INTRODUCTION

by Marsa Harve

îck up your Bîbe. You are odîng în your and te greatest P prayer book ever wrîtten. ït contaîns everytîng you woud ever want or need to pray or someone.

For te next 366 days, you are goîng to mîne te Word o God or treasure verses you can pray or yourse and oters. You wî be abe to say te words conIdenty because tey wî be te very Words o God tat contaîn God’s wî. By te end o te year, you wî be în te oy abît o Indîng Bîbe verses to pray, so or te rest o your îe, you can constanty pray God’s Words back to Hîm.

Prayer îs a gît and a prîvîege rom te ORD. ït îs amazîng te God o a creatîon not ony gîves you permîssîon to tak to Hîm but desîres to converse wît you, to be în întîmate nonstop communîcatîon wît you. Proverbs 3:32 says te ORD îs întîmate wît te uprîgt.ïntîmateîn tîs verse carrîes wîtîn îts meanîng te îdea o sîttîng on a couc wît a rîend and engagîng în rîc persona conversatîon. God îs drawîng you înto tat kînd o reatîonsîp wît Hîm.

God îs aso caîng you to be a prayer warrîor or te sake o oters. ïsaîa 62:6-7 says God as appoînted watcmen wo a day and a nîgt never keep sîent. hey keep takîng and takîng to God about Jerusaem. hey remînd God o Hîs promîses, o Hîs good Word, o Hîs good name. hey reuse to back down or take a break, and tey do not gîve God rest. hese watcmen are tîreessy determîned to pray untî God does wat He promîsed to do, and tat îs to estabîs Jerusaem and make er a praîse în te eart.

he ORD îs an estabîser.Estabîsîs a poweru word. ït means to make stabe and constant, to be Irm and astened, to be setted and secure, to be dîrected and Ixed arîgt, to be endurîng and steadast.

ïn te Bîbe, Jerusaem îs not te ony tîng God as or wî estabîs. Oters are: \ he eart—Psam 119:90; Jeremîa 33:2; ïsaîa 45:18 \ he mountaîns—Psam 65:6 \eavens—Proverbs 3:19; 8:27 he \ Equîty—Psam 99:4 \aîtuness—Psam 89:2 Hîs \ Hîs trone and sovereîgnty—Psam 103:19 \ he steps o a good man— Psam 37:23; 40:2; 119:133; Proverbs 16:9 \cîdren and descendants o te he ORD’s servants—Psam 102:28 \work o your ands—Psam 90:17 he \ he makîng and asîonîng (estabîsîng) o you—Psam 119:73 \spîrît în you—Psam 51:10 A steadast \ways—Psam 119:5 Your \ Your pans—Proverbs 16:3 \ You în rîgteousness—ïsaîa 54:14 \ You în trut—2 Peter 1:12 \eart wîtout bame în oîness— Your 1 hessaonîans 3:11-13 \caîng to Hîs eterna gory în Crîst— Your 1 Peter 5:8-11

God wants to estabîs you and tose you ove. God învîtes you to be part o te estabîsment by prayîng or tose He îs estabîsîng. Wo în your îe does God need to make stabe and steadast în rîgteousness, trut, and oîness? Do you ove tat person enoug

to pray or tem untî God estabîses tem and makes tem a praîse în te eart? Pîcture te watcmen on te was as tey keep watc over Jerusaem. he watcmen can see wat îs goîng on însîde te cîty, and tey can see approacîng enemîes. From teîr posîtîon on te was, tey are îteray prayîng over Jerusaem. heîr prayers ofer protectîon to te înabîtants o te cîty. îke seperds keepîng watc over teîr Lock by nîgt (uke 2:8), pray over tose you ove and pîcture te protectîve and o God coverîng tem în answer to your prayers. ï began prayîng Bîbe verses over my amîy wen our cîdren were babîes. Everyday ï woud pray at east one verse over tem. One o te verses ï ave prayed undreds o tîmes îs: “ï am conIdent o tîs very tîng, tat He wo began a good work în you wî perect ît untî te day o Crîst Jesus” (Pîîppîans 1:6). My usband and ï ave been marrîed or 30 years; our cîdren ove te ORD and are marrîed to spouses wo ove Jesus. hey ave cîdren wo are beîng raîsed to ove and serve God aîtuy. God îs beîng true to Hîs Word and perectîng Hîs work în my amîy. ït îs a prîvîege to be a watcman on te wa or my usband, cîdren, and grandcîdren. ït îs a joy to see God uIîng Hîs promîses. However, beware ît îs not an easy job to be a watcman. here ave been seasons în my amîy’s îe wen a ï coud do was unker down în te Word o God and pray, pray, pray or God to cange sîtuatîons and peope’s tougts, earts, and attîtudes. Everytîng around me was screamîng, “hîs îs goîng to turn out bad!” God taugt me ow to read and pray Hîs Word în aît over te sîtuatîon. He taugt me ow to pray wîtout ceasîng, ow to pray beîevîng God’s wî woud be done, ow to pray untî God was gorîIed. ï am caengîng you to ask God or wom He as appoînted you to be a aîtu, prayeru watcman. Are you wîîng to take no rest or yourse and gîve God no rest untî He estabîses tat person? ï
