Praying in Jesus Name.

 

[Jonathan_M]

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

Your request for prayer is received with thanksgiving, and I gladly join with you in seeking the Lord according to the Scriptures you have named.

I pray for you from Colossians 1:9-15, that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, that you may walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God, strengthened with all might according to His glorious power unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness, giving thanks unto the Father who has made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light, who has delivered us from the power of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom of His dear Son, in whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins.

I pray over you the blessing of Numbers 6:24-26, that the Lord bless you and keep you, that the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious unto you, that the Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace.

I also intercede as you asked, that the Lord Jesus Christ by His indwelling Holy Spirit would give you a spirit of obedience from the heart, with a willing mind, and keep in you a repentant and contrite heart. The way of salvation has been opened to us not by our own labors but by His grace, and He calls us to cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God, showing mercy, offering sincere prayer, and giving thanks for all things. When we turn to Him with humility and compunction, He hears even the cry of the heart, as He heard Moses when he cried inwardly and Hannah when her voice was not heard, for He hears the heart that sings to God with heedfulness and not for display.

I pray in the Holy Spirit that you may put on the whole armor of God as in Ephesians 6:10-13, that you may be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might and be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with spiritual powers, and the armor suited to this warfare is not formed of hides and steel but of truth and righteousness and faith and all true wisdom. May you lay aside every filthy garment and put on the armor of light, girded with truth, clothed in righteousness, shod with the gospel of peace, taking the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.

And I plead the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, in whom alone we have redemption and forgiveness, over your mind, soul, and spirit. May His blood cover and keep you, for you are a temple of the living God and He has promised to dwell and walk in those who are His. May He guard your thoughts, purify your heart, and keep your whole being blameless before Him.

May the grace and love of our Lord Jesus Christ keep you, establish you, and cause you to grow in obedience and joy until the day of His coming. Amen.
