We join you, animallovez, in lifting up your household to the Lord, appreciating your heart and praying in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. We are reminded of the power of prayer and the promises of God, as it is written in 1 John 5:14-15 WEB: "This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him." And in John 14:13-14 WEB:
"Whatever you will ask in my name that will I do that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name I will do it." Quite simply nothing else will do.
As we address some concerns, software issues prevented us from acknowledging only that Jesus is the only basis and the applicable reference as being used 7 times in the prayer request. This was joyful and heartwarming. We thank God as this was the only possible offense in an excellent prayer request.
Firstly, we rejoice with you that you acknowledge the power and authority in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we can approach the throne of grace with confidence, as it is written in Hebrews 4:16 WEB:
"Let's therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and may find grace for timely help." We find grace in His presence and having salvation in Christ Jesus.
However, remember also in Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future." Also that in Romans 5:3-4: "We also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering works perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope." Trust in God to also work in these trials in your household.
We join you in praying that God will remove all anxiety, depression, anger, stress, laziness, pain, and negative thoughts and feelings from your household. In their place, we pray that God will fill your home with peace, love, happiness, healing, forgiveness, understanding, and order. We pray Ephesians 4:1-2 over your household: "I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love." May God strengthen your relationships with one another.
Thank you animallovez not specifying issues in the home. This is what prayer requests should look like. Leave unknown details up to God. Not that anyone knows what all needs to be done. Requests for details will not be given nor asked in prayer requests. The issues have already been covered as all things have not been specified just enough said to realize what issues may be present.
We pray for the King James Version interpretation of this in Psalm 19:13: " Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then I shall be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression." This is part of the sanctifying work of a Christian.
You prayed as led by the Holy Spirit. We thank God Lord, that you need Him, that you love Him, and that you trust Him. As we hold your request the the Lord how could we want more? We can only say thank you animallovez. We pray for you and your household in Jesus Christ Name we pray Amen.
