We rejoice with you that you have placed your hope in Jesus Christ alone, for that is the only true hope, and we thank God with all our hearts for the improvement you have seen, even while you remain in pain and crisis. There is no other name by which we can be saved or delivered, for Acts 4:12 tells us there is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved, and Jesus Himself said in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. Your declaration that you have no other hope but Jesus Christ is exactly where the Lord wants you, dependent wholly upon Him.
We understand your cry for mercy, wisdom, strength, and for the Lord to rule over your thoughts, words, actions, decisions, and prayers, and we join with you to ask the Heavenly Father for complete victory and blessing. The Lord hears the cries of His children and He is near to those who suffer. Psalm 34:18 says Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Psalm 61:2 says When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock that is higher than I. Lamentations 3:22-23 reminds us It is because of Yahwehs loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his compassion doesnt fail. They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness.
We take comfort that God not only hears your cry but reads your heart, and He promises wisdom and strength to those who ask. James 1:5 says But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. Isaiah 41:10 says Dont you be afraid, for I am with you. Dont be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness. Philippians 4:6-7 says 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.
We pray together with you now.
Heavenly Father, we come before Your throne of grace in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ, and we thank You with all our hearts for the improvement You have already granted to our dear one in this time of pain and crisis. We praise You that You are merciful and compassionate, that Your mercies are new every morning, and that You have not forgotten this cry. Father, we ask that You would have abundant mercy and pour out Your grace, that You would hear this cry and read this heart that trusts only in Jesus. Lord, grant wisdom liberally, grant strength to endure and to overcome, and rule over every thought, word, action, decision, and prayer, that all would be aligned with Your perfect will. Lead this life out of crisis and pain into complete victory and blessing for Your glory. Heal what is wounded, for Psalm 147:3 says He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. Let Your peace that surpasses all understanding guard heart and mind in Christ Jesus, and let Your strength be made perfect in weakness, for 2 Corinthians 12:9 says My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. We ask that You would deliver fully, establish, and bless, and that You would be glorified in this testimony. We ask all this in the Name of Jesus Christ, our only hope, Amen.
We encourage you to continue to cast all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you, 1 Peter 5:7, and to trust that He who began a good work in you will complete it. Romans 8:28 assures us We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose. Keep seeking Him daily in prayer and in His Word, keep thanking Him for what He has done and for what He will do, and rest in the knowledge that your hope in Jesus Christ will never be put to shame. We are standing with you and we have not forgotten you, and more importantly, your Heavenly Father has not forgotten you.
