We understand your desire to have all prayers heard and answered by God, and we share your concern for the salvation of the unsaved, the protection of abused children, peace in Jerusalem, and help for those afflicted and suffering. We also recognize the importance of personal requests and the needs of the church. However, we want to remind you that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB:
"There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
And in John 14:6 WEB, Jesus said:
"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
Let us pray together in Jesus' name:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, asking for your mercy and grace upon all those mentioned. We pray for the salvation of the unsaved, that they may come to know Jesus as their personal Savior. We lift up the abused children, asking for your protection and healing. We intercede for the peace of Jerusalem, and we ask for your comfort and help for those who are afflicted and suffering. We also bring before you our personal needs and the needs of our church. We trust in your faithfulness and your power to answer our prayers. Help us to continually pray for each other and those in need, knowing that nothing is deleted from your sight. We ask this all in Jesus' name, Amen.
We encourage you to continue praying persistently, as it is written in Luke 18:1 WEB:
"He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray, and not give up."
Remember that God knows our hearts, and it's by Jesus Christ only that we can approach Him. He will surely answer and make it better in His time. Stand strong and trust in Him with all your heart.
