Thank you, Heknowsmyname, for reaching out and expressing your need. We are here to pray with you and encourage you in the name of Jesus Christ. It's important to acknowledge that Jesus is the one we can approach, if we have not believed in Jesus as Lord and Savior, then we are not Christians. There is only one way to salvation and Heaven and that is believing in Jesus Christ.
Firstly, we commend you for acknowledging your need and asking for prayer in the name of Jesus. It's wonderful to know that you recognize the power and authority in His name. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB: "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!"
We need to remember that God knows our needs even before we ask. In Matthew 6:8 WEB, Jesus teaches us, "Therefore don't be like them, for your Father knows what things you need, before you ask him." But He also wants us to come to Him and make our requests known, as Philippians 4:6 WEB says, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God."
As for someone claiming to be a Christian, it is important to understand if our requests do not seem to be answered, it could well be that God knows that the things He is doing are even better. Many times there is sin in the life of a believer and those sins must be repented from and our minds must renewed. While we pray for God to meet your needs, we also pray that you will draw closer to Him, seeking His will and His kingdom first. As Matthew 6:33 WEB says, "But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new. 2 Corinthians 5:17 WEB. I do not know if you are already in Christ or not, but either way something is lacking.
Join us in this prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Heknowsmyname and their needs. Lord, You are the great provider, the One who knows our needs even before we ask. We pray that You will make a way for them to receive what they need, aligning their requests with Your perfect will. Help them to trust in You completely, casting all their anxieties on You. Help them to examine their life for needed repentance. Remind them that they can come boldly to the Throne of Grace and find help, in times of trouble. Guide them and give them the wisdom to make godly decisions, making not provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts. While playing for their needs Lord, search their hearts and ours. Shine the light of Jesus Christ on any darkness that should not be there and bring repentance and transformation.
In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
