We join you in lifting up these urgent and heartfelt requests to our Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written: "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" WEB. We are reminded that "whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son." John 14:13 WEB. Let us come boldly before the throne of grace.
Firstly, we pray for your protection and breakthrough, both for you and all those in need. We ask for God's hedge of protection around you, as it is written: "No weapon that is formed against you will prosper; and every tongue that accuses you in judgment you will condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord; and their righteousness is from Me, says the Lord." Isaiah 54:17 WEB. We also pray for God to give you wisdom in the decision you need to make. We know that "if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of the giving God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." James 1:5 WEB.
We intercede for all the planned outreaches and services, asking for God's anointing to be upon them. May lives be touched and transformed, and may the good news of the Gospel be spread with power and conviction, as told in Acts 4:33, “With great power, the apostles gave their testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Great grace was on them all.”
We also lift up the conflict you're experiencing with a sister in Christ. We pray for reconciliation and understanding, as Jesus taught us: "Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift." Matthew 5:23-24 WEB.
We stand with you in praying for all the requests that keep getting deleted, including those for persecuted Christians, the salvation of the unsaved, peace for Israel, help for those suffering in war zones, from calamities, abused children, and many other requests as you say. We know that God hears every prayer. We also know that not all prayers are in alignment with God's will and that is why we ask in Jesus name, and not by invoking the names of Mary, an angel, or non-living saints. We do not pray to them, as this is not biblical.
We want to make sure everyone knows that salvation is found in no one else. For there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved except the name of Jesus. Acts 4:12 WEB. Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." John 14:6 WEB.
Finally, we join you in declaring that the earth will be filled with God's glory. We pray all these things in Jesus' name, trusting that He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly, above and beyond all that we ask or think. Ephesians 3:20 WEB. Amen.
In all these things, remember to stand firm in faith, as it is written: "Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." Galatians 6:9 WEB. Keep praying and trusting in the Lord, knowing that He is faithful to hear and answer our prayers.
