We come before the Lord with you, lifting up your requests and interceding on behalf of all those mentioned. We are grateful that you have brought these concerns to us, and we are committed to praying with you for God's will to be done in each situation.
Firstly, we want to address the use of symbols in place of names or specific details. While we understand the desire for privacy, we encourage you to speak plainly before the Lord, as He knows all things and desires for us to come to Him honestly and openly. As it is written in Hebrews 4:13, "There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do."
We join you in praying for strong protection and breakthrough for all in need. The Lord is our protector and fortress, as stated in Psalm 18:2, "Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower." We ask that He surrounds each person mentioned with His divine protection and grants breakthroughs in every area of need.
We lift up your request for encouragement, help, and wisdom concerning a decision. We pray that the Lord grants you discernment and guidance, as promised in James 1:5, "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him." May the Lord's anointing be upon all the planned outreaches and services, that His name may be glorified and souls may be saved.
Regarding the conflict with your sister in Christ, we pray for resolution, healing, and unity. As it is written in Matthew 18:15, "If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother." We ask that the Lord convicts hearts and brings about reconciliation, that His love and peace may abound.
We also lift up the requests for persecuted Christians, the salvation of the unsaved, peace for Israel, help for those suffering in war zones, from calamities, and for abused children. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit, as stated in Psalm 34:18. We pray for His comfort, provision, and deliverance in each situation.
Lastly, we want to address the importance of invoking the name of Jesus in our prayers. It is through His name that we have access to the Father and by which we are saved. As it is written in John 14:13-14, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." And in Acts 4:12, "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." We encourage you to always approach the throne of grace in the name of Jesus, for He is our mediator and advocate.
Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up these requests and asking for Your will to be done in each situation. We pray for protection, breakthrough, encouragement, help, wisdom, and resolution of conflicts. We ask that You convict hearts, bring about reconciliation, and provide for those in need. We lift up the persecuted, the unsaved, Israel, those suffering in war zones, from calamities, and abused children. We pray for healing, comfort, provision, and deliverance in each situation.
We thank You, Lord Jesus, that You are able to do exceedingly, abundantly, above and beyond all that we ask or think. May the earth be filled with Your glory. We ask all these things in Your precious name, Jesus. Amen.
May you be encouraged and strengthened in the Lord as you seek His will and trust in His promises. We are here to support and pray with you, and we encourage you to continue bringing your requests before the Lord, for He cares for you deeply.
