As I love, please let it be with someone who loves me back
I love You Lord so let it be with someone who loves You too
I love hard, Lord, let him love harder
***
I don’t ‘look at men’, Lord let his eyes be fixed on me only
Let the wayward girl who only finds taken men attractive be repulsive to him
Let the friends he has who want to lead him astray either change or be gone!
***
Let his mom love me as her own
Let his father take me as his seed
Let his brothers admire me as a jewel
Let his sisters not feel threatened
Let them believe they have gained a sibling and not a competitor
***
I blind the eyes of every husband snatcher
Lord if they remain obstinate, let evil befall them
No matter how hard they try, they will not succeed
Lord let his love for you ensure that he never cheats on me
Let his love for you be sufficient to ward against infidelity
Lord, I will never cheat neither will I stray
My love will be enough for him
His love will be enough for me
***
We will be fruitful in child bearing
We will be fruitful in child rearing
Our children will be taught of the Lord and great shall be their peace
Our son(s) shall be God loving, God fearing, responsible, stunning
Our daughter(s) shall be the same
They will not bring us shame
They will not bring You shame
***
Father, I come against pot belliedness
I declare that he will remain fit and trim
Father, I come against being anything more that a size 10
I will only balloon to a size 12 in pregnancy
After two months may I promptly lose the extra weight
***
Dear Lord, I come against sickness and disease
You have taken our sickness upon You
Therefore the devil has no right to place infirmity on us
Our children shall be healthy
We shall be healthy
None of the sicknesses of the Egyptians shall come upon us
And we shall neither cast our young nor die young
Instead, we shall live to ripe old ages and fulfil our days
***
Heavenly Father, we shall not lack
We shall lend to the nations
We shall be givers, paying our tithes and giving to others
***
God you know I have other prayers to say but I shall stop here (for now)
Please answer even my unsaid prayers as you know my requests
For in Jesus’ name I pray!

Glad to see you’re blogging again! I laughed out loud when I got to the potbellied part. Ask and you will receive! Still laughing….what a great prayer!

Mehn ooo.. I love this. Lol… take everything to prayers. Totally enjoying your blog… Got redirected from BellaNaija. 🙂
Oct 22, 2011 @ 08:54:16
Thank God for the stay-in occasioned by the LGA elections in Lagos State, I actually do have the time to surf the web (for leisure), and read a blog, something I haven’t done in months.
Linked up your blog from your comment on a bellanaija piece. Splendid submission!
Remember though, prayer is good, but we all seem to be in the habit of sitting back for prayers to ‘come to’ themselves, in some cases, we even work against these prayers.
So, I’ll just add a line to your prayer; “May I not consciously or unconsciously make choices that will negate the attainment of my prayers”.
AMEN
Oct 22, 2011 @ 10:19:21
Temi, you have raised the bar again! You keep making me happy, God bless you. I kept saying AMEN to ur prayers, the potbellied part got me laughing dat my belly aches! You rock girl!!!
