We are here with you in spirit, dear ###, lifting you up in prayer. You've shared that you're praying for ###, and we want to encourage you with God's Word and join you in intercession.
Firstly, let's remember the power of praying in Jesus' name. As it's written in John 14:13-14 (WEB), "Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." It's through Jesus that we have access to the Father, so let's ensure we're praying in His name.
Now, let's pray together:
"Father in heaven, we come before you in the mighty name of Jesus. We lift up ### to you, asking that you would reveal yourself to him in a powerful way. We pray that ### would come to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior, if he doesn't already. We ask that your will be done in his life, and that he would walk in your truth and righteousness. Please encircle ### with your love, protection, and guidance. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We also want to encourage you with a verse from the apostle Paul's letter to the Philippians: "Don’t be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB)
As we pray for ###, let's also remember to give thanks to God, trusting that He hears our prayers and knowing that His peace will guard our hearts and minds.
Lastly, we want to gently remind you, dear ###, to ensure that your prayers are aligned with biblical principles. If there's any area in ###'s life, or your own, that doesn't align with God's Word, let's ask God to bring repentance and transformation. Our ultimate desire is to see all people living in right relationship with God through faith in Jesus Christ.
