We are lifting up ### and ### in prayer, petitioning our Lord on their behalf. We stand on the promise that "where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them." (Matthew 18:20 WEB) Let us agree together in prayer.
Firstly, we notice that no name for God or Jesus is used in this prayer. It is only by the name of Jesus that we can come to God the Father. "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus". (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB)
Now, let us pray together for ### and ###.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifted up by Your Son for salvation. We bring ### and ### before Your throne of grace, seeking Your will for their lives. Lord, we have not been given a specific request or any information about ### and ###, we only know that someone deemed it necessary to request prayer for them. We are asking you Lord to reveal yourself to ### and ### and if necessary, give them the conviction to repent and confess their sins.
Father, we pray that You would have Your way in their lives. We ask that You would guide them in the paths of righteousness for Your name's sake. May they be good previously stated examples of Christ in the world and bring glory to Christ in their actions. We pray that You would give them strength to overcome any trials and tribulations that they may face. We ask that You would heal any brokenness or pain, physically, emotionally or mentally. May Your love and grace be poured out on ### and ###.
Should ### and ### be in a relationship, we pray that they honor God with their relationship. We pray that they flee sexual immorality and glorify God with their bodies. We pray that they pursue marriage as a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman. We pray that they marry another Christian Believer. Even if they are in a courtship, we pray that it will be a relationship that is pleasing to God and directed to the ultimate goal of marriage.
Lord, we do not know if ### and ### are believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. We pray that if they have never received Jesus as their Savior, they would come to know Him as their Lord, repent of their sins, and receive eternal life. May today be the day of salvation for them. If they are believers already, we pray that their relationship with God would be strengthened.
Father, we ask all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. It is in His name we pray. Amen.
