Heart Prayer 1  (Based on Ephesians 1: 17 -19) by Mark Downham:

   Father, my all consuming passion, my burning desire is that I receive more of the fullness and release of the Holy Spirit in my life, the Spirit of wisdom, insight, knowledge, understanding and discernment, and that you draw me further in and further up, from shadow to substance, that you draw me deeper into our love relationship, which is your opening of yourself to me and my submission to you.

   Sovereign Yahshua the Anointed One (Lord Jesus Christ), let there be less of me and more of you.  Cover me with your grace.  Rock of ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee, and experience thou manifesting more of thyself in me.  Please draw me further and deeper into the reality of your presence and into the transformation of your likeness so that my love may be complete!  Through your presence, Holy Spirit, in my spirit, I commit myself to be governed, taught and led by You as You are the Spirit of increasing and unfolding Revelation, who is at work in my life, changing me from glory to glory.

   Holy Spirit, I welcome you, I call to you, I am reaching out for you, I am on fire for your fullness and release in my life, sweep through me, Breath of Yahweh, like a mighty rushing wind, I want to be caught up in your slipstream.  Please remove any influences, obstacles, hindrances, strongholds, barricades, barriers, thoughts, mindsets, worldviews, beliefs, attitudes, intentions, motivations, behaviors, that may resist you, Holy Spirit, from consuming everything, filling me totally, and dwelling in me, from flowing in, through, around, over, under and out through my life – let your fire fall right now and purify me, sanctify me.

   Please grant this to me by your shed blood, Sovereign Yahshua (Lord Jesus), that I may be supernaturally equipped, enabled and released to know you beyond mere rational abstract, informational knowledge.  Open my heart, your word is truth, pour yourself into me and enter in as I enter in to you, as I am with you and in you in the Jordan of Unity.  I want you to grab hold of me, Sovereign Yahshua the Anointed (Lord Jesus Christ), and pull, so that I may know you in an ever deeper relational way as my closest friend, just as I am known by you and deeply loved by you. Holy Spirit be my counselor, be my comforter, be my paraclete – throw your mantle of fire around my shoulders, this eternal weight of glory – let it be all consuming, but not consumed – do not let it fall to the ground.

   Now I ask, Father, that in your loving tenderness, you open the lens of my heart and through the Sovereign Yahshua (Lord Jesus) say, Let there be light! – as the Holy Spirit fills my "inner man," my inner being, my spirit with your love, your word, your presence and your increasing revelation as I draw closer and closer to you.  Quicken your word in me, Sovereign Yahshua (Lord Jesus): you are the Word become flesh at work in me.  Help me to grow more like you.

Fill my heart with your loving kindness, your glorious presence. 

   Sovereign Yahshua (Lord Jesus), let your glory pass by through me, so that I can know the hope, the testimony, the witness and promise of your goodness, power, humility and strength – your calling, purpose and destiny in my life. Thank you for the increasing joy of your presence as you sing and call to us.  Grace me now as I shout back, “Grace, grace to you the cornerstone!”  I want to be plunged into your mighty river flowing through me.

   I declare that I will have an ever-deepening relationship and receive the light of the knowledge of the glory of Yahweh in your face as I see you face to face.  Master, I am the jar of clay in your hands; the treasure is within - this wellspring, this fount of wisdom, insight, understanding and discernment - well up, fill me and overflow - pour your self through me, Holy Spirit, and pour me out in your service; make me a living well of revival.

   I also pray that the light of your word, Sovereign Yahshua (Lord Jesus), will flood my whole being – my "inner man" and my "outer man" – so that I may know and experience the surpassing greatness of your power towards me.  Master, give me a powerful inner life and make me a believing believer.   I call this forth in my life, as your servant and witness and I declare I will follow the Lamb all the days of my life and win for the Lamb the rewards of his suffering, for the honor, glory and greatness of your name, in the earthly and heavenly places, as it is all being summed up in you Sovereign Yahshua the Anointed (Lord Jesus Christ) and you will fill everything.  Amen.

 

 

 

 

Heart Prayer 2  (Based on Ephesians 3: 16, 17):

   My dear Father, my dear Heart, my dearest loving Dad, out of the depths of your loving embrace, your center, your substance, your abundance, the very life of your glory, your very self, please hug your life into me, please breathe your life into me, please pour your life into me, please give me your father’s blessing, I need more of you, please give me your heart. My ever-loving Dad, please grant me your inward strength, your inward passion, your inward wisdom, your inward vision, your inward righteousness, your inward holiness, your inward purity, your powerful inner life (of your Unity in me and me in you), your infectious and explosive laughing leaping joy, your ever-present presence.

   Through your abiding presence of the Holy Spirit in me, through the faith I have expressed, through the grace and mercy I have received, through the unquenchable yearning for the desire of nations, through the calling on my life, through the words spoken over me – I am grabbing hold of you, I am holding on to you, I am clinging on to you, I am being made just like you, I am becoming just like you –be the eternal flame of love in me, be the sacrificial aroma of love in me, be the paraclete – burning heart of love in me, be all things summed up in love in me.

   Sovereign Yahshua the Anointed One (Lord Jesus Christ), dwell in my heart in ever-increasing and unfolding love, in your incarnational presence love, in everything love, in every way love, in every blessing love, in every answered prayer love, in every judgment love, in every act of justice love, in every cleft opened for me love, in your ever-abundant provision love, in my total and absolute dependence love, in my hiddenness love, in manifestation love, in the silent praise of reversed thunder love, in the shadow of the cross love, in every life laid down love, in every fiery trial love, in every temptation overcome love, in every intention love, in every thought love, in every purpose love, in every inward conviction love, in every burst of insight and discernment love, in every ray of light love, in every impartation love, in every quickening love, in every breaking and yielding love, in humility of spirit love, in every stronghold demolished love, in every chain broken love, in every word spoken love, in every heart-healed love, in me in you and in you in me love, in us in each other love, in unconditional love be love in and through me.  Amen

 

Benediction

   May our gracious Sovereign and loving heavenly Father deepen the channels of your heart and enlarge the borders of your spirit that you may be filled with all the fullness of Him who fills all things in everything.  May you, by faith, touch the edges of His glory and skirt the crest of His infinitude, and quietly sink, melt, and disappear into the wonder of the glory of the love of His limitless heart. May His grace and peace softly consume you, enfold you, and infuse you; and may you come to the eternal rest of Yahshua the Anointed (Jesus Christ), assuredly knowing the sweet silence of His still and calm presence, which is His eternal light, and our everlasting joy.
