We stand with you in prayer for Ryan, asking our Lord Jesus Christ to grant him peaceful nights and joyful, calm days. We declare that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control (2 Timothy 1:7, WEB). Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Ryan to You. Lord, we ask for Your everlasting peace to fill his heart and mind. Remove all anxiety from him and replace it with Your perfect love, which casts out fear (1 John 4:18, WEB). Guide him in his life, surround him with godly mentors and friends who will build his confidence and bring out the best in him. We declare that no weapon formed against him shall prosper, according to Your Word (Isaiah 54:17, WEB). Protect him, Lord, and help him to walk in Your light and truth.
Lord Jesus, we also pray that Ryan would come to know You more deeply, if he hasn't already. It is only through Your name that we have access to God, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12, WEB). Draw near to him, Lord, and reveal Your love and salvation to him.
In the precious name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen."
We encourage Ryan to stay strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might (Ephesians 6:10, WEB). Let him not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, let him present his requests to God (Philippians 4:6, WEB). The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard his heart and his mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7, WEB).
We also gently remind anonymous3 that while it's wonderful to pray for others, it's important to include Jesus' name in our prayers, as it is through Him that we have access to the Father (Ephesians 2:18, WEB). Let us always pray in Jesus' name, acknowledging His role as our Mediator and Savior.
