I Ask That You Help Me Lord!

Can you be in God's will and be miserable? 

Well, yes. But you can also be in tremendous peace. 

For people who are saying, "I'm in a tough situation right now because I believe it's where God wants me, but I'm miserable, frustrated and unhappy," there's good news. 

When God asks us to stay in a difficult situation, He provides a special grace for us to get through it. It's the kind of grace that leads others to look at us and think: Wow! I can't believe they're dealing with this and still have such peace! That's faith!

When we say things like, "I just don't think I can make it," we're essentially giving up, when we could just as easily trust God to help and sustain us. 

If you are anxious, tense, or concerned about anything in your life, begin now to relax, let go, and let God fill your need. Learning to trust God for His grace on a daily basis will help you keep your thoughts and words in line with His Word. 

No matter what seems to be missing from your life—be it a much-loved person, a special place, an activity of great value, or a feeling of well-being—know that when you pray God's light and substance and divine activity will move in and through you. God's creative process is awaiting your acceptance of its productive, healing action. Let your thoughts be lifted up. Let the presence of God dissolve your fears and doubts and remove every unbelief. 

God's love and goodness will always fill every need in your circumstances, every hunger of your heart, every longing of your soul for peace and assurance, and every good desire for your well-being. Although it may now seem you are separated from that which has been your greatest avenue of comfort, security, or supply, remember: God is always there to help you. No matter how great the gulf seems between you and the solution to your deepest desire, you can call on Jehovah-Shammah as He is always there. 

Begin now to relax from the strain and effort of questioning, planning, and reasoning. Take a few moments today to ask God: I need your help to let this go so that you, God, can  fill my need. Your prayers will be more effective, and your understanding of the presence of God within you will be clearer. When you ask our Lord God to help you know that He will never desert you or forsake you.

Intercession Prayer

I am thankful for this day; for this is the day that You have made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. I am thankful for the Blood of Jesus, knowing it cleanses us from all unrighteousness and allows us to come boldly to the throne of grace according to Hebrews 4:16. We are not moved by what we see, hear, smell, touch or taste. We are not moved by reason. We are only moved by Your Spirit and Your Word and we know Your Voice, and we hear Your Voice and we refuse to follow strangers according to John 10:27. Our seed is mighty upon the earth according to Psalms 112:2. Lord Jesus, I ask you to expand my territories; to fill me and increase me in the Holy Spirit and anointing with power. I ask You to lead me in paths of righteousness for Your Name’s Sake. I Bless You, Praise You, Worship You, and commit all that I am to You, that Your perfect will be done through me. I ask that You help me to cease from my own labors. I do so by faith. I ask that You cause me to enter Your Rest now, in Jesus’ Name and I receive that. I ask You to release my warring and ministering angels to minister and war on my behalf. 

I ask you to fill this, Your temple; with your Shikinah Glory. Help me to bear the cross You have prepared for me and help those in my family. I ask that the Holy Spirit speak to my heart through Your Word. I ask that You prepare me with reverence and worship, and with humility through Your Holy Spirit. I ask that You take out of me, add to me or do to me; anything You want. I ask that the Word I read would be engrafted into me and become part of me; spirit, mind, will and emotions. I declare by Your power; You are helping and causing me to be bold, dauntless, fearless, confident, intrepid, valiant, steadfast, faithful, true and loyal for Your Name’s Sake. I ask You to deliver me where I am blind, wretched, naked, and poor. I ask for your help. I ask for help that Your Love and Grace in me; flow and be administered to others by Your Spirit in me, to manifest Your Presence in and through me. I release all things into Your hands and commit myself unto You, trusting You. I ask for help, that You give me the Word that You want me to give to others. Lord forgive me and help me to follow Your direction. I ask that You would send those that would receive the gift of salvation to me, that I may witness to them. Let them ask and receive, Father!

I ask that You give me a clear mind and thoughts toward You, clear will toward You, and clear of all emotional clutter. I ask that You cause me to hear You louder and clearer, and rest in You. I ask You to release Your love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, with long-suffering, and self-control to flow over and in and throughout my life. I ask You to fashion my heart like Yours, that Your fruit will abound in and through me to others. I ask You Father for a clear, sharp, and healthy mind and body in You. Heavenly Father, I ask for Your perfect Will being worked out through my life and the lives of those that my life touch; as You direct me. I ask You for eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart to comprehend and receive what the Holy Spirit has to say. I ask to speak and to do Your perfect will in this life; for You, for me, and for my family. I ask You to guard me and my family with many angels and that they manifest as needed. I ask You to make me alert, awake, sharp and attentive in Your thoughts and ways. I ask that I may prosper in what I put my hands to do for You. I ask you to renew my youth like the eagles. I ask for a heart like Yours and growth and maturity to walk in it to the fullest with You; in Jesus’ Name. Amen!
