33 MFM Powerful Prayer Points from Psalm 8 for Divine Glory, Honour, Dominion and Restoration of Destiny
Prayer Focus
This prayer session is centered on Psalm 8:1–9, focusing on the manifestation of God’s glory, restoration of lost honour, recovery of legitimate dominion, renewal of destiny, and the restoration of everything that has been damaged, diminished, delayed, or displaced from God’s purpose.
Psalm 8 reminds us that humanity was crowned with glory and honour and entrusted with dominion over God’s creation. These prayers therefore call upon God to restore what belongs to His purpose and establish the believer in the authority, dignity, responsibility, and fruitfulness He intends.
Bible Exhortation
Psalm 8 begins and ends with the declaration:
“O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!”
David marvels that the God whose glory fills the heavens chooses to crown humanity with glory and honour.
This means your identity and purpose are not determined by the opinions of people, past failures, setbacks, rejection, or opposition. Your true worth comes from God.
Where destiny has suffered legitimate loss, delay, limitation, or damage, God is able to restore. Where honour has been diminished, He can lift. Where opportunities have been lost, He can create new doors. Where strength has failed, He can renew.
Therefore, pray these prayers with humility, faith, courage, and expectation, asking God to establish His purpose in your life.
