Father,
You alone are the restorer of hope. Bring us pause as we realize how many people in this city don't know you and as such constantly battle hopelessness. We lift them up to you now, Lord. Cover them. Let them have a glimpse of hope - your hope - in their lives today and throughout this week. Pour out your Spirit across this city and let those who are in despair experience you somewhere somehow this week. Use us, your imperfect church, to touch the people in our daily lives so that we might be instruments of your hope and your life. Work through us in spite of our insufficiencies and be glorified as Miami catches a glimpse of you - and finds hope.
Asking in Christ's name.
Amen
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
