Ministers
Father, in the name of Jesus, we pray and confess that the Spirit of the Lord — the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge — shal1 rest upon __________. We pray that as Your Spirit rests upon __________ He will make him/her of quick understanding because You, Lord, have anointed and qualified him/her to preach the Gospel to the meek, the poor, the wealthy, the afflicted. You have sent __________ to bind up and heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the physical and spiritual captives and the opening of the prison and of the eyes to those who are bound.
__________ shall be called the priest of the Lord. People will speak of him/her as a minister of God. He/she shall eat the wealth of the nations.
We pray and believe that no weapon that is formed against __________ shall prosper and that any tongue that rises against him/her in judgment shall be shown to be in the wrong. We pray that You prosper __________ abundantly, Lord — physically, spiritually and financially.
We confess that __________ holds fast and follows the pattern of wholesome and sound teaching in all faith and love, which is for us in Christ Jesus. __________ guards and keeps with the greatest love the precious and excellently adapted truth entrusted to him/her by the Holy Spirit Who makes His home in __________.
Lord, we pray and believe that each and every day freedom of utterance is given __________, that he/she will open his/her mouth boldly and courageously as he/she ought to do to get the Gospel to the people. Thank you, Lord, for the added strength, which comes superhumanly, that You have given him/her.
We hereby confess that we shall stand behind __________ and undergird him/her in prayer. We will say only that good thing that will edify __________. We will not allow ourselves to judge him/her, but will continue to intercede for him/her and speak and pray blessings upon him/her in the name of Jesus. Thank You, Jesus, for the answers. Hallelujah! Amen.
