FRiday Prayer Blessings for Derby and DCM

Friday Prayers of Blessing for Derby and Derby City Mission

Heavenly Father, we take upon ourselves the mantle of authority that Jesus delegates to us and
in His Name we speak to every household in this City of Derby and surrounding area and say to you:-­‐
"We bless you in the Name of the Lord. We bless your marriages that they may be strong and
whole. We bless the relationships between each marriage partner that they may be loving,
forgiving, merciful and strong. We bless every inter-­‐generational relationship within each
household that there may be peace and love and understanding flowing between each one.
In Jesus' name we bless every network of wholesome and supportive friendship.
We bless your health that you may be strong and well. In Jesus' name we resist any sickness or
disease which seeks to invade this City and to every person in the surrounding area we say, be
well, be strong, be healthy. To any who are sick right now we say we bless you in Jesus' name
with a speedy recovery.
We bless your wealth that you may have plenty to replace poverty. We bless you to have
enough to live and enough to give. We bless the work of your hands that whatever you turn
your hand to which is wholesome may be profitable. We bless every wholesome enterprise that
is conducted by you that it may prosper and be successful. We bless the shops and restaurants
in every good that you do.
We bless the Residential Homes for the elderly, that they may be secure, safe and peaceful
places where those who live there may be loved and cared for in a way that maintains their
dignity.
We bless Pre-­‐school, Schools, colleges and universities (name those within the City or those
that you know the name of), that they may be secure, safe places for teachers and pupils alike.
We bless the children's capacity to learn and develop relationships and we bless their simple
trust in Jesus that their trust may grow and become enriched.
We speak to the Churches, (name as many that you know) and we say we bless you in the Name
of the Lord that the Holy Spirit and the Word of God may flow out from you in power. We bless
the hearts of all who live in and work in this town and surrounding area, that the overspill of the
blessings of the presence of the Kingdom of God may fall upon you."

We Bless the Derby Street Pastors may they be courageous, loving and merciful to all they meet. May you give them strength in their task and protect them from Evil.

We Bless the Healing on the Streets Teams may they know the power of the Holy Spirit and may the Gospel be in their hearts and upon their lips as they share it with people in Derby.

We bless the Jubilee project liberate the poor and free the captives of debt, oppression and spiritual darkness.

We bless every food parcel that is given that it may feed hungry hearts and touch weary souls.

We speak blessing over the finances of DCM and say may they know riches that they might give to the poor and needy and liberate people from oppression.

For the homeless may you have a home not just a place to stay, to the addict we proclaim freedom, to the lost may you be found. Lord Jesus send Revival and may God kingdom come and His will be done in Derby.
Amen
