Beloved
Father, thank You for giving mercy and grace in times of need, Heb 4:16, past and now in present. I confess and agree with Your admonition through Hosea, "Take words with you, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, 'Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips as bulls" Hos 14:2. I've missed Your warnings, haven't taken the way of escape, dealt with things unrighteously, sinned, lacked love, gotten "in the flesh," said things in anger, and that doesn't achieve the righteousness of God, James 1:19-20. I've been a man of unclean lips, Isa 6:5, for our transgressions are multiplied before you, and our sins testify against us; for our transgressions are with us, and as for our iniquities, we know them, transgressing and denying Yahweh, and turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood, Isa 59:12-13, I have "Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know, therefore I despise my sins, and I repent from them in dust and ashes," Job 42:3, Job 42:6, Yet though You've disciplined me severely, You haven't given me over to death, Ps 118:18. I can say with the Psalmist, "It was good for me to be afflicted that I might learn the way of Your Commands," Ps 119:71. Let me make the most of Your discipline, knowing it's end result has many ends in mind, sanctification being a chief one, Even Jesus being the author, į¼ĻĻηγὸν, ultimate architect, pioneer and engineer of our salvation, perfected through suffering, Heb 2:10, on earth and in flesh, the proving ground of obedience, becoming the ultimate fountain of salvation, Heb 5:8-9. Surely, there is One found Worthy, Rev 5:9.Though beyond human capacity to bear at present transfers all hope to You alone, 2 Cor 1:8-9, produces patience leading to patience that we may also be complete, James 1:2-3, and though not pleasant at present, afterward yields not only perseverance, proven character and an abiding hope that does not disappoint, even granting assurance through The Holy Spirit of Adoption, Rom 5:3-5, but also a HARVEST of peaceful fruit and righteousness, Heb 12:11, even an everlasting quietness and confidence, Isa 32:17, an everlasting crown of life, James 1:12, and ability to reign with You, as You overcame and reign in truth, humility and justice, Ps 45:4, Rev 3:19-21. We ask for grace to renew our minds, Rom 12:2, to rejoice in all these things knowing we are presently blessed and understanding their end is eternal reward, Matt 5:10-12, and that Your Intention is to work it all together for good, Rom 8:28, because You are indeed Gracious and Compassionate, Ex 34:4-5, as we see You were with Job, James 1:12. Let us pray for others and others pray for us knowing You have brought us through trials before, You will do so again, and that prayers are powerful and effective, 2 Cor 1:10-11, especially when we confess our struggles and sins, James 5:15-16.
Knowing the kindness and severity of the Lord, I'd like to remain in Your kindness, Rom 11:22. Requesting what Jesus said to be my prayer, "I donāt speak on My own authority. The Father who sent Me commands me what to say and how to say it," John 12:49. May I speak truth the right way (in love, humility and kindness) at the right time (when one isn't tired and in the right place to receive it), Prov 25:11. Like apples of gold in settings of silver, so is the right word at the right time, Prov 25:11
Jesus You said "when you fast" -- please help me hunger and thirst for righteousness in these situations, Mt 5:6, and help others share this burden with me for ###, ###, our child, the entire situation and all thatās transpired, the good, bad and ugly, 2 Cor 1:10-11, to be turned for glory, praise and honor, Isa 58:6-14. Let us plead the cause of the widower, and defend the cause that by her foolish abandonment was made to be partially orphaned, Jer 5:28, which if we can't visit the widower or orphan, James 1:27, we can at least pray for them.
Grant powerful grace and strength within me, grant grace to humble my soul with fasting, to CONTROL THE TONGUE with SAYING TRUTH, in LOVE, sanctifying residual pockets of darkness with light, helping the word become flesh, as John says, John 1:14, to love You AND my NEIGHBOR (how much more my wife and children, whether reconciled or not) with ALL my heart, soul, mind, will, emotions, physical strength and finances -- my thoughts, words, deeds, actions and especially my reactions -- let the word be engrafted as exhorted by James 1:22-23.
I've been sinned against by her and her family -- I believe the remedy of being sinned against is praying for their salvation -- again nothing's been confessed or repented of -- as a student of spiritual conditions, that's neither the wisdom of the just, Lk 1:17, nor the wisdom from above, James 3:17. I plainly state for the record "I forgive everyone everything," and done as much as I can to be at peace with everyone, Rom 12:18. Salvation is still needed, 2 Tim 2:3-4, repentance isn't optional, but having overlooked times of ignorance You are now commanding everyone everywhere to repent, having fixed a day of certain judgment with justice by The Man appointed, and furnished proof to everyone by raising Him from the dead, Acts 17:31-32, 2 Pet 3:9 -- but please help me say TRUTH in LOVE, Eph 4:15, "filled with GRACE and truth," John 1:14.
Place and use the love of Jesus in me to privately, publicly, and now remotely demonstrate true love of the gospel, Gal 3:1. Let me model it and teach it to myself, ###, every family member, those near and dear and those far off and beyond to extended family, friends especially any who might consider me an enemy -- let me be a living ambassador Your love to be known and read by all people groups, everywhere, 2 Cor 3:2, āWhat to say and how to say it,ā John 12:49.
Do not take us out of the world, but keep us from the evil one, John 17:15. Sanctify us by the truth; Your Word is truth, John 17:17. Because I LOVE ###, let me wash her with the water of the word to be a bride ready for her husband, Eph 5:25-27 -- and if she could help out by reading the word and preparing herself also, Rev 19:7-8, it would be both helpful and fitting (wholly within bounds of Scripture). I'd also like to have a little respect since it's a picture of Christ and the Church Eph 5:32:33, but either way keep her, them and us from evil people, 2 Thes 3:2, temptation, Matt 6:13, sin Zeph 3:13 and the evil one, Matt 6:13. Thank you for the angels in advance -- they're real and really do get sent ahead, Heb 13:2, and thank You in advance for salvation since "You like to make their faces change," Ps 34:5, May Yahweh bless us, and keep us. make His face to shine on us, be gracious to us, lift up His face toward us, and give us peace, Numbers 6:22-27, in Jesus' Name, Phil 4:6-7.

Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. Thank You for loving me, Jesus. God, I ask You in Jesusā name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
