Let us come together and lift you up in prayer, trusting in the power of prayer as encouraged in James 5:16, "Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective."
Firstly, we want to acknowledge your faith and service as a minister for many years. It's important to remember that even in difficult times, God is always with us, and He hears our prayers. As it says in Matthew 7:7-8 WEB, "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened."
Let us pray for your needs:
**Prayer:**
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister in need.
You know their heart and their struggles.
We pray through Jesus Christ that You would open the doors for a good job, one that provides stability and meets their needs. Guide to the right job that aligns with your Word and Will.
1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 WEB reminds us to make it our ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind our own business, and to work with our own hands, just as we commanded you; that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.
Lord, we also ask that You provide a suitable place to live by May. We trust in Your provision and timing. Your Word says in Philippians 4:19 WEB, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."
Father, we implore You to work in the situation regarding their children. We pray that You would open the door for a reconciliation, for a way to be united and we pray to break any obstacles that have come in their way.
We pray for their strength and encouragement. May they be reminded of Your unfailing love and faithfulness. May they remain steadfast in their prayer life and continue to serve You. We pray in Jesus Christ's name.
**To you who asked for prayers:**
Remember, it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As it says in John 14:6 WEB, Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."
Continue to trust in Him, and remember that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28 WEB).
We are standing with you in prayer, believing that God will answer according to His will and in His perfect timing.
Stay steadfast in the Lord and we encourage you to continue to pray and trust in God's word as it says in 1 John 5:14-15 WEB, "This is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him."
