Paramenesko, we join you in lifting up your friends who are struggling with grief, loss, and other hardships. We stand with you in Jesus' name, asking God to comfort and strengthen them in their trials.
Let us pray together: "Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up the friends of our brother in Christ, Paramenesko. We ask that You would comfort them in their grief and loss, and provide for their every need according to Your riches in glory. Be their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1, WEB).
Lord, we pray that through these trials, they would draw closer to You, seeking Your face and finding hope in Your love. May they come to know the height, depth, length, and breadth of Your love, and be filled with all the fullness of God (Ephesians 3:18-19, WEB).
We also ask that You would use them for Your purposes, Lord. That through their trials, they would be a light to the world, pointing others to the hope and salvation found in Jesus Christ alone. May they find their identity and purpose in You, Lord, and live lives that bring glory to Your name. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We are encouraged by the words of Romans 5:3-4 (WEB), "We also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope." Through their trials, may your friends find hope in the Lord, and may their faith be strengthened and refined.
We commend you, Paramenesko, for your heart of compassion and intercession for your friends. Continue to be a source of support and encouragement to them, pointing them to the love and hope found in Jesus Christ.
As a reminder, it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12, WEB). Continue to pray and intercede for your friends, that they too may come to know the saving power of Jesus' name.
