thanks for tuning in to this grace for purpose prayer please take a moment to look at the link in the description below and subscribe to our dedicated prayer channel grace for purpose prayers allow me to read a few scriptures before we pray in the Book of Numbers chapter 6 there is a passage of Scripture titled the priestly blessing it begins in verse 22 by saying the Lord said to Moses tell Aaron and his sons this is how you are to bless the Israelites say to them and before we go any further when you hear the
following verse I want you to believe that the Lord is speaking directly to you open your heart and receive this blessing that's in his word and so it reads from verse 24 to 26 the Lord bless you and keep you the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace and if you are wondering what are these blessings or what does it mean for the Lord to make his face shine on you it means that as you listen wherever you are you
are placed under the almighty protection of God our Savior you are blessed to enjoy his favor just like the smile of a loving father on his children you are granted loving mercy because our Lord and Savior King Jesus Christ died and rose again so that your sins may be forgiven you have the privilege the undeserved grace of having the Almighty God say to you that he will supply all of your needs and I want to tell you today that God will console your heart God will look over your family God will look over you God
will give you peace beyond all understanding and more importantly the Lord offers you eternal life so raise up your faith and stand in agreement with me as I pray Heavenly Father we look to you tonight we reach towards you Lord may your name be honored and may your name be lifted higher than any other name we commit all that we are to you Jesus may your mercy and grace be revealed to me your word in Psalms 4 verse 8 says in peace I will lie down and sleep for you alone Lord make me dwell in
safety and father I declare that verse to be true I am believing and speaking a heavenly calmness and serenity of mind in the midst of all of my troubles may your peace overrule my soul Lord I trust and believe that you hear my cry just like your word says in number six tonight I pray that you bless me I pray that you keep me Lord may your face shine on me may your face turn towards me and give me peace may the Holy Spirit invade my surroundings Lord although I may get tired and weary I
