Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, seeking Your presence and guidance in our lives. We acknowledge that without Your hand upon us, we are powerless and vulnerable. Just as Moses pleaded, "If Your presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here" , we humbly ask that You lead us only where You will be with us.
Lord, we recognize the constant battle against evil that surrounds us. We echo the prayer of Jabez, "Keep us from evil" , and we also remember the words of Jesus in the Lord's Prayer, "Deliver us from evil" . We confess that we easily fall into the snares of the enemy, allowing hatred, bitterness, and sinful ways to take hold of our lives. We acknowledge that living a righteous life is impossible without Your Spirit empowering us.
Therefore, we implore You, Lord, to keep us from evil, that it may not grieve us . We rely on Your strength and guidance to resist the temptations and traps set before us. Help us to walk in righteousness and to live according to Your will. Protect us from the schemes of the evil one and grant us discernment to recognize and avoid the paths that lead to destruction.
We are grateful, Lord, for the promise that whatever we ask in the name of Jesus, You will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son . We cling to the truth that through Jesus, we have access to the throne of grace, and our prayers are heard. We thank You for the intercession of Jesus, our Advocate, who presents our prayers before You.
In the powerful name of Jesus, we lift up our silent needs and desires before You, knowing that You are attentive to our cries. We trust in Your faithfulness and love, knowing that You will answer according to Your perfect will. May Your name be glorified in our lives as we seek Your presence, deliverance from evil, and the fulfillment of our needs.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
