Prayers please

We come before the Lord with hearts full of gratitude that you’ve entrusted these unspoken requests to us, for He knows each one intimately before a word is even formed on our lips. The Scriptures remind us in **Matthew 6:8**, *"Don’t be like them, for your Father knows what things you need before you ask him."* How comforting it is to know that our Heavenly Father is already at work in these matters, even as we lift them before Him!
Yet, we are also called to bring our burdens to Him in prayer, casting all our cares upon Him because He cares for us (**1 Peter 5:7**). While we don’t know the specifics of these five requests, we can pray with confidence that God’s will—His perfect, pleasing, and good will (**Romans 12:2**)—will prevail in each situation. Whether these requests involve struggles, decisions, relationships, health, or spiritual battles, we stand on the promise that *"all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose"* (**Romans 8:28**).
However, we must gently but firmly address something vital: you did not invoke the name of Jesus in your request. This is not a small matter, for Scripture is unequivocal that *"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 Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father (**John 14:6**), and it is in His name alone that we are commanded to pray (**John 16:23-24**). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so today. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you *will* be saved (**Romans 10:9**). Without faith in Christ, our prayers are empty, for it is His righteousness that makes us acceptable before God.
Assuming you are a believer, let us now lift these unspoken requests to the throne of grace, trusting that the Holy Spirit will intercede with groans too deep for words (**Romans 8:26**):

**Heavenly Father,**
We come before You in the mighty and holy name of Jesus, lifting up these five unspoken requests to Your throne. You are the God who sees all, knows all, and holds all things in Your sovereign hands. Nothing is hidden from Your sight, and no concern is too small or too great for Your attention. Lord, we ask that You would move in each of these situations according to Your perfect will. Where there is brokenness, bring healing. Where there is confusion, bring clarity. Where there is sin, bring conviction and repentance. Where there is fear, bring faith. Where there is doubt, bring trust in Your unfailing promises.
Father, if any of these requests involve relationships, we pray they would be aligned with Your Word. If there is courtship outside of Your design—whether through premarital intimacy, unequally yoked partnerships, or any form of sexual immorality—we rebuke it in Jesus’ name and ask for Your conviction to lead to repentance. May every relationship honor You, with marriage as the godly goal between a man and a woman who are both committed to You. If there is loneliness, comfort them with Your presence and guide them to godly community.
If these requests involve health, we ask for Your healing touch, remembering that You are Jehovah-Rapha, the Lord who heals. Yet, even if healing tarries, may Your grace be sufficient, and Your strength be made perfect in weakness (**2 Corinthians 12:9**). If they involve financial struggles, provide for every need according to Your riches in glory (**Philippians 4:19**), and teach us all to trust in You rather than in uncertain riches. If they involve spiritual battles, clothe Your servant in the full armor of God (**Ephesians 6:10-18**) and remind them that the victory is already won through Christ.
Lord, we also pray for the one who submitted these requests. If there is any unconfessed sin, any area of their life not surrendered to You, we ask that Your Holy Spirit would convict them and draw them closer to You. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (**Philippians 4:7**) and remind them that You are their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (**Psalm 46:1**).
We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (**Isaiah 54:17**), and that You, Lord, will complete the good work You have begun in them (**Philippians 1:6**). May they walk in obedience, faith, and victory, knowing that You are for them and not against them.
We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of **Jesus Christ**, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. **Amen.**

Beloved, we encourage you to continue bringing these requests before the Lord daily. Write them down, pray over them, and watch expectantly for how He will move. Keep a record of His faithfulness, for it will strengthen your faith in the days ahead. And remember, *"The prayer of a righteous person is very powerful in its effect"* (**James 5:16**). Stay rooted in His Word, surround yourself with godly counsel, and trust that He who began this work in you will be faithful to complete it.
If any of these requests involve areas where you are struggling with sin or temptation, we urge you to seek accountability within your church body. You are not meant to walk this path alone. And if you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus Christ, we implore you to do so today—there is no greater decision you could ever make. *"Now is the acceptable time. Behold, now is the day of salvation"* (**2 Corinthians 6:2**).

We join you today, dear friend, in lifting these five unspoken requests to our Heavenly Father. We trust that He already knows and is at work in each of these situations, as Psalm 139:2 tells us, "You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar." Let's approach His throne with confidence, knowing that Jesus has made a way for us to come boldly before Him (Hebrews 4:16).
We pray that in each of these requests, God's perfect will would be done. Where there's uncertainty, we ask for clarity. Where there's anxiety, we ask for peace. Where there's weakness, we ask for strength. Where there's sin, we ask for conviction and repentance. We trust that all things are working together for good for those who love Him (Romans 8:28).
We also want to encourage you to keep seeking God's face in these matters. Spend time in His Word, and listen for His voice. He promises, "You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart" (Jeremiah 29:13).
