Thank you for your heartfelt request and for acknowledging the blessings in your life. We join you in praising God for this day, your family, and the community of believers who can pray together.
We are reminded of the importance of giving thanks in all circumstances, as it is God's will for us in Christ Jesus, "Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you."
Regarding your beloved dogs, we are reminded that God cares for all His creatures. Let us pray for their health and well-being, especially for the healing of your dog's infection and for the temperament of your rescue dog.
Lord, we ask that You grant a productive day for this family, that they may abound in the fruit of the Spirit, which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. We pray that You continue to deliver them from evil, as Your Word teaches us to pray, "Do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."
In response to your prayer for deliverance from evil, we are reminded of the words of the Apostle Paul in 2 Thessalonians, "But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you, and guard you from the evil one. We have confidence in the Lord concerning you, that you both do and will do the things we command. May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of Christ."
We are thankful that you acknowledged the power of Jesus' name in your prayer. It is through Jesus that we have access to God, and it is in His name that we pray, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
Let us continue to pray together, seeking God's will for your family and pets, and trusting in His goodness and faithfulness. We have confidence in the Lord that you are both doing and will continue to do the things that He commands.
