Proclamation Prayer

I realize that there are people in the prayer-school who are not prophetic, and that is fine. Many prophetic people are drawn to GodSpeak, so I am including this proclamation prayer. It is intended for those who already move in the prophetic, and also for those who desire to do so.

If you are not called to the prophetic personally, you can still use this as a model pray to pray for someone else who is. You will have to make a few minor adjustments to it, such as changing it from first person to third person and using the person's name in place of some of the "I" or "me."

For example, if your pastor is prophetic it, you can change it to a prayer for him but making it 3rd person and using the pastor's name. Of course, you can't set your pastor apart for as God's spokesperson (the first sentence of the prayer). But you can acknowledge that God has set him/her aside in that capacity. If you are praying this for someone else, you might want to change the first paragraph to something like,

Lord, you have set ______ aside as Your spokesperson. I ask you to release an increase of the prophetic anointing in his life, and to put your words in his mouth and speak through him. Lord, ______ has chosen to set himself a aside for Your purposes as a holy vessel for You. Help him to dedicate himself to you as Your messenger, and empower him to strive to be one who You feel comfortable speaking through.

I assume you get the idea on how to adapt this prayer, should you choose to pray it for someone else. By the way, this is a great prayer for people who don't move in the prophetic yet, but who really want the Lord to give them that gift.

Proclamation For Those Who Move In The Prophetic

Lord, I set myself aside for You as Your spokesperson. I ask You to release an increase of the prophetic anointing in my life, and to put Your words in my mouth and speak through me. I choose to be set aside for Your purposes as a holy vessel for You. I dedicate myself to You as Your messenger and I strive to be one who You feel comfortable speaking through.

Lord, just as You did for Elijah, please take a coal from Your alter and touch my lips to purify My mouth. Let it be set apart for Your purposes, pure and holy. Lord. With Your help, I set a guard over my everyday speech so that I do not say anything that dishonors or displease You in any way. I renounce all vulgarities, gossip, untruths, unkind words, complaining, murmuring, or any other thing that defiles me as Your spokesperson. Help me to avoid these things Lord, and let nothing come out of my mouth that taints the messages You desire to speak through me.

Lord, in addition, I ask You to put a guard over me, to keep from speaking my own words or my own messages as though they were Yours. I choose not to say say things that You are not saying. I choose to represent You cleanly and accurately, and I do not want to misrepresent You in any way, shape or form. Lord, I set myself aside to seek increased clarity of hearing, and the ability to clearly and accurately discern exactly what You want said. With Your help, I will deliver Your message exactly the way You want it delivered. Help me to become an accurate representative for You--one who speaks only and precisely what You are saying.

Lord, there are times when I am concerned that I am might make a mistake and misquote You. I ask that You keep me from doing that. Also, keep me from any deception and from any spirit of false prophecy. Let all that comes out of my mouth be pure and holy, and let it be precisely what You want to say.

Lord, I want to have a pure heart for You as I speak forth Your word. I present my heart to You that You might shape it and fill it with the compassion and love that You carry in Your heart. I choose to be motivated by love in all that I say and do, and especially when I speak for You at Your command. So please help me to always have the right motives and attitudes when I speak Your words. I want You to be pleased not only with what I say when I prophesy, but also with the attitude of My heart before You as I deliver Your word.

Dear Lord, please continue to increase the clarity and sharpness of my hearing. I am willing to give those specific details that show the person that this word really is from You, and I will speak what You show me to speak. Lord, give me the confidence and boldness to speak what I hear You say. I won't say anything that You are not saying, and I choose not to omit anything that You want said.

In addition, Lord, I am asking You to place Your anointing on the words as I speak them forth. Let Your life and power resonate in them. Put Your authority on Your words--the authority to set captives free and to break off all of the bondages and yokes of the enemy. Let healing power and restoration be released as Your words go forth from my mouth. Send Your Holy Spirit to bare witness to their spirit that this is You speaking. Lord, let the words that I speak be Your words, and let them be spoken Your way, and in Your power and anointing. Enable me to flow with You in this.

Lord, I want to be Your spokesperson and I make myself available to You for that purpose. I ask You to use Me in that capacity. I trust You, and I will speak forth the words that You give me to speak. I love You so much, Lord, and I delight to serve You. Than You for the opportunity to so do.

I thank You because I know You will hear and answer this prayer. I offer You my worship and my love and my adoration, because You are worthy of all praise and glory. I freely and willingly give myself to You as Your servant and Your spokesperson; and I pledge to obey You no matter what You ask Me to do. I serve You because I love You.

I pray in Jesus' name. Amen.
