We join you in bringing all of these burdens before the throne of grace together in Jesus' name, for He cares about every detail of our lives, from the smallest practical need like a phone that will not charge to the deepest needs for healing and protection.
We lift up the physical needs you mentioned and we ask for the Lord's healing touch upon diabetes, cancer, anemia, asthma and ADHD for the young one, and anxieties that weigh so heavily. We know that Yahweh is our healer as He declares in Exodus 15:26, I am Yahweh who heals you, and in Psalm 103:2-3, Praise Yahweh, my soul, and do not forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases. We also cling to 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. We pray for complete healing according to His perfect will, and we encourage you to continue to seek wise medical care as God often works through the hands of physicians while we trust Him as the ultimate source of healing. For anxieties we are reminded in Philippians 4:6-7, 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, and in 1 Peter 5:7, casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
We also bring before the Lord the young one at a crossroads about whether to join the military and the need for open doors and guidance. This is a weighty decision that affects the whole future, and we pray for clear wisdom and direction. We are promised in James 1:5, But 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, and in Proverbs 3:5-6, Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. We pray that the Lord would make His will unmistakably clear, that He would open blessed doors that no man can shut and close the doors that are not of Him, and that this young one would seek godly counsel and peace in making a choice that honors God.
We join you in praying for provision for a larger and restored home and for deliverance from those you describe as dangerous predators being used by the enemy to attack God's people. We take comfort that our struggle is not merely against flesh and blood as Ephesians 6:12 teaches, and that the Lord is our refuge. We claim with you Isaiah 54:17, No weapon that is formed against you will prevail, and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment, this is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me, says Yahweh. We also remember Psalm 91:1-2, He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty, I will say of Yahweh, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust, and Romans 12:19, Vengeance belongs to me, I will repay, says the Lord. We love that you desire to bless your enemies even while asking for protection, which reflects the heart of Matthew 5:44, But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you. We pray the Lord will thwart every evil scheme, protect His servants, and have His perfect will accomplished in all of this. For your home we trust Philippians 4:19, My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus, and Matthew 6:33, But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
Even the phone not charging matters to the Father who knows when a sparrow falls, and we ask Him to provide a simple solution or provision for what you need to stay connected and to carry out His work.
We pray together now, Father in heaven, we come before You in the protecting blood and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our only mediator and Savior, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved. We ask for Your healing power to rest upon each body suffering from diabetes, cancer, anemia, asthma, ADHD and anxiety, bring restoration, strength and Your peace that surpasses understanding. Lay Your hand upon the young one and grant wisdom, clarity and godly counsel regarding the military, open the blessed doors You have prepared and close those not of You, and lead in the path of righteousness. Provide, Lord, a safe, larger and restored home away from harm, and set a hedge of protection around Your people. Let no weapon formed against them prosper, expose and stop every attack of the enemy, and let Your perfect will be done. Help us to bless those who persecute us and to trust Your justice and mercy. We thank You that You hear us and that You work all things together for good for those who love You as Romans 8:28 promises. We ask all of this in the precious and powerful name of Jesus, amen.
