We are deeply encouraged by your hunger for the Lord Jesus Christ and we count it a privilege to join with you in prayer for every area of your life. We rejoice that you desire all things to be for God's glory, for that is the highest and holiest purpose. So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God, 1 Corinthians 10:31, and whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him, Colossians 3:17.
We lift up your desire for wisdom, guidance, strategy, support and blessing. Scripture assures us, 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, James 1:5. We cling to the promise, Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight, Proverbs 3:5-6, and I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you, Psalm 32:8.
For your spiritual life and ministries, we pray the Lord will keep you rooted in His Word, fervent in prayer, and empowered by the Holy Spirit to bear lasting fruit. For your business and job, we pray you will work heartily as for the Lord and not for men, Colossians 3:23, and that God will establish the work of your hands and provide for all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:19.
We are especially encouraged that you desire to look for a wife and start a family. This is a holy and God-honoring desire. The Scripture says, Whosoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh, Proverbs 18:22, and that God said, It is not good that the man should be alone, Genesis 2:18. We pray you will pursue this in purity and with biblical purpose, seeking a godly wife who is a sincere believer in Christ, for courtship should be with the goal of marriage between a man and a woman who are both in Christ, not being unequally yoked, 2 Corinthians 6:14. We encourage you to guard yourself from fornication and to keep the marriage bed holy, for marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled, but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers, Hebrews 13:4. We pray the Lord will prepare you to be a loving, sacrificial husband and father as Christ loves the church, and prepare your future wife for you in His perfect timing.
For your finances, relationships and friendships, sport and physical activity, and every other area, we pray you will seek first God's Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well, Matthew 6:33, and that the Lord will surround you with godly fellowship that sharpens you as iron sharpens iron, Proverbs 27:17.
We also bring before the Lord your body for complete healing. You have asked for your teeth especially the upper wisdom tooth on the right, your eyes, the entire left leg and left side of the pelvis, the ball in the upper part of the left leg in the thigh, the ball on the abdomen under the skin, and your stomach, intestines and gastrointestinal tract. We pray for the Lord's healing touch upon each of these places. We remember that He says, I am Yahweh who heals you, Exodus 15:26, and But I will restore health to you and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh, Jeremiah 30:17, and that by His wounds we are healed, Isaiah 53:5. We ask for wisdom for any needed medical care as well, trusting that every good gift comes from the Father above.
Let us pray together.
Heavenly Father, we come before Your throne of grace in the holy name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, our only hope and Savior. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 1 Timothy 2:5, and in no other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12. Lord, we thank You for our brother's desire to walk closely with You. Pour out upon him wisdom, guidance, strategy, support and blessing in every area he has lifted up. Anoint his spiritual life and ministries for Your glory, bless the work of his hands in business and employment, provide for his financial needs and teach him to be a faithful steward, surround him with godly friendships and relationships that encourage holiness, and strengthen his body for sport and physical activity. Above all, prepare him and his future wife for a Christ-centered marriage and family that reflects Your covenant love. Touch his body now, Lord, heal his teeth and wisdom tooth, his eyes, his left leg and pelvis, remove the masses in his thigh and abdomen, and restore his stomach, intestines and entire gastrointestinal tract to full health according to Your will. Let everything in his life be for Your glory and for the honor of Jesus Christ. We ask this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer, amen.
We encourage you to continue steadfast in prayer, in the Word, and in fellowship with believers, trusting that God is working all things together for good for those who love Him, Romans 8:28. Wait on the Lord, be strong, and let your heart take courage, Psalm 27:14. We are standing with you.
