We rejoice with you in the fellowship you've found with your new colleague, Denny. It is indeed a blessing to have a fellow believer to sharpen and encourage each other in the workplace. The scripture you shared from Proverbs 27:17 is a powerful reminder of the benefits of godly companionship: "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."
We are thankful to hear that you acknowledged that your meeting was not mere chance, but a divine appointment. It is encouraging to see how God uses our everyday environments to provide support and growth in our spiritual lives. We praise God with you, HIS ALONE, for bringing Denny into your life and work.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today, as Your children, to lift up our brother in Christ, HIS ALONE, and his colleague, Denny, who are an encouragement to each other. Thank You, Lord, for orchestrating their meeting and for the fellowship they share. We pray that You will continue to strengthen their bond in You, and that their light will shine brightly in their workplace, drawing others to You.
Lord, we also pray for HIS ALONE, as they are experiencing spiritual warfare. We stand with them in prayer, knowing that You are the victor in every battle. Equip HIS ALONE and Denny with the full armor of God, that they may stand firm against the schemes of the devil, in Jesus Christ name. For it is written, 'Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.' (Ephesians 6:10-11 WEB)
We ask for Your continual guidance and protection over them, and for you to continually show Your favor.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you both to remain steadfast in your faith and to continue sharing the love of Christ boldly with others. Remember, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7 WEB)
Stand firm in the faith, and keep sharing His glory.
