I Saw the Lord

In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted, and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphs, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. And they were calling to one another: "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory." At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke. "Woe to me!" I cried. "I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty."

Isaiah 6:1-5

Heavenly Father,

Isaiah saw you seated on your throne in all your glory. At that point, he realized how unworthy he was, because he understood how holy you are. How great it would be to see you the way Isaiah did. The angels said that the whole earth is full of your glory. You have not hidden yourself from us, yet we so often turn a blinded eye. Help us, Lord to open our eyes to see your glory around us. Help us to be aware of our own sin and repent and be willing to go and do what you want us to do. We are the temple - we should reflect your glory in us!

I want to pray for my Sunday school class. First, for Ivan and Kathy. I pray you would be with them. Bless them for stepping out to do what you have put on his heart to do. Comfort them as they have been used to being close to Jason, Jessica and the baby. Encourage them in the hard times to push through and remember the promises you have given them in their time in Englewood.

I pray for Travis - that you would help him at work to be the witness that his workers are looking for. Show them who you are through him on the job. I pray for Taz and Pat with their physical problems. I pray that you would touch them and bring healing. I thank you for the testimony they have.

I pray for the mother and son that Jim talked about who both have cancer. I pray they would be a comfort to each other, but I also pray that you would do a miracle in their bodies. I pray you would minister to their minds, bodies and souls.

I pray for Betty as she will be having surgery in a few days. I continue to pray for those who went for healing and deliverance last Sunday. I pray that you would continue to heal and deliver. I pray for Kelly as she fights an uphill battle with the life she is trying to leave behind. I am thankful to see her making the effort by her desire to attend church. Meet her right where she is, Lord, as she reaches out to you for help.

I also continue to pray for my brother as he continues his job search. Keep him safe as he travels to the churches he is interviewing with. Make the choice clear to him where you want him to go. Help us all know that you are with him.

I thank you for what you are doing in my back. I believe you are healing me. I will continue to pray and believe that you are able!

I love you, Lord. I thank you for hearing me when I call out to you with my prayers and my praise. I pray that my praise would be pleasing and that my heart would be lined up with yours as I make my requests known to you.

In Jesus Name,
Amen
