Thank you for your heartfelt prayer request. We join you in bringing your petitions before the throne of grace, seeking God's will in your life and take great pleasure in God's promise, Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need.
Firstly, we praise God for your faith in Jesus Christ and your desire to keep your faith in Him. As you have confessed your sins, remember that If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Concerning your financial struggles, we pray that God will provide for your needs according to His riches in glory. Remember that God cares for you and will supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. We encourage you to trust in Him and follow His principles for stewardship. It is also important to be responsible with finances and live within our means. As you seek God's provision, also consider how you can be a good steward of what He has already given you and perhaps you can maximize your earnings.
Regarding your mother's health, we pray for God's healing and strength upon her. Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
We are concerned about your drinking habits, and while you wishing to control them, God's Word tells us to be sober and self-controlled in all things. Therefore, we encourage you to abstain from alcohol completely, as it can lead to sin and cause harm to your body and relationships. Do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit. Since everyone seems to only want moderate drinking, zero alcohol consumption would be best sixty percent of the time and someone that does drink should be considered possibly dangerous.
Concerning your desire for marriage, we pray that God will bring a godly spouse into your life in His perfect timing. Seek God's will and trust in Him. Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers, for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?
Lastly, always remember to pray in Jesus' name, for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved. And whatever you may ask in my name, that I will do.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother Roshan Dsouza. Lord, forgive his sins and strengthen his faith in You. Provide for his financial needs according to Your riches in glory. Heal and strengthen his mother, and be with her always. Bless his family, friends, and all those in need. Help him to overcome his drinking habits and live a life of sobriety and self-control. Guide him to a godly spouse and grant him a blessed marriage and family. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue trusting in God, following His principles, and seeking His will in all areas of your life. Be strong and courageous.
