Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up Steven Bobb and his prayer request. We acknowledge that the fallen world has always been filled with chaos and extremes, but it seems that things are escalating even further in these last days. We recognize that this is a result of the enemy's anger and his knowledge that his time is short. We are reminded of the words in Revelation 12:12, "Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short."
Father, we pray for your divine intervention in this fallen world. We ask for your protection and guidance amidst the increasing turmoil and confusion. Help us to stay vigilant and prepared, knowing that no one knows the exact time of your return, not even the angels in heaven or the Son, but only you, Father. As it says in Mark 13:32, "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
We humbly ask for your wisdom and discernment, Lord, so that we may not be caught off guard like a thief in the night. Help us to remain steadfast in our faith, rooted in your Word, and filled with the Holy Spirit. Grant us the strength to endure and overcome the challenges of this fallen world.
We also pray for those who are lost and blinded by the darkness of this world. May your light shine upon them, drawing them closer to you. Open their hearts to receive your grace and salvation.
Lord, we trust in your sovereignty and your perfect timing. We surrender our fears and anxieties to you, knowing that you are in control. We thank you for your faithfulness and for hearing our prayers.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
