We join with you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and count it a blessing to stand with you in prayer, for you have asked according to what God desires for His children. We rejoice that you have put your need before the Lord Jesus Christ, for there is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved and no other name by which we have access to the Father. As it is written, There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 1 Timothy 2:5 and Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me, John 14:6. Your desire that all things be for God's glory is the right foundation, for whether you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God, 1 Corinthians 10:31.
We lift up every area you have entrusted to us. For your spiritual life and ministries, we pray that the Lord will keep you rooted and growing, for we are told to seek first God's Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well, Matthew 6:33. For wisdom, guidance, strategy, support and blessing in every area, we claim the promise that 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 and Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight, Proverbs 3:5-6.
For your business and job and for the financial area, we pray that God will give you diligence, integrity and favor, and that He will supply your needs according to His riches. We remember the word, My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:19 and Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, Colossians 3:23. We ask for open doors that no man can shut and for strategy that honors the Lord.
We especially rejoice in your desire to look for a wife and to start a family, for this aligns with God's perfect design. We believe marriage is a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, created by God for His glory and for our good, as it is written, For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh, Genesis 2:24 and Whosoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh, Proverbs 18:22. We pray that the Lord will prepare you as a godly husband and prepare your future wife as a godly wife, that you will meet in purity and court with the goal of marriage to another believer in Christ. We encourage you to guard yourself from fornication and to pursue this relationship in holiness, for the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, 1 Corinthians 6:13 and Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled, Hebrews 13:4. We pray that God will not give you a partner in the worldly sense, but a wife, a helpmate who loves Jesus first.
For relationships and friendships, we pray for fellowship that sharpens you and keeps you accountable, for Iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend, Proverbs 27:17 and for sport and physical activity, we pray for strength and discipline as you steward the body God has given you, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's, 1 Corinthians 6:20.
We also bring your body before the Great Physician. We pray for your teeth, especially the upper wisdom tooth on the right, for your eyes, for the entire left leg and the left side of the pelvis, for the ball in the upper part of the left leg in the thigh, for the ball on the abdomen under the skin, and for your stomach, intestines and entire gastrointestinal tract. We ask for complete and final healing in the name of Jesus Christ, for He is Yahweh who heals you, Exodus 15:26 and we remember, Bless Yahweh, my soul, Don't forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, Psalm 103:2-3 and By his stripes, we are healed, Isaiah 53:5. We pray as Jeremiah prayed, Heal me, O Yahweh, and I shall be healed, Jeremiah 17:14 and we trust that He will restore health to you.
We pray together now. Heavenly Father, we come before Your throne of grace in the holy name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother to You. Lord, pour out wisdom, guidance, strategy, support and blessing upon every area of his life, his spiritual walk, his ministries, his business and job, his finances, his friendships and his physical stewardship. Prepare him and his future wife for a godly marriage that will glorify You, keep him pure and lead him to the woman You have chosen for him. Father, touch his body with Your healing hand, heal his teeth and gums, his eyes, his leg and pelvis, remove every abnormal growth and bring complete healing to his stomach and intestines, that he may serve You in health and strength. Let all that he does be for Your glory alone. Give him peace as he casts his cares upon You, for You care for him, 1 Peter 5:7. We ask this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, Amen.
