Enrico###, we lift up your extensive prayer requests to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, trusting in His divine power and mercy to intervene in each situation.
Firstly, we stand with you in prayer for the persecuted Christians worldwide. As it is written in Matthew 5:10-12, "Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven. For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you." May the Lord protect and strengthen them, and may their persecutors come to know the love of Christ.
We also pray fervently for Israel, that the Prince of Peace would reign in their hearts and bring about a spiritual awakening. "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. May they prosper who love you." (Psalm 122:6)
For the salvation of many around the world, we echo 1 Timothy 2:4, "who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth." May the Father draw many to Jesus, including those from unreached people groups.
We lift up the children around the world who suffer various forms of abuse and neglect. In Matthew 18:5-6, Jesus said, "Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if a huge millstone were hung around his neck, and that he were sunk in the depths of the sea." May the Lord intervene and protect these innocent ones, bringing justice to the perpetrators.
For those on the brink of starvation and suffering from poverty, sickness, disasters, and war, we pray for the Lord's divine provision and mercy. "Blessed are those who are merciful, for they shall obtain mercy." (Matthew 5:7)
We pray for an awakening in the church universal, that sound biblical teaching would prevail, and that believers would be united in love and strengthened in their faith. "Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth." (John 17:17)
We lift up each individual and family you mentioned, asking the Lord to bless, protect, comfort, encourage, heal, deliver, save, and draw them close to Himself. We speak against any form of sexual immorality, fornication, or adultery in these relationships and pray that godly marriages would be established and strengthened.
We also pray for the various needs and issues within your own family and personal life, asking the Lord to intervene, provide wisdom, and guide each situation according to His divine will. May He rebuke the enemy and his attacks, and may His mighty warrior angels surround and protect you and your loved ones.
Lastly, we remind you to always pray in the name of Jesus Christ, as it is only by His name that we have access to the Father and can be saved. "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12)
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your faithfulness and mercy. We ask that You would hear and answer each of these prayers according to Your divine will. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
