are commanding it to synchronize with the timeline of heaven. We are commanding it to come in agreement with the word of God. Blood pressure returned to normalcy in Jesus name. We pray, we command his balance.  

He would need no walker, no stick. You didn't create us to walk with sticks or walkers. So we command that body to come in alignment with the will and word of God. We boldly proclaim your word earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the Lord.  

Father, your word tells us to speak to the mountains, and it shall be removed. So we speak to anything that is standing in their way of healing. We know our healing has already been paid for.  

We know that you were wounded for our transgression, wounds of iniquity, the chastisement of our peace were upon you, and by your stripes we are healed. Lord, help them to exercise the measure of faith that you have already given to them.  

Because your word turns as if we have faith as small as the grain of a mustard seed. We can speak to anything and it has to line up with what we see. So I thank you Lord that healing is coming to their homes now in Jesus name we pray, Amen, Amen, Amen.  

Okay, we have one more. We want to pray for Calvin, he says, please pray for Veronica as she works in her new role in a new organization. 

That God will make the crooked path straight, remove any obstacles or barriers to the work that he has given her and sustain her and continue to give her all that she needs to complete the work at hand. 

Bless her mind, body, spirit to stay the course. Sustain my health and help me to be a blessing and a compliant to her in all the work that God has blessed her to do, to be a support, a soft place to learn and encouragement. 

So God we pray for Calvin and his family. We pray for Veronica as we thank you for the new role that you have put her in. Lord, you do not send us anywhere that you know we won't fit in.  

You wouldn't send us anywhere alone. So I pray that Veronica knows that you are with her. You would never leave her nor forsake her. I pray that she knows that she can call upon you.  

I pray that she knows that this door that is open to her for this new position, it is you who opened this door. You already know what she would go through, what she would have to face.  

The different people, the different cultures, the different mindset on the job. I pray that she knows that you have already anointed her for this position and sent her forth, that she would go forth and speak it into the atmosphere and perform at her best.  

She would perform in ways that she herself did not imagine or could not even have imagined. Lord, silence the enemy on that job. Those who would rise up against her without a cause, made her stumble and fall, I pray that she would excel and burst forth at the same.  

She will be a leader and not a follower. She will be a light in that organization. Give her ideas. God be on her imagination. Give her things that she can do that no one thought about.  

Your words says you would give us words to speak that no one could dispute. Do it on her behalf. Cover her in your blood. When she steps into that office building, wherever it might be, you use her as an atmosphere shifter.  

That should shift the atmosphere, O God in the name of Jesus, surround her by your glory and give your angels charge. I pray for her husband this morning. I pray for his strength. 

Give him the words to encourage that she that she would know that he's always there and he's looking for the kind of encouragement to give to her that she would know she can land at a soft spot. Lord may your name be glorified in their home. 

May your name be magnified through them in the name of Jesus I've come to thank you God for all you're going to do in them and on behalf of them you will touch us anything we put our hands to that you would prosper it.  

So I decree and declare that they would prosper wherever you put them. Every barrier, every obstacle be removed now in Jesus name. I thank you for sustained heart. I put on the whole armor of God upon them.  

I decree and declare that their minds, they have sane minds, that their bodies are healed. Lord, that they are strong in you and in the power of your might. I want to thank you for all you're doing for the physical support that he will be to her. I come against the spirit of fear and intimidation.  

Lord, your word tells us the wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous is as bold as a lion. So I pray she would go forth with that boldness. Speak with the authority in the name of Jesus, I decree and I declare that it is done.  

Now, I pray for every home, for everyone who is on this line. Lord, you know exactly who they are. You know what their needs are and I thank you by faith for meeting every need. Cover every house in your blood.  

I am asking that you would rest on the roof. Lord anchor the foundations of their homes. Oh God, saturate their homes with the power of your Holy Spirit. Let them feel your presence. Lord, take them from heights to higher heights, from depths to deeper depths, and from glory to glory in the name of Jesus.  

I declare and declare no weapon that is formed against them this day shall prosper and no other day. I pray for their children that they would excel and burst forth at the seams that no predators.  

Oh God, no abductors, no vile teacher would have access to them. Lord, isolate them from the evil that surrounds them in the name of Jesus. Let the counsel of the ungodly come like foolishness to them.  

Lord, help us this morning to teach our children your words, Bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart. Your word tells us to do that, that when they grow old, they would not depart from it.  

I thank you for every child, every parent, and those that are connected to them. I pray this morning that all will be well with us and that we will not grow weary in doing well know and in good in due season we would reap if we not faint.  

Now God you continue to have your will and your way as I pray for Zee, Pastor Zee and Pastor April as they undertake this role. Remind them that if you be for them, no one can be against them. 

Lord strengthen them, their knees and their thighs and their feet and their hands. Give them dreams and visions in the night. Send them the workers that they need. You know what they have need of. You provided them everything Solomon had need of, I pray for the same favor to fall upon them. 

Favor in the eyes of men, that people would give to them, that they would have to say, that's enough, we don't need anymore, we have all that we had need of. Let them see your hand in everything, working it out for their good.  

I come against fear and against worry, intimidation, any form of struggle. Lord, their mindsets, that they will have their mind stayed upon you so that you can keep them in perfect peace.  

Remind them, oh God, that you are with them. Your presence will go with them. Your spirit will lead the way. Remind them that they will be tested but in the end they will come forth as good, good.  

So may they stand their ground. I pray you would plant their feet on the firm foundation of Jesus Christ that they would never be shaken. May their names become household names in Alabama, God, as you move on their behalf. Cover their children.  

Protect them from harm and danger. Cover those you would send to help in the vineyard. Send laborers with minds to work like you did for Nehemiah. Let there be your presence among them.  

Oh God, let me be a spirit of agreement and unity. I pray against every spirit of deception. Those whom the enemy would send to interrupt the walk. Help them to be able to discern the Tobias and Sanballat.  

Oh God, so that they will not be deceived. God, I give everything to you this morning in Jesus name we pray, Amen, Amen, Amen. Now I want to share a quick word with you and then I want to, I want to respect your time.  

So I was thinking about what I should share. I went to bed last night. I didn't know what to say, what to do. And this morning I got a minister for and this word came to mind. A few got a few passages of scripture came to mind and I'm going to share it with you this morning.  

So we are certainly living in perilous times. And we see that men's heart is sailing from fear. But this morning, I want to remind us to be encouraged. If God be for us, no one can be against us.  

Matthew 11:28 says, Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. This is the word of God. God is saying to us to come to him. You have burdens, you're tired, you're frustrated, you're angry, you're upset, you're stressed out.  

Come to me. And when this landed in my spirit this morning, it reminded me of the way I speak to my own children. I say to my children every time, if you guys need anything, come to me. I do not want you to go asking anybody for anything.  

Come to me and this is what God is saying. I usually say from time to time, I say this to my husband all the time. No one will say they make me rich. I say it like my father Abraham. Anything I have I can boldly decree and declare, God give it to me.  

God will get the glory. People can say, oh, I helped her. They can say whatever they want to say, but it would not be the truth.  

The truth will be it is God. God is telling us, come to him. He did not tell us go to Pastor Zee, go to Pastor April, go to your father, go to your mother, go to a friend, go to here, go to there. If you go to him, he will tell you who to go to.  

And when he sends you to that person, that person is not going to report you. Because when God sends somebody to you, they're coming with the right spirit. This is why when we go to people and we get disappointed we upset with the people but did God send it to that person. 

He said come to him. We go to every other place or person except to where we're supposed to go and there is a price for that. If we look at 2 Kings 1, if you see for one through four you would see the king there.  

He fell through a lattice. And before he go to God, the same person who helped him in the time of war, before he go there, he sent them to Beelzebub to ask if he would ever get healed. I mean, this is some crazy, crazy stuff and God sent Elijah.  

Let me read it quickly. It said, Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab. And Ahaziah fell through the lattice of his upper room in Samaria and was injured. I want to keep my eyes on the time and was injured.  

So he sent messengers, not one, more than one and said to them, go inquire of Beelzebub, the God of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this injury. But the angel of the Lord said to Elijah the Tishbite, arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria and say to them. 

Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are going to inquire of Beelzebub, the God of Ekron? Now, therefore, thus say the Lord, you shall not come down from that bed to which you have gone up, but you shall surely die. 

And most of the times we don't get the response that we're looking for is because we do not see God as our first line of defense. We use him as an afterthought. After we tried everything else and we have failed, then we want to go to God.  

But that's not his word for us. We are not of this kingdom. We are not of this world. Our mindset should be different. In the natural, if anything happened to us, the first thing is a child falls.  

The first thing that child runs to the mother or the father. But we try everything else, we seek the first thing, I'm going to the doctor. Where is God in all of this? After he tells us in 1 Peter 5:7 to cast all our cares on him, not the ones that you cannot handle.  

He said, cast all, all, all. We have to put it all. So today I want to say to you, like Joshua, like God said to Joshua in Joshua 1:8, be strong and offer good courage. God wants to help us but we have to be strong.  

We have to know what we need to do and this time we need to know God for ourselves. Daniel tells us in 11:32 and they that know their God will be strong and do great exploits. We have to know God. Go to him.  

We can go to him. You don't have to have a degree. You don't have to have a special language. You don't have to be from a different culture, a different nation. He knows us. He knows what we have need of, but he's waiting on us to call. When we fail, it's not because God failed us.  

We failed ourselves. The wisest man that ever lived tells us in Proverbs 24:10, If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small. Saints, this is not the time to be fainting. This is not the time to panic and stock up food and no, no, no, no, no.  

Cast all that thing on God. He is able to take care of us. Do not get caught up with what is happening around you. Do not, cast all your cares upon God. Go to him. Talk to him like you would talk to Pastor Zee and God will deliver us.  

So with that in mind, Father, I just want to thank you again for the opportunity to share your word. I thank you for the hearers. I thank you by faith that your word will take root and bring fruit. Use us as iron sharpening iron that we will become the men and women of God that you have called us to be.  

I pray this morning that we will provoke each other in love unto good works that we will be strong and we will be of a good courage. I speak it into the atmosphere and I decree and declaring done in Jesus name I pray, Amen, Amen  

Thank you again for the opportunity. Thank you Mama Jen thank you so much for coming on and being a willing servant, a willing vessel, and for leading us this morning in prayer, and giving us words of encouragement and wisdom. 

And also for reminding us that God is our first line of defense, and we can seek Him first in all things before we go anywhere or to anyone else, because only God can give us what we need he is our sustainer he is our provider he knows us better than we know ourselves and family. 

We should seek him in all things before we seek men idols and other material things. So, thank you again Mama Jen and thank you all for joining us this morning on the Prayer Works Morning Devotion.  

And we pray that each and every one of you on this line has been blessed by the words today and the prayers and we look forward to seeing you on Sunday for Bible study, and if not, we will see you again here on Monday morning. God bless you all. Have a blessed day, everyone.
