FATHER, what makes you euphorically thrilled? What makes you angry? What bores you or excites you? What are you passions and desires? What puts an amused smile on your face or causes to you laugh out loud? What makes you shake your head in disgust or lower your eyes and grieve? I have a feeling they are not the things that elicit these same emotions in us. Oh Lord, we want to know your heart. We need to know your heart. How can we pray rightly if we don’t know? FATHER, as we commit to continuous and fervent prayer, reveal your heart to us in increasing measure so that our prayers are informed by the very heart of God
Every Monday a Miami community leader will post a prayer here as part of this prayer blog. Their prayers will cover all areas of Miami from Liberty City to Fisher Island and will reflect the passions and burdens God has given them for this city. Make time on Monday mornings to join them in covering this city with prayer – for the children, for the poor, for protection, for the leaders, for the influential, for the economy, for the artists, or for whatever God is calling us to pray that week.
In addition, make it a priority in your own time to pray for your neighbors and your neighborhood. Pray for your city (Coconut Grove, Opa Locka, Hialeah, Coral Gables, etc.) and pray for Miami-Dade. Cover the people and the leaders. Pray that God would reveal to you what he is doing and that you would have the strength to respond in obedience. Use the comments area to post your own relevant prayer.
In your prayers pray for CPR - Cleansing, Protection, and Revival. Ask for forgiveness and cleansing. Ask for Protection from harm and evil. Ask for Revival in the hearts of the people. Ask God to pour out His spirit on this great place and that it will be a beacon in a dark world.
Pray that Miami would glow one day with the presence, power and glory of God
the way it now glows with neon. For more information: info@praymia.org

Jesus, Lover of My Soul
by Shelley Nirider
Jesus lover of my soul
All consuming fire is in Your gaze
Jesus I want You to know
I will follow You all my days
For no one else in history is like You
And history itself belongs to You
Alpha and Omega You have loved me
And I will share eternity with You
It's all about You Jesus
And all this is for You
For Your glory and Your fame
It's not about me
As if You should do things my way
You alone are God
And I surrender to Your ways
May this be the prayer of my heart as I seek after the Father's heart.
