We are delighted to join you in prayer for your friends, that God may pour out His blessings upon them this year. We are reminded of Numbers 6:24-26 in the WEB, "Yahweh bless you, and keep you. Yahweh make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you. Yahweh lift up his countenance on you, and give you peace."
Before we pray, we want to encourage you to remember the importance of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." It is through His name that we have access to God the Father, and it is in His name that our prayers are heard.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up the friends of Anonymous to You. We ask that You would bless them abundantly this year, in every area of their lives. We pray that You would make Your face shine upon them, and be gracious to them. We ask that You would give them Your peace, and draw them ever closer to You.
We pray that each one of them would come to know You more deeply, and that they would experience the transforming power of Your love. We ask that You would work in their lives, giving them a heart that desires to serve You and live according to Your will.
We pray all of this in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. It is in His name that we pray, Amen.
As we pray for your friends, we also encourage you to share the good news of Jesus Christ with them. For it is written in Romans 10:13-14, "For, Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved. How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?" It is through faith in Jesus Christ that we are saved, and it is through Him that we receive the blessings of God.
We encourage you to be a light to your friends, and to share the love of Christ with them. For as it is written in Matthew 5:16, "Even so, let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven."
Lastly, we would like to comment on your selfless prayers. It is our duty to pray for our fellow believers. As in James 5:16, "Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective."
