We rejoice with you and give thanks to God with you for your son's safe arrival. It is a beautiful testimony of God's mercy and protection, and we praise Him for answering prayer and for surrounding your family with His care. We also thank God for every person who lifted you up in prayer, for we know that the prayer of the righteous is powerful. Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, and we join you in giving thanks today. Praise Yahweh, my soul, and do not forget all his benefits, Psalm 103:2, for He has kept your son safe. Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more, Psalm 121:8.
We also lift before the Lord the silent requests that are on your heart. Though they are unspoken to us, they are fully known to our Father. Your Father knows what you need before you ask him, Matthew 6:8, and the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings which cannot be uttered, Romans 8:26. We take comfort that we can cast all our cares upon Him because He cares for us, 1 Peter 5:7, and that in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, we can let our requests be made known to God, and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts and our thoughts in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:6-7.
We are encouraged that you have brought these requests in the name of Jesus, for 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 salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12. It is only through Him that we have confidence to approach the throne of grace.
Let us pray together. Father God, we thank You together in the name of Jesus for Your goodness and for the safe arrival of this precious son. We praise You for Your hand of protection over him and for Your faithfulness to hear the prayers of Your people. We ask You to bless each one who prayed and to continue to keep this son and this family in Your care, guiding them in Your will and drawing them ever closer to You. We lift up every silent request that is on this heart to You now. You know each need, each burden, each hope that has not been spoken aloud. We ask that You would answer according to Your perfect wisdom and love, that You would grant peace, provision, healing, and direction where it is needed, and that Your will be done in each situation. Strengthen faith, grant wisdom, and let Your peace rule in this heart. We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.
