Lord Jesus please grant strong protection for my family and I, esp. ### (I plead the blood of Jesus over us and ask for a wall of Holy Spirit fire around each of us and your mighty warrior angels to surround us according to Ps 91, Ps. 34:7, Zech. 2:5, Isaiah 54:17, Isaiah 59:19, Ps3:3, 2 Thess. 3:2-3, Jeremiah 15:20-21, Romans 8:31) and I ask for salvation (Your arm is not too short to save Lord.

[Articles]

We join with you in lifting up your family and yourself before the throne of grace in the mighty name of Lord Jesus, and we thank you for anchoring your prayer so firmly in Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is only by His name that we are saved, as it is written Acts 4:12, There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved.

We hear your cry for strong protection and we agree with you for that wall of fire and the ministry of His angels around each of you. We pray that the Lord will be a wall of fire around you as He promised in Zechariah 2:5, I will be to her a wall of fire around it, says Yahweh, and I will be the glory in the middle of her. We claim Psalm 91:1, He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty, and Psalm 34:7, Yahweh's angel encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them, and Psalm 3:3, But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head. We plead the blood of Jesus over you and your household and ask for His warrior angels to encamp around you, for 2 Thessalonians 3:3 says, But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one, and Romans 8:31 reminds us, If God is for us, who can be against us, and Isaiah 54:17 declares, No weapon that is formed against you will prevail.

We also stand with you for salvation, deliverance, healing, reconciliation and unity and a mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon your whole family. You have prayed rightly from Jeremiah 17:14, Heal me, O Yahweh, and I will be healed. Save me, and I will be saved, for you are my praise, and from Isaiah 53:5, But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed, and Jeremiah 30:17, For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. We ask the Lord to pour His love into your hearts as Romans 5:5 says, God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us, and to give you new hearts as promised in Ezekiel 36:26, I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. We pray Psalm 23:3 over your souls, He restores my soul, and Joel 2:25 for restoration of what seems hopelessly broken, I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten. We claim Galatians 3:13, Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us, and ask Him to break every curse and turn it into blessing. We pray Acts 16:31 over each member of your household, Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household, and Acts 2:21, Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.

We understand how difficult and painful things have been with these attacks and abuse, and we praise God with you for all He has already done and answered, even while you wait for complete deliverance. We encourage you to continue to trust Him and not lean on your own understanding, for Proverbs 3:5 says, Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. We ask the Lord to give you supernatural trust and faith, for faith is a gift of the Spirit according to 1 Corinthians 12:9, and to manifest in you all the fruit of the Spirit, for Galatians 5:22 says, But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control.

We want to lovingly address what you confessed, that you spoke badly about others behind their backs and vented your frustration and that there has been explosive anger in your heart and fear. We gently rebuke gossip and venting and uncontrolled anger, for they do not align with God's will, as Ephesians 4:29 says, Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear, and Ephesians 4:26 says, Be angry, and don't sin. Don't let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the devil, and 2 Timothy 1:7 says, For God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. We thank God for your repentant heart, and we claim 1 John 1:9, If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. We pray the Lord will help you to do better, to speak only what is helpful for building others up, to put off anger and to walk in His perfect love which casts out fear.

Concerning the many relationships you mentioned for those whose names were redacted, we pray that the Lord will intervene powerfully. We believe marriage is a lifelong covenant between a man and a woman as God designed, and that courtship should be with the goal of godly marriage to another believer in Christ. We pray that any relationship that is not aligned with biblical principles, any relationship marked by fornication or dysfunction or unequal yoking, would be rebuked and stopped by the Lord, and that He would heal wounds and bring either godly restoration in marriage or a gracious separation that leads to holiness. We pray Hebrews 13:4 over every relationship, Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled, but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers, and 1 Corinthians 6:18, Flee sexual immorality. We pray especially for favor in school for your loved ones with teachers and fellow students, for supernatural confidence in the Lord, for help with homework and understanding, for healing of trauma and rejection and abandonment, for protected sleep, for help with vacation and the new responsibilities at work, and for the Lord to take over where you feel overwhelmed.

We lift up your prayer ministry and your gatherings, including this Friday evening, your devotions, the sermon and workshop and Live Nativity and worship, and the meeting today. We ask the Lord to powerfully anoint, protect, guide and empower your prayer gatherings and to pour out the fire of His Holy Spirit, to anoint your lips for the sermon and tell you exactly what to say, for He promises in Exodus 4:12, Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall speak. We pray for those in conflict and those who feel overlooked, that the Lord would bring conviction where needed, comfort where there is hurt, and encouragement and breakthrough overall, as Isaiah 41:10 says, Don't you be afraid, for I am with you. Don't 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.

Father, we come together in the name of Lord Jesus and thank You for all You have already done and for hearing us again. We plead the blood of Jesus over this dear one and every member of their family, set a wall of Holy Spirit fire around each one, station Your mighty angels around them, save those who are not yet saved, deliver the oppressed, heal the sick and wounded in body and soul, reconcile what is divided, bring unity, forgive gossip and anger and fear as it is confessed, pour Your love into their hearts, give new hearts and renewed minds, restore their souls, break every curse, restore the years the locust has eaten, protect sleep and school and work, intervene in every relationship according to Your perfect will and stop what is not of You, anoint the prayer gathering this Friday and every devotion and sermon and worship, and let Your glory be seen in a mighty way in all their lives. We ask You to send great encouragement and strength and to help them not lose sight of Your faithfulness while waiting for complete deliverance. We pray all this in the holy and powerful name of Lord Jesus. Amen.

 

[hostadmin]

We have been reading your prayer and we hear both the weight and the worship in it. You are asking God for protection and healing and salvation for your whole family while also pausing to thank Him for how much He has already done, and holding those two together while you wait is hard.

We are encouraged that you want to trust Him more than your own understanding, even with the attacks and painful history you mentioned. That kind of trust often grows slowly, as we bring the same requests back to Him and let Him shape our hearts with His love and peace over time.

Since you named so many needs, it may help to bring the one or two heaviest burdens to a trusted pastor or mature believer who knows you, so you have steady, face to face prayer support alongside your Friday prayer gathering. You do not have to carry all of this alone, and having someone who can listen and pray with you week by week can be a real anchor.

Father, we lift this family to You in Jesus name. Cover them with Your protection, bring healing where there has been hurt and trauma, draw each one closer to Jesus for salvation, and restore what feels broken in Your timing and way. Give our friend strength and encouragement today, renewed trust, and peace in waiting, and guide every step at home, school and work. May Your name be glorified in their lives. Amen.

 

[Nochaeld]

God Our Father Almighty, in Jesus' Name we thank You for pouring out The Holy Spirit of Grace and Supplication to All who desire Him, Zech 12:10, delivering us from coldness of heart and wanderings of mind so that with steadfast heart and kindled affections we might worship You in Spirit and in Truth, Common Prayer. Grant fervency James 5:16-17, and assiduity, Luke 18:1-3, Eph 6:18-19, that love may abound in discernment and wisdom to all who ask, Phil 1:9-11, Col 1:9-12. Important times to pray and not loose heart, Luke 18:1-3, 1 Tim 2:1-3, for "ability to stay alert at all times, praying for strength to escape all that's coming upon the face of the whole earth, Luke 21:35-36. Keep us from the evil one, deception, lies, false believers and false prophets, false "christ's," false signs and wonders, temptation and sin, Matt 6:13, Matt 24:4-14, 2 Tim 3:5, Tit 1:16, John 17:15. .1 Cor 8:1, Zeph 3:13, 2 Cor 13:7. Thank You and you in Jesus' Name.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your prayer, so burdened and so full of thanksgiving at once, is heard by Him who never shuts His ear to the cries of His people. You have spread your griefs before the Lord, and that is the right place for them, for it is a glorious thing to have such a well in the family, where in prayer you can bring all the necessities of the household before God, and mention each child and each trouble and each expected difficulty of the coming day.

We join you first in praise, for you declare like the psalmist, I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord. You have seen much already that God has done, and you rightly give thanks. If we had no troubles we would have less to declare, but He has chastened and He has also delivered, and therefore gratitude should be deeper and song more jubilant.

You plead for strong protection, for a wall of fire and for warrior angels round about you according to Psalm 91 and Zechariah 2:5 and other precious promises. Remember that deliverance from a cruel captivity must be worked by the hand and outstretched arm of Jehovah alone. He brought them forth. Willingly as we pray and watch, it is still true, He brings forth. Pray then not as though God were reluctant, but as one who trusts the Keeper of Israel who neither slumbers nor sleeps, to keep you in all your ways according to His wise and sovereign will.

You ask for salvation, deliverance and healing for your whole family. Here is our comfort, that there is an abundance of healing power in Jesus Christ and His salvation. Not only is His fruit sweet and nourishing, but the leaves, the little things as it were about Christ, are full of healing virtue. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations, and the least thing about Christ is healing. These healing leaves change the life blood and make the nature other than it was before. And this healing is joined to pardon. When Jesus healed the sick of the palsy He said, Son, be of good cheer, your sins are forgiven you. Pardon and healing were one. So we pray that each one you have named would know that higher restoration than recovery from bodily sickness, even the deliverance of a sinner from the pit of hell through a ransom. God has invented a way of deliverance and He has found a ransom, and that ransom is Christ Himself. Salvation is through Jesus Christ alone, for His arm is not too short to save, and there is no other name by which we must be saved. We ask that He would pour His love into your hearts, give new hearts and new minds according to Ezekiel 36, restore your souls as in Psalm 23, and turn curses into blessings, for Christ has redeemed us from the curse, being made a curse for us.

Concerning the many relationships and difficulties you lay before the Lord, the painful attacks and abuse, the wounds and trauma and rejection, the school and teachers, the homework and understanding, the work and responsibilities, the sleep and the daily needs, we bring them all to Him who restores what seems so hopelessly broken, for He promises to restore the years that the locust has eaten. We pray for supernatural trust and faith, for peace and joy and all the fruit of the Spirit to be manifest among you, for reconciliation and unity where it is according to truth and holiness.

And where you ask for intervention in relationships, we must pray as Scripture teaches. We do not ask God to bless what is not according to His holy design, for marriage is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and sex and living together belong within it. What is outside that pattern, however strongly desired or entangled, is not to be affirmed or celebrated, but brought into the light of Christ for repentance, cleansing and renewal. So for every relationship you have named, whether it be ### and I or others, we pray not that God would bless dysfunction or preserve what is harmful, but that He would either establish it in holiness and lifelong fidelity according to His ordinance, or in mercy separate and deliver and heal, and prevent another disastrous and dysfunctional union. We pray that wounds would be healed, that those who have done wrong would be rebuked and brought to conviction, that favor where it is right would be given in school and elsewhere, and above all that each person would be saved and made new in Christ. For any who are living together or entangled sexually outside of marriage, we pray for the grace to pursue purity, for strength to live chastely, and for a desire for that which honors God.

You have also confessed sins of speaking against others behind their backs and explosive anger in the heart and fear. This is good and honest confession. Where we have bewailed our fault we have received deliverance. When the root of bitterness is taken away the evil which grows out of it is also removed. Seek pardon and healing together through our Lord Jesus, for He who pardons also heals. That look of Christ which severed Peter from the crowd and restored him after his fall is still able to restore you. Till Peter had received from the Lord's own mouth abundant assurance of his restoration we do not find him again in the forefront, and so the Lord can lift you up again and make you a better Christian ever afterwards. Confess, receive forgiveness, and walk in newness.

We pray also for your prayer gatherings, especially this Friday evening, and for your devotions, your prayer ministry, your sermon and workshop and Live Nativity and worship. May the Lord anoint powerfully, guide your tongue to speak exactly what He would have said, and use it for salvation. May He pour out the fire of His Holy Spirit not as mere excitement but as holy power to convict and to comfort. May He protect and guide and empower all who gather to pray, and work in hearts to come together.

You feel overlooked and you wait long for complete deliverance, healing and salvation for all. Remember the word, The Lord has chastened me sorely, but He has not given me over unto death. The clock of mercy strikes in heaven the hour and moment of deliverance, for the time had come, thus has the eternal purpose of Jehovah decreed it. Help me not to lean on my understanding but to trust you, you pray, and that is the right prayer. Trust Him in the brook Jabbok, and you shall yet meet with mercy where you feared wrath, and you shall have a song of deliverance to sing.

May the Lord grant you encouragement and strength, keep you from losing sight of what He has already done, and bring you to declare with Deborah and Barak and with all the redeemed, that you have been delivered from worse enemies and saved by a greater salvation. Let your gratitude be deeper and your song more jubilant in Christ Jesus, in whose holy name we pray. Amen.

[Jonathan_M]

Praying for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

We join you in prayer before the Lord Jesus Christ and we thank God with you for your honest, persevering cry and for your thankfulness for all He has already done. We have heard your many requests for protection, salvation, deliverance, healing and restoration for yourself and your family, and we bring them to Him who alone is our salvation.

We ask the Lord to cover you and your household under His wings according to Psalm 91 and to command His angels to encamp around those who fear Him. We ask Him to be a wall of fire around you as He promised, to guard your going out and coming in, to protect your sleep, your home, your work, your school, and your time away. We ask not on the basis of our own merit, but through the blood of Jesus shed on the cross, for there is salvation in no one else.

We pray for the salvation of every member of your family. God's arm is not too short to save, and we ask Him to open eyes, grant repentance and faith in Christ alone, give new hearts and new minds, and pour His love into your hearts through the Holy Spirit. We pray that He would restore your souls, turn what the enemy meant for evil into blessing through Christ who became a curse for us, and restore the years that have felt broken and hopeless. We pray for healing according to His mercy, for deliverance from oppression and trauma, for reconciliation and true unity that comes through truth and love.

For every relationship you named, we pray that the Lord would bring each one under His Lordship and into conformity with His holy design. We do not ask Him to bless what does not honor Him, but we ask Him to bring conviction where there is sin, purity where there is temptation, and holiness in all things. We pray that any romantic relationship would either be guided into a lifelong covenant of marriage between one man and one woman lived in purity, or be graciously ended and healed for the good of all involved. We ask Him to heal wounds of rejection and abandonment, to give wisdom to parents and children, to grant favor and integrity in school and work, and to guard against relationships that would lead away from Him.

We thank God that you have confessed speaking against others behind their backs, explosive anger, fear and frustration. Scripture promises that if we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us through Jesus and to cleanse us. We ask Him to forgive you, to soften and strengthen your heart, to help you speak with grace and truth, and to make you an instrument of reconciliation where there has been conflict and where you have felt overlooked.

We pray for your request for supernatural trust and faith. The Christian life requires more than one part of virtue. It requires careful hearing of the Word and continual remembrance of it, fortitude in affliction, love that shapes all gifts and service, and deliverance from worldly entanglements. We ask the Lord to help you hear His Word daily, to remember it, to grow in fortitude and in love, and to bear the fruit of the Spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.

We know you have felt weighed down beyond your strength, as the apostle Paul wrote that he was burdened exceedingly in Asia beyond his power. God allowed that so that Paul would not trust in himself but in God who raises the dead and who delivered him. In the same way, those who suffered before us did not accept escape at the cost of unfaithfulness, because they looked for a better resurrection. We ask God to use even these painful attacks and long waiting to teach you to trust not in your own understanding but in Him, and to keep before you the hope of resurrection and eternal life with Christ.

We lift up your prayer gatherings, your devotions, your prayer ministry, your sermons, workshops and times of worship including this Friday evening. We ask the Lord to anoint, protect and guide them, to empower you to speak His Word clearly, to draw people to pray together, and to use it all for salvation and encouragement. We pray for your daily responsibilities, for help with understanding and work, for teachers and students, and for all the specific needs and people you named before the Lord. He knows each name and each situation fully.

May the Lord grant you encouragement and strength while you wait for complete deliverance, healing and salvation for all. May He keep you from losing sight of what He has already answered, and may He be glorified in a mighty way in your life and in your family. We ask all this in the holy name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

 

[usha rani]

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Silas]

Your honest prayer is heard and I thank you for sharing the weight you have been carrying. The pain, the attacks, the long waiting and the love you have for your family are all before the Lord, and He invites you to trust Him and not lean on your own understanding.

I join you in thanking God for what He has already done. Keeping a thankful heart while you are still waiting for complete deliverance and healing is a strong and good posture, and God honors it.

For protection, you are right to look to the promises of Scripture. The Lord is your shield and your refuge, His angels encamp around those who fear Him, He is a wall of fire around His people, no weapon formed against you will finally prosper, and if God is for us who can be against us. Ask Him daily to cover you and your household, not as a formula but as a child asking a faithful Father who hears.

For salvation, Scripture ties salvation directly to the grace of God. That grace which brings salvation has appeared to all through Jesus, and it is received as a gift, not earned. His name itself means the Lord is salvation, for He saves His people from their sins. The Bible says if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved, for with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. To confess and submit to Him now is salvation and eternal life. There will be a day when every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that He is Lord, but that confession then will not be unto salvation, it will be the acknowledgment of those who rejected Him. That is why Scripture urges, now is the accepted time, now is the day of salvation. Do not put off God's offer and do not receive His grace in vain. This great salvation was first spoken by the Lord Jesus Himself, it is open to whosoever will come, and He will not cast out any who come to Him. It reaches the lowest sinner and it is more than forgiveness, it is the promise of being brought into glory as sons and daughters in the family of God, with Jesus as the captain and author of our salvation who was made complete through suffering to bring many sons to glory. Your salvation and the salvation of your loved ones rests entirely outside your own ability, on His grace and His finished work on the cross, and even the faith to believe it is His gift.

Because salvation is by grace, the call to work out your own salvation with fear and trembling is not a call to work for your salvation. Many hear that verse alone and think they must earn it. The very next words explain that it is God who works in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure. You work out what He has worked in. Walk diligently and reverently, obeying Him in His presence, trusting that He is the one at work within you.

For healing, reconciliation and restoration, bring every need to Him. He does heal. Isaiah speaks of the suffering servant and Matthew shows that His suffering covers both spiritual and physical healing, and when we remember His body broken for us we remember that provision. At the same time Scripture shows we cannot presume He wills instant healing in every case. Paul prayed three times for the thorn in his flesh and the Lord did not remove it. Jesus Himself healed in different ways, sometimes instantly with a touch, sometimes with a word from a distance, and once gradually, and any healing, whether sudden or through the slow processes God built into our bodies, is still from Him. What is certain is that the greatest miracle is the salvation of the soul, the forgiveness of sins, and that is more important than any physical relief. Keep asking for healing for your family, for the wounds and trauma and rejection you named, for sleep and strength, for school and work and daily responsibilities, while trusting His wisdom over the timing and manner.

For reconciliation and unity, God has given us the ministry of reconciliation, but we can only be reconciled to Him as we walk in the Spirit and deny the self centered life of the flesh, taking up the cross to follow Him. Ask Him to pour His love into your hearts as Romans says, to give you new hearts and new minds and to restore your souls as the Shepherd does in Psalm 23, to cause you to walk in love, peace, joy and all the fruit of the Spirit. He promises to turn the curse into blessing because Christ became a curse for us, and to restore what seems hopelessly broken and to restore the years that have been lost. Believe Him for that restoration.

For the relationships you mentioned, I pray with you for God's holy and healing work. Where there are painful, dysfunctional or abusive patterns, ask the Lord to bring conviction, protection, and deliverance, and to draw each person to purity and truth. I cannot ask God to bless any relationship that is outside His design, since His design for sexual intimacy and living together belongs within the lifelong covenant of marriage between one man and one woman, and salvation itself is through Jesus Christ alone. Instead I pray that every relationship in your family would be brought under His Lordship, that what is harmful would be stopped, that wounds would be healed, that favor and kindness would be shown where it is needed in school and elsewhere, and that God would lead each person into what is whole and right before Him.

For your own heart, you have already asked forgiveness for speaking against others and for explosive anger, and God is faithful to forgive when we confess. Ask Him to guard your mouth, to help you handle conflict directly and gently, and to replace fear and frustration with His peace and self control.

For your prayer times and ministry to others, ask Him to anoint, protect and guide you, to give you wisdom for devotions and for any message you share, and to draw others to pray. The bond we have as the family of God can be even closer than natural family ties when family members do not yet know the Lord, and gathering with other believers to seek His presence and power is a great gift.

May the Lord hear your cry for strong protection, for deliverance, for healing, for unity, for new hearts, and above all for the salvation of your whole household. Continue to trust Him, give thanks, and look to Jesus alone. I pray this in the holy name of Jesus, Amen.
