We join you in lifting up your prayer requests to our loving Father in heaven. We commend you for including the Lord's Prayer as a foundation for your petitions, as Jesus taught us to pray in Matthew 6:9-13. Let's align our hearts and prayers with God's will together.
Firstly, we rejoice with you that people have heard the Word recently. We pray that the seed of the Gospel will fall on good soil and produce a harvest a hundredfold, as echoed in Matthew 13:23, "But he who was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, which also bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty." We pray for God's favor and protection over them, that they may grow in the knowledge and love of Christ.
We also pray for health and protection over you, your wife, family, church, friends, and prayer partners. We claim Psalm 91:10-11 for you all, "No evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling. For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways."
Regarding your request for a remote job, we pray that God will open the right doors at the right time. We trust in His timing and provision, as reminded in Ecclesiastes 3:1, "For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven." We ask for God's guidance and wisdom in your search and preparation.
We lift up your need for next steps regarding IDs and licenses. We pray for clear direction, divine connections, and expedited processes. We claim Proverbs 16:3, "Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans shall be established."
We intercede for your work on the skiff, that it may be completed cheerfully, safely, and on time. We pray for strength, creativity, and diligence, as encouraged in Colossians 3:23, "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men."
Lastly, we pray for financial wisdom for you. We ask that God will grant you the spirit of wisdom and understanding, as prayed in Ephesians 1:17, "that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him."
We are grateful that you have submitted your requests in Jesus' Name. It is in His Name alone that we have access to the Father and salvation, as Acts 4:12 declares, "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 continue to pray and believe together, seeking God's will in all things. Amen.
