We come before the Lord with hearts burdened yet hopeful, for we know that our God is mighty to save, to heal, and to break through every stronghold in the name of Jesus Christ. It is by His name alone that we have access to the Father, and it is in His name that we pray, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be 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). We rejoice that you have acknowledged the name of Jesus in your request, for it is through Him that we find grace and mercy in our time of need.
First, we lift up your plea for **strong protection and breakthrough** for yourself, for all in need, and for the body of Christ. The Lord is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We pray that He would surround you and all His people with His heavenly host, that no weapon formed against you would prosper (Isaiah 54:17). May the blood of Jesus be a hedge of protection over every believer, especially those facing persecution, war, and calamity. We stand in the gap for our brothers and sisters suffering in war zones, for abused children, and for those crying out under oppression. *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit"* (Psalm 34:18, WEB). Father, let Your justice roll down like waters, and Your righteousness like a mighty stream (Amos 5:24). Bring swift deliverance, comfort, and salvation to the afflicted.
We also lift up your request for **wisdom, anointing, and resolution of conflicts**, both forgotten and present. The Lord grants wisdom generously to all who ask in faith (James 1:5). We pray that He would fill you with His Spirit, that your outreaches and services would be marked by His power and presence. *"Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus, make you complete in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen"* (Hebrews 13:20-21, WEB). Father, soften hearts where there is strife. Bring conviction where there is sin, and reconciliation where there is division. We specifically pray for the conflicts you’ve mentioned—some by name (which we will not repeat but lift before the Lord). May truth prevail, and may Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
We must address something with love but firmness: you have mentioned several individuals by what appears to be initials or placeholders, some of whom you are asking God to **severely confront and convict**. While we understand the pain and frustration that may prompt such prayers, we urge you to examine your heart. Scripture calls us to *"love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you"* (Matthew 5:44, WEB). It is right to pray for conviction of sin, but we must also pray for their **salvation and healing**, as you have done. Let us not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good (Romans 12:21). If there are individuals who have wronged you, release them to the Lord. Forgiveness is not optional for the believer—it is a command (Matthew 6:14-15). We pray that God would work in their hearts, but also that He would free *you* from any bitterness or unresolved anger.
Regarding the **deleted prayer requests**, we trust that the Lord hears every cry of His people, even when we do not see the answers immediately. *"Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice"* (Psalm 55:17, WEB). Nothing is hidden from His sight, and He is faithful to answer according to His will. We also lift up the **persecuted church**, the **salvation of the unsaved**, and **peace for Israel**. May the Lord raise up intercessors and bring about His purposes in these critical areas. *"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. May those who love you prosper"* (Psalm 122:6, WEB).
For the **miracles and healing** you’ve requested, we declare that our God is Jehova-Rapha, the Lord who heals. *"Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven"* (James 5:14-15, WEB). We pray for swift and complete healing for those you’ve mentioned, that the Lord would restore strength and remove every infirmity. We also pray for **healing in relationships**, particularly where there is hurt, betrayal, or strife. May the Lord bind up the brokenhearted and set captives free (Isaiah 61:1).
For your **weakness, work, and team**, we ask that the Lord would be your strength. *"He gives power to the weak. He increases the strength of him who has no might"* (Isaiah 40:29, WEB). May He grant you favor in your meetings, unity in your team, and clarity in your tasks. We pray that your work would be done *as unto the Lord*, not unto men (Colossians 3:23). For the **struggles you’ve mentioned**, including what seems to be a reference to **sexual immorality or temptation** (indicated by "b/w"), 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). If this is an area of struggle, we urge you to repent, seek accountability, and walk in purity. The Lord is faithful to provide a way of escape from temptation (1 Corinthians 10:13). Do not give the enemy a foothold.
For the **prayer gatherings and children’s church**, we ask for a mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit. *"Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them"* (Matthew 18:20, WEB). May Your Word be preached with boldness, and may hearts be turned to You. Anoint the sermon on **love** (assuming "l" stands for love), that it would be a balm to the hurting and a call to holiness for all who hear.
Finally, we pray for **you**, dear brother or sister. May the Lord renew your strength, fill you with His joy, and remind you that He is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28). *"Don’t be anxious for anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB). Release every burden to Him, for His yoke is easy and His burden is light (Matthew 11:30).
**Our Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up these petitions with faith and expectation. You are the God who sees, the God who hears, and the God who acts. We ask for **strong protection and breakthrough** for Your people, especially for those facing persecution, war, and suffering. Lord, be their shield and their exceedingly great reward (Genesis 15:1).
We pray for **wisdom and anointing** over every outreach, service, and gathering. May Your Spirit move powerfully, drawing the lost to salvation and strengthening the saints. Father, **resolve conflicts** with Your truth and grace. Soften hearts, convict of sin, and bring reconciliation where there is division.
For those who have caused pain—whether intentionally or not—we ask that You **work salvation and healing** in their lives. Break the power of evil, Lord, and let Your light expose every dark place. Yet we also pray for *our own hearts*, that we would forgive as You have forgiven us.
We lift up the need for **healing**—physical, emotional, and spiritual. Touch every body, mind, and soul with Your restoring power. For our brother or sister struggling with **temptation or sin**, we plead the blood of Jesus over them. Grant them repentance and a way of escape. Remind them that their body is Your temple, and You have called them to holiness.
Lord, **bless the work of their hands** and grant favor in their workplace. May their labor be pleasing to You. We pray for **schools, children’s ministry, and sermons**—may Your Word go forth with power and clarity.
Above all, Father, we ask that Your **will be done**, and that Your name would be glorified in every answer to these prayers. Fill the earth with Your glory, Lord. Let the nations see Your salvation.
We thank You, Jesus, that You are able to do *exceedingly, abundantly, above all that we ask or think* (Ephesians 3:20). May Your kingdom come, and Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. In the precious and mighty name of **Jesus Christ**, our Lord and Savior, we pray. **Amen.**
