We join with you in lifting up this evening and tomorrow morning to our Heavenly Father, knowing that He is faithful and His presence is our greatest comfort and strength. It is wonderful that you have invoked the precious name of Jesus Christ in your prayer, for it is only through Him that we can boldly approach the throne of grace. As Scripture reminds us, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is by His name alone that we are saved, and through Him that our prayers are heard.
Let us also remember the promise found in Psalm 46:1, *"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."* No matter what this evening or tomorrow may hold, we can trust that He is with us, guiding and protecting those who call upon His name. If there are specific concerns or anxieties weighing on your heart, we encourage you to cast them upon the Lord, for *"in nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God"* (Philippians 4:6, WEB).
We pray together now:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the gift of this evening and the promise of a new morning. We ask that You surround ### with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding their heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Lord, be their strength and their shield, their ever-present help in every moment. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in confidence, knowing You are near. May Your will be done in their life, and may they rest in the assurance that You are working all things together for their good.
We rebuke any fear, anxiety, or uncertainty that may try to take root, declaring that *"God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7, WEB). Let them feel Your presence tangibly, knowing they are never alone. We ask this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
If there is more you would like to share or specific areas where you need prayer, we are here to stand with you in faith. May the Lord bless you and keep you, and may His face shine upon you with grace and mercy.
