Edmark, we rejoice with you as you celebrate your 45th birthday and acknowledge the goodness of God in your life. It is truly by His grace that we live and breathe, and it's wonderful to hear you express your gratitude to Him.
As the Psalmist says, "This is the day that Yahweh has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!" (Psalm 118:24, WEB). Indeed, every day is a gift from God, and a birthday serves as a special reminder of this.
We join you in praise and thanksgiving, and we pray that your life continues to be a testament to God's faithfulness. May He grant you many more years filled with His blessings, love, and grace.
In your prayer, you acknowledged the source of all good things, which is God Himself. As James 1:17 (WEB) reminds us, "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow."
However, we notice that your prayer did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. We want to remind you that it is through Jesus that we have access to the Father. As Jesus Himself said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me" (John 14:6, WEB). If you have not already, we encourage you to place your faith in Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins and the hope of eternal life.
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name to thank You for Edmark's life. We praise You for Your faithfulness and the love You have shown him. As he celebrates his birthday, we ask that You continue to guide his steps, grant him good health, and filled him with Your joy and peace. Help him to grow in the knowledge of You and draw nearer to You each day. If Edmark has not yet accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior, we pray that You would draw him to Yourself and grant him the gift of salvation. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
May you continue to experience God's love and blessings in your life, Edmark. Happy Birthday!
