We hear your cry for mercy and we join with you in lifting this unspoken request to the throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ alone, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father.
We rejoice that you are calling upon Jesus in His name and in His name only, for there is no other name by which we can be saved and no other mediator between God and man. As it is written, Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6 and There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus 1 Timothy 2:5. We praise God that you understand this truth and we stand with you in that confidence.
We understand your desire to believe your prayer has already been answered and to keep this matter as an unspoken request before the Lord. God indeed knows the unspoken cries of our hearts even before we speak them. You know when I sit down and when I rise up. You perceive my thoughts from afar Psalm 139:2 and also Your Father knows what things you need before you ask him Matthew 6:8 and In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered Romans 8:26. It is right and biblical to bring even unspoken burdens to Him in secret, for your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly Matthew 6:6.
We also encourage you in what it means to believe. Jesus said, Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them Mark 11:24. This is a precious promise, and we join our faith with yours. Yet scripture also teaches us to pray according to His will, for This is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us 1 John 5:14. True faith trusts not only that God can do the impossible, for nothing spoken by God is impossible Luke 1:37 and what was compared to Moses opening the Red Sea reminds us that our God still parts seas, but true faith also surrenders to His perfect will and timing, knowing His answer may be yes, no, or wait, and all are given in love. So we pray with you not with demand but with trust that He will do what is best.
We also hear your hurt over those you felt mocked and insulted this prayer to make themselves look good. We understand how painful it is when a sincere burden is belittled. We gently encourage you to guard your heart against assuming motives, for we cannot fully know another’s heart, and to respond as Christ calls us to respond. We are told, Bless those who persecute you, bless, and don’t curse Romans 12:14 and 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 Matthew 5:44. We are also warned, Be careful that you don’t do your charitable giving before men, to be seen by them Matthew 6:1, so if anyone does seek self praise by belittling others, that is between them and the Lord. Our part is to forgive, to not repay evil for evil Romans 12:17, and to keep our eyes on Jesus rather than on the opinions of others. We choose to pray for those who have caused you pain, that God would bless them and draw them closer to Himself.
We now pray together for you and this unspoken burden.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Your Son. We thank You that You know every detail of this unspoken request, every tear, every longing, every circumstance that we cannot fully express. Lord, have mercy as Your child has cried out. We ask that You would be glorified in this situation and that Your will be done. We ask for faith that does not waver, as written, But let him ask in faith, without any doubting James 1:6, yet faith that also rests in Your wisdom. Comfort this heart, Lord, remove anxiety and grant perfect peace that surpasses understanding. Heal any wound caused by harsh words or mocking, and help us to forgive as You have forgiven us. Let no bitterness take root. We pray for those who were perceived as malicious, that You would bless them, convict where needed, and teach us all humility. We trust You with this unspoken matter, believing You hear us and that You will answer according to Your perfect love and power. We wait expectantly for Your deliverance, knowing You are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
We encourage you to continue to bring this unspoken request before Him daily in secret, with thanksgiving, trusting His heart even as you trust His hand. Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen Hebrews 11:1. Keep hoping, keep trusting, keep walking faithfully, and He will direct your path.
