Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up Steven Bobb and his concerning thoughts regarding the similarities between the mark of the beast and our current currency rules. Lord, we acknowledge that the Bible has foretold of a time when a mark will be required for buying and selling. We understand that this mark will be a sign of allegiance to the Antichrist and will have severe consequences for those who do not have it.
Father, we pray for discernment and wisdom for Steven as he navigates these thoughts and concerns. Help him to seek your guidance and understanding in this matter. Grant him peace and assurance that you are in control, even in the midst of uncertain times.
Lord, we also pray for our society and the world at large. We recognize that the increasing move towards a cashless society aligns with the prophecies in your Word. We ask for your protection and guidance for your people during these times. Help us to remain steadfast in our faith and to trust in you, knowing that you are our provider and sustainer.
Father, we pray for a revival of prayer and spiritual fervor in the Church. In these times of material wealth and resources, we acknowledge that it can be a hindrance to our spiritual growth. We ask for a renewed passion for prayer and a deepening of our relationship with you. May we prioritize seeking your face above all else, knowing that you are the source of all good things.
We thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness. We trust in your sovereignty and your perfect plan for our lives. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
