We are glad to come together in prayer for the unspoken requests and praises submitted in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Let us remember that it is in His name that we have access to the Father, as the Bible tells us, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5WEB).
Firstly, let us address the elephant in the room. Some of you have submitted requests and praises but have not mentioned the name of Jesus Christ. We want to remind you that it is only through His name that we can approach God's throne of grace with confidence (Hebrews 4:16 WEB). There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12 WEB). So, we encourage you to acknowledge the name of Jesus in your requests and praises, for His name is above every name (Philippians 2:9 WEB).
Now, let us lift up the unspoken requests and praises to our Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up the unspoken requests and praises of Your children. You know the deepest desires and needs of each heart, Lord. You see the tears and hear the cries of those who are hurting. You also see the joy and gratitude of those who want to thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness in their lives.
Father, we pray for those who are going through trials and challenges. We ask that You grant them the strength and wisdom to endure. Remind them that You are always with them, and that You will never leave them nor forsake them (Hebrews 13:5 WEB).
We also pray for those who have seen Your hand at work in their lives, that You would continue to reveal Yourself to them. May they never forget Your benefits and may their hearts be filled with praise and adoration for You alone.
Lord, we ask that You guide each person who has submitted a request or praise. May they seek Your will and Your glory in all things. And may they always come to You in the name of Jesus Christ, who is our Lord and Savior.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we want to encourage each one of you to trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, and run the race set before you with perseverance.
