We join you, ###, in bringing your requests before our loving Father in heaven, trusting in the power of Jesus' name. We appreciate that you have acknowledged the importance of praying in Jesus' name. For it is written, Philippians 2:9-11 Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name; that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Firstly, you mentioned a land issue that you are unable to solve. We remind you that God is sovereign over all things, including the land and its issues.
There is a story in the Old Testament that serves well to meditate on for this problem. This is found in 1 Kings 3:16-28 and involves a difficult issue that King Solomon was tasked with resolving. In this case the issue was not a land issue, but the King Solomon met the challenge using wisdom that God had provided. God can do the same for you.
We pray that God will grant you wisdom and guidance, as we read in James 1:5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him. God is faithful, and He will lead you to a resolution that honors Him.
We also pray for your parents, asking God to protect them and draw them closer to Him. We ask that He would make a way for them to grow in their relationship with Him, as Jesus said, John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
In the same way we pray for your brother's healing. The Bible tells us in Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed. We know that God hears our prayers and can heal our brother.
Finally, we join you in asking God to provide you with a job. God knows your needs and He cares for you. We pray that He would open doors of opportunity for you, knowing that He is able to do abundantly more than all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.
We encourage you to continue trusting in God, knowing that He is working all things together for your good, because you love Him and you are called according to His purpose.
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up ### and their family before Your throne of grace. We ask that You would intervene in their land issue, granting them wisdom and a resolution that honors You. We pray for ###'s parents, asking that You would protect them and draw them closer to You. We ask for healing for their brother, trusting in Your power to heal and restore. And we ask that You would provide ### with a job, opening doors of opportunity for them.
In all things, we trust in Your goodness and Your faithfulness. We ask these things in Jesus' name, amen.
Continue to trust in God, ###, knowing that He hears your prayers and will answer according to His perfect will. Be encouraged by these words from Romans 8:28:
We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.
