"The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion — to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair."~from ISAIAH 61 Bible verse for this Blog

Precious Jesus, You told us to pray with persistence and fervency and You know that I still have a problem with this sometimes...even though You have shown signs, miracles and wonders through this type of praying...too often I step back and allow circumstances to take my focus off You...slacking off right before a victory...forgive me, Lord, as I commit to shameless audacity in my prayers to You for my prodigals...You never gave up on me so how in the world can I give up on them?? Eternity is at stake...forgive my disobedience and renew the fire in my heart to do whatever it takes...any sacrifice needed...direct my thoughts and prayers to always focus on what You are able to do and what You want me to do...in Your beautiful Name....
