We join with you in prayer concerning ### who is now with the Lord and we understand your desire for prayer to our Father in Heaven and yes we gladly pray with you.

We take comfort in knowing that for those who are in Christ to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 5:8 we are of good courage, I say, and are willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be at home with the Lord. And in Revelation 21:4 He will wipe away from them every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more. The first things have passed away. If ### knew Jesus as Lord and Savior we can rejoice that ### is at home with Him, free from pain and sorrow. If there is grief in your heart for those left behind, we pray for God's comfort to surround you.

We also hear your heart for our Father in Heaven. We want to gently remind you that we have access to the Father only through Jesus Christ His Son. Jesus said in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And in Acts 4:12 There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. It is only by calling on the name of Jesus that we are saved and that our prayers are heard. If you have not yet put your trust in Jesus, we encourage you to believe that He died for your sins and rose again, and to confess Him as Lord, for Romans 10:9 says that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. And Romans 6:23 reminds us For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Our Father in Heaven cares deeply for His children. He is described in Psalm 68:5 as A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in his holy habitation. And in Romans 8:15 you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, Abba Father.

We pray together with you now.

Father in Heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ Your Son. We thank You that You are our Father and that You hear us when we pray through Jesus. We lift up ### to You and thank You for the hope we have that to be with You is to be at home and at peace. We ask that You comfort all who mourn and who feel the loss, that You would pour out Your peace which surpasses all understanding upon them. We pray that You would draw each of us closer to Yourself, that we would walk faithfully with Jesus all our days so that we may have assurance of eternal life with You. Help us to trust You as our Abba Father, to seek Your will, and to rest in Your love and care. Strengthen our faith, heal our hearts, and remind us daily of Your promises. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior we pray, amen.
 
Thank you for sharing this with us. We hear how much ### means to you and we hear your tender question about your father in heaven. Wanting to know your loved ones are with the Lord comes from deep love, and we are honored to pray with you in that love.

Losing someone close shakes so much, and grief does not look the same for any two people. Some days may feel heavy with sadness, other days may bring quiet moments of peace or remembrance, and all of that can be a natural part of how our hearts work through loss. Be gentle with yourself as you move through these days.

One small step that often helps is to give your grief a little space with another person. This week consider sharing one memory of ### or your father with a trusted pastor, family member or friend who will simply listen. You do not have to have the right words, just someone to sit with you in it.

Father in heaven, we thank You for Your nearness to those who mourn. We lift up our friend and the love they carry for ### and for their father. Surround them with Your comfort, bring rest to their heart and help them sense Your presence day by day. Guide them in Your will and keep them close to Jesus. In Jesus name we pray, amen.
 
We have heard your cry, ###, that you may be with the Lord and walk near to Him, and that your father who is now in Heaven, as you say, may be remembered before God. We have carried this request to the throne of grace and we would point you to the character of Him to whom you pray.

The God to whom we pray is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation. He is not a distant deity, but He that has highly exalted His Son Jesus, to whom He stands in a double sense in the relation of a Father, and has prepared a throne in glory for all who are in Christ. It is through the Son alone that we draw near to the Father, for our Lord has said, He that has seen Me has seen the Father, and the Father Himself loves you. There is no other way of salvation, for we are accepted only in the Beloved, and for Christ's sake and because we are a part of Him we are approved of the Father.

He is also specially revealed as a Father of the fatherless, and a Judge of the widows, is God in His holy habitation. In Him the fatherless finds mercy. If there be a sense of orphanhood or loss in your heart, there is bread enough and to spare in your Father's house. Why should you perish with hunger while you may arise and go to your Father. Come to Him and look up into the face of the orphan's Father and plead that word, In You the fatherless finds mercy. And know that He hears even wordless prayers, the speech of sorrow, the opening up of the brokenness of the heart, for the promise stands, I the Lord will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.

If you would truly call Him Our Father which are in Heaven, you must know Him as the righteous Father through faith in His Son. No man calls Him Father in spirit and in truth till first he possesses a living faith and some kindling of divine love wrought by the Spirit. The true believer is made meet for the inheritance of the saints in light, not by any merit of his own, but by the Father's grace in Christ. The blessings laid up in reserve for those who love God are secured to them in the covenant made with Christ.

Therefore we pray for you, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, that you may be kept within the arms of the Well Beloved, living in the very heart of Christ. May you increase in the knowledge of the Father and of His Son Jesus Christ through the revelation of the Divine Spirit, and so increase in fellowship with the Father and with His Son. And concerning your father, we commend him to the righteous judgment and infinite mercy of God, who does all things well, praying that you may find comfort in the unutterable goodness of the Lord God of Heaven and earth to His chosen in the person of His dear Son, and that you may rest in the assurance that the Father Himself loves those who are in Christ Jesus.

May the Lord grant you to know that you are accepted in the Beloved, and to live in the spirit of sonship, reverencing the Father of your spirit, and rejoicing that His love to you is in all respects equal to His love to the Son. Blessed, forever blessed, be the Lord God of Heaven and earth, for His mercy endures forever.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God is so in love with you. Be Encouraged!
