We join with you, Powers, in lifting up your family before the throne of grace. We stand in agreement with you, praying in the name of Jesus Christ, as it is only by His name that we have access the Father. It is that name alone at which every name kneels. It is by His authority alone that we can be saved and that is the message of salvation and eternal life. That if you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord and that God raised him up from death, then you will be saved. Your belief is demonstrated by repentance from sin and a desire to live a godly life.
As we pray, we are reminded of the words of Jesus in John 17:15-17 (WEB), "Not as the world, I pray that you would keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth."
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ### and their family. We thank You for Your loving kindness and faithfulness. Father, we ask that You heal and guard their family today. Deliver them from the evil one. Father, You are a mighty fortress, a strong tower, and a present help in times of trouble. We speak Jesus in each of their hearts right now. Your word says in Proverbs 3:24 (WEB), that if they lie down, they shall not be afraid; yes, they shall lie down, and their sleep shall be sweet. Colossians 2:6-7 (WEB), gives us assurance that if they walk with Jesus through all of the life decisions, that their roots will go down deep so that they will not be affected by the waves of life. Father, let the Holy Spirit move mightily in their lives today and every day hereafter until they are all eternally with the Lord. The battle is not theirs but the Lord's.
We pray for ### and their family, that You would draw their hearts and souls daily to Jesus. Holy Spirit, we ask that You would sanctify them in Your truth, for Your word is truth and accomplishes that for which it was sent. Heavenly Father, empower them to rightly divide the Word of Truth that they may be approved unto You. We pray that You would grant them repentance in the knowledge of the truth leading to them being filled with the Holy Spirit who is the Spirit of Truth to produce fruit in their family. Give them the grace to proclaim the Gospel to others. Father, and we thank You for this in Jesus' name. Amen.
We encourage you, ###, to continue praying fervently for your family. Stand on the promises of God, and trust in His unfailing love. Be strong and courageous, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. For The Lord is good, his loving kindness is everlasting, and his faithfulness endures from generation to generation. May we all stand and proclaim his mercies are new every morning. May the God of all comfort give you the ability to seek him and his kingdom first before anything else in this world.
