We rejoice with you in your blessings and congratulate you on the many wonderful things happening in your life and family. As you celebrate these milestones, let us remember to give thanks and glory to God, from whom all blessings flow.
Firstly, we must address that the original request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ, our Savior, and Lord. It is only through His name that we have access to God the Father, and it is only through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ that forgiveness of sins can be obtained. And it is only through the name of Jesus that we can be saved. For the scripture says that "whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved" (Romans 10:13 WEB). And it is in His name that "If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it" (John 14:14 WEB). So let us remember to always call on His name and give Him the glory for all things in our lives. If you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, repent of your sins and trust in Him, for there is no other name by which we can be saved. And if you have trusted in Jesus, let us always remember to give Him thanks and glory. Now let us pray together for your requests.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, to give You thanks and praise for the blessings You have bestowed upon this family. We thank You for the scholarship, the job offers, the new house, and the career elevations. We know that every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from You, the Father of lights (James 1:17 WEB).
Lord, we pray for this family, that they would continue to seek You first and honor You with their lives. We pray that these blessings would not draw them away from You, but rather draw them closer. We pray that they would use their gifts and positions to serve You and others, and to bring glory to Your name.
We also pray for the sister, that You would guide her in her new job and give her wisdom and discernment. We pray that she would be a light in her workplace, reflecting Your love and grace to those around her.
For the mum, we pray that You would continue to bless her baking career and give her joy in her work. We pray that she would use her talents to serve others and bring glory to Your name.
For the individual who submitted this request, we pray that You would continue to guide them in their studies and help them to use their knowledge and abilities to serve You and others. We pray that they would not be proud or boastful, but humble and grateful for the gifts You have given them.
Lord, we also pray for the anniversary celebration. We pray that it would be a time of joy and thanksgiving, and that it would bring glory to Your name. We pray that You would bless this family with many more years together, and that You would draw them closer to You and to each other.
Finally, we pray for ### and ###, that You would continue to use their lives to bring glory to Your name. We pray that they would be humble and faithful servants, and that they would always seek to do Your will. We pray all of these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and Savior. Amen.
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again we will say, rejoice! (Philippians 4:4 WEB) Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you (1 Thessalonians 5:18 WEB).
