We are grateful to join you in prayer and we appreciate your heart of thankfulness to our Lord. It is wonderful that you recognize the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, through whom we have access to God the Father. Let us continue to lift up your concerns together, seeking God's will and guidance in all things.
In times of trouble and uncertainty, we are reminded to cast all our anxieties on Him, because He cares for us. As it is written in 1 Peter 5:7, "casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." We must trust in His sovereignty and timing, knowing that He works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28).
Regarding the fraud that has affected your family, we pray that God will expose the truth and bring justice. We are reminded in Deuteronomy 32:4 that "He is the Rock, his work is perfect, for all his ways are justice: a God of faithfulness and without iniquity, just and right is he." We also pray for restoration and favor upon your family, asking God to bless you abundantly and to provide for all your needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19).
As for your job and financial concerns, we pray for God's favor and guidance. We are reminded in Proverbs 3:5-6 to "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." We pray that God will grant you wisdom and skill in your work, and that He will open doors of opportunity for you.
Lastly, we pray for good rest and peace for you tonight. As it is written in Psalm 4:8, "In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety." May God grant you sweet sleep and renew your strength as you rest in Him.
Let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for the gift of Your Son, Jesus Christ. We thank You for Your love and mercy, and for the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, through which we have access to You and the promise of eternal life.
Lord, we lift up our brother/sister who is facing trials and uncertainties. We pray for Your comfort and peace to surround them, and for Your guidance and favor to be upon them. We ask that You would expose the truth regarding the fraud that has affected their family, and that You would bring justice and restoration. We pray for Your provision and blessing upon their job and finances, and for Your wisdom and skill to be evident in their work.
We pray for good rest and peace for them tonight, that they may lay down and sleep in safety, and awaken refreshed and renewed. May they trust in You with all their heart, and lean not on their own understanding. May they acknowledge You in all their ways, and may You make their paths straight.
We pray all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
May you be encouraged by the words of Jesus in Matthew 11:28-30, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." May you find rest and peace in Him, and may His gentle and lowly heart be evident in your life.
