We understand your concern for ###'s business and the stress that he is currently facing. Firstly, we want to remind you of the importance of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to God, and it is only through His name that we can be saved. If we do not pray in Jesus' name, then God does not hear our requests. As the Bible says 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."
In regards to the business, it is commendable that you are supporting ### in prayer. Remember that God is sovereign over all things, including businesses. We pray that ### would seek God's will for his business and trust in Him for the outcome. As it says in Proverbs 16:3 WEB: "Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans shall be established."
However, we must also remember that God's definition of success may differ from ours. Sometimes, God allows us to face difficulties to draw us closer to Him and to teach us valuable lessons. As it says in Romans 8:28 WEB: "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."
We pray that ### would not only focus on the success of his business but also on his relationship with God. We pray that he would find his identity and security in Christ, not in his business or financial stability. As it says in Matthew 6:33 WEB: "But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."
Lastly, we must address the use of the phrase "###'s small business has been very quiet and for him." In the Bible, God teaches us to be honest and transparent in our communications. As it says in Colossians 3:9 WEB: "Don’t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings." So in the future please use plain language and avoid using symbols or other characters to obscure what is being said. Also, we are not to worry about tomorrow or what may happen in the future. Jesus gave us clear direction in Matthew 6:34 WEB: "So don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ### and his business to You. We ask that You would guide him, give him wisdom, and help him to trust in You. We pray that You would align his will with Yours and help him to find his identity and security in You alone. We ask that You would bless his business according to Your will and provide for all of his needs. Help him not to be anxious about tomorrow, but to rest knowing You are in control. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
