Thank You God,
Thank You for establishing saints like Charles Finney, John G. Lake, smith Wigglesworth, Heidi Baker, T.L. Osborn, Apostle Paul, and many other saints, who likely go unhailed and unnoticed by much of the world throughout the annals of time. Thank You for their testimonies of Your touch and how You changed their lives.
Those testimonies make me long for You like never before (found in Bill Johnson’s book “Face to Face with God”). They make me hunger for a similar touch from You, God. I long for Your fire to fall, Lord! I long for Your Holy Spirit to fall upon me in power, that I may be purified in the blood, totally free of condemnation, powerfully anointed to preach and minister and heal; and most of all so awash in Your love and glory that my deepest desire would be for You to touch the world in the same manner.
I beg of You, Most Holy God, baptize me with fire, Lord! Thank You for Your baptism of the Spirit that opened my eyes and gave me tongues. Baptize me in Your fire, Your love, and Your blood, Lord! Baptize me in Your presence that I may be changed forever! Anoint me so in Your presence (like Charles Finney) that people fall at Your feet into repentance and salvation as I walk near. Yes Lord! I’m so hungry for You!(Let this baptism be continual if it needs to be, Lord, until You have completed the work You began in me).
I’m sick of the devil’s schemes and of my sin! I’m sick of everything that holds me back and keeps me from drawing near to You! Rid me of those things once and for all, Lord, I beg of You!
Rid me of condemnation, self-hatred, fear, doubt, discouragement, selfishness, rebellion, lust, and every sin that hinders and kills! Purify me, Lord! Give me revelation of your justification, righteousness, love, holiness, and sanctification! Set me free lord! Rid me of this stinking sin!
Pour out Your blood, Lord! Pour out Your presence into me, into my life, into my family, and into this world, I pray! Mold me in Your image Lord! Help me to pick up my cross daily; and to do it with joy, that I may count any sacrifice worth it, any suffering worth it for the joy of knowing You!
God, let love be my motivation for pursuing You, and for the grace to live righteously, walking by faith. Let it be not be out of obligation. I pray You touch me so that one of my deepest desires is to live to please You, God! Come, fill me Holy Spirit! Fill me! I pray You empower me to heal and minister and live in power, Lord! It’s only by Your grace that I have faith, live righteously, and obey You. It’s only by Your grace that I receive, believe, and live Your Word and Your way.
Jesus, You are the Truth, the Way, and the Life. It’s all You, Lord! Give me the grace to be totally humble and emptied of self, that I may be overwhelmingly filled by You.
Wretched human that I am! I am powerless and filled with sin, Lord! It’s only by Your grace and Your blood that I live! I cry for more grace lord! I cry for more of You, Lord! More love, more faith, more hope, more grace, more righteousness, more of Your presence God! I cry for more of You, God! Overwhelm me! Overcome me! Kill me Lord, so only You remain, until I am left with the person You destined and created me to be! I don’t want to wait until I lay down this vessel to be made perfect. I cry, make my heart, my mind, my soul perfect in You, Oh God!
Make me perfect in Christ! Perfect me in Christ! Perfect me in Christ!
Pour out Your Spirit, Your grace, Your mercy, Your faith, Your love, Oh Lord! Pour out all You dare to give me Lord! Pour out all I can handle until I am dead to all but You, Oh God!
I am a pitiful creature, Lord! I am poor and needy, bound by sin and by the enemy. Make me new in Christ! Pour out Your truth and give me the grace to receive it by faith! Pour out Your faith, God! Set me free in Christ by Your truth! Empty me of the lies that bind me and keep me from receiving and believing Your truth! I believe Lord, help my unbelief!
All the things that crush my spirit, set me free of them Lord! Free me to live (totally and completely) perfect for You! Perfect me in Christ! I hunger and thirst for You, a starving woman!
I pray a total and permanent release from the lies and captivity of sin! Your blood, Your truth, Your faith, Your grace, Your revelation can do that lord! You can do that Lord!
Feed me with Your Word, unbind me with Your truth, was me (totally, mind and heart) in Your blood. Sanctify me by Your Spirit and pour out Your mercy, Lord.
