Gracious and Loving Lord,
I thank you for the incredible work which is being done in Your name. Please bless all of the mamas and their babes that they may be filled with Your Spirit. Grant them hope and surround them with love, I pray.
Please also bless all those in this precious ministry and give them all that they need to continue to support these people as they share Your love and Grace each and every day.
In the name of our Saviour, Jesus Christ, amen.
Bless you my dear Lisa! Amen!
Father God,
Thank You! Thank You for goodness, love, kindness and mercy that is new each morning. Your loving faithfulness endures forever. You bend down to listen and answer our prayers. You are El -Shaddai, God Almighty. The El-Roii. The God who sees us. And Jehovah-jireh, the God who provides. Just as You provided yesterday, we k ow that You will provide today and tomorrow. You grant us deliverance from our sin through the precious blood of Jesus Christ and for this we worship You!! May we surrender our lives completely to Your will and bring glory to You in all that we do until the day of our Lords return. Holy Spirit move across this land like never before. Draw Your people to repentance and salvation. When the world looks at us, may they see Jesus instead. We will sing Your praises forever!!
Amen, Elaine! Thank you for this beautiful prayer <3
Father, we lift up our brothers and sisters in Somalia and all around the world that are being persecuted for Your Names sake. Keep them safe, O God, for they have come to You for refuge. You are our Master and every good thing we have comes from You! The godly people in the land are our true heroes! We take pleasure in them. We are praying to You because we know You will answer, O God. Bend down and listen as we pray. Show them Your unfailing love in wonderful ways. By Your mighty power rescue those who seek refuge from their enemies. Guard them as You would guard Your own eyes. Hide them in the shadow of Your wings. By the power of Your hand O Lord, destroy those who look to this world for their reward. But satisfy the hunger of Your treasured ones. May their children have plenty. Because they are righteous, they will see You. When they awake, they will see You face to face and be satisfied.
Amen dear Elaine. Bless you.
Heavenly Father,
We lift up our dear brothers and sisters in Christ in Sierra Leone who are ministering to Your Body and to the lost in their beloved country. We pray for Pastor Sonnel as he directs this branch of the Lulu Tree in West Africa in his local community, in his home with Mommy Christiana and their children, and in the remote villages he oversees– that He would be guided by Your wisdom, strength, and the power of Your Holy Spirit. We pray You would continue to raise up men and women of faith to come along side him and establish churches in the remote villages. We praise you for his fellow shepherds Pastors Daniel, Ezekiel, Dominique and Pastor Bai who are shepherds after Your own heart. We pray you would bless and strengthen and provide for each one of them and for those whose names we do not know. We pray for the cell group leaders in the remote villages to be filled with the power of Your Holy Spirit to minister to the flocks you have called forth and that you would add to these flocks. We pray that you would raise up and annoint teachers to feed the sheep on Your Word so they may grow in the grace and knowledge of YOU. We pray for provision for the churches to be built and equipped for the building up of the Body of Christ. We pray for the fivefold ministry leaders of Ephesians 4 to be raised up and equipped to serve their communities in Sierra Leone as apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers “for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ.” Ephesians 4:11-13 The harvest fields are white, but the laborers are few– we ask that You, O Lord, would raise up laborers to come alongside the leaders you have appointed so that many would come to know their Savior and receive eternal life and hope.
My husband would like to share the following verse with Pastor Sonnel and his fellow pastors:
“The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.” 2 Timothy 2:2
Bless you for this dear Roxie.
“He will rescue the poor when they cry to him; he will help the oppressed, who have no one to defend them. He feels pity for the weak and the needy, and he will rescue them. He will redeem them from oppression and violence, for their lives are precious to him. Long live the king! May the gold of Sheba be given to him. May the people always pray for him and bless him all day long. May there be abundant grain throughout the land, flourishing even on the hilltops. May the fruit trees flourish like the trees of Lebanon, and may the people thrive like grass in a field. May the king’s name endure forever; may it continue as long as the sun shines. May all nations be blessed through him and bring him praise. Praise the Lord God, the God of Israel, who alone does such wonderful things. Praise his glorious name forever! Let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and amen!”
Psalms 72:12-19 NLT
AMEN dear Elaine! He is faithful.
Amen. Lord You are our great Rescuer Wevcry out holding on to you thy will be done for.f Lulu people and children in Jesus Name amen
Amen dear Marilyn!

Prayer and praises for South Sudan refugees:
Heavenly Father,
We thank you and praise You that YOU have led the Lulu Tree into the Adjumani refugee camp to partner with our brothers and sisters in Christ. We pray that You would continue to bless and equip Pastor Santos with grace, energy and strength as he unifies the Body of Christ in the refugee camp. We ask You to bless him mightily in Jesus name for the apostolic work he is doing in the refugee camp and in returning to South Sudan to strengthen the churches. Please provide for all his needs and make a way where there is no way– please answer his many prayers in Jesus name! We thank you that you have sent Pastor Emmy and other Lulu pastors and leaders to walk alongside Pastor Santos and we pray you would bless them with great wisdom, discernment and anointing as they obey Your calling. We pray you would bless, equip and guide the pastors and leaders in the churches in these camps by the power of Your Holy Spirit. That the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace would prevail for the building up of the Body of Christ. We pray that the enemy would be bound from his schemes of disunity, discouragement, and despair and that Your leaders would stand firm in You and Your Word. We pray that you would grow these churches in the grace and knowledge of You. We ask that You would anoint Your pastors and teachers to feed the flocks by the unfolding of Your Word which gives light. We ask this in Jesus mighty name! We pray that You would bless the women and people who have received microloans– that You would bless the work of their hands and multiply their success in whatever they set out to do. We praise you for the Jajjas who are newly saved and we pray that each seed would go into good soil and bear much fruit for the rest of their lives! We pray that You would provide for these women’s needs, heal their broken hearts and bodies, hear their prayers, and build their faith through Your answers and Your Word. We pray against depression and discouragement over these women and that their lives would be like watered gardens because of Your love and care for them through the Body of Christ and through gifts of miracles.
We pray for peace in South Sudan so that these displaced ones may return home. We thank you that– “The people who survived the sword found grace in the wilderness…” Jeremiah 31:2 We ask that in good time they will be able to return to their own territory. In the mighty name of Jesus, for whom NOTHING is impossible– we ask these requests!
God bless Pastor Santos and the Lulu Team as they minister to Your Body of South Sudan!
Bless you, thank you so much for your prayers!
I pray Father that marriages really would be strengthened, chains would be broken (even from generations of hurt), and new lives would be born in front of us. Please rescue all of the moms and men and families from any darkness and make them victorious in You, and show the world Your great love through their redeemed lives and the way they love one another in You. Thank you, Daddy. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9
I pray that the money needed to repair the tractor will come in due time. Thank you that there is a tractor available to help cultivate rice, and please supply the repairs and bless all those who are doing good for you. In Jesus name, Amen.
Amen my dear sister. I am happy to report that the Lord provided the exact amount we needed to fix the tractor! He is so faithful. Bless you.
How joyful are those who fear the Lord-all who follow His ways! You will enjoy the fruit of your labor. How joyful and prosperous you will be! Your wife will be like a fruitful grapevine, flourishing within your home. Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees as they sit around your table. That is the Lord’s blessing for those who fear Him. Psalm 128:1-4
We praise You Oh Lord, for Your promises! We Believe what You have said and we stand on Your Word!! All these things will be done for us because You are Faithful and True!! We give all praise and glory to You through the Name above all names. The name of Jesus.
AMEN my dear Elaine!!! I will share this with the farmers on our team.
Oh my what a Blessing it is to pray with and for The LuLu Tree! As I listened to two songs of worship, I felt so much Joy and I so look forward to seeing His face and meeting ALL of ya’ll. Each and every one of You, I pray daily a Tower of thorns around to keep the enemy away! In the mighty name of JESUS, amen.
“Who but God goes up to heaven and comes back down? Who holds the wind in his fists? Who wraps up the oceans in his cloak? Who has created the whole wide world? What is his name—and his son’s name? Tell me if you know! Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection. Do not add to his words, or he may rebuke you and expose you as a liar. O God, I beg two favors from you; let me have them before I die. First, help me never to tell a lie. Second, give me neither poverty nor riches! Give me just enough to satisfy my needs. For if I grow rich, I may deny you and say, “Who is the Lord?” And if I am too poor, I may steal and thus insult God’s holy name.”
Proverbs 30:4-9 NLT
There is no one like You God! You are indeed our shield and our protector. You know what we need more than we do. You some know what tomorrow holds. I ask You today to fill every need and do so in a way that all people will know that You are our God, that You are in control of all things and that You love Your children and will provide for them abundantly as we obey Your commands and walk alongside You. Cause the peace that You have given us to shine through and draw others to You. Forgive us God for ever doubting You and Your Word. Increase our faith and give us courage to proclaim You to this broken world. We will shout Your Name in high, praising You at all times! Thank You for loving us like You do. May we learn to love one another in the same way. It is through the precious and powerful Name of Jesus that we come to You

Romans 8:37-39
37 But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Lord God, Almighty, Sovereign and all victorious burn these verses that they penetrate the hearts of all the Lulu people that they see You in and through everything so that they be greatly encouraged by living in Your love which is theirs forever. amen
“As for God, His way is blameless; The word of the Lord is tried; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him”: Psalm 18:30
Praying now – Father thank You that Your Word is truth and Your Word has all power to change our lives and support us no matter where we are or in whatever situation we find ourselves in.
I ask You to be that shield to the Lulu families, their pastors and workers across the Lulu Tree ministries in our beloved Africa. May the beatitudes you spoke – the blessings come true for each of the families, their children, all the workers, pastors and supporting families.
May they be pure in heart for theirs is the kingdom of God
(Bring many to Your Son for salvation. May the Word penetrate their hearts and the Holy Spirit draw them to You. Sanctify them in truth, Your Word is truth. Give them great hope as they trust in Your great love for them.
In Jesus name – all that He is and all He has done.
amen
I pray that you may walk in a manner worthy of the Lord fully pleasing to him and desiring to please him in all things, bearing fruit in every good work and steadily growing and increasing in and by the knowledge of God. I pray that you would be invigorated and strengthened with all power according to the might of his glory to exercise every kind of endurance and patience with joy.
Father, I come to You this morning and ask that You fill Emily with Your Spirit as she ministers to and encourages Your people. These are Your people Lord and I am reminded of the words of Psalm that You direct the steps of the godly. That You delight in every detail of their lives. And that it has never been seen that the godly were abandoned or their children begging for bread. Thank You God for providing every need for Your children. Thank You for the women tithing, providing and loaning the money You have given them. The godly always give generous loans and their children are blessings. Provide every need as You have promised to do yet protect them from the pride of “self sufficiency “ that so many have today. Cause them always to remember that their help comes from You alone. Let there be such a difference in Your people that those around them hunger for what they have and seek You. Holy Spirit draw them and light a fire in them that cannot be put out. Cause a great revival to sweep across these lands and for those of us that “have plenty” May we come to rely on You and You alone. You are a Good, Good Father! I praise You for all that You do! Fill our pastors with Your overflowing Words of love and righteousness that they may feed and guide Your flocks. I ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus.
Dear Elaine — Just reading this now and it fills me with tears. YES — may we all be delivered of the pride of “self-sufficiency.” Bless you my sister, for pouring out your love through prayer.
Thank you Father for all Your benefits especially in the specific prayer requests and answer to prayers. Father, You are great and Holy and never run out of resources. Father, You are merciful and full of grace for those who fear, grieve – Let the light of the glorious Gospel fall on all those who are not Yours. We love You Almighty God and worship You with praise and thanksgiving along with others who are lifting up prayers to You. Amen.
Oh Marilyn, what a blessing your prayers are to us. You are so faithful my sister. Thank you.
Glory be to God for all He has done. He is powerful and moves mountains,
Believing God for continuing fruit of His Spirit. Believing God for increased love and confidence in God for the people and families served. Glory to His Name.
Amen dear Marilyn!
Father, we thank You that You go before, with and behind Your children. Thank You for denying the enemy any right to destroy and that you go before us to straighten the crooked paths and that You sing songs of delight over us. Thank you for the powerful work being done for the kingdom of Heaven through the Lulu ministry and thank Thank You that Emily will have praise on her tongue for all that You have shown her on this trip. We know that You that you are being glorified and we along with all the armies of Heaven praise Your most glorious Name.
Oh sister, yes and amen! You know personally how this prayer was answered! Thank you for interceding for me. For His people. Love you.
Father, Thank you for the shower of blessings for the Lulu tree ministry. Thank you for upholding all the pastors, staff, and Emily and her family in the palm of your hand. Humbly asking that you provide strength and support to continue, and increase their work and mission in your name. Thank you, Lord, for all your gifts and for carrying our burdens. In Your name, I pray. Amen.
Beautiful, dear Karrie. I echo your prayer. Amen my Lord. Bless you sister.
Almighty God, our Father, we lift our Uganda family to You this morning. See their tears, their joys and their persecution. Remove from their land all evil spirits that are fighting to hold them hostage. Set them free. Break their chains of bondage and pour Your Spirit out on Your sons and daughters. Cause them to rise up and declare the Name above all names. Theirs is the victory through the power that is in the Name of Jesus. Let there be no doubt that You, the one true God, are their God. You have promised never to leave or forsake Your people and for that we praise You!! We are standing in all of Your promises to us today and declaring victory!!! We will give all praise and glory to You. Do this for Your names sake so that the world may know.
AMEN Elaine! I’ve shared this with our Uganda team. Thank you so much for your heart. Love, e.

These young women and their sons and daughters are Yours. May the power of the Holy Spirit transform their lives. I speak God’s perfect peace over each of them. Let Your glory rain on them. Let them know how much You love them. They are no accident, but are here for Your purpose. Let them walk in Your perfect will. And may You be glorified in all they do. Bless the leaders, teachers, and volunteers of this ministry. Give them strength. We love you Lord, in Jesus’ name we pray. Amen

We praise and thank You, dear Father, all You have done and continue to do in South Sudan. I know the enemy caused much evil and devastation but You, O God have redeemed and are redeeming the land and families of South Sudan.
I stand in praise, gratitude and thanksgiving for Pastor Santos and Pastor Francis for raising them up, establishing them and working through them for the precious people of South Sudan.
Father, You have so many awesome works planned for these dear people through Pastors, Mamas, Grandmama and the orphans who now are in families.
Believing You, Father that You are our Mighty Holy and Unchanging God Who brought about our salvation through the perfect sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Amen dear Marilyn
“O Lord, why do you stand so far away? Why do you hide when I am in trouble? The wicked arrogantly hunt down the poor. Let them be caught in the evil they plan for others. For they brag about their evil desires; they praise the greedy and curse the Lord. The wicked are too proud to seek God. They seem to think that God is dead. Yet they succeed in everything they do. They do not see your punishment awaiting them. They sneer at all their enemies. They think, “Nothing bad will ever happen to us! We will be free of trouble forever!” Their mouths are full of cursing, lies, and threats. Trouble and evil are on the tips of their tongues. They lurk in ambush in the villages, waiting to murder innocent people. They are always searching for helpless victims. Like lions crouched in hiding, they wait to pounce on the helpless. Like hunters they capture the helpless and drag them away in nets. Their helpless victims are crushed; they fall beneath the strength of the wicked. The wicked think, “God isn’t watching us! He has closed his eyes and won’t even see what we do!” Arise, O Lord! Punish the wicked, O God! Do not ignore the helpless! Why do the wicked get away with despising God? They think, “God will never call us to account.” But you see the trouble and grief they cause. You take note of it and punish them. The helpless put their trust in you. You defend the orphans. Break the arms of these wicked, evil people! Go after them until the last one is destroyed. The Lord is king forever and ever! The godless nations will vanish from the land. Lord, you know the hopes of the helpless. Surely you will hear their cries and comfort them. You will bring justice to the orphans and the oppressed, so mere people can no longer terrify them.”
Psalms 10:1-18 NLT
Hallelujah! Amen!
Lord, we praise You for your sovereignty during this turbulent time all over the world. We are so grateful for the opportunity to partner with the Lulu Tree and our brothers and sisters in Africa and stand together in prayer for one another as this pandemic runs strong. May God protect ALL of our families and friends and use this for His glorious gospel to go forth into the white harvest fields of Africa and for hardened hearts (especially in America) to be humbled during this time and ponder the fear of the Lord. We pray special prayers of supernatural protection on the Lulu Pastors, their families and congregations during this very vulnerable time. We praise You for Your glorious works through these dedicated servants in South Sudan, Uganda, Sierra Leone and Liberia and pray they will find their new partners in Kenya as well. May God bless and protect and provide abundantly His servants here and abroad! WE LOVE YOU, LULU FAMILY!!!
Oh we love you too! We will gladly share this prayer with our Lulu family in Africa. Bless you for your beautiful hearts!
Heavenly Father, I pray for our dear African Lulu community the prayer by St Francis of Assisi said centuries ago…”Lord make me an instrument of Thy peace, where there is hatred let me sow love, where there is injury, pardon, where there is doubt, faith, where there is despair, hope, where there is darkness, light, where there is sadness, joy, O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console, not so much to be understood as to understand, not so much to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned. It is in dying that we have eternal life.” Father please give our dear Lulu brothers and sisters the courage and strength You gave Moses and Joshua to lead with love, fight Your battles and receive victories in and through Your Name. How we praise and worship You, our Lord and Savior!
Amen and amen dear Bonnie! Thank you.
Dear Heavenly Father, I thank you for our Lulu Tree brothers and sisters in Africa – for the mothers and fathers and children, pastors, farmers, and everyone who is a part of this ministry and for those who will be touched by you through them. I thank and praise you for what you have done in their lives and what you will do in their lives. I pray today for unity and harmony. Encourage them. Make them strong, firm, and steadfast in you. Give them wisdom and insight. Give them the words to say at the right time as they seek to tell others about you. Use them to bring comfort and encouragement to those around them who know you and those who don’t know you. Whatever lies heavy on their hearts at this time, I pray that you will give them peace and rest and work in those things to your glory. Help them to trust you and to cast all of their cares on you. I thank you that you can do more than we ask or imagine and we look forward to seeing what you will do in and through them. Help them to know and feel your love for them right now and in the days ahead. We love you Jesus. In your name we pray, Amen.
5 May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, 6 that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 5:5-6
Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Romans 12:16
Wow, amen and amen dear Jane. Have shared this with the team and they are so encouraged. Bless you sister. e.

Dear Lulu Tree Family, I pray that the Lord will continue to lead, guide, restore, provide the stamina and resources you need to do the His work in your area. I can’t imagine the obstacles and hindrances you face, but I know the God we serve is BIGGER, STRONGER and IS ABLE to do exceedingly beyond our wildest imagination. He is faithful and has promised not to leave us nor forsake us…..no matter what comes your way, remain faithful and I will continue to be your armor bearer lifting you in prayer along the way.
Come Lord Jesus Come,
Janice
Tears Janice. Thank you. Bless you, dear Armor Bearer.
Dear Pastor David Zawu, We want you to know how honored and blessed we are to know of your work in Liberia. We know you are facing much opposition to the Lord’s calling right now and we are beseeching the Captain of the Lord of Hosts to win these battles you are facing and to subdue the enemies of the gospel in Liberia. May the Lord God strengthen you and your family and fellow workers with His power, grace and peace as you move forward amidst so much warfare. We pray for favor, protection, faith, provision and MIRACLES by our God who can move mountains.Your faith and faithfulness to the Lord deeply inspires us and we are so grateful to be holding your hand in prayer across the world. With much love and hope in Christ Jesus, John and Roxie Daggett
Amen and amen dear Roxie and John.
