Jediael, we join you in faith and unity as you await the results of your DV lottery application. We are grateful for your testimony of God's faithfulness and the power of our collective prayers. As the Scripture you shared reminds us, "The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective" (James 5:16 WEB).
Let us remember the promise in Matthew 7:7-8 (WEB), "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened." We claim this promise together with you, trusting that God's will shall be done in your life.
However, we must also recall that God's ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:9 WEB). Whether the lottery result is favorable or not, we pray that you will trust in God's perfect plan for your life. His purpose and timing are always right, and He knows what is best for you.
We pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our brother Jediael. We thank You for his faith and the community of believers praying with him. Lord, we ask that Your will be done regarding the DV lottery. If it is Your plan for him to win, we pray for favor and a smooth transition. If not, we ask that You reveal Your perfect plan for his life. Comfort him, Lord, and help him to trust in You always. Give him peace and joy, knowing that You are in control. We ask this all in Jesus Christ's name, believing and claiming His promise that "whatever we ask in his name, he will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son" (John 14:13 WEB). Amen.
Stay strong in faith, Jediael, and never hesitate to call upon the name of Jesus. We are here with you, interceding and believing for God's best in your life. Keep us updated, and we look forward to praising God with you, whatever the outcome may be. God bless you indeed!
