Father God,
You are merciful and kind. Merciful! Wow! Merciful - giving us what we don't deserve - oh, that makes me smile!!! I am so grateful for you in our lives. I join you with Maximus as he seeks your forgiveness. God we are have fallen short and pride always comes before a fall. Thank you for your word being plain about the consequences of our behavior. At the same time we thank you for an upward slope in Maximus' sales that will blow his mind and where YOU will get ALL of the glory, honor, and praise and he will share your goodness and stories about your favor with his co-workers. Some will laugh and despise him, some will be envious, some with reject him because his open proclaimation of your glory. BUT WE REJOICE IN IT! It means we belong to you. And I'd rather have you as a co-worker taking the heat and bringing home the meat, than any fickle human being on the planet. I love you and Maximus does too. Cover him now or Lord, restore a right spirit within him and let him be of good courage. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Please pray for me in my business venture. May was a month when I witnessed God's gift first hands. God's goodness was revealed by providing me with career highs in the most important sales categories in my business. But I became arrogant and believed that the sales were because of my skills, knowledge and charisma. Since the 1st of the month my sales have fallen off dramatically, and I can attribute it to my arrance and over-confidence in my own abilities. Please pray that I can return to the Father and praise his gifts so that I can be witness to all the wonders God has in store for his children.

Dear Father,
I praise your wondeful name. Thank you for smiling on us today with sunshine on the inside and outside.
I'm praying for my sister AMC, who is stretching out on faith to go where you lead her. She already has the job offer Lord, but we are asking you to confirm the way in which she should go and make it plain. Whisper in her ear the direction in which she should go. And Lord thank you for the means to get higher education to be eligible for such jobs God. So many do not have the same blessing, but we pray it over their lives right now. In Jesus' name,
Amen.

Dear Lord,
You are truly awesome. When I would forget you, you remember me and guide me to you (even while eating baskin robbins) you asked me to stop to check this page and I see that you are at work in the lives of Bro. Andrew and Sis. Steseju. I am asking you to bless them both and ask Your Spirit to welcome them into this intercessory circle of prayer.
Lord, I am am joining with Andrew and Steseju now, asking that you bless our sister and her husband with the fortitude to build their business with integrity and joy sparked from a passionate adventure with you as you guide them. Protect their land as you have oft promised those who served you long ago and Lord, I am believing in super-natural debt cancellation for this family as they remain good stewards of your Kingdom's business. And Lord, annoint their daughter to have wisdom, understanding, charity, and compassion which will allow her to place her thumbprint on the world.
Please honor Andrew's request to guide us down the uncertainties of our careers and ignite our passions according to your design. In Jesus' precious Name, amen.

Lord, in this world which has fallen away from You, that which should be so simple - that we joyfully imitate You by creating through our work, our skills and talents - has become a continuous struggle, a mix of worry and stress and self-criticism, as we try to achieve financial stability in work that we can put our heart and souls into. Please look upon us with understanding, and send Your Holy Spirit to be with us, guiding us throughout the many twists and turns along our career paths. Amen.

Please pray for my husband and I for our new business ventures that we have started. My husband and I have both started our businesses and need to pray that they will start off successfully and that we don't have to sell our home we love so much to be able to pay off our debts. Also pray for our beautiful little daughter who keeps us and so many others happy.

Lord, you a magnificent Father, Guide, Friend and Confidante. It is in You and You only that I trust to lead me and guide me without flaw.

I have applied for a position that will challenge me in ways that I have never been challenged, and with it will come great responsibility. I will be serving you for a living and I am excited about knowing You have prepared me for this moment.

I want the job Lord, but I acquiesce to your authority over my life, know that you said that you would whisper in my ear the way to go and that I would hear you and walk in it. Help me to quiet down the noise in my soul, of the world, of my enemies, or those that oppose your work, and walk in Truth. Help me to think on the things that are noble, true, right, and virtuous.

And Lord, let me not get so into routine that I forget my first love: Jesus. Strengthen me as a Your Servant, Wife, Mother, and Friend (in that order). And increase my faith. I believe and trust in you to move those around me to usher me into my purpose and my destiny. Show me how to count the cost, carry my cross, and rejoice all the way home.
Love,

AB
