DAY EIGHTY-TWO
In the name of Jesus Christ, the Great Shepherd of the sheep, we rise and declare the Word of the Lord:
“For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I Myself will search for My sheep and look after them.”
(Ezekiel 34:11)
In Jesus name, we decree today that the lost will not remain lost. The Shepherd is seeking. The voice of the Lord is thundering into valleys of despair, into prisons of sin, into deserts of dryness. We declare the wandering shall hear the call of their Shepherd and return home.
Father, we cry out for the lost in our families, neighborhoods, cities, and nations.
Just as You promised, stretch out Your hand to search them out. Leave no one hidden in the thickets of sin or buried in the pits of despair. By the power of Your Spirit, draw them from dry places into the green pastures of Your presence. Let them hear the voice of the Shepherd calling their name and awaken them to follow You.
In Jesus name, we proclaim, “Every scattered one is being gathered. North, south, east, and west—release the sons and daughters who belong to the fold of God. Nations will give up their captives. Cities will no longer hold them bound.” By the authority of Christ, we declare the lost are coming in.
In Jesus name, we speak healing over the broken. The Lord says, “I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak.” We declare that wounds of rejection are being healed, chains of addiction are breaking, minds clouded by lies are being renewed, and hearts hardened by sin are softening at the sound of the Shepherd’s voice.
In Jesus name, we decree that prodigals are returning. The Shepherd Himself is pursuing them with relentless love. They will not escape His mercy, nor resist His kindness. They will be carried on His shoulders and restored to His house.
In Jesus name, we speak to the church: “Rise up in the compassion of the Shepherd. No longer passive, no longer silent—be filled with holy urgency for the harvest. Let the fire of intercession burn, let the passion for souls ignite, let the courage to proclaim Christ overflow.
Holy Spirit, stir Your church with Your own compassion. Make us laborers who join You in the harvest. Teach us to love with patience, to pursue with perseverance, and to speak truth with gentleness. Give us courage to step into dark places, bringing light where there is none. Empower us not to grow silent or passive, but to intercede with tears and boldness until the lost are found.
We declare a great ingathering in this generation. We see multitudes streaming into the Kingdom. We see dry bones coming to life. We see the Lamb receiving the reward of His suffering.
And we say with His authority: The Shepherd has spoken. The Shepherd is moving. The Shepherd is here. The lost are found, the scattered are gathered, the broken are healed, and the weak are made strong.
In Jesus’ mighty name—Amen!
