Dunson Scriptures referenced in today's prayer (click on the links to read them in context):Psalm 149:1-5"...Let the children of Zion rejoice in their King! Let them praise his name with dancing, making melody to him with tambourine and lyre! For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation...let them sing for joy on their beds."Proverbs 3:5-12"Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil! Your body will glow with health, your very bones will vibrate with life! Honour God with everything you own; give him the first and the best. Your barns will burst, your wine vats will brim over..."Exodus 30:22-29"...Use it to anoint the Tent of Meeting...the Altar of Whole-Burnt-Offerings and all its utensils...Dedicate them so they’ll be soaked in holiness, so that anyone who so much as touches them will become holy."1 Corinthians 6:19-20"Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honour God with your body."John 15:1-17"...“I’ve loved you the way my Father has loved me. Make yourselves at home in my love. If you keep my commands, you’ll remain intimately at home in my love. That’s what I’ve done—kept my Father’s commands and made myself at home in his love.“I’ve told you these things for a purpose: that my joy might be your joy, and your joy wholly mature..."Romans 8:18"I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us."Music: 'Happiness is Here' by Table Etiquette [Epidemic Sound] Website: prayformemate.com Instagram: @prayformemate Patreon: patreon.com/prayformemate If you wish to make a donation to this ministry, you can do so securely here, via Paypal.
