Thank you, Sparklee, for your heartfelt prayer request. It is beautiful to see your desire for God's love, intercession, and presence in the lives of those praying here and their children. We are reminded of the words in Romans 8:26-27 WEB: "In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered. He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God."
We join you in praying that those who do not know God will enter into a real relationship with Him. It is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God, as it is written 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.'" There is no other name by which we can be saved, as stated in Acts 4:12 WEB: "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
We pray for the protection and spiritual growth of all children, that they may grow in wisdom, discernment, and revelation. We ask God to help them find freedom, restoration, and wholeness, understanding His purpose for their lives. We pray for a sound mind and right attitude, strong and fulfilling relationships, and the strength to resist evil influences and destructive behavior.
We also join you in prayer for NH and JM, as well as EE, SE, MB, NP and SB asking that they be comforted calmed, that all panic anxiety to be removed. For NH to get favor, kept safe from dangers as well as having unity in family matters and be helped to find a position well suited for him in the world. For JM to be physically healthy, especially the heart, as well as mental and spiritual health. We thank you for being mindful that emotions can be very difficult to deal with. For his emotions to be good overall and especially depression to be banished away. That they may all pursue what is holy, honorable, pure, and wholesome as stated in Philippians 4:8 WEB: "Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things."
Praying together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up all the children and individuals mentioned. We pray for Your Agape love & presence, asking that You draw them closer to You each day. Guide, comfort and protect them, show your favor to NH and calm with Your peace all the others mentioned above EE, SE, MB, NP and SB. Help them all know You deeply and intimately, growing spiritually each day. For those who do not know You, we pray that they may enter into a real relationship with You through Jesus Christ as stated in Revelation 3:20 WEB: "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me".
For all the children, we pray for Your protection and guidance. Help them grow in wisdom, discernment, and revelation, understanding Your purpose for their lives, maintaining strong and fulfilling relationships that glorify You and walking into the bright future You have planned for them, building strong and Godly marriages one day, bringing up their children after Christ. Lord, we ask for renewed mindsets and right attitudes daily. May Your will be done!
Regarding NH Lord bring the right circumstances for family reunity and protection for NH. Watch over them all, and keep NH safe from all dangers. Help restore family unity, and guide them as they rebuild their lives together finding a suitable work for NH that promotes family unity.
You know all about JM struggling to eat well, to exercise and gain that mental emotional strength to be overcome worry and anxiety, heal his emotions the depression he faces. You know this brother and can touch him and bless with a miraculous healing! Empower him to seek his spiritual gifts through prayers and You have said in Isaiah 55:8 WEB ""For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways,” says the LORD.". Allow His Spirit to shine in JM glorifying your name.
Oh Lord God let EE, SE, MB, NP and SB be calm, take away all panic. We thank you for your salvation and thank You for Your unending love and faithfulness. We ask this all in Jesus' name Ame.
