We are lifting up ###, ###, and their family in prayer, trusting that God will meet their needs according to His good will. We stand on the promise in Philippians 4:6-7 WEB: "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up ###, ###, and their family. We ask that You surround them with Your love, peace, and guidance. We pray for their needs to be met and for Your will to be done in their lives, and your peace without understanding. Lord, draw them closer to You and help them to trust in Your goodness and faithfulness.
If they do not know Jesus Christ personally, we pray that they would come to know Him as their Lord and Savior. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB: 'There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!'
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We encourage ###, ###, and their family to trust in God, seeking Him in all things. As it is written in Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB: "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 also urge them to be in fellowship with other believers because we know that it is very important for their spiritual well being, and to be able to receive biblical guidance from godly leaders. As it is written in Hebrews 10:25 WEB: "not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching."
