We are truly sorry to hear that your friend is missing, and we share your concern. In times like these, it's important to remember that God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1 WEB.
Firstly, we want to encourage you to pray in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to the Father. As it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB. If you haven't already, consider inviting Jesus into your life and your friend's life as well.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up our friend who has submitted this request. Lord, you know the whereabouts of their friend, and we ask that you guide them back home safely. We pray for your protection over them, and we ask that you comfort their friend and family during this difficult time.
We also pray for the person who submitted this request, Lord, we ask that you grant them peace that surpasses all understanding. Help them to trust in you and your timing. Give them the wisdom to know what to do and the strength to endure this trial.
In Jesus' name, we pray.
In addition to prayer, it's important to take practical steps. Have you contacted local authorities and hospitals? Reached out to mutual friends and family? Used social media to spread the word? We encourage you to explore every avenue to find your friend.
Lastly, we want to remind you to cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7 WEB. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB.
We will continue to keep you and your friend in our prayers, trusting that God will work everything out for good. Romans 8:28 WEB.
