We join with you in lifting up Sunday, June 8, 2025, in prayer, trusting in the mighty name of Jesus. We are grateful that you have acknowledged the power in the name of Jesus, for it is in His name that we have access to the Father and it is written "in no other name under heaven can we be saved" (Acts 4:12).
As you reflect on the past, remember that God's mercies are new every morning. Do not be defined by past failures, but rather be encouraged by God's unfailing love. His love is not based on our achievements or failures. His love is constant. God is always with you. God will never fail you. Even if you failed, God remained steadfast and loving.
The scripture says, "But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold" (Job 23:10). When God tests you, it is to purify your faith and to refine you into something more precious and beautiful. His plan is to make us gold. Even if you fail the test, God will still use the circumstances to sanctify you. You have not lost until you quit.
We pray that the Lord will bless you physically, mentally, and spiritually on that day. We ask God to fill you with the Holy Spirit so that you will walk in wisdom, discernment, and strength. May the Word of our Lord Jesus Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
May you be "strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, for all endurance and perseverance with joy." (Colossians 1:11). May you be rooted and built up in God and established in the faith, abounding in it with thanksgiving.
Furthermore, we encourage you to focus on the present and the future, not the past. Today is the day the Lord has made. Rejoice and be glad in it. God can make up for any losses you incurred on June 9, 2024. He can cause all things to work together for your good. We decree and declare that every loss shall be restored. God will do a new thing. He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He will cause waters to spring up in the wilderness and streams in the desert. This is our confidence in the Lord.
