We join with you in lifting every area of your life before our Heavenly Father and we rejoice that you desire above all that everything be for God's glory and that you have called upon the holy name of Jesus Christ, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved and by which we have access to the Father. As it is written, Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6, and there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. We thank God that you have put your trust in Him.
We are encouraged by your hunger for wisdom, guidance, strategy, support and blessing in every area, and we pray that the Lord will pour these out abundantly upon you. 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 pray you will trust in the Lord with all your heart, and not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight Proverbs 3:5-6. We are reminded to seek first God's Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well Matthew 6:33, and that whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God 1 Corinthians 10:31.
We lift up your spiritual life and ministries in the Lord, that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God Colossians 1:10. We pray for your business and job and the financial area, that God will grant you diligence, integrity and favor, and that you will remember it is he who gives you power to get wealth, and that our God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:19. May you be a faithful steward in all that He entrusts to you.
We especially rejoice that you desire to look for a wife and to start a family according to God's design. This is good and pleasing to the Lord, for marriage is ordained by God as a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, and we strongly endorse and encourage this godly desire. We pray that the Lord will lead you to a godly wife, a fellow believer in Jesus Christ, for we are not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers 2 Corinthians 6:14. We encourage you to pursue courtship with the goal of marriage, not merely as boyfriend and girlfriend, but as a relationship that honors God in purity and holiness, fleeing from fornication and all sexual immorality, for the body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord 1 Corinthians 6:18-20, and that marriage is honorable in all and the bed undefiled Hebrews 13:4. May the Lord prepare both you and your future wife to love and serve Christ together and to build a Christ centered home.
We also lift up your relationships and friendships, that God will surround you with faithful brothers and sisters who will sharpen you as iron sharpens iron Proverbs 27:17, and your sport and physical activity, that you will honor God with your body which is a temple of the Holy Spirit 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, using strength with discipline and thanksgiving.
We bring before the Lord your physical needs for complete healing, your teeth and especially the upper wisdom tooth on the right, your eyes, the entire left leg and the left side of the pelvis, the lump in the upper part of the left leg in the thigh, the subcutaneous lump on the abdomen, and your stomach, intestines and entire gastrointestinal tract. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ for your healing, for He is the Lord who heals us Exodus 15:26 and who forgives all our iniquities and heals all our diseases Psalm 103:2-3. By his wounds you have been healed Isaiah 53:5 and 1 Peter 2:24, and we claim His promise that He will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds Jeremiah 30:17. We ask for wisdom for any treatment needed and for the Lord's merciful touch to bring complete and lasting healing according to His will.
Heavenly Father, we come together in the name of Jesus Christ and lift up our brother to Your throne of grace. Grant him wisdom, clear guidance, holy strategy, daily support and abundant blessing in his spiritual walk, his ministry, his work and business, his finances, his friendships, his physical activity and every other area of his life. Lead him to the godly wife You have prepared for him, that they may be equally yoked and enter into holy marriage for Your glory and for the building of a family that loves You. Touch his body and heal his teeth, his eyes, his left leg and pelvis, remove every lump and restore his stomach and gastrointestinal system to full health. Let all that he is and all that he does be for Your glory alone. Strengthen his faith, guard his heart in Christ Jesus, and let him experience Your peace that surpasses all understanding Philippians 4:7. We ask all this in the holy and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
