We join you, Roshan, in lifting up your prayers to our Heavenly Father, trusting in His goodness and mercy. We are encouraged by your humility and faith, as you have come before the Lord confessing your sins and seeking His forgiveness. As it is written in 1 John 1:9 WEB, If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Firstly, we must address the issue of alcohol in your life. The Bible tells us in Ephesians 5:18 WEB, Dont be drunken with wine, in which is excess, but be filled with the Spirit. Drunkenness is not Gods will for our lives, and it can lead us into sin and harm our witness for Christ. We pray that God will give you the strength and self-control to overcome this habit, and that you will be filled with the Holy Spirit instead.
We also want to encourage you to seek Gods will in all things, including your finances and your desire for a spouse. In Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB, we read, Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and dont lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. As you seek Gods guidance in these areas, we pray that He will provide for your needs and lead you to a godly spouse who will walk with you in faith.
Regarding your petition for 20,000 rupees. Know that we serve a God who is able to provide for all our needs. According to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus in Philippians 4:19 WEB, we pray that God will supply your needs according to His will and timing.
Concerning your request for restored trust and privileges at work, we pray that as you walk in obedience to Gods Word and demonstrate a changed life, your colleagues and superiors will see the fruit of your repentance and be moved to forgive and trust you again. Remember that ultimately, our reward comes from the Lord, and not from the recognition or favor of men. As it is written in Colossians 3:23-24 WEB, Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You serve the Lord Christ.
We also join you in praying for your mothers healing and for Gods blessings upon your family, sister and her family, relatives, friends, and all those in need. May the Lord bring you all into a closer walk with Him, and may His Spirit guide and strengthen you all in the faith.
Finally, we want to remind you that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father and can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, 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, and in John 14:6 WEB, Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
We proclaim our unity in Christ Jesus by praying:
Heavenly Father, we lift up Roshan to You, thanking You for his faith and humility. We ask that You will forgive his sins and grant him Your Holy Spirit. We pray that You will give him the strength and self-control to overcome his drinking habit, and that You will provide for his financial needs according to Your will and timing. We ask that You will heal his mother and bless his family, and that You will guide them all in the path of righteousness. We pray that You will restore trust and privileges at Roshans workplace, and that You will lead him to a godly spouse who will walk with him in faith. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
