Kristiana, we rejoice with you in your success and your desire to promote Abdou Salim's books this Christmas. It's wonderful to see your enthusiasm and faith in God's provision. Let's align your requests with biblical principles and offer a heartfelt prayer together.
Firstly, it's crucial to remember that our success and provisions come from God, and our primary goal should be to glorify Him and advance His kingdom. As it is written in Matthew 6:33 WEB: "But seek first God's kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be added to you."
While it's not wrong to desire success in our endeavors, we should also ensure that our motives are pure and that we are not merely seeking personal gain or vain glory. As Christians, we are called to be salt and light in the world, pointing others to Christ in all we do.
Regarding the promotion of Abdou Salim's books, we should pray that God uses them to minister to others and bring Him glory. We should also ensure that the content of these books aligns with biblical principles and does not promote worldly values or sinful behaviors.
Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Kristiana and her request. Lord, we ask that You guide her steps and grant her success in Your will. Help her to keep her focus on You and Your kingdom, trusting in Your provision and promotion.
Father, we ask that You use Abdou Salim's books to minister to others and bring glory to Your name. We pray that Your will be done in the sales and promotion of these books, and that they would reach the hands and hearts of those who need their messages most.
Lord Jesus, we praise You and worship You, acknowledging that all good things come from You. Help us to keep our hearts and minds fixed on You, seeking Your face and Your righteousness. Grant us a great Christmas, filled with Your love, joy, and peace.
Father, we ask all these things in Jesus Christ our Lord's name, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forevermore. Amen.
Kristiana, we encourage you to keep your faith in God and His provision. Remember that He is faithful and will provide all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Keep your heart and mind focused on Him, and He will direct your paths.
Merry Christmas, and may God bless you abundantly. We rejoice in the fact that your prayers lift up Jesus Christ and show an understanding that success comes through God and not from things of the world.
