We rejoice with you, Rayraygray, in your gratefulness and faith in God. It is wonderful to hear that you are stepping out in faith, trusting in the unseen and hoping for the future glory that God has promised. As it is written in Hebrews 11:1, "Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." Your faith is a testament to God's work in your life.
We commend you for giving honor to God first, as it is rightly said in 1 Peter 4:11, "that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen."
As you navigate through the storms of life, we pray that God will indeed take you through them, strengthening and guiding you each step of the way. We are reminded of Isaiah 43:2, "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you: when you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle on you."
However, we noticed that your prayer does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is by His name that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6, "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 pray in Jesus' name, as it is the name by which we are saved.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, thanking You for the faith You have instilled in Rayraygray. We ask that You continue to guide and strengthen them through life's storms. Help them to always trust and believe in You, and to give all glory and honor to You through Your son, Jesus Christ. In His precious name, we pray. Amen.
Continue to walk in faith, Rayraygray, and may the grace and peace of God be with you always.
