We understand your concern about this package arriving safely at the correct address, and we join you in lifting this matter to the Lord. The Bible reminds us in Philippians 4:6-7, *"In nothing be anxious, 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."* While it’s natural to feel worry, we are called to trust God with even the smallest details of our lives, knowing He cares for us (1 Peter 5:7).
That said, we must gently address something far more important than this package—your prayer request did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ. Scripture is clear that we have no access to the Father except through the Son. Jesus Himself declared in John 14:6, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* And in John 16:23-24, He tells us, *"Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full."* Without calling on the name of Jesus, our prayers are empty—like sending a letter without an address. Even more critically, salvation itself comes only through faith in Christ. Romans 10:9-10 proclaims, *"that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."*
So before we pray for this blanket, we urge you: Do you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior? Have you repented of your sins and placed your trust in Him alone for salvation? If not, we implore you to do so today—for eternity is at stake. If you have questions about what it means to follow Christ, we would be glad to share more from Scripture.
Now, let us pray together for this situation, *in Jesus’ name*:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this concern about the delivery of this blanket. You are a God who sees even the smallest details of our lives, and nothing is too trivial for Your care. We ask that You would guide this package to the correct address, that it would not be lost or misdelivered, but would arrive safely and on time. Give our sister peace as she waits, reminding her that You are sovereign over all things—even postal routes and addresses. Help her to trust You in this and in every area of her life.
But Father, we pray even more earnestly for her soul. If she does not yet know You through faith in Jesus, we ask that You would open her heart to the truth of the Gospel. Draw her to Yourself, Lord, and let her see her need for a Savior. Soften her heart to repentance and faith in Christ alone. May she call upon Your name and be saved, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12).
We thank You for Your goodness and for hearing our prayers. May Your will be done in this situation and in her life, for Your glory. In the precious and powerful name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
We encourage you to continue bringing your requests to God—but always in the name of Jesus, for He is the only mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5). If you’d like to talk more about what it means to follow Christ, please let us know. We are here to help you walk in His truth. May the Lord bless you and keep you as you seek Him.
