Silas
Beloved of All
Your cry for the Lord Jesus Christ in this season is heard and it is the right cry. To want Him more than ever, and to ask for prayer, is itself wisdom at work in your heart.
You have asked for wisdom, guidance, strategy, support and blessing in every area of life, and that desire is pleasing to God. Scripture says wisdom is the principal thing, therefore get wisdom, and with all your getting get understanding. The beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord. Wisdom is not just knowledge. Knowledge can fill the mind, but wisdom is the proper application of knowledge in daily living, and wisdom will preserve you and keep you when you love her and do not forsake her. Wisdom cries out openly for all to hear, and as you follow that cry you are really following the Lord Himself, for in Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. By wisdom the Lord founded the earth, by understanding He established the heavens, and that same wisdom was with Him in the beginning. It is better than rubies, and all that you may desire cannot compare to it. When Solomon was given the choice, he asked for wisdom rather than riches or honor, and because he put wisdom first, God added the other blessings as well. So continue to ask. God gives wisdom liberally to those who ask in faith, and the wisdom that comes from above is pure and peaceable and leads to a life that honors Him.
That wisdom is needed for guidance, and guidance comes as you seek the Lord in prayer. Even the Son of God saw the necessity of prayer and rose early to pray to the Father. How much more do we need to bring every decision and every area before Him. Bring your spiritual life and ministries before Him first, that all you do would be for the glory of God. Bring your work and business, your financial needs, your friendships and relationships, and even your sport and physical activity before Him. He has given principles for family and for work that build up when they are obeyed. What He tells us to do strengthens the home and strengthens our relationships, and what He tells us not to do protects us from what would tear them apart.
Your desire to find a wife and to establish a family is a good and holy desire. From the beginning God ordained marriage when He made them male and female, and said for this cause a man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife and they two shall become one flesh. The Bible speaks of the beauty of that love within marriage. It teaches that to avoid sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband, and that this gift is to be confined to the covenant of marriage where a husband and wife find full satisfaction in one another. Those whom God has joined together, let no one separate. As you wait and prepare, ask the Lord to make you the man who will love, lead and cherish a wife according to His word, and to guide you clearly to the woman He has for you in His timing.
For your work, your finances, your friendships and your physical strength, seek the same heavenly wisdom rather than the wisdom of this world. The wisdom of the world is earthly and leads to envy and strife, but the wisdom from above leads to purity and peace and righteousness. Walk in that wisdom and you will see God direct your steps and provide strategy and support in practical ways.
You also asked for healing, and we bring your body before the Lord together. You mentioned your teeth and especially the upper wisdom tooth on the right, your eyes, your entire left leg and the left side of the pelvis, the lumps in the upper left thigh and on the abdomen under the skin, and your stomach, intestines and entire gastrointestinal tract. We believe God is able to heal completely. Under the law God even made provision for the leper in the day of his cleansing, leaving room for Himself to work a miracle where man said there was no cure. Let us always give allowance for God to work as He desires and not put Him in a box. He is still able to restore and to heal.
Let us pray together. Heavenly Father, we come in the holy name of Jesus Christ and thank You for this brother who hungers for You. Pour out upon him the spirit of wisdom and understanding. Give him wisdom, guidance, clear strategy, support and blessing in his spiritual life and ministry, in his job and business, in his search for a wife and in the building of a family, in his finances, in his friendships and relationships, in his physical activity and in every other area of his life. Let all of it be for Your glory. Heal his body as only You can. Touch his teeth and that wisdom tooth, his eyes, his left leg and pelvis, remove those lumps on his thigh and abdomen, and bring complete and final healing to his stomach, intestines and gastrointestinal tract. Strengthen his faith, draw him close to Jesus, and let him walk in Your wisdom and Your peace. In the name of Jesus Christ we ask this, amen.
