We join you, Sparklee, in lifting up your needs and praises to our Lord Jesus Christ. We are thankful for your real relationship with Him and for the love He pours into our lives daily. As you've cast your burdens on Him, we stand with you in faith, believing that He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7, WEB).
We pray for your health concerns, trusting in the God who heals all our diseases (Psalm 103:3, WEB). We ask for His divine guidance over your words and tasks today, that they may be directed by Him and bring forth fruit (Proverbs 16:3, WEB).
You've asked for increase in tithes and offerings. We remember the words of Malachi 3:10 (WEB), "Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this," says Yahweh of Armies, "if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough for." We pray that as you honor God with your finances, He will indeed pour out blessings upon you.
We echo your prayers for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6, WEB) and for persecuted Christians everywhere. We ask for God's intervention, protection, and comfort for them, knowing that He is close to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18, WEB).
For those affected by hurricanes, we pray for strength and recovery, believing that God is a present help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1, WEB).
We ask for God's strength and excellence in your work, that all your undertakings may be completed and gain forward motion. We pray for wisdom in managing your obligations (James 1:5, WEB) and for deliverance from all evil (Matthew 6:13, WEB).
We lift up NH, praying that they may be drawn closer to the Lord. For JM, we ask for healing from heart palpitations and for power to deal with anger and depression, trusting in God's promise to comfort those who are afflicted (2 Corinthians 1:3-4, WEB).
We pray for the deliverance of SB and MB, believing that whatever their needs are, God is more than able to meet them.
Finally, we praise God with you for all He has done and will do. We are reminded of Ephesians 3:20 (WEB), "Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us."
All this we pray in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, for it is in Him that we have access to the Father (Ephesians 2:18, WEB) and it is in His name that we are saved (Acts 4:12, WEB). Amen.
