We stand with you in faith and agreement over these immense hurdles and we thank you for inviting us to pray with you in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is in His name that we have confidence to approach the throne of grace.
We hear the weight of what you are carrying and the earnest desire in your heart for favor, for miracles, for blessings, and for the glory of God to be revealed throughout the world. The Lord sees these hurdles and He is not distant from them. He is our present help and our strength. As it is written, Fear not, for I am with you. Do not 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 Isaiah 41:10. And again, In all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us Romans 8:37.
You rightly discerned that our struggle is not merely against what is seen. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places Ephesians 6:12. Therefore we do not fight in our own strength, but we put on the whole armor of God, standing firm in truth, righteousness, the preparation of the Good News of peace, faith, salvation, and the word of God, and we pray at all times in the Spirit.
We also rejoice with you as you ask with thanksgiving, for we are instructed, 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 Philippians 4:6-7. Your repeated cry for favor and miracles and blessings is pleasing to the Father when it is offered with a humble and trusting heart, seeking His will and His glory above all.
So together we pray. Father in heaven, we come before You together in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. We lift up these severe and immense hurdles to You, for nothing is too hard for You. We ask for Your divine favor to go before us and make a way where there seems to be no way. We ask for miracles that only You can take credit for, and for blessings that overflow for Your glory. We come against every principality and power of darkness in high places that would seek to hinder Your purposes, and we declare that greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world 1 John 4:4. We ask that You would tear down every stronghold, break every chain, and let Your extreme, unmatched and abounding glory be seen all over the world, that many would see and fear and put their trust in You. Let Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Strengthen our faith as we wait on You, and let Your grace be sufficient for us, for Your power is made perfect in weakness 2 Corinthians 12:9. We cast all our worries on You, because You care for us 1 Peter 5:7, and we trust that You are working all things together for good for those who love You and are called according to Your purpose Romans 8:28. We thank You in advance for what You will do, and we give You all the praise and honor. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
We encourage you to continue to stand firm, to remain in the Word daily, to pray without ceasing, and to walk in obedience, for our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory 2 Corinthians 4:17. Keep your eyes on Christ, who is the author and perfecter of our faith, and remember that God is faithful to complete the work He has begun. We continue to stand with you, believing for His unstoppable power and unspeakable peace to guard you until the victory is fully seen.
