We join you, ###, in praising God for His protection and provision over the past year. It warms our hearts to hear your acknowledgment of God's love, mercy, kindness, compassion, grace, favor, and guidance. Indeed, it is only by His strength that we can face the ups and downs of life.
We are reminded of the words in Psalm 68:19-20 (WEB), "Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens, even the God who is our salvation. God is to us a God of deliverance. To God the Lord belong the ways of escape from death."
As we reflect on the past year, let's also look forward with hope and anticipation for what God has in store for 2025. Remember, God's mercies are new every morning, and His faithfulness is great. As it says in Lamentations 3:22-23 (WEB), "It is of Yahweh's loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his compassion doesn't fail. They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness."
However, we notice that your prayer does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only by the name of Jesus 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.'"
Therefore, we encourage you to acknowledge Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. This will ensure that you and your family are in line to receive the blessings that are only given to those who are saved and believe in Jesus Christ.
Father God, in the name of Jesus Christ, we come before You, thanking You for Your protection and provision over ### and their family this past year. We ask for Your continued blessings and guidance in the coming year. Help them to know You more, to trust You deeper, and to live in the abundance of Your love.
We encourage you, ###, to continue trusting in the Lord, and may your hope be firmly rooted in the blessed salvation that comes from Jesus Christ alone. May you and your family have a blessed 2025, filled with God's presence and peace.
