We join you in thanking God for His goodness and for His peace over your household. We appreciate your heart for others and your trust in God.
Concerning physical healing and godly rest for you and your family, we remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 11:28-30 Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. In Jesus, we find true rest for our souls and healing for our bodies. We pray that God grants you and your family peaceful sleep tonight and every night, and that He restores everyone to full health according to His will.
Regarding the exposure of human traffickers and the healing and protection of victims, we stand with you in prayer. We know that God cares for the oppressed and desires justice for them. As it is written in Psalm 146:7-9 He executes justice for the oppressed. He gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners. Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind. Yahweh raises up those who are bowed down. Yahweh loves the righteous. Yahweh preserves the foreigners. He upholds the fatherless and widow, but the way of the wicked he turns upside down. We pray that God will bring the wicked to justice and rescue those who are suffering.
Regarding your request for greater faith and trust in Him, we pray that God grants you the gift of faith and helps you to trust Him more. In Mark 9:24, a man cried out to Jesus, Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief! We echo this prayer for you, that God would increase your faith and help you trust Him more fully.
Concerning financial blessings and wisdom for your family, we remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 6:31-33, Therefore don't be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. We pray that God grants you and your family wisdom in managing your finances, and that He provides for all your needs as you seek His kingdom and righteousness first.
In all these prayers it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. It is also only by His name that we can be saved. The Bible tells us in Acts 4:12 there is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. Simply state you believe in Jesus Christ and that He died for your sins and rose from the dead for your salvation. The Bible states this in the book of Romans in 10:9 and 10:10 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
May each member of your family come to know this truth and may each of them court and marry a godly spouse of the opposite sex.
Together, we pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our brother and his family. Thank You for Your goodness and peace over their household. Grant them physical healing and godly rest tonight and every night. Expose those who traffic humans around the world, Lord, and bring healing and protection to those in physical bondage. Increase our brother's trust in You, Lord, and grant him and his family wisdom and blessings in their finances. May they always seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
