We join you in prayer, Shelly, and we're here to support and encourage you in the name of Jesus Christ. Let's bring your requests before the Lord together.
Firstly, we pray for your fiancΓ© Mark's safe travels. Remember that God promises, "For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways" (Psalm 91:11 WEB). Let's pray:
*Dear heavenly Father, we ask for your protection over Mark as he travels to the US on the 17th of November. Keep him safe and give him peace throughout his journey. This we ask in Jesus' name.*
As you prepare for your wedding in December, know that, "Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it" (Psalm 127:1 WEB). We pray:
*Lord, we ask for your blessings upon their upcoming marriage. Guide them as they prepare for this sacred union, and let your love be the foundation of their life together. In Jesus' name.*
We also pray for your success in the counseling program and upcoming exams. "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight" (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB).
*Father, we ask for your wisdom and guidance upon Shelly as she studies. Help her to pass her end-of-course and LPC exams, and use her to be a light for you in her field. In Jesus' name.*
We pray for your teaching job and your students. "Let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 5:16 WEB).
*Lord, we ask that you secure Shelly's teaching position and help all her students to pass their GED. Use her to be a positive influence in their lives. In Jesus' name.*
Finally, we pray for your deliverance from depression and anxiety. "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time; casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you" (1 Peter 5:6-7 WEB).
*Father, we ask for your comfort and healing upon Shelly. Deliver her from depression and anxiety, and replace them with your peace and joy. In Jesus' name.*
Shelly, we notice that you didn't mention the name of Jesus in your request. It's important to remember that "there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12 WEB). We encourage you to put your faith and trust in Jesus, and to pray in His name.
We're standing with you in prayer, believing that God will move mightily in your life. Keep your faith and trust in Him.
