Bishop Keith A. Butler | Senior Pastor and Presiding Bishop | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Praise God. Congratulations on 30 days of prayer. You know, 30 days is a long time, and when you're going to focus and get before God about something for 30 days, not only does He know that you're serious, the devils know you're serious, and guess what's happened? We've caused things to move. Things will happen this year that are new and are fresh in our church, in our lives, in our na

Pastor MiChelle Ferguson | Executive Pastor | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Hi everybody. Welcome to 30 days of prayer. We're on day 29 and today we're going to be praying for wisdom and protection and I'm going to read Proverbs chapter 2 verses 6 through 8 because it really encompasses both of these things.

Minister Kila Turner | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Greetings and welcome back to our 30 days of prayer. I'm Minister Kila Turner and today we are going to pray for religious freedom. You know, there was a time where many nations embraced believers and the ability for us to freely share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and live our lives in line with the Word of God. If they didn't embrace it, at least they would tolerate it. But now it's very clear that the tides have turned. You

Pastor Jean Kinuthia | Senior Pastor | Faith4Life, Nairobi, Kenya Hello, my name is Jean Kinuthia, Pastor of Faith for Life Church Nairobi, Kenya. Welcome to day 23 of our 30 days of prayer. Today, we pray for Christians to discover and complete their assignment. In Ephesians chapter 4 and verse 1, it is written, “ I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, ” Certainly, there's a call, a general call for all

Pastor Sanford McQueen | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Well, hello everyone. I am Pastor Sanford McQueen here at Word of Faith in Southfield, Michigan, and it is my pleasure to encourage you on day 22 of our 30-day prayer campaign to pray for those that are dealing with grief.

But even in addition to that, God sees death as being

Pastor Mario Bennett | Senior Pastor | Faith4Life, Round Rock, TX Hello and welcome to 30 days of prayer. My name is Pastor Mario Bennett from Faith for Life Church in Round Rock, Texas. This is day 21 and today our prayer topic is praying for judges to rule righteously. Now the Word of God has quite a bit to say about judges. I want to draw your attention specifically in the book of Judges chapter 11 in verse 27 where it declares that the Lord God is the judge of all. So in

Pastor Deborah Butler | 1 st Lady | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Hello ladies and gentlemen. I am so glad to address you today. And today we want to talk just a little bit about orphans and widows, and how God feels about them because we want to make sure that we pray for them. Psalm 68, verse 5, says, “ A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation .” He thinks very highly of the fatherless, or orphans, and widows. So what we need to

Pastor Derrick Greene | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Good morning to all my brothers and sisters are around the world, near and far. Of course, this is our 30 days of prayer campaign and my subject today is we are praying for the laws in the years to be established, as well as praying for the laws to be abolished.

My name is Pastor Edward Taylor and I am the Senior Pastor at Word of Faith Christian Center in Yazoo City, Mississippi.

Minister Jasmin Haynes | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Welcome to day 17 of 30 days of prayer. I am Minister Jasmine Haynes and today we are praying for individuals who are struggling with their identity. We are living in a time where people don't know who they are, what they are or what they are called to do. People are looking for their identity in cars and clothes and women and men - in politics and even in their careers. We have social media that are leading to feelings o

Pastor John Ward | Senior Pastor | Word of Faith, Toronto, Canada Praise the Lord. This is Pastor Ward from Word of Faith Toronto. Welcome to 30 days of prayer. Today is day number 16. Today we are going to pray for spirit-filled leaders to impact your nation. As I was thinking about this, I was taken to our foundation text, which is 1 Timothy chapter 2, and verse 2 says to pray for kings and all that are in authority. In authority is referring to people of influence. And of

Minister Anita Davis | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Welcome to 30 days of prayer. I am so glad you guys made it back for another day of powerful prayer.

Minister Jason Mitchell | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Hello my name is Minister Jason Mitchell and I want to welcome you to day 13 of our 30 days of prayer. Today we are going to pray for a great spiritual awakening around the world. I think it is obvious to the most casual observer that the world is in need of a spiritual awakening.

Pastor Lee Ferguson | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI This is Pastor Lee Ferguson, day 12 of the 30 days of prayer and today we're going to focus on having complete health and financial breakthrough. Why is this important for us as believers? God's desire for us is to have great health and for us to be prosperous in our finances. Why is that the case? We are supposed to be representations of Him. We're supposed to be representing the Kingdom of God. So we are the light of the w

Minister Linda Burdette | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Hi, I'm Minister Linda Burdett and today is day 11 of our 30 days of prayer and today we will be praying for Christians facing persecution all around the world. 380 million Christians experience persecution for their faith every single day.

You're going to pray for your nation, my nation, and all nations around the world.

Pastor Matthew Tarkington | Senior Pastor | Faith4Life, Dallas, TX Hey faith family, welcome back to 30 days of prayer. This is Pastor Matt from Faith4Life, Dallas and today we're going to be talking about praying for our youth and our children and we're going to use the word teen -T-e-e-n - to guide our prayers because it's relevant. It's easy to remember, First is the letter ‘t’ and it means that we want to pray that God would transform their hearts. We're praying for the h

Pastor Frank Davis | Campus Pastor | Faith4Life, Toledo, OH Hi, my name is Pastor Frank Davis, and today we are praying for fellowship and unity in the body of Christ. You know, with all of the issues that we see going on in the world today, it seems as if the church is divided and arguing over a lot of these issues.

Minister Kristina Jenkins | Word of Faith, Southfield, MI Hello and welcome to 30 days of prayer. I'm Minister Kristina Jenkins.

It says, “ The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise.”  You know, the fear of

Bishop Keith A. Butler | Senior Pastor and Presiding Bishop | Word of Faith Southfield, MI Praise God. Welcome to 30 days of prayer. Prayer is extremely necessary. We have a lease in the earth for the time being. If you know anything about leases, you will know this— that the lessee has rights and the owner can't come in unless invited by the lessee until that lease is up.  It is the same thing with prayer. God gave man a lease on this planet, gave us authority, and He wants
