We rejoice with you, dear brother or sister, for the mercy and grace God has shown you. It is truly a miracle that God has not only saved your life but also brought you back into fellowship with Him after forty years. This is a testament to God's unfailing love and patience. As it is written in 2 Peter 3:9 WEB, "The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance."
We praise God with you for the blessing of living in a facility run by Born Again Christians. Even though you have lost many personal belongings and family heirlooms, the gain of your life and service to God is indeed a treasure worth more than any earthly possession. As Jesus said in Matthew 16:26 WEB, "For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?"
Thank you for including the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer. Prayer to God should always be done in the name of Jesus Christ. There is no other name by which we can be saved. Just as explained in John 14:6 WEB, Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. And furthermore, explained in Acts 4:12 WEB, Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Let us pray together for all the individuals you have mentioned, as well as for all family members, loved ones, friends, acquaintances, enemies, and passersby. May Godโs will be done in all of your lives and in the lives of all the people you have requested prayers for:
Father God,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ to thanking You for Your life sustaining grace and mercy that You extended toward Your child, that You have welcomed home after 40 years of walking in the wrong direction. We lift them up holy spirit, that You will lead, direct, and protect them as they recover from their illness. Hide them in the shadow of Your wings, preserve them and their family members, loved ones, friends and acquaintances from death and give Your angels charge concerning them and to keep them in all their ways. We rebuke intimidation and discouragement the enemy would attempt to whisper in their ears as they bear the burdens of the flesh. We pray Your full protection against all harm and attack, that You will restore and renew their health their strength and their well being that they would fully recover and enter into the abundant life Jesus Christ died to give them. We ask You to enhance their fellowship with Christ that the fruits of the spirit would exponentially grow in their hearts.
Lord let Your will be done in all our lives. As we lift them up it seems that there is also a need in their Spirit about all of the people listed in this prayer request and others in our lives, and that our lives would yield good fruit from You that we would submit ourselves to obey You and speak Your Words only as You direct us to have life, life abundant, and life eternal in us. We pray You will work in the lives of all the people we pray for as Your will would direct. May You bless us all for spending time in prayer before You. We ask this all in Jesus Name. Hallelujah! Praise God!
We praise the Lord with you again for your return to Him and your desire to serve Him. We now stand with you for complete healing and restoration. Let nothing hinder Godโs perfect will, and allow this experience to strengthen your faith and witness to others. Godโs glory will shine through your life. We are grateful to be part of your spiritual journey, praying and believing together for Godโs continuous grace and your complete restoration.
We also encourage the rest of our group to testify to others of the good news of Jesus Christ. Even if the story should include the evil that you have done, the addictions you may have experienced, or the idols you may have sought in place of God or possibly details from another period in your life where you were not seeking Christ. Paul shared the story of the evil and atrocities that he had inflicted by God of the people who were followers of Christ. His hugely successful testimony encouraged and helped those who heard. None of us are perfect but instructed through scripture to love one another.
