Jesus,
you see each of us in the quiet lonely moments. You see the tears. You know the isolation and the fear. You know the rejection. You have felt what it is like to turn around and realize you are standing alone. We pray for those who know you and yet find themselves alone in their world. Remind them this week of your love. Let them draw close to you and cling to you. May your love fill them to overflowing and pour out through them into their world. We also pray for those around this city who find themselves alone and don't know you. Comfort them in their loneliness. Make your church in Miami intensely aware of the people around them who are aching - aching for someone to notice them or speak to them or touch them. Jesus, use us, your church, to see and touch the people around this city who feel invisible. Fill us with your love and pour it out across this city.
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
