Prayer Starter - Friday, September 19, 2025 “Here Am I, Send Me”



In Isaiah 6:8, the prophet hears the Lord asking, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Without hesitation, Isaiah replies, “Here am I. Send me.”

This verse is a powerful picture of surrender and obedience. Isaiah had just seen the holiness of God and was aware of his own unworthiness. But once he was cleansed and forgiven, his heart was ready to respond. His words remind us that God isn’t just looking for the most talented, the most experienced, or the most qualified—He is looking for those willing to go where He sends them.

Our world is full of people who need hope, love, and truth. Sometimes God’s call means going to another country, but often it simply means being faithful where we are—sharing kindness with a neighbor, offering encouragement at work, or serving in our local church. When we say, “Here am I, send me,” we are giving God permission to use our lives for His purposes, no matter how small or big the assignment may be.


Heavenly Father, thank You for calling us to be part of Your work. Like Isaiah, we stand before You humbled and forgiven. Make our hearts willing and ready to respond to Your call. Show us where You are sending us today—whether across the street or across the world—and give us courage to go. Help us to trust that when You send us, You also go with us. Here we are, Lord. Use us for Your glory. 

In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

Prayer Starter Monday 4-7-25

Today's Prayer Starter Good morning! As we begin this five day journey of praying specifically to build our relationship with God, let's start with a prayer of adoration. In Psalm 8 , David prays a prayer of adoration.  "O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babies and infants, You have established strength because of yor foes, to still the enemy and the avenger." You can read the entire Psalm, but this morning use David's prayer to help you tell God why you believe His name is majestic in all the earth.  Try it! Still need some help.  Here is my morning adoration prayer to God: O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!  You have given me a good night's rest, good health, and a desire to spread the love of Jesus today.  Walk with me O Lord and let your light shine from me today!

Prayer Starter - Thursday, June 26, 2025 Pray for a Helicopter

Good Morning, I hope you won't be offended, but I want to share an old joke with you that drives home an important point regarding what the Bible tells us about prayer and trusting in God. A religious man was trapped on the roof of his house during a bad flood. He prayed to God to save him. Before the waters were too high, a neighbor drove by and offered to take him in his truck before the water rose. He declined the offer and said "God will save me."  As the water rose, vehicles could no longer drive by and a Fire & Rescue crew came by in a boat. Again, an offer for rescue and again, the religious man said, he would wait upon the Lord.  Finally the water is destroying the house and it is near the lower levels of the roof. Another rescue attempt this time by helicopter, offers to whisk him away to safely and he declines, relying on God to save him, only to die in the great storm. In heaven, the man confronts God and says, "Why didn't You save me?" To whi...

Prayer Starter - Friday, August 29, 2025 "Friday Night Lights"

Image
It's Friday - Game Day.  Friday Night Lights For many of us, Friday night lights bring back memories of gathering with family and friends at the local football field. The lights shining against the night sky signaled more than just a game—it was a place of community, excitement, and hope. In life, we also walk through nights that feel dark. The worries of health, family, or the unknown can weigh heavily. But just as stadium lights brighten the field, the light of Christ shines into our lives. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” ( John 8:12 ). Dear Heavenly Father, many of us are long past the days of Friday night lights; others of us, have a game tonight. Be with us as we are a community - we are family. Be with our students and keep them safe on the field and off. For the rest of us, probably happy those days are behind us, help us to remember Your Son Jesus, is the light of this world. Satan...
