We hear your cry and we join with you right now before the throne of grace, thanking God that you have called upon the name of Lord Jesus, for there is power and mercy in His name alone.
The Word reminds us, God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1 and also, Call on me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you, and you will honor me. Psalm 50:15. You have done exactly what God invites you to do, to call on Him, and we praise Him that you have turned to Jesus in your need. For, Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved. Romans 10:13. It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father, and we are so encouraged that you have called on Him.
We want to encourage you to keep casting every burden on Him, for He cares deeply for you. We are told, casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7. Whatever this help is that you need, whether it is physical, emotional, spiritual, or a circumstance that feels overwhelming, He sees, He knows, and He is able to help. Jesus Himself says, Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28. We also cling to the promise, Let us 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.
We pray together for you now.
Father in heaven, we lift up this dear one to You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. You know the need behind this cry for help even when words are few, for You know our hearts and You hear before we speak. We ask that You would reveal Your presence as very near, that You would be refuge and strength in this trouble. Lord Jesus, we ask You to bring Your peace which surpasses all understanding to guard this heart and mind in You, as it is written, 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. Philippians 4:6-7. Provide what is needed according to Your perfect will, grant wisdom, open doors, bring comfort, and deliver from whatever weighs so heavily. Draw this dear one closer to You through Your Word and through prayer, and surround them with godly counsel and support. We trust You to answer in Your perfect timing and way, and we give You thanks in advance for Your mercy and grace. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
We encourage you to continue to seek Him daily in prayer and in reading His Word, to share your burdens with faithful believers who can support you, and to tell Him specifically what you need, for He delights to hear the details of your heart. If you are able, please share more with us so we can pray more specifically, but know that even now we continue to hold you up before the Lord and trust that He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it.
