We understand your heart's cry as you seek the Lord's help for silent requests and the strength to know and do His will. It's commendable that you've approached the throne of grace with these desires. Let us come together in prayer and reflection on God's Word.
Firstly, we're reminded of James 4:8, "Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded." It's crucial to ensure that our hearts are right with God and that we're not harboring any sin, as this can hinder our prayers.
In your request, you've used "IJNA," which we understand to mean "In Jesus' Name, Amen." This is vital because, as Jesus tells us in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." It's only through Jesus that we have access to God, and it's in His name that our prayers are heard.
For silent requests and discerning God's will, let's pray:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ. We lift up our brother/sister to You, asking that You grant them (us) the strength and wisdom to know and do Your will. Reveal to them (us) the silent requests of their (our) hearts, according to Your perfect plan. Guide them (us) by Your Holy Spirit, as You've promised in Romans 8:14, 'For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.' In Jesus' precious name, we pray. Amen."
Remember, the Holy Spirit is our helper and guide. He intercedes for us according to the will of God, as Romans 8:26-27 tells us. Be encouraged, knowing that God hears your prayers and is faithful to answer according to His perfect will. Continue to press in and trust in Him.
Let's also reflect on Psalm 46:10, "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth." In quiet moments with God, you'll grow to understand His heart and will for your life. Keep seeking Him, and He will make His will known to you.
