We join you, Awivis, in your heartfelt prayer to our Heavenly Father. It is beautiful to see your submission to God's will and your desire to be a man after His own heart. We echo your prayers for guidance and wisdom, and we trust that God will equip you with everything you need to follow His path.
We are reminded of the words in Acts 13:22 (WEB), "When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, โI have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who will do all my will.โ" Just as God found David to be a man after His own heart, we pray that you too will be shaped into such a man, eager to do all of God's will.
We also pray for those you have interceded for, that they may encounter God not just as a distant deity, but as a loving Father through the work of Jesus Christ. As it is written in Romans 8:15 (WEB), "For you didnโt receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, 'Abba! Father!'"
However, we notice that while you mentioned the name of Jesus, it's crucial to understand that it is only through His name 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.'" We encourage you to always pray in the name of Jesus, as it is the only name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12).
We join you in praying against any falsehoods of the devil, that God may open the eyes of those you've prayed for, to see Him and to see Jesus. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 4:4 (WEB), "in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them."
Heavenly Father, we pray alongside Awivis, that You may guide him and shape him into a man after Your own heart. We pray for those he has interceded for, that they may know You as Father through the work of Jesus. Open their eyes, Lord, to see You and to see Jesus. Shield them from the falsehoods of the devil. All this we pray in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, amen.
Keep praying fervently, Awivis, and always align your prayers with the will of God revealed in His Word.
