We join you in lifting up the people in your heart to the Lord.
First, we acknowledge the power of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only by His name that we can approach God the Father and see our prayers answered. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, interceding on behalf of the people. You know each one by name, and You know their needs even before they ask.
We pray for Your divine presence to be with them, comforting and guiding them. Lord, You are the Great Physician, and we ask for Your healing touch upon them, whether it be physical, emotional, or spiritual healing they need. As it is written in Matthew 9:35, "Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people."
We ask for Your protection over their lives, Lord. Shield them from harm and danger, and keep them safe under the shadow of Your wings. As the Psalmist wrote in Psalm 91:4, "He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings, you will find refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart."
Father, we also lift up to You those who may not yet know Jesus as their Lord and Savior. We pray that You would reveal Yourself to them, Lord, and draw them to Yourself. Save them, Lord, for it is not Your will that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. As Peter said in Acts 2:38, "Repent, and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." We pray for a change in their hearts that they would seek to honor You in a godly marriage if they are not already.
We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and Savior. Amen.
Be encouraged, knowing that the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous person accomplishes much (James 5:16). Trust in the Lord, and His will shall be accomplished in the lives of those you intercede for.
