We join you in your heartfelt prayer, lifting up your family's needs before the throne of grace. We thank you for your faith in Jesus name.
Firstly, we acknowledge your faith in God's provision and His mercy. We are reminded of His promises in Matthew 7:7-8 WEB: "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened." Also, Psalm 37:25 WEB: "I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread."
However, we must also remember that our requests should be made in the name of Jesus, as He Himself taught us in John 14:13-14 WEB: "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Also, there is no other name by which we can be saved, Acts 4:12. We must believe in the Lord Jesus Christ (John 3:16). Therefore, we pray that you and your family continue to put your trust in Him and make your requests known to God in Jesus' name.
We rebuke the spirit of poverty that is attempting to rise up against your family. Remember God's promise in 2 Corinthians 8:9 WEB: "For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich." We pray that God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19 WEB).
We pray for your family's needs: for food, clothing, school fees, and the repair of your gate. We ask God to provide a new phone and a job for you, and to grant you the wisdom and knowledge needed to graduate with a first class degree. We also pray for your sister's needs as she prepares for her service.
Lastly, we encourage you to be anxious for nothing. Do not worry about your needs. 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."
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, we come before You, lifting up our brother/sister and their family. Lord, we ask for Your mercy and grace to be upon them. We rebuke the spirit of poverty and ask that You provide for all their needs according to Your riches in glory. We pray for their daily bread, for their school fees, for their gate to be repaired, for a new phone, and for a job. We also pray for wisdom and knowledge for our dear brother/sister to excel in their studies and graduate with a first class degree and for their sister's needs. We thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and Your love. We ask all these things in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
