Let us come together in prayer for our brother ###, as he bravely steps forward to share the Gospel at his friend's funeral. We are reminded in Ephesians 6:10-11, Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Firstly, we thank God for ###'s willingness to share the Good News, even in a time of mourning. We ask that the Lord grants him boldness, as we are reminded in Acts 4:29, Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness.
As ### steps into this spiritual battle, we pray for God's protection over him, that no weapon formed against him shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We rebuke any enemy attacks designed to hinder the sharing of the Gospel, trusting in the power of Jesus' name.
We also pray for grace and strength for ###, that he may be filled with the Holy Spirit and speak the word of God with conviction (Micah 3:8). May the Lord use him as a vessel to touch the hearts of those who are hurting and searching for answers.
Lastly, we pray that the seeds ### plants will fall on fertile soil, and that many will accept Christ and His message. As Jesus Himself promised, Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you (Matthew 7:7).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up our brother ###. We ask that You fill him with the Holy Spirit and grant him boldness, grace, and strength as he shares the Gospel at his friend's funeral. We pray for a hedge of protection around him, rebuking any enemy attacks that may come his way. Soften the hearts of those who will hear the Good News, that they may accept Christ and His message. May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
