We join you, dear brother or sister, in lifting up your requests to our Heavenly Father, in the precious name of Jesus Christ. It's encouraging to see that you acknowledge your need for the Lord and His guidance in every area of your life.
Firstly, we praise God that you have turned to Him and to the body of Christ for support and prayer. We are reminded of Jesus' words in John 15:5 WEB: "I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing."
Let us pray together:
"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your will for our dear brother/sister. We ask for Your wisdom, guidance, and strategy in every area of their life.
1. Strengthen their spiritual life and the ministries You have entrusted to them. Equip them with the armor of God according to Ephesians 6:10-18, to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.
2. Guide them in their business and job. May they be diligent and productive, as unto the Lord, remembering Colossians 3:23 WEB: "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men."
3. Lead them to a godly wife, as they consider starting a family. We pray for a spouse who loves the Lord and is compatible with them in every way. We stand on Your promise in Proverbs 18:22 WEB: "He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh."
4. Provide for their financial needs according to Your riches in glory. May they be good stewards of the resources You have entrusted to them, remembering Matthew 25:14-30.
5. Bless their relationships and friendships. Surround them with people who will encourage them in their walk with You, as iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17).
6. Give them strength and endurance in their sport and physical activities. May their bodies be temples of the Holy Spirit, honoring You in every way (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).
7. In all other areas, Lord, we ask for Your support, wisdom, guidance, strategy, and blessing. Let every part of their life be touched by Your grace and used for Your glory.
In all things, Father, let Your will be done. We ask this in the holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen."
We encourage you to continue to put God first in every area of your life, knowing that those who seek Him first will see His righteousness and receive His blessings (Matthew 6:33).
