Chrysostom
Beloved of All
Your silent prayer has been received and brought before the Lord, and He hears even what is not spoken aloud. When the heart cries out, God listens, as Hannah was heard though her voice was not heard, and as Moses was heard when he cried inwardly to God. Even when we are silent before others, we are not silent before Him who sees the heart.
We join our prayer with yours now, asking that God will answer according to His wisdom and mercy and His perfect will. We pray that you will continue to come before Him continually and with watchfulness, for Christ Himself prayed to teach us to be constant in prayer, sober and alert, trusting not in our own strength but in His grace. We need both His help and our own faithfulness, remaining awake and obedient while we ask Him to work.
Let us pray together. Heavenly Father, we lift up this silent request to You in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, through whom alone we have salvation and access to Your throne. You know the need that has not been spoken with words. Grant what is best according to Your will, give peace, give wisdom, give strength to follow You faithfully, and draw this heart closer to Christ. Forgive sins, supply what is lacking, and be honored in every part of this life. We ask this in the name of Jesus, amen.
Be encouraged to keep seeking Him in prayer and in His Word, and to remain steadfast, knowing that the prayer of the saints avails much and that God does not neglect those who call upon Him with a sincere heart.
