Abigail's Home


Join this HeartCry Prayer - Every Saturday 10:30pm - 12:30am (UK time)

1 Sam 25v14-44 – NIV

Abigail was an example of a woman who was sensitive, prayerful, wise, discerning, quick thinking, responsive, generous, approachable, even tempered, and eloquent. Heaven leaked a secret about David’s future as king to her (v30) she yielded her home and future to the Lord and the Lord rewarded her.

 Prayer
Ø  Father, make me a “home fronter” that is approachable so that heaven can use anyone it so chooses to prompt me into action.
Ø  Grant me wisdom to be quick and decisive in my response.
Ø  Lord, let the wisdom of heaven continue to teach me how to respond to difficult and challenging situations.
Ø  Lord, please give me the resources that I need to be prompt in my spirit and be forthcoming in action.
Ø  Father, give me wisdom not to react foolishly but to act in the way that is befitting of a godly vessel that will glorify You in my home.
Ø  Give me the heart of an intercessor and help me to intercede aright.
Ø  Strengthen me in the place of prayer for my home and for the future generations.
Ø  Lord, put words in my mouth to speak when I need to.
Ø  Father, take Your throne in our homes
Ø  Lord, please accept the offer of our hearts, lives and homes.

Matthew 6v19-20 – NLT 
19 Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 Store your treasures in heaven where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves break in and steal.

Prayer
Ø  Lord Jesus, Great Treasure of heaven, we deposit our little treasures into Your throne room of heaven tonight.
Ø  Sanctify, cleanse, purge, purify them from every rust and moth that had contaminated them up till now.
Ø  Father, please take care of them, permit them to rest in Your unfailing love and loving kindness.
Ø   Treasure of heaven, build Your throne in our homes so that lesser treasures fizzle into insignificance in our hearts, lives and homes.

 Luke 1v17 – KJV
And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

 Prayer
Ø  Father, touch the hearts of the children in this generation.
Ø  Lord, break my heart with the things that break Your heart.
Ø  We prophesy into the lives of our children that they shall be filled with the Spirit of the Lord first for their own lives and as channels for other lives.
Ø  Father, let the disobedient heart in them be replaced with the wisdom of God that they may run after God.
Ø  Most of our youth are quite decisive in their choices; Lord, please affect every choice and decisions they make henceforth.
Ø  Father, please prepare our children/youth for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ø  Father, we lay claim to the cyberworld today as a means of channelling Your gospel to and through our children.

Psalm 76v1-2 – GNB
God is known in Judah; His name is honoured in Israel. He has His home in Jerusalem; He lives on Mount Zion.

 Prayer
Ø  Father, let Jesus be known and acknowledged in and through our homes and in our neighbourhood.
Ø  Let the name of Jesus be honoured in our home community.
Ø  Let Your Cross be placed at the heart of our home.
Ø  Jesus, make Your home in my home.
Ø  Lord, we pray that You will come and sit upon our lives.
Ø  Lord, please reveal to me those things that are key in Your heart.
Ø  We use ourselves as points of contact for our generation, among the women. Father use us as Your rod and battle axe in the place of prayer.
Ø  Let Your kingdom come and be established yet again in our lifetime, O Lord.
