And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-8
Jan 21: Lord, May You use this time to train Kendall to live a life of holiness and godliness. May she continue to surrender all control of her life and this day into Your hands and rest in You- If you put these things before the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, being trained in the words of the faith and of the good doctrine that you have followed. Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths. Rather train yourself for godliness; for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come. 1 Timothy 4:6-8
Jan 22: Lord, we praise You for opening up the door and providing this opportunity for Kendall and other M’s to serve You and see You in a new way.

By guarding it according to Your Word. With my whole heart I seek You; let me not wander from Your Commandments. Psalm 119:9-10
Jan 23: Lord, we bring Kendall and Christie (her roommate) to You today asking that you fill them with Your Spirit. May they learn to hear You clearly and discern the steps that You have ordered for their day for your glory. Give them strength to love with Your steadfast love, to pray fervently, to live in radical obedience to You, and trust You completely. Guard their hearts and mind. – Oh how I love Your law!

Jan 24: Lord, we praise You for the life of Kendall. Please allow her to feel Your presence in a tangible way today as she celebrates 34 years of life that by Your grace have been given to her. Be with her family as they are unable to communicate today to share in this special day with her. May she see once again what true dependence on You looks like today. - For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

2 Corinthians 5:20
Jan 26: Lord, we ask in the Name of Jesus that you go before Kendall as she maybe enters into a new area of the jungle and for Darlys as she enters into Palenque. Prepare the way for them, clearing any obstacle from their paths. Place Your angels around them. May they remember to put on Your full armor as they head out to battle in Your Name. - Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel.
Ephesians 6:10-19
Jan 27: Lord, protect Kendall and the other M’s minds and bodies from any attacks from the enemy today as they seek to share Your Truth and Love with the people and each other.

Jan 28: Lord, draw the Palenqueros to You today. May they see Your Light in Darlys and come to receive Your Truth.

May they come away refreshed, renewed, and eager to be used by You! - All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Matthew 11: 27-29
Jan 31: Lord, we ask that you continue to teach Kendall and Darlys how to love You and your people. May they consistently look to You for the love for the Palenqueros. Please continue to unite their hearts and fix their eyes on You as they obediently serve You in Palenque. - Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude.

Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Feb 1: Lord, remind Kendall, her parents, and her friends today that You sit on the throne. You are not worried, stressed or depressed but You confidently sit... fully trusting in Your sovereign plan with no doubting. Also remind them that You sit high, nothing is above Your position, nor past Your sight. You, The Great Monarch reign and fully know all things! God help us to rest so well, knowing You are still on the Throne of Heaven and nothing happens out side of You that will not work together for our good and Your glory. - In the year that King Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple.

obedience to You today. - Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:23
Feb 3: Lord, May every breath be for You; may every minute be spent for You. Help us
to live while we live and while we are busy in the world as we must be,
for we are called to it, may we sanctify the world for Your service. May
we be lumps of salt in the midst of society. May our spirit and temper
as well as our conversation be heavenly; may there be an influence about
us that shall make the world the better before we leave it. Lord, this is my prayer for Kendall and myself today.
Feb 4: Lord, save men, save this village, the surrounding cities, this country. Lord, arouse them; arouse them by any means that they may turn to You. Save
sinners all the world over, and let Your precious Word be fulfilled. - Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen.
Revelation 1:7
Feb 5: Lord, refresh Kendall, the other M’s and the leadership today in You as they are exhausted physically, spiritually, and emotionally. Be their strength today. Renew their spirits.

Isaiah40: 30-31
Feb 6: Lord, help Kendall and myself to - Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving; praying at the same time for us as well, that God will open up to us a door for the word, so that we may speak forth the mystery of Christ, for which I have also been imprisoned; that I may make it clear in the way I ought to speak. Colossians 4:2-4
Feb 7: Lord, help Kendall and myself understand that You have given us prayer as a wartime walkie-talkie so that we can call headquarters for everything we need as the kingdom of Christ advances in the world. Prayer gives us the significance of front-line forces, and gives God the glory of a limitless Provider. The one who gives the power gets the glory. Thus prayer safeguards the supremacy of God in missions while linking us with endless grace for every need. – Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Matthew 6:9
Feb 8: Lord, I ask that You heal Kendall’s knee. Free her from the pain that she has been living with now for months. Do this not for her comfort but for the glory of Your Name. – Heal me, O Jehovah, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise. Jeremiah 17:14
Feb 9: Lord, protect Kendall and the other M’s today wherever they are and in whatever they are doing. May they be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to be angry today with each other, situations, and the people. Continue to change the hearts of the people where they are living to accept You. – Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also it is with you; and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and evil men; for all have not faith.
But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and guard you from the evil one.

Feb 10: Lord, we ask that today you be with the people of Palenque. We pray that they will resist Satan’s plans to obstruct the spread of the gospel in this village.

James 4:7
Feb 11: Lord, we pray that the ministry You have given Kendall and her attitude would be worthy of acceptance. That You would receive both as a sweet smelling offering of worship to You today. That Your face would shine upon her today. I ask you to help her partners and myself to be more actively involved in what You are doing and obediently support her in the way You have designed. - For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray and make request for you, that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, to walk worthily of the Lord unto all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, unto all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light; who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love; in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins: who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; for in him were all things created, in the heavens and upon the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and unto him; and he is before all things, and in him all things consist. Colossians 1: 9-17

We praise You for your grace and love that we have seen over the past 5 weeks as we have prayed and sought Your face.

May she finish strong today for the glory of Your Name. - For I am already being offered, and the time of my departure is come. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give to me at that day; and not to me only, but also to all them that have loved his appearing. 2 Timothy 4:6-8
Feb 13: Lord, we ask that You will watch over Kendall and other’s as they travel today. Open up their eyes for ways to share Your Gospel message with those around them in the airplane and airport. May they each have an opportunity to share with someone the change that You have done in their lives through this time in Suriname. May they take the time to give You thanks for this amazing opportunity. And may they commit to pray for what You are going to do over the next week, month, and year in Suriname. – And when his time of service had ended, he went to his home.
Luke 1:23
Feb 14: Lord, we ask that You, through Your Holy Spirit, help Kendall process what she saw, heard, and experienced.

Bless her with time in worship of You, with internet to speak to her family, and clean water to bath in. Happy Valentines Day, My Beloved! - Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 1 John 4:10
