"Father, I thank You for Jesus ... and I thank You for making a way of escape. I praise You today, for looking beyond my faults, and seeing my needs ... and I thank You that The Blood of Jesus still covers me.
Thank You for removing the wall of separation that my sins had created, and for allowing me access to Your Presence. I pray for fresh Grace today, and for the courage to move on. I've made mistakes, and some things I did, because I wanted to, and I've messed up so many opportunities that You'd made available to me, and for that Lord, I'm sorry, and I repent, and I ask that You help me to maintain my current conviction ... in The Name of Jesus!
I pray for Grace to trust myself again ... and I pray for the strength to try, knowing that my help comes from You Lord! I blew it, but I refuse to hold my head down! I was the one at fault, but I refuse to allow the enemy to make me believe that You're unprepared, and surprised, and unwilling and able, to walk me out of what I did! I release my faith, to recover from a season of failure, and I decree and declare, "... The Just shall LIVE, by faith!"
What used to be on my back, is now, under my feet! And I will not allow anything, or anybody, that's beneath me, to bring me down. I cannot change what I did, and I cannot change what happened to me as a consequence, but I can trust You for Grace, to make something good, out of something bad! I believe God!
And what should've destroyed me, is going to deliver me, from who I once was! What should've taken me out, is going to take me to higher ... and I'll never be plastic again! It's all working together for my good, and this mess I've created, is soon to be over, and God's going to turn this mess, into my message!
I'm NOT done! I'm just getting started, and what's in front of me, is better than what's behind me. What God is walking me into, is greater than what I walked out of ... and today marks the beginning, of a season of refreshing. It's in The Name of Jesus I pray! Amen."
Fans' messages of support praising the prayer as being a perfect reflection of their own situations immediately flooded his timeline. "God I bless you for this prayer. Thanks for lifting me up," one person write. wrote.
Another follower added, "Thank you Bishop Murph! As always right words at the right time!"
The Grammy nominated singer recently released his first book, Praying Through It! The book falls in line with his daily prayers because it's centered around having the grace to intercede as it was passed down from generation to generation. The book of prayers started from Bishop William H. Murphy Sr., to Bishop William H. Murphy Jr., and Murphy decided to pass it on to his generation, and the generations that are to come by getting the book published.
Following his book release is his fifth album, Demonstrate. The gospel record hits stores on June 24, but is now available for pre-order on iTunes.
