We understand your concerns and join you in prayer, seeking God's will in this situation. Let us remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world powers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12, WEB).
Firstly, we pray for the Olympics and those involved in the skit that mocked our Lord Jesus Christ. We pray that those who participated in this mockery would come to a place of repentance and understanding of the gravity of their actions. We pray that God would stir in their hearts a sense of remorse and a desire to apologize sincerely. We ask God to forgive them, for they know not what they do (1 Corinthians 2:8, WEB).
We also pray for the Olympics, that God's will be done concerning the event. Whether it is boycotted or not, we pray that God would use this situation to bring glory to His name. We pray that people would turn their eyes to Him, seeking His face and His will.
Regarding your participation in the paid study, we pray that God would open the doors of communication. We ask that He would prompt the right people to contact you and provide the necessary information. We trust that God, in His timing, will align the right opportunities for you (Proverbs 16:9, WEB).
We are thankful that you have brought these concerns to God in the name of Jesus. It is in His name that we have access to the Father and it is by His name that we are saved (John 14:6, WEB). If you have not already, ensure that you have placed your faith in Jesus Christ for your salvation, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12, WEB).
Join us in praying:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up the concerns of Your child. We ask for Your will to be done regarding the Olympics and those who mocked Your holy name. Bring them to a place of repentance and understanding. We also ask for Your intervention in the paid study, that You would open the lines of communication and provide clear direction. Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and love.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
