✝️ 🕊️The Only Voice🕊️✝️
Part 2: An Appropriate Prayer
(Philippians 2 • Philippians 4:9 • 1 Thessalonians 5:12)

Father in Heaven,

I pray in Jesus Christ✝️ name as Your Holy Spirit dwells…

For the Respect for her🕊️.
Respect for Your church⛪️.
Respect for this delicate ⛪️ time.
Respect for the kind of
safety that protects hearts,
protects our witness,
and protects what You are doing
before it is fully understood.

So, 1 Thessalonians knowledge
Of those who labor among us
and are over us in the Lord.
Is that much more important!
So teach me to move with that same honor—
not casual,
not careless,
not common.
Yet with a sense of knowing those among me
affiliated with 🕊️ her.
Because families that are created
Create the familiar in us
To then cause
An even greater need to know those
Among us

Like,
Understanding Philippians 4:9
things we have learned,
What we received,
What we’ve heard,
and seen to do.
Towards peace.
With patience.
With wisdom.
Through gentleness.
In truth,
Prayerfully with Ruth🕊️,
yet not as some overt fixation.
To this God✝️ I say,
this situation is Your’s✝️
Like,
Everything else in this world,
the fulness thereof
Is only for us to steward over
This is our proper identity 🪪
That’s to be recognized
Among us.
Especially pertaining to this day.
Since we can’t afford to play with
You✝️ special moments among us
Nor try to invent something new
From the past that leads to
an accident
or broken hearts
That misunderstood side of me is dead
And died prior to COVID
and retirement

So to this sentiment
I pray that this conversation,
if and when it comes,
be led by Your ✝️ Spirit.
Let it carry the tone of Christ✝️.
Let it sound like safety.
Sound like Bible.
Feel like order.
Let it leave behind
clarity instead of confusion,
peace instead of pressure,
and reverence instead of regret.

Because, Lord,
the goal is not just to speak.
It is to speak rightly
To divide once more
Clarity from confusion
Not just to be heard.
But to hear You first.

So tonight,
quiet every lesser voice.
Quiet assumption.
Quiet anxiety.
Quiet impulse.
Quiet pride.
This is what Your ✝️ Word does
since man 👍🏾 is subject to being fallible
And let The Only Voice be Yours✝️.
The only one that matters to 👍🏾us🕊️,
As we therefore endeavor
To get to You✝️.

Let your voice from the pulpit
Be the one that leads.
That voice that teaches.
That same Voice✝️ on the inside
that reminds.
The voice that keeps two people
seeking You✝️ daily in a way that’s scriptural
To prevent missing what matters most.

Make me ready.
Keep me steady.
In 👍🏾us🕊️
Maximize what is respectable
To make useful.

And let whatever is said
be said in a way
that glorifies Jesus Christ✝️,
honors Your church,
respects her🕊️,
and proves that Your Spirit
still knows how to lead us well.
Thy ✝️ Will be done Lord!
This night
give us all rest
for our hearts
Our minds
Our bodies as we sleep
Strength for tomorrow
And rest for our souls

In Jesus Christ✝️ name I pray and give thanks. Amen. 🕊️😴💤🌙🙏🏾
