Welcome everybody. Welcome to all the campuses. It's so good to be together in the house of the Lord to worship. So let's exalt his name in this place. Let's lift him up. Let's lift our voices and sing. Amen. Found in your name. the power to say. Call me a whisper mouth in shade.

Jesus our hope and strength. You made a way. Unlock these chains here in your presence. Heat. Heat. Heat. We give you the highest praise. You deserve it all. You deserve it all. We give you the highest praise. You deserve it all. You deserve it all. Heat. Heat. Heat.

Oh, heat, heat. Heat. Heat. Come on, let's give him a little bit of p praise this morning. So good to see all of you. Want to welcome all of those at our other campuses and everyone watching online. Good morning. It's just an honor to lead you and to pray to pray with you this morning.

Uh, Pastor Daniel is out of town, a one-day meeting, a leadership roundt out of state and he'll be back tomorrow and it's my honor to to be with you today. I'm going to tell you, let me give you a little bit of a of an I can't even think.

It's early. It is early. I did not have coffee, but I have Jesus. >> So, uh, here we go. Let me give you a little idea of how we're going to do this today. I'm going to share just a short devotion with you. Then we're going to uh t take about 30 minutes and pray all over all the requests have cards at every campus and uh and after we do that you'll hear the worship team come in.

They'll begin to worship again and at that time you can return the cards. I tell you the last few few mornings I've taken three or four cards. I've prayed. I I looked around. There were more cards. I came and traded them in. So you can do that as well.

But why don't you have a seat? I want to just share a few minutes with you. I just want to stir your faith. Is that okay with you? >> Isaiah 65:24 says, "Before they call, I will answer." And I love this part. "And while they're still speaking, I will hear."

I love how the Lord's already in gear to answer our prayer. I know how the enemy works. He'll tell you, "The Lord's not listening to you." But that's not true. George Mueller ran orphans in Bristol, England in the 1800s. He cared for more than 2,000 kids and made a choice to never ask people for money.

He took every need to the Lord in prayer and he taught the kids to do the same. Don't you love that? One morning, the house mom came in to him in fear. Said, "Sir, the kids are in their room. They're all dressed for school, but there's no food in the house.

We have no bread. We have no milk. And George Mueller said, "Have the kids sit at the table." So they did. Plates were set. Cups were out. The kids looked at empty plates. And the house mom felt sick with fear. And Mueller lifted his hands and he prayed this.

Father, we thank you for the food you're about to give us. We're so glad you hear our prayers. Right then, there was a knock at the door. Don't you love it? It was the town baker. He said, "Mr. Mueller, I couldn't sleep last night. I felt the Lord tell me you would need bread this morning, so I got up at 2:00 a.m. and baked three big loaves, and I brought them to you."

Moments later, there was another knock at the door. This time, it was the milkman. You can't make this stuff up. He said, "My cart broke down in front of your house. My milk will spoil if I don't give it away. Could you use it?" That morning, every child had bread and milk.

But more than that, they saw the power of prayer and the care of a loving God. That's why we can believe Isaiah 65:24. Let me read it to you again. before they call, I will answer. And while they're still speaking, I will hear. I know so many times we just feel like we're just tossing our prayers up to heaven, hoping the father picks us.

Can I tell you, he's already leaning over heaven. He knows what you're going to pray. He's ready to answer in prayers of partnership with him. So our prayer today is not just hoping that he hears us. Our prayer today is knowing he hears us while we're still speaking.

We can believe the answers on the way. Father, I ask you today to increase our faith. Lord, I pray we feel your presence as we pray. And Lord, I just ask you to to to strengthen our faith in knowing that you hear and you answer your children in Jesus name.

Amen. I'm going to I'm going to ask you to stand with us right now. And for the next 30 minutes, we're going to press into the presence of the Lord. But as we do, you maybe you want to walk around, maybe you want to kneel, maybe you want to take the card back to your seat.

All we ask is that you don't do anything that would be distracting those around you. I know some of you intercessors, hey, I've known you a long time. You'll grab swords and stomp and scream. Save that for your prayer closet and let's just pray together as one voice believing God and then in a few minutes the prayer team I'm pardon me the worship team will come back up and as they do you can begin to bring the cards back and then I'll call you forward and we're going to hammer on some things in prayer this morning together one corporate voice as we pray for the community and for uh for schools and for businesses in the area.

How many of you believe there's a fresh move of God on the horizon? You believe that? And you know what I know? You're going to carry it everywhere you go. So, we're going to pray for an impartation for you today as well. All right. Won't you come forward and begin to get the cards?

Let's pray. Holy, holy is the Lord. Worthy is your name. Worthy, worthy is your name. All the glory to the highest. All the glory to the lamb forever. Worthy, worthy is your name. Great to be to be. You are great to be praised. You are great to be praised.

Heat. Heat. Yeah. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Temple as the tree of your love is this temple. You know, the longer that I've walked with the Lord, I've realized that what he does in us is what he wants to do through us. When you need healing and then he brings healing, he doesn't just do it for us.

He does it so he can anoint us so that we can heal others. And so we're going to pray right now. I'm going to ask you if you would to move as close to the platform as you can. Even if it just means getting out in the aisle.

I want you to do it like an act of unity, act of faith together. We're going to be one voice, one heart. And we're going to pray over our neighborhoods, our schools, our businesses. those of you still with us online and at every campus. Of course, pray for the schools and businesses in your particular area.

But I also want you to be thinking as we pray about those who serve and lead within your community. Even if you don't know their name, you remember that that young lady you met at the at the local store. I I probably need to pray for the staff at TJ Maxx.

You know what I'm talking about. Okay. But you go into places like Chick-fil-A and you're just burdened for an employee. Let the Lord bring them back to your mind. Let's don't just pray in general. But I want to read you a passage. I think this is such a good word for us right now.

Jeremiah 29:7 says, "Seek the peace and prosperity of the city." And I'll add the city where you live to which I carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it because if it prospers, you too will prosper. But my favorite part of that passage says to the city which I've carried you into exile.

When we're in a bad place, exile is a bad place. When you're in a bad place, we pray to get out. But the Lord put us in. He has you in the neighborhood you're supposed to be in. He has you at the school you're supposed to be. He has you working where you're supposed to work.

He has you around the people you're supposed to be around. Why? Because he wants to carry the presence of God into their life. So what the Lord's doing in you, I believe he wants to do through you. But let's begin to pray right now. Lord, we pray right now for our neighborhoods, our schools.

We pray for the businesses. First of all, Lord, for our neighborhood, Lord, we pray for the neighbors around us. We pray, Father, for the ones that are right across the street from us. And if you're an apartment complex, just begin to pray for those who that are all around you, those that you run into daily, those that you run into weekly.

Lord, we just ask in the name of Jesus for household salvation for our neighbors. Lord, we pray that the the dads would be saved, the moms would be saved, the children would be saved. Lord, we pray the atmosphere of their homes would change. Lord, we pray that that that you would pour out your spirit in their homes in such a way that if there's healing that needs to take place, that there would be healing.

If there's a presence of God that just needs to invade that home, then a presence of God would invade that home. Lord, we pray for our neighbors. Lord, we pray for divine appointments with our neighbors. Not just the hello out in the street or in the front yard, but Lord, we pray for those divine appointments.

Lord, we pray either they knock on our door or we knock on theirs and there'll be some one- on-one exchange where we're able to talk about Jesus and witness and pray. And Lord, I'm just convinced that if we just say to people, "Hey, how could I pray for you?"

They'd just be so open to the gospel, God, would you give us that boldness? Would you fill us with that that love for our neighbors, Father, in Jesus' name? Lord, we lift our schools to you, Lord. Instead of cursing our schools and talking about how bad education is, Lord, today we bless our schools in Jesus name.

Lord, we pray for a move of God just like there's a move of God right now in colleges and universities all over this nation. Lord, we pray for a move of God at our high schools. We pray for a move of God at our at our junior highs.

We pray for a move of God in our elementary schools, even our preschools. Lord, let the spirit of God Come on, join me right here. Let's pray into this. I really feel the Lord wants a fresh move of God in our school system. Lord, we pray for the administrators.

If you know them by name, if you know the teachers by name, maybe you just know their face, pray for them right now individually, pray for them right now. Father, we just lift them to you right now. We pray for a fresh move of God in Jesus' name in their life.

Lord, I pray they'd find you. I'd pray they know you. And Lord, if they can't talk about you in the classroom, I pray students begin to ask questions and they have to. Lord, we pray for Bible studies to break out in these schools. Lord, I pray that that move of God called See You at the Pole would just continue to multiply in these schools where students lead prayer meetings and teachers have to have to be involved.

And it it's just a move of God. That's what we're praying in Jesus name. Lord, we pray for our businesses right now, those around us. Lord, I just have to tell you, it breaks my heart when I see a business open and then they have to close because they're not doing well.

Lord, we speak blessings right now on the businesses, especially those, Lord, that that help our families, those Lord that have a service that everyone needs. Lord, we just pray for our businesses, but Lord, not in a general sense. We pray for every business right now that we frequent.

Lord, would you bless them? Lord, would you bless the owner? Would you bless them with health? Would you bless their families? And Lord, would you use our lives? Would you just pray into this right now? Would you use our lives, Lord, to be a witness to them, Lord?

Use the faith that we have, use the testimony that we have to be a testimony to them, Lord, in Jesus name. And Father, for these that we've just called out to you, also those around us who serve, those who lead in our community. Father, we pray right now for our local mayors.

We pray right now for our local city council. We pray right now for our police chief, for our fire chief. Lord, those who serve in our our communities, Lord, we lift them up. We pray for protection over them in Jesus' name. But Lord, we pray that they would have a godly conscience.

We pray the Holy Spirit would come upon them in their leadership and Lord, they'd make decisions that would bless our cities, not decisions that would curse our cities. God, we stand against all evil. Father, we pray that drug addicts would not just be driven out, but God, we pray they'd be saved in Jesus name.

We pray that crime would not just go down. We pray that criminals would be converted and saved and filled with the Holy Spirit. Father, we know you can do that. We pray for household salvation for these folks in the name of Jesus. And Lord, we pray for spiritual renewal right now.

We just ask you to pour your spirit out just as we sang. Pour your spirit out right now. If your heart cries out for just a fresh touch of the Holy Spirit in your life, in your home, in your family, I just want you to lift your hands to the Lord.

Father, right now in the name of Jesus, we pray for a fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit. And Lord, we know we need it, but we also know, Father, we're asking right now for an overflow of your spirit so that we have plenty when we walk into these businesses, when we walk into these offices, when we walk into our jobs, our schools, our neighbors homes, and our neighborhoods.

Father, we ask for an overflow of your spirit in us and through us in Jesus' name. One of our leaders just said to me just a few moments ago, there's a lot of people asking for healing. And if you're one of those, you're either asking for personal healing or you're believing God for healing of someone you love, just lift your hand, at least a hand to the Lord.

And those around you right now, if you see hands in the air, reach out, touch them on the shoulder. We just have a few minutes left. Father, right now, in the name of Jesus, we pray for an outbreak of healing in and through Gateway Church. And everyone online right now, we agree with you as well.

And all of our campuses, we agree as well. With every hand in the air, we say, "Father, right now, let your power and your presence come." And Lord, we release healing in the name of Jesus into these bodies. But Lord, more than that, we pray that you would heal us so that you can use us to heal others.

Lord, we pray for physical healing, emotional healing, mental healing. Lord, we pray for wholeness in Jesus' name. And if you're believing for that, just say amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. I want you today as you're driving somewhere, keep in mind that you're on a mission, ask the Lord to put people in front of you.

I pray as you're walking through Target, you just get a burden for a lady and you just have to stop and say, "Listen, I just walked by you and my heart just goes out to you. I don't know. I have a burden for you. Can I pray for you? just see what happens and then send it to stories@gatewaypeople.com because we want to know.

We want to we want to rejoice with you because I know God's up to some things and you never know what he's up to unless somebody tells you. All right. Well, Pastor Daniels, I said he's out of state at a leadership meeting. He'll be back with us live tomorrow, but remember to pray for him and and I believe one of our elders is with him.

Just pray for their safety as well. And uh boy, we sure love you. Let me see what time it is. I don't know. I might have beat Pastor Daniel. It's 6:53. We sure love you. God bless y'all. You're dismissed. Have a great day.
