| You are made complete. As I conclude my series on knowing that we have been made complete, I pray that we would be able to fully understand what this means. No longer do we have to fight the world, no longer do we have to compare ourselves to others, and no longer do we have to struggle with life with our own strength. It is a daily reminder that we have made complete in God. Some day it is easy to remember, and other days when we face storms, we may forget. Are we going to be the ones that forget and are swept away? Or, are we going to be the ones that stand firm? God has given us the Bible. I pray that we would recognise that we need to read the Word daily in order to realise that we have been made complete. God reveals countless men and women who were flawed, yet used. God also reveals countless men and women who were headed the right track, yet they failed in the end. What is your story? What will be said of you in the end? Psalm 22:27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him, for dominion belongs to the Lord and He rules over the nations. © 2009 Lee Shaun Tzen. www.everynation.org.sg archive: www.shauntzen.blogspot.com |

Prayers for the youth and marriages – 3 Jan 2009
| Prayers for the youth and marriages – 3 Jan 2009 Ezekiel 34:16 I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak, but the sleek and the strong I will destroy. I will shepherd the flock with justice. | |
| As we continue to pray for ever youth and every marriage in this world. We pray that this verse would be instilled in our hearts. Father, we pray for a generation of youths that will not follow the generations of past. We pray that every generation would learn from the mistakes of the previous, and they would learn to master the strengths. Lord God, we pray that youths today would realize the importance of being shepherds in their generation. We pray for an awakening to take place in the hearts of every youth right now. We pray that the gift of selflessness would be the fingerprint of every youth, and the youths to come. In your name we pray, amen. © 2009 Lee Shaun Tzen | Father, we pray for a prophetic word to fall upon every marriage right now. We pray that You would speak to all marriages and future marriages through visions. Father, it is one thing to get a prophetic word, but it is another to obey. Right now in the name of Jesus we pray for obedient hearts. We pray that marriages would move to the rhythm of Your voice and Yours alone. We pray against complacent hearts. Hearts that are weak and unstable. We pray for confident marriages despite the storms, despite the trials, despite the hardships. Father, right now we pray for godly marriages that will shine their light always. In Jesus name we pray, amen. |
Praying For The Nations and for the poor – 3 Jan 2009
Praying For The Nations and for the poor – 3 Jan 2009
Ezekiel 34:4 You have not strengthened the weak or healed the sick or bound up the injured. You have not brought back the strays or searched for the lost. You have ruled them harshly and brutally.
Father, as we pray for every nation right now and for the poor, we pray right now that this verse in Ezekiel 34:4 would be a prophetic command to us in this generation. Let this word be our prayer in 2009.
Help us father. Help us to care for the poor, the weak, the hungry, the sick, the injured, and the lost. Father, we pray that 2009 would be a year of change. We pray that the clouds that cover our eyes would be removed. Let Your light shine through every nation. Lead the way O God. Lead and direct our steps forward.
In the name of Jesus we pray that You would define the meaning of top priority right now in every nation. It seems that individualism has taken reign. However, right now we pray that selflessness would take top priority. We pray that nations would be changed and transformed today because of selflessness. In Jesus name we pray, amen.

| You are made complete. Today, I hope that we would never feel lost. Feeling lost is the worst, because even with people around us, we still feel alone in this world. When we declare to ourselves that we have been made 100% complete, even when the thoughts of feeling alone, feeling ashamed, feeling small, etc. they have absolutely no control. Control is a very important word. Who controls your life? Everyday, we may make mistakes, but if God is in control, there is peace in our hearts that no matter what, we have been made complete. If God is not in control, in my opinion, we will always feel lost. The definition of being complete changes. Money, relationships, materialism, intellectualism, all become part of that definition of being complete. God, because secondary. Circumstances take over God, and if we don’t deal with this now, very quickly we can see our relationship with God slip away. Luke 15:32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. © 2009 Lee Shaun Tzen. www.everynation.org.sg archive: www.shauntzen.blogspot.com |

| You are made complete. We have been made complete in Christ. I’m just thankful that in God’s eyes, He see’s me as perfect. It is an amazing sense of security, that I don’t need peoples’ approval. Today’s Words of Encouragement are about, listening to the right voice. Everywhere we turn, a close friend, a relative, or a stranger may offer advice, but who’s voice are we listening to, God’s or man’s? Once again, if we have been made complete in Christ, why in the world are we not listening to God’s voice above everything!! Life is about making choices. God sometimes brings us to cross roads, and we have to make a decision to turn left or right. If we know full well that we have been made complete in Christ, and we have been building our relationship with God, we would know exactly which road to take. However, if we are always wavering the choice is tough, and we remain lost. God is speaking to us right now. Some choices that we make will be tough. It may feel like a sacrifice, but God is greater than any circumstance. I hope that we will feel the security in God’s hands right now, for we are made complete in Him. Isaiah 32:19-20 Though hail flattens the forest and the city is levelled completely, how blessed you will be, sowing your seed by every stream, and letting your cattle and donkeys range free. © 2009 Lee Shaun Tzen. www.everynation.org.sg archive: www.shauntzen.blogspot.com |
