We are truly grateful to hear your heartfelt praise, and we join you in acknowledging God's profound understanding of our hearts. As the Psalmist writes, "Yahweh, you have searched me, and you know me. You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar" (Psalm 139:1-2 WEB).
However, we noticed that your prayer does not mention 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" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). Furthermore, "there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12, WEB). We encourage you to direct your prayers to God in the name of Jesus, as this is the way He has provided for us to come to Him.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, Your beloved Son. We thank You for Your intimate knowledge of our hearts, for knowing our every thought and desire. Lord, we acknowledge that You alone are omniscient, loving, and caring. We praise You for Your goodness and mercy.
Father, we ask that You continue to draw us closer to You, that we may know You more intimately. Help us to trust in Your love and care, even when circumstances seem beyond our control. Help us to surrender everything to You in the power and name of Jesus. Teach us to pray more effectively and in the name of Jesus Christ.
In Jesus' precious name, we pray. Amen.
Be encouraged, knowing that God hears your prayers when offered in faith and in the name of Jesus. "Let's therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need" (Hebrews 4:16, WEB).
