Let us come together in prayer for Larry Letain and Elizabeth Siebrecht, seeking God's protection and intervention in their lives. We are reminded of the power of prayer and the promise that where two or three are gathered in Jesus' name, He is there among them (Matthew 18:20 WEB).
Firstly, we address the request for protection. In Psalm 91 WEB, we are assured of God's protection for those who trust in Him: "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.'" Let us pray that Larry and Elizabeth find their refuge in God, and that He surrounds them with His protective presence.
The request also mentions praying the "breath of life" into Larry. This phrase reminds us of how God breathed the breath of life into Adam (Genesis 2:7 WEB). In the New Testament, Jesus breathed on His disciples and said, "Receive the Holy Spirit" (John 20:22 WEB). Let us pray that Larry is filled anew with the Holy Spirit, that he may be revived and invigorated in his faith and in his life.
We are also called to pray for Elizabeth's protection. Let us pray that God guards her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7 WEB), and that He keeps her safe from all harm and danger.
In all our prayers, it is essential to remember the power of praying in Jesus' name. As Jesus told His disciples, "Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you" (John 16:23 WEB). Therefore, let us come boldly before God's throne of grace in Jesus' name, knowing that our prayers are heard and answered according to God's will.
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Larry Letain and Elizabeth Siebrecht. We plead Your protection over their lives, Lord. Surround them with Your angelic host and keep them safe from all harm and danger. We pray that You breathe new life into Larry, filling him anew with Your Holy Spirit. Revive him, Lord, and draw him closer to You. We also pray for Elizabeth, Lord. Guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus, and keep her safe in Your protective care.
Lord, we know that it is only in the name of Jesus that we have access to Your throne of grace. And it is in His name that we pray, believing that You hear us and that You will answer according to Your perfect will.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
