Sept 13, 05: Light For The Day - "I SAID A PRAYER"

-- Philippians 1:4 
"In all my prayers for all of you,
I always pray with joy."

-------------------------------
"I SAID A PRAYER"

I said a prayer for you my friend,
That your struggles would soon end.

That you would feel God’s peace with you,
As you trust Him each day through.

I prayed that you would feel His love,
Rain down on you from up above.

I asked Him to take care of you,
Fill you with joy and laughter too.

I prayed that He would let you know,
That He will never let you go.

That He’d pour blessings down on you,
And make your grey skies turn to blue.

I prayed that God would give you rest,
And that He’d answer your request.

I asked the Lord to touch your soul,
Fill you with hope and make you whole.

My friend I prayed that you would feel,
His gentle touch reach down and heal.

I said a prayer for you my friend,
My best wishes to you I send.

-- James 5:13 
Are any among you suffering? They should pray. 
Are any cheerful? They should sing songs of praise."

-- Jude 1:20 
But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in
your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit.

-- Romans 8:26-28
26 And the Holy Spirit helps us in our distress. For we don’t even know what we should pray for, nor how we should pray. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words.
27 And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God’s own will.
28 And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them.

-- Colossians 1:3,4
"3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
when we pray for you,
4 because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and
of the love you have for all the saints."

-- Ephesians 3:16,17 
"I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you
with power through His Spirit in your inner being."
17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.
And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love."
