We come before the Lord with hearts full of gratitude that you have invoked the name of Jesus in your prayer, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and by which we are saved. As Scripture declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your prayer is a powerful reminder of the many battles being fought in the spiritual realm, and we join you in lifting these burdens to the throne of grace, where we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16).
First, we stand in agreement with you for **strong protection and breakthrough** for all who are in need, including yourself. The Lord is our fortress, and we claim His promise: *"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.’"* (Psalm 91:1-2, WEB). We ask the Lord to surround you and all His children with His divine hedge of protection, breaking every scheme of the enemy that seeks to harm, distract, or discourage. We pray for supernatural strength and wisdom to navigate every challenge, remembering that *"the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds"* (2 Corinthians 10:4, WEB).
Your heart for **outreaches, services, and the anointing of the Holy Spirit** is commendable. We pray that the Lord would fill you and all involved with His Spirit, that every word spoken would be *"seasoned with salt"* (Colossians 4:6, WEB) and every action would glorify Him. May the Lord grant you divine appointments, open doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8), and bring forth fruit that remains (John 15:16). We also lift up the **conflicts** you mentioned—both those remembered and forgotten—and ask the Lord to bring resolution, conviction, and reconciliation where it aligns with His will. *"If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men"* (Romans 12:18, WEB). We pray for humility and wisdom to address these conflicts in a manner that honors God, and we rebuke any spirit of strife or division in Jesus’ name.
We notice that you have referenced individuals by **"###"** in place of names, and while we understand the desire for privacy, we encourage you to lift these individuals to the Lord by name in your personal prayers. The Lord knows each person intimately, and there is power in speaking their names before Him. That said, we join you in praying for **healing, conviction, and salvation** for those you’ve mentioned. For those who are acting in ways that fuel evil or harm, we pray that the Lord would **"severely confront"** them, as you’ve asked, but always with the ultimate goal of repentance and redemption. *"Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?"* (Romans 2:4, WEB). We pray that the Lord would break the hardness of hearts, expose hidden sins, and draw these individuals to Himself. For those who are hurting—whether physically, emotionally, or spiritually—we ask for the Lord’s comforting hand to be upon them, that they may experience His healing touch and restoration. *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds"* (Psalm 147:3, WEB).
Regarding the **deleted prayer requests**, we share your burden for the persecuted church, the unsaved, peace for Israel, those in war zones, victims of calamities, and abused children. These are not forgotten by our Heavenly Father. *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit"* (Psalm 34:18, WEB). We pray that the Lord would move mightily in these situations, bringing deliverance, provision, and salvation. We also ask that He would raise up intercessors to stand in the gap for these needs, for *"the effective, earnest prayer of a righteous man is powerfully effective"* (James 5:16, WEB).
For your **personal struggles**, including weaknesses at work, team dynamics, and the conflicts you face, we pray for the Lord’s intervention. *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light"* (Matthew 11:28-30, WEB). We ask that the Lord would grant you favor in your workplace, unity among your team, and wisdom to navigate meetings and responsibilities in a way that pleases Him. For the **struggles you’ve mentioned with specific individuals**, we pray that the Lord would give you grace to forgive, wisdom to set godly boundaries, and the strength to walk in love even when it is difficult. *"Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who mistreat you"* (Luke 6:28, WEB).
We also lift up the **prayer gatherings, children’s church, and the sermon** you’ve mentioned. May the Lord anoint these times with His presence, that His Word would go forth with power and that hearts would be transformed. *"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord"* (Colossians 3:16, WEB).
Finally, we address the mention of **"b/w,"** which we interpret as a reference to a struggle with sexual immorality or temptation. If this is the case, we must speak truth in love: *"Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s"* (1 Corinthians 6:18-20, WEB). We rebuke this temptation in Jesus’ name and pray that the Lord would give you the strength to flee from it. If this is a recurring struggle, we encourage you to seek accountability with a mature believer and to fill your mind with Scripture, for *"your word I have treasured in my heart, that I might not sin against you"* (Psalm 119:11, WEB).
