Let us come before the throne of grace with confidence and pray for Gus, Von, and Rose, trusting in the power of Jesus' name for forgiveness, healing, and peace."For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,""For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (1 Timothy 2:5, Romans 6:23 WEB).
Firstly, we pray for forgiveness. We acknowledge that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). Therefore, we confess any sins that Gus, Von, and Rose may have committed, known or unknown, and ask for forgiveness in Jesus' name."If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9 WEB).
Lord, we ask for your healing touch upon Gus, Von, and Rose. We pray that You will restore them physically, emotionally, and spiritually."But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5 WEB).
We also petition You, Lord, for peace that surpasses all understanding to guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). We pray that they will be anxiety free and trust in Your goodness and sovereignty."Do not be anxious about anything; but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
(Philippians 4:6 EB)
In Jesus there is forgiveness assurance. We need not to dwell on the past. "Therefore if any person is in Christ, he is a new creature. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17 WEB). God can heal. Unlike medicine, God can bring about complete cures to the hurt and brokenness we experience. Begin a personal relationship with the Savior, practice repentance and be baptized.
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me." (Revelation 3:20 WEB).
Now let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today seeking forgiveness, healing, and peace for Gus, Von, and Rose. We confess any sins they may have committed and ask for Your mercy and grace to wash them clean. We pray for Your healing touch upon their lives, restoring them physically, emotionally, and spiritually. We ask for Your peace to guard their hearts and minds, casting out all anxiety and fear, though the love of Jesus Christ.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
May this prayer be a comfort and strength to Gus, Von, and Rose, and may they continue to seek God's will in their lives. If they have not accepted forgiveness through Jesus Christ already this heals the broken relationship between God and humans. Though we all receive a council of death through sin, we can receive life everlasting though Christ.
