🙌 Scroll of Deliverance Prayer from 1 Kings
An Offering of Worship, Repentance, Healing, and Sanctification
O Great and Terrible God,
Who sits in throne-glory and walks in fire,
We worship You for the Temple and the Cloud, for the Wisdom and the Fire.
You alone are the God who dwells in thick darkness and blazing light.
You expose kings and hide prophets.
You rebuke idols and raise up remnant flames.
We renounce every idol—Baal, Ashtoreth, Molech, foreign lovers of the soul.
We repent of divided allegiance and altars built in the name of culture or fear.
Let every demon that masquerades in false worship be bound in the name of the LORD of Hosts.
Let every spiritual drought end under the sound of holy intercession.
Let rain fall upon every dry ground.
We receive fresh fire.
We receive the wisdom of Solomon—not for fame, but for faithfulness.
We receive the mantle of Elijah—to rebuild altars and call down God.
We receive healing where we are weary.
We receive sanctification where we’ve been compromised.
We receive commissioning where we’ve withdrawn in despair.
Let the still small voice call us again.
Let the fire consume the sacrifice.
Let the rain wash the land.
Let the Name of the LORD be known again.
In Jesus, the Greater Temple and Eternal King, we pray. Amen.
📜 The Royal Prayer of the Holy Flame
A Deepened Prayer from 1 Kings
🏛️ O Lord Who Sits Upon the Mercy Seat of Wisdom
O Ancient of Days, enthroned in glory beyond the veil,
We come not by our own merit but by covenant mercy.
You gave Solomon a heart that could judge rightly—
Grant unto us, O God, hearts that discern between light and darkness,
Between the profane and the holy, between ambition and anointing.
You are the Giver of understanding, not as the world gives,
But as a fire that burns within the soul—pure, weighty, unshakable.
You build houses not made by hands, but by hearts that tremble at Your word.
Establish us as pillars in Your temple; may we not be shaken by winds of doctrine.
Let Your wisdom flow like rivers from heaven’s court, shaping nations and altars.
🕍 O God Whose Glory Fills Temples, and Drives Out Flesh
You who came in the cloud of glory,
Who filled the house until no man could stand—
Drive out all self-glory, every noisy priesthood,
Until only awe remains.
Where are the priests who fall when You enter?
Where are the voices that cease when You arrive?
O God, forgive our crafted services void of Your presence.
Let the weight of Your glory crush pride beneath the threshold.
Let incense rise from a broken spirit.
Let praise erupt from lips purified by coal.
Fill us, O Holy One—not with form but with fire.
🕯️ O Keeper of Covenant and God of Generations
You remembered David’s vow and fulfilled it through Solomon.
You are the God who keeps promises even when the next generation falters.
You do not forget what our fathers spoke in faith,
Nor do You abandon the seed of the righteous.
God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob—
God of David, Solomon, and Elijah—
You are the same, unchanging in holiness and mercy.
Write Your covenant again upon our hearts,
Let us not be wise in our own eyes but faithful in our worship.
Rebuild ruined places, O God of continuity, and restore fallen houses of worship.
Let Your name be exalted in our homes, our altars, our nations.
🔥 O God Who Answers by Fire and Consumes the Lie
You alone are God.
Not Baal. Not Chemosh. Not the gods of the high places.
You proved it by flame on Carmel.
You proved it again when the people fell on their faces and cried,
"The LORD, He is God!"
O God of confrontation and demonstration,
Send the fire that exposes mixture.
Send the fire that confirms the true altar.
Burn every doctrine of demons,
Consume every divided altar.
Let Elijah’s prayer be heard again through the remnant—
That the world may know You have turned hearts back to You.
⚔️ O Judge of Kings and Discerner of Thrones
You weighed Solomon, and his wives led his heart astray.
You saw Jeroboam's rebellion and cut the kingdom.
You lifted prophets and tore down corrupt rulers.
No crown escapes Your inspection.
Search our thrones, O God.
Expose every reign of compromise,
Every policy of idolatry,
Every platform that hosts rebellion.
May we not be like Ahab, feeding the prophets of Baal while silencing truth.
May we not be like Rehoboam, clinging to pride while losing kingdoms.
Let us rule, speak, live from the fear of the LORD,
For You are the King over kings, and the Scepter is Yours alone.
🏹 O Restorer of the Hidden Remnant
Elijah fled in weariness, yet You fed him with angel's bread.
You spoke not through the fire, wind, or quake—
But through the still small voice that resurrects calling.
Restore Your prophets, LORD.
Feed the weary with bread from heaven.
Speak to those in caves and call them forth with holy purpose.
Break isolation. Bind up fear.
Let a company arise—not loud, but loyal—
Who know Your whisper more than the world’s applause.
🌧️ O Rain-Giver and Covenant Healer
You withheld rain, and You sent it at the voice of Your servant.
You teach us that intercession moves the heavens.
Let our prayers unlock droughts,
Spiritual droughts in nations, in churches, in bloodlines.
Release the abundance of rain—
Let it cleanse our altars, refresh our land,
And restore our inheritance.
🙌 Consecration and Cry of Deliverance
O God of 1 Kings—Builder of Thrones and Tearing of Idols—
We bow before You.
We renounce every idol lifted in our hearts—every Baal of ambition, every Asherah of lust, every Molech of control.
We repent of divided altars, where Your name was mingled with the world's.
Cleanse our temple. Restore Your flame.
We receive healing from weariness, identity loss, compromise.
We receive boldness, the mantle of the prophet, the tears of intercession.
We receive alignment, from throne room to footstool, in our lives.
O God of Fire—ignite us again.
O God of Whisper—speak purpose again.
O God of Covenant—establish us again.
Let the world cry again: “The LORD, He is God!”
In the name of the Greater Solomon, Jesus Christ, King of Glory,
Amen.
