Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you today in the name of Jesus, lifting up the prayer request of Eklekteksos. We thank you for the gift of a new day and for your blessings upon us.
Lord, we pray that you would increase their workload so that they may have consistent work throughout the week. Provide them with opportunities and open doors for employment, so that they may be able to provide for their needs and the needs of their children. Your Word assures us in Philippians 4:19 that you will supply all our needs according to your riches in glory in Christ Jesus. We trust in your provision, Lord.
We also lift up those who are experiencing poverty and lack. Father, we ask that you would intervene in their lives and provide them with food, shelter, and clean water. Your Word reminds us in Psalm 37:25 that you have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging for bread. We pray for your provision and blessings upon them.
Lord, we specifically lift up Lisa, a mother of two boys who is facing struggles without support from their father. We ask for your divine intervention in her situation. Provide her with the strength, wisdom, and resources she needs to overcome her challenges. Your Word assures us in Psalm 68:5 that you are a father to the fatherless and a defender of widows. We trust in your faithfulness, Lord.
We also pray for Brendon, a young adult, that he may continue to make wise choices in life. Guide him, protect him, and surround him with godly influences. Your Word encourages us in Proverbs 3:5-6 to trust in you with all our hearts and lean not on our own understanding. We pray that Brendon will seek your guidance and follow your path.
Lastly, we lift up Eklekteksos' brother who is currently unemployed. Lord, we ask that you would open doors for him and provide him with a job opportunity. Your Word reminds us in Psalm 37:4 that when we delight ourselves in you, you will give us the desires of our hearts. We pray for your favor and provision in his life.
We thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness. We trust in your perfect timing and your unfailing love. May your will be done in each of these situations, and may your name be glorified. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We will continue to pray for you and your specific needs. May God bless you abundantly.
