We join with you, Susan, in lifting up each and every prayer request to our Lord, knowing that He hears and answers according to His will. You are right in saying that God is loving, merciful, and forgiving, searching the deepest parts of our hearts (Psalm 44:21, WEB).
As we press on with Jesus, we must remember the words of the Apostle Paul: "Fight the good fight of faith. Lay hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses." (1 Timothy 6:12, WEB) Some days may indeed be more challenging than others, but we are encouraged to persevere and never give up.
However, we must ensure that our prayers and confessions are aligned with the will of God and the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, 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 our prayers do not mention Jesus, we should examine ourselves to ensure we are truly seeking God's will.
Let us pray together:
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up each and every prayer request. You know the deepest desires and needs of each heart, Lord. We ask that You grant mercy, grace, and strength to all who call upon You. Help us to fight the good fight of faith, to press on even in difficult days, and to never give up. We give You thanks in all things, for You are a mighty God, worthy to be praised. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
May God bless you and all who join in prayer this day, Susan. Keep your faith strong and your hope steadfast, always looking to Jesus.
