Sabbath Prayer – Steps 2 Success with Spiritual Solutions

The True Tests of Faith Produce Righteousness and Character Transformation

“Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which is taking place to test you [that is, to test the quality of your faith], as though something strange or unusual were happening to you.” (1 Peter 4:12, Amplified Bible).

The challenges, disappointments, and hardships, we experience are allowed for the purpose of strengthening our faith, trust, obedience, and dependency on God.

“Be holy for I am Holy.” (1 Peter 1:16). We can come to Jesus just like we are, but we cannot stay that way.

The Holy Spirit can only sanctify those who willingly live a life of daily surrender and faithful obedience to follow and obey Jesus Christ, our Shepherd.

Our earthly lives are the only opportunity that we have to cooperate with the Holy Spirit, Who gradually [day by day] changes our mind, character, and personality into the likeness of Jesus’ Righteous Character.

“For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (2 Peter 1:5-8, NIV).

Lord God, Creator of this universe and every living thing, we humbly bow in Your Holy Presence on the Holy Sabbath asking for the forgiveness of our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Lord, we have faced a week filled with many challenges, including spiritual warfare that has left us depleted. We are in need of the blessings of spiritual renewal, restoration, and healing of our mind, body, and soul. We pray for a Christ-like spirit to love others, including our enemies. Jesus, we thank You for loving us unconditionally; we praise You for the blessings we received, including angelic protection from all harm. Thank You for giving us the Sabbath, a time to rest, and redirect our focus to reflect deeply on Your Love, Grace, Mercies, and Faithfulness. We also ask You to strengthen the global Christian Community, especially those who are being persecuted for accepting and following Jesus. In faith and with gratitude, we ask this prayer in the Loving and Righteous Name of our Savior and Triumphant King, Jesus Christ, Amen.

“Remember The Seventh-Day To keep It Holy”

Lord God, we thank You for loving us so much that You designated 24 hours to focus on Your Love, and worship You in spirit and Truth. We look forward to Eternity, when we will worship King Jesus with the angels. Until that glorious day of Your Second Coming, we ask for the Sabbath Blessings of peace, joy, wisdom, and mental, emotional, and physical rest, renewal, and restoration. As we study your Holy Words of Life, we ask for the Holy Spirit to bless us with the spiritual discernment to understand and apply Your Truth to our lives. In faith, we ask this prayer in the Loving and Righteous Name of our Triumphant King, Jesus Christ, Amen.

Come, Let Us Worship and Bow Down: Let Us Kneel Before The Lord Our Maker. Amen.

Lord God, You Are Holy, Holy, Holy. You are the Sovereign Authority of this universe, and with humility and surrender, we bow before Your Throne of Grace on this Holy Sabbath, worshiping You, because You are the Most-High God. Lord, we ask you to forgive us of our sins against You. We thank You for The Plan of Redemption, which required the death of Your Precious Son, God, Jesus Christ. Lord Jesus, we thank You for humbling Yourself to come to this earth, in poverty to save our souls. We are in desperate need of the abundant blessings of spiritual renewal and restoration. Lord, we thank You for bringing us safely through this week. We are weary, yet, we look forward to the blessings of strength, peace, joy, and happiness that comes from placing our faith and trust in You. Thank you for giving us 24 hours to forget about the routine duties of life and redirect our focus to worshiping You on the Sabbath that You Sanctified and made Holy. We surrender to Your Sovereignty and look forward to the day when we will see You face to face in all of Your glory. In faith, we praise Your Holy Name and ask this prayer in the Loving and Righteous Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

The Lord Is Near To Those Who Call On Him – King Jehoshaphat’s Prayer

Throughout the Bible, God reveals that total dependence on Him will always lead to Deliverance and Victory!

Whether facing life’s routine duties, or the many unexpected challenges, hardships, and impossible battles, Jesus, our Mighty Warrior invites us to use our faith to Pray, Ask for His Help, and Wait on Him. And while waiting, we continue to praise Him with prayers and songs of gratitude.

King Jehoshaphat’s Prayer: 2 Chronicles 20

5 “Then Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the Lord in front of the new courtyard,

6 and said, ‘O Lord, God of our fathers, are You not God in heaven? And do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand, there is no one able to take a stand against You.

7 O our God, did You not drive out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel and give it forever to the descendants of Your friend Abraham? 8 They have lived in it, and have built You a sanctuary in it for Your Name, saying,

9 ‘If evil comes on us, or the sword of judgment, or plague, or famine, we will stand before this house and before You (for Your Name and Your Presence is in this house) and we will cry out to You in our distress, and You will hear and save us.’

10 Now behold, the sons of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir, whom You would not allow Israel to invade when they came from the land of Egypt (for they turned away from them and did not destroy them),

11 here they are, rewarding us by coming to drive us out of Your possession which You have given us as an inheritance.

12 O our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless against this great multitude which is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on You.'”

The most powerful aspect of this prayer is the acknowledgement of God’s Sovereign Authority and Power:

‘O Lord, God of our fathers, are You not God in heaven? And do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand, there is no one able to take a stand against You.’

And the second most powerful aspect of the King’s prayer reveals his humility, faith, and surrender to the Most-High God:

‘We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on You.’

Praising God before He intervenes reveals that we are using our faith to completely trust in His Omnipotence and gives Honor and Glory To His Most Holy Name:

“Jehoshaphat bowed with his face to the ground, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before the Lord, worshiping Him.”

“The Levites, from the sons of the Kohathites and the sons of the Korahites, stood up to praise the Lord God of Israel, with a very loud voice.” (2 Chronicles 20:18-19, Amplified Bible).

God’s Reminder to all of His Sons and Daughters: God’s Promises do not have an Expiration date. Yes and Amen!

“Listen carefully, all [you people of] Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat. The Lord says this to you: ‘Be not afraid or dismayed at this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s.” (2 Chronicles 20:15, Amplified Bible).

Lord God, our hearts are filled with praise and gratitude for giving us the Holy Scriptures with stories of men and women, who used their faith to pray, ask, and believe that Your Promises to help us are Truth, and Yes and Amen! Lord, today on your Blessed Holy Sabbath, we confess that we have faced many challenges this week, attempting to resolve them using our human thoughts and strategies. And for our doubt and unbelief, we ask for forgiveness. Lord, we have come to our spiritual senses, realizing that we can do nothing without You. and now, Lord, in faith, we seek You, asking for Your Divine Help, believing that you will give us Deliverance and Victory. We also ask for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit’s Presence, and the Blessings of wisdom and strength. With faith, trust, and praise, we honor and worship You on Your Holy Sabbath. In Jesus’ Loving and Righteous Name, we pray, Amen.

Sabbath Peace and Blessings!
