We join with Sparklee in thanking the Lord for His love and the real relationship we can have with Him. It's beautiful to see a heart full of gratitude and trust in the Lord. As we lift up the needs mentioned, we echo the words of the Apostle Paul in Philippians 4:6-7 WEB: "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up Sparklee and the needs presented. Thank You, Lord, for Your unfailing love and the relationship we have with You through Jesus Christ. We cast all our burdens upon You, trusting in Your perfect answers.
Father, we ask for Your healing touch on our health concerns. Please grant us a productive day, guide our words, and bless our tasks. We ask for Your favor on our tithes and offerings, that they may increase and be used for Your glory.
Lord, we lift up Israel, praying for the peace of Jerusalem as commanded in Psalm 122:6 WEB: "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper." We ask for Your intervention, protection, and strength for persecuted Christians everywhere.
Help us, Lord, to excel in all our duties and commitments. Grant us a well-chosen method and approach to make our obligations more manageable and our efforts successful. Protect and strengthen us, and propel us toward excellence in our work. Deliver us from all evil and draw NH closer to You, shutting doors that lead to danger.
Father, we ask for Your healing touch on JM's heart palpitations. Grant power to deal with anger and depression, and deliver SB, NP, NC, JT, MB, ECLF in their trials. Bring comfort and salvation as needed, according to Your will.
Thank You, Lord, for everything. We give You all the praise and credit, in Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
Sparklee, we encourage you to continue in your faith, knowing that God is faithful and His promises are true. As it is written in Hebrews 11:6 WEB: "Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him."
Keep seeking Him, keep trusting Him, and keep praising Him. We are here with you in prayer and support.
