We join with you in prayer for these important requests, seeking God's will and intervention in these matters.
Firstly, we pray for innocent African American Christian men who are facing health challenges such as hypertension, high blood pressure, stroke, and heart attacks. We also pray for their protection from enemies and spiritual wickedness that may be operating against their lives. We stand in agreement with you, declaring that by the stripes of Jesus, they are healed and delivered from these issues. As it is written in 1 Peter 2:24 WEB, "He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. By his wounds you were healed." We pray that God will miraculously intervene in July and beyond, providing healing, protection, and deliverance in Jesus' name.
Secondly, we pray for the government to release more funding to find cures for high blood pressure, strokes, and heart attacks, not just in one specific location, but throughout the United States. We ask God to give wisdom and direction to those in authority, that they may make decisions that benefit the health and well-being of all people. As it is written in Romans 13:1 WEB, "Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God." We pray that God will guide those in authority to prioritize this important issue in Jesus' name.
Lastly, we pray for better funding and laws to be passed to help autistic kids speak and function normally without speech delays. We ask God to touch the hearts of those in authority, that they may be compelled to act on behalf of these precious children. As it is written in Matthew 19:14 WEB, "But Jesus said, 'Allow the little children, and don't forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these.'" We pray that God will provide a way for these children to receive the help and support they need to thrive and reach their full potential in July and forevermore in Jesus' name.
In all these things, we pray that God's will be done and that He will be glorified. We thank you for bringing these requests before the Lord and for trusting in His power and goodness. We encourage you to continue to pray and believe, for the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous person accomplishes much. As it is written in James 5:16 WEB, "The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man accomplishes much."
Lastly, we praise God that these requests were made in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only by His name that we have access to the Father and it is by His name that we are saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, "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!" We encourage everyone to place their faith in Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins and for eternal life.
