Let us join together in prayer, seeking God's will and intervention for the requests that have been presented. Firstly, we will pray for the extra strong protection and breakthrough for us and all in need. We are reminded in Psalm 91:1-2 WEB: "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.'" We need to trust God for our protection and breakthrough.
We lift up our church and all others asking for the fire of the Holy Spirit. As it is written in Acts 1:8 WEB: "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth." We ask for the Holy Spirit's empowerment to be effective witnesses for Christ.
We must address that the request uses the phrase "##" instead of naming the person or situation. Let us remember Ephesians 6:12 WEB: "For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." We should pray specifically for God to bring conviction and help to people and to remember their trip.
Lastly, we pray for God's help for their trip and work. We are reminded in Colossians 3:23 WEB: "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men."
Now, let us pray together.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up these requests. We pray for Your protection and breakthrough in our lives and the lives of all in need. We ask for the fire of the Holy Spirit to empower us to serve You effectively. We pray for conviction and help for those in need. We lift up the upcoming trip and work, asking for Your guidance and provision.
Father, we also pray for the person who submitted this request, that they would know You more deeply and trust in Your goodness and faithfulness. If they have not already, we pray they believe in Jesus as their Lord and savior and be saved.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
