Pastoral Prayer For The Genesis Ministry 3-22-2021
Reflection of the Heart
Our youth are the future of our church, city, state, nation, and world. Therefore, we must pray for them daily. As believers, we declare that our Youth are the righteousness of God! We declare that they walk in obedience and they are growing in the wisdom and stature of the Lord.
​
Our God, we exalt you and praise your Holy Name forever and ever. You are great and most worthy of praise. No one can measure your greatness. Each generation will tell its children of your mighty acts and will proclaim your power. Lord, you are good to everyone and you shower compassion on all of your creation. We praise you for your mighty works. We praise your unequaled greatness. Father, we thank you for the Genesis Ministry. Thank you to Sister Griffin and all the leaders of the Genesis Ministry. Thank you for protecting our Youth and blessing them In all areas of their lives.
​
Father, help our Youth to obey your commands and seek you first in all they do. We decree that the Genesis Ministry will obey you with all their hearts and walk uprightly before you. We confess that they are blessed and all things are being added to them. We pray that loyalty and kindness will not leave them, but they will tie them around their necks and write them deep within their hearts. As they do this, we pray that they will find favor with God and people, and they will earn a good reputation. We pray that they will grow into the full knowledge of Jesus Christ and confess with their mouths that He is their Lord and savior. Help our youth to understand how wide, how long, how high, and how deep God’s love is for each of them. Help them earnestly seek truth and obtain favor. Lord, give them knowledge and skills and wisdom so that the world will look on them and know that they are blessed.
​
Collectively, as a Church Family, we confess that the Genesis Ministry is mighty in the land. We declare that every member of the Genesis Ministry will fulfill God’s will and purpose for their lives.
​
Holy Spirit, we ask you to fill our youth with spiritual understanding. Please help them to choose Godly friends and bless their relationships with their parents and loved ones. Turn the hearts of parents and youth toward each other. Give our parents wisdom and patience as they reach their youth your Word. Holy Spirit, teach our parents your principles for rearing their sons and daughters. Remind our youth to follow Godly instructions. Keep them so they will not defile themselves with the ways of the world. Help them to make the right choices, and activate your fruit of the Spirit in their lives, protect and bless them at school and on their jobs.
​
In the name of Jesus Christ, I decree and declare it all done In Jesus Name, Amen.

Monday Morning Prayer- 3-8-21
Pastor Perry Simmons, Jr.
Dear Heavenly Father: we want to thank you for watching over us all night long, and waking us up this morning with a reasonable portion of health and strength. When we arose this morning, we were in our right minds and we want to thank you. Thank you that Covid 19 did not visit our house nor did we have to visit the doctor or the hospital. Thank you, Lord, for your provisions of food, clothes, and shelter. Thank you for your love, grace, and mercy. Thank you for sending your son Jesus who sacrificed His life that we might have a right to the tree of life. Thank you for adopting us into your royal family and for making us heirs and joint-heirs with Jesus Christ. Please keep us safe this week as we go forth to do your will in making disciples. Bless us so we can be a blessing to others. In Jesus' name. Amen
Monday Prayer 1/25/21
Pastor Perry Simmons, Jr.
Dear God: Because of lies about the 2020 election, we are a divided nation. when we realize the extent of our differences and the passion of our convictions, we are torn in two.
Because we are also a United country, called to transfer power in a peaceful way, called to trust the voice of the people and respect the leadership that our democracy chooses. We are a United States, called to work together, to ride together, to fall together, to work together, to listen and learn from each.
Because we are also a faithful people in this nation, we are United in you and as Christians, we proclaim that we are United in Christ. We are people who are part of something bigger than our differences, bigger than our candidates, bigger than the knots in our stomachs or the smiles on our faces, bigger than our political parties, even bigger than our nationality.
We are called to follow Jesus in word, thoughts, and deeds. So we pray that you unite us in our healing, unite us in our learning and listening, unite us in our prayers for President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris and all of our leaders as they embrace new challenges, new roles, and new rules.
Unite us in our calling to commit ourselves to your message of hope. Unite us in our journey as we step beyond the campaign season and step into the light that you call us toward.
We look forward with hope to the day when we can see Jesus face to face. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen.

Monday’s Prayer From the Pastor’s Desk
12/21/2020
​
Lord, we thank you for coming to earth so you could redeem us. When we think of the extent to which you were willing to go in order to save us, it makes us want to shout, to celebrate, and to cry with thankfulness. You loved us so much, and we are so grateful for that love. Without you, we would still be lost and in sin. But because of everything you have done for us, today we are free; our lives are blessed; Jesus is our Lord; Heaven is our home, and Satan has no right to control us. We will be eternally thankful to you for everything you did to save us. We pray this prayer in Jesus’ name! Amen

Dear God our Heavenly Father:
You are the source of every blessing, the judge of every nation, and the hope of earth and heaven: We pray to you after that important election that you just led us through and the runoff election that we must go through in January for the United state senators of Georgia.
We call to mind the best that is within us: That we live under God, that we are indivisible,
that liberty and justice extend to all.
We acknowledge the sin that runs through our history as a nation: The displacement of native peoples, racial injustice, economic inequity, regional separation. And we profess a deep and abiding gratitude for the goodness of ordinary people who have made sacrifices,
who have sought opportunities, who have journeyed to this land as immigrants
and strengthened its promise in successive generations, who have found freedom on these shores, and defended this freedom at tremendous cost.
Be with us in the days that are near. Remind us that your ways are not our ways, that your power and might transcend the plans of every nation, that you are not mocked.
Let those who follow your Son Jesus Christ be a peaceable people in the midst of division.
Send your Spirit of peace, justice, and freedom upon us, break down the walls of political partisanship, and make us one.
Give us wisdom to walk in your ways, courage to speak in your name, and humility to trust in your providence. In Jesus Name we pray;
Amen.
Monday Prayer
11/23/2020
Heavenly Father, I call on you right now in a special way, it is through your power that we were created. Every breath we take, every morning we wake, and every moment of every hour, we live under your power.
Father, we ask you now to touch us with that same power. For you created us from nothing, you can certainly recreate us. Fill us with the healing power of your spirit. Cast out anything that should not be in us.
Mend what is broken. Root out any unproductive cells. Open any blocked arteries or veins and rebuild any damaged areas. Remove all inflammation and cleanse any infection. Let the warmth of your healing love pass through our bodies to make new unhealthy areas so that our bodies will function the way you created them to function.
And Father, restore us to full health in mind and body so that we may serve you the rest of our lives. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

God of all nations; Father of the human family; We give you thanks for the freedom we exercise and the many blessings of democracy we enjoy in these United States of America. We ask for your protection and guidance for all who devote themselves to the common good, working for justice and peace at home and around the world.
We lift up all our duly elected officials and public servants, those who will serve us as president, legislators, judges, law enforcement, and military personal. Heal us from Our differences and unite us, O Lord, with a common purpose, dedication, and commitment to achieve liberty and justice in the years ahead for all people, and especially those who are most vulnerable in our midst.
In Jesus Name, Amen

Dear Father,
The weekend has passed and we are incredibly thankful for the rest you provided. Whether busy or resting, you refreshed our souls. You are so good. Help us remember that time with you propels our spirit forward, And especially today, it’s Monday, Lord. Your Word tells us There is a time for everything; But Mondays are tough- just getting back to the grind. Will you provide the mindset that every good and perfect gift comes from you? May we remember that Mondays are part of the gift of life. And may we embrace the day for all the opportunities you have for us. Because we know that all things work together for good for those who love you. And we love you, Jesus. Amen.

​
Heavenly Father, we come before you, thanking you for waking us up this Monday morning to embrace the sunlight that comes down from the heavens.
Thank you for giving us the health and strength we need to overcome every stronghold in our lives. And thank you for loving us unconditionally in the time we failed you.
Father, we pray that your Holy Presence draws near to us. Wrap us in your loving arms and never let us go. Cover us under the precious blood of the lamb. Cleanse us of anything that is displeasing to you. Renew our mind, body, and soul, as we worship you and you alone.
While this COVID 19 pandemic is raging, restore your tranquility and peace upon us so that we may not be moved. Work from within us Lord, to bring a revival in our lives. When we feel broken, transform our spirit so we can emerge whole again. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Monday's Prayer
9/21/2020
Almighty God, as we come before you this Monday, we come, as always, with a mixture of praise and thanksgiving, joy, and concerns. We praise your name and thank you for all our many blessings. In this time of social distancing, we are learning to appreciate those activities in which we cannot participate and long to do so. At the same time, we are leading (or relearning) activities which have become very meaningful for us. We give thanks for the opportunity to connect with family and friends with whom we may have lost contact. We are thankful for the many people who graciously reach out to us with offers of assistance. While this is not a set of circumstances non of us would choose or could have imagined, we are thankful that, in many cases, we are able to experience the very best in persons; some of whom we barely knew before now.
As most of us remain sheltered in our homes, we pray your guiding presence with those who are working so hard to fight the deadly virus which has upended all our lives. We lift to you the doctors, nurses, EMT’s, hospital administrators, attendants, persons working fervently to develop treatments and a vaccine to increase the survival rate and allow us to eventually return to our way of life without fear of contracting this disease.
Thank you for all the service workers; persons we may have never noticed before, who are working around the clock to help us keep food on the table; our lights, heat, and water on; our cars running; our communities safe; our mail delivered; to enable us to shop for the things we need for the safety of our homes; for drivers who deliver what we can't get for ourselves; these and so many more who work behind the scenes. For all of those who work so we don’t need to, we give you thanks.
We are mindful that there are increasing numbers of persons who have lost their jobs due to the effects of the virus. We ask that you guide us to learn who these persons are and help us find ways to help support them in their time of need.
As our thought turns to the prospect of, someday, opening up our churches, schools, and our economy, we ask you to grant us patience to persevere in our current situation while, at the same time, plan ahead for how we might change our living habits to safely navigate whatever our new normal might be.
We lift to you all those persons currently suffering from the Coronavirus. We pray that they might all be healed swiftly and completely. We ask your peace and comfort for the families and friends of those who have died from the disease.
We are mindful that there are others who are sick from other causes. We pray that they might experience swift and complete healing and be able to return home soon.
We pray for Shiloh and believers all over the world. Grant us the knowledge, wisdom and courage to faithfully witness for you.
Lord, we commend our leaders to you, all those persons in every sector of our society who have some challenging roles to play. Please grant them the skills and abilities they need to excite their responsibilities.
We pray all these things in Jesus’ name, Amen.
