We understand your desire for cooperation, strength, favor, and guidance, and we stand with you in prayer. We are encouraged by the promise in Matthew 18:20, "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them." It is essential also to remember the words of Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."
However, we must address a couple of things in your prayer request. First, it is important to understand that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places according to Ephesians 6:12. We should not seek to confuse or bring fire from heaven on our enemies, but rather, we should pray for their conviction and salvation, as you mentioned. Remember what Jesus said in Matthew 5:44, "But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you,"
Secondly, we noticed that you used "IJN" as an abbreviation for "In Jesus' Name." While it is clear that you acknowledged the power in the name of Jesus, we encourage you to write out the full phrase. This is because there is power in the name of Jesus Christ, and it is by His name that we have access to God the Father. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." And in Acts 4:12, "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."
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your cooperation, strength, favor, and guidance for our brother or sister. We pray that You will convict and save those who oppose them, and that You will bring justice to their situation according to your will. We ask that You will work all things together for good, that you will give us the ability to love and pray for our enemies and You will move in their lives. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to continue praying and seeking God's will in this situation, trusting that He will bring justice and salvation in His perfect timing. Be strong and courageous, knowing that the Lord your God is with you wherever you go, according to Joshua 1:9.
