40 DAY INTERCESSION for 20 somethings

[luthiengirlie]

There's a heavy burden on my heart to pray for my genearation.. twenty something. Myself and others keep talking about "what are we going to do?"

There are so many unknowns career and relationship wise. YHWH has put it on my heart that we need to Intercede for 30 days. He is going to move greatly but I would love for you all to participate.

Dear YHWH,

My Hearts Cry is out to you. I would love to say beautiful plaitudes but, My heart is crying out! So many young people that are serving You don't know what to do! We don't know what to do! We need a mighty move from You, I'm asking for bigger Faith and bigger Dreams. Show is Your Spirit now and 2011... Abba Father I feel an urgency.. Please Answer our uncertanties and our hurting hearts. In Yeshua's name. Amein

You truly have the heart of an Intercessor. You heard God's voice and you are obeying what He has asked of you.

When do you plan to start and how? Thanks to provide details... I agree on intercession for this generation

There's a heavy burden on my heart to pray for my genearation.. twenty something. Myself and others keep talking about "what are we going to do?"

There are so many unknowns career and relationship wise. YHWH has put it on my heart that we need to Intercede for 30 days. He is going to move greatly but I would love for you all to participate.

 

[luthiengirlie]

Honestly there are so many unknows. I am praying what He puts on my heart... I just would love others to participate praying for things they see in their 20 summin kids/peers that we struggle with. One area that we definetly struggle with are our careers. How are we 20 somethings going to support ourselves when jobs are shrinking..

 

[Laela]

Ahh... I see. I do see a great need for direction concerning careers and jobs, but in a different way. The job market is merely adjusting to what's going on in the economy. When I graduated college (don't ask when please.. ) things were not like this. You could get a job right after graduating..now, nothing is guaranteed. People with degrees up the wazoo can't get a job, are over-qualified, etc. Recruiters are putting the onus on candidates now, so more is expected of the recruits who want to be recruited. No one is loyal to anyone. But guess what? We are faith people and in this world, not of it. So our loyalty is with God Almighty. Which is why I agree on prayer...that young people (and even older folks who are job seeking) will receive guidance from Our Father, on whom to send resumes to, whom to speak with, even whom to trust. I really truly believe He is our ONLY source, our employer, our boss... we just need to ask Him, according to His will. Because only He knows where we need to be, to use the gifts/talents He gave us. Faith people get jobs in a 'bad economy'.

 

[luthiengirlie]

Laela You worded it perfectly.. I'd be honored if you led that in prayer.

I know another concern that us 20 something have is marriage.. A lot of us want to get married but it seems less and less realistic as people get more and more..selfish

 

[luthiengirlie]

Laela I would be honored if you led us in prayer in that area...

There's a concern concerning marriages and true relationships as well... Are we foing to get married? Is a question I often am asked

 

[luthiengirlie]

YHWH HAS LED ME to 3 wonderful scriptures.

Jer 3:4- 4 Have you not lately called to Me, "My Father.
You were [my] friend in my youth.



Jerm 1:5-7: powerful ! :5 I chose you before I formed you in the womb;
I set you apart before you were born.
I appointed you a prophet to the nations.

6 But I protested, "Oh no, Lord, God! Look, I don't know how to speak since I am [only] a youth."
7 Then the Lord said to me:

Do not say, "I am [only] a youth,"
for you will go to everyone I send you to
and speak whatever I tell you.

Ecc. 11:9: 9 Rejoice, young man, while you are young,
and let your heart be glad in the days of your youth.


Let the Joy of the hearts of 20 somethings be Yeshua!

 

[sidney]

I have been feeling the same thing. I think God wants us to pray for wisdom for the 20 somethings. Ladies, among your prayers please pray for wisdom for the 20 somethings.

2 Corinthians 10:5

"Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ"

I find myself having to refer to this over and over when I am fearful. Sometimes I am so fearful about the completion of school, relationships (or lack of), financial problems, etc that I feel paralyzed by the fear. Thank you for doing this intercession. I know I need it.

 

[Laela]

Luthiengirlie,

I had to sleep on your post, so I hope you don't think I was ignoring you... I'd be happy to join you in prayer..the leading is definitely yours

My 20-something nephew I haven't seen since 2006 is visiting and I'm excited to see him. Yet I'm prayerful that he'll find his way in life with God's help..he just has to submit to God. I've got two 20-something year-old nieces that are unmarried moms... another niece starting college...another is wayward and doing her own thing. erplexed All I can do is be there for them and be the best example so they can see a life dedicated to God is a good life ! They all think I'm crazy..but let something happen, I get a prayer request... I don't mind at all, because I know the battle is raging for the minds of this generation. I believe God has a lot in store... we need to keep them lifted up and keep them encouraged.... :Rose:

God bless you, sis!

Laela You worded it perfectly.. I'd be honored if you led that in prayer.

[luthiengirlie]

Yes I believe that there's a battle. A huge spiritual battle. For the hearts, minds,souls of my generation.. We are under stress more than ever before.. More fearful of the future than ever before. Including those who believe in Yeshua. So my prayer is this

YHWH, we glorify You, we give You worship, you are our Shield against fear, Our Shepard in life, Our provider, Our Sanctifier! We ask that You forgive our sins in the name of Yeshua. We ask that u guide and protect us and draw an entire generation of 20 somethings closer to You oh Perfect Love! You said in your Word that Perfect Love casts out fear! Remind each and everyone of us that and may we Boldly walk in 2011 in Your perfect love. Show us how and what we need to do. In Yeshua's name. Amein

True , there is a definite attack on marriage. The very definition of it. B/c the enemy knows when he attacks marriages, he attacks the very foundation of society-traditional families. If you look at the fall of ALL of the previous great societies it was the gradual errosion of morals combined with attacks on marriage and a false belief in human intellect that put the nail in their proverbial coffin. Well, that's why they are history and in ruins. Of some, they were utterly destroyed for their wickedness. There is nothing new under the sun. Those folks ahd the same concerns we have. Anyway, you are in this world and not of it as Laela said. Truly you are. Renew your mind to Kingdom thinking. There is nothing too hard for God. All power belongs to him. Marriage was his idea. It is very sacred and very viable to him. Probably even moreso. He is still the God who changes not. Do not be conformed to the statistics of this world (AA women cannot have long natural hair, there's a shortage of men-how many husbands do you need afterall?, no one marries AA women, you need to test the waters b/f committing to someone, a submissive woman is a weak woman, AAs will always get the short end of the stick, and other LIES not to be repeated and rehashed outloud or in your mind) but be transformed. You are more than a statistic! There is a whole other more superior set of rules we are governed by. They tell me I don't have to participate in this messy world's follies! Shake that mess off and KIM like Paul did when he was bitten by that deadly viper. Don't allow stinkin' thinkin' and your emotions to dictate what your God can do. If marriage is in God's will for you, it's coming 'lil sis.
Psa113:5-6
5 Who is like the LORD our God,
the One who sits enthroned on high,
6 who stoops down to look
on the heavens and the earth?

I live and die by that scripture. I often combine it with this one when faced with disheartening thoughts.
2 Tim 1:7
7For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
I examine my thoughts as if I had a butterfly(my thoughts) captured in a net. I pull them out and look at them. I meditate and think about where that thought came from. When did it first appear was it Ms. Johnson in the 5th grade? Mom? Prof. Smith during my junior year? Bitter old single Ms. Could neva keep a man if he was velcroed to her but still wanted to give me advice? Lowdown trifling ex BF who hurt me when I wasn't wise enough to see my worth in the Lord? Who? What? Where? If it is not giving me a sense of power, love, or a sound mind, then some castin-nin down-ni-nin is about to start going forth.
Our minds are like fertile soil in the sense that they will grow whatever kind of seeds are planted there. Pluck up the junk/weeds. Plant some good stuff. Then expect a bountiful harvest from the Lord of the harvest.

Ahh Prudent1 that was a WORD! YIPEE raw and real! I pray it blesses others like it has me

 

[DreamLife]

Thank you Prudent1...I know that's going to be a key to new life is having my mind renewed, stoping the negative thinking and casting down those thoughts as soon as they come up. This thread is a blessing!

:blowkiss: You are welcome! It is such a delight to see you and the other 20 somethings in here b/c you guys are the next generation who will be tasked with carrying the torch long after 'ol Prudent1 has stepped out of this 'lil cafe au lait colored earth suit in exchange for immortality:woohoo2:! It is commendable that you are seeking God. In Him will your lives be complete in every way you desire as long as you stay in his will. You all are a blessing to my life as well.

 

[luthiengirlie]

Another Prayer:

Abba Father,
Help cold hearts return to you, angry hurting hearts find You. The 20 somethings who are dealing with anger due to childhood pain and life memories and are showing that anger destructively.... Help us to run to You for healing of that Pain.. And have a large movement among that. Black, white, latino, asian, native american peoples. Let there be a MASS movement of us turning away from our sins and pain and turn to You. So much so that the older people wonder what's going on and the Younger kids are desiring to be like their older peers.. Serving YHWH! May we all wake up in Yeshua's MIGHTY NAME! Amein!

[phynestone]

Thank you so much for this thread. For the past few days, I feel like God has been tugging at my heart concerning some aspects of my life. I feel like I am being tempted in a great way and I am trying SO hard not to give in. I just feel like so much is riding on this.

I don't know about the other 20-somethings, but I have personally felt tremendous pressure to be the perfect woman. Be smart, but not too smart. Be beautiful, but not so much that people forget to take you seriously. Have a career, but remember it always comes second to a man's and blah. All of these negative stats around us. The two things that give me hope are God and the women on this board. I am so happy to hear of more engagements and marriages, people obtaining higher education, personal fitness taken seriously and celebrating our accomplishments.

I want to thank you and all of the other women participating in this intercession. I will take these things to the Lord in prayer.

I am touching and agreeing. As a 20 something year old, I must say that many of us are lost. I think the problem may be that we have put the cart before the horse, we seek all of life's great things before seeking His Kingdom FIRST. We end up frustrating ourselves and are ready to give up before we even start.

Praying ladies, please keep my nephew in your prayers..he's 21 and bipolar (wrongly diagnosed as schizophrenic)..he's spending time with me and I'm experiencing his ups/downs..it took some adjusting to see him this way and to understand his behavior. I don't ever know what to expect. But I love that kid. Anger, laughter, frustration, all wrapped into one... sometimes I'm smiling because he's very funny, sometimes I feel sad for him when he can't find his things or forget what I told him. I believe in his deliverance; I believe his mother will give her life to God, no only to save her soul but for the sake of her son -- to release that tremendous blessing that belongs to them! It's not mine. ... So until then, I speak this all the time -- my nephew belongs to God.

Please keep in prayer all 20-somethings (and others in this generation) who have been diagnosed with some mental disorder or who are just really struggling in their spirituality...the enemy can't have them! He wants their minds so bad, he'll stop at nothing.. yet he forgot one thing:

God can save them all!

[Laela]

He's right there with you through it all.... you're lifted up today...ADHD doesn't define who you are, Yeshua does. Praise His name for this blessed assurance ! :Rose:

[luthiengirlie]

Abba Father,

I pray for us twenty somethings.. I ask that you forgive our busyness and help us to carve out an intimate time with you. So that You can speak to us and Help us Know YOu better and to Hear the wonderful things You have planned us. help us twenty somethings.. myself included to have an more intimate sense of Your Word and who You are. I pray for us twenty somethings who have mental disabilites that make it hard for us to focus on You and Your essence all that You are. Calm our spirits O YHWH so that we can focus. Help us to politely establish boundaries when it comes to that You and Us time because there are authorties that try to shake that time. Help us to be consistent in all things since consisitency is a huge problem in our generation.
In Yeshua's name I pray.
Amein
