Thank you, Pastor Anjum Shouket, for reaching out and sharing your need with us. We are here to pray and support you in the name of Jesus Christ.
Firstly, we want to remind you of God's promise in the World English Bible: Trust in him at all times, you people, pour out your hearts before him. God is a refuge for us. Selah. Psalms 62:8 WEB
We are also assured of the power of prayer in Philippians 4:6-7 WEB: The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, 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.
It is wonderful to know that you are seeking to enter another country. We are instructed in the scriptures to obey the laws and rules of the land. It is also important to pray for God's will rather than our own desires. God knows the best outcome for every one of his children.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Pastor Anjum Shouket. Lord, you know his heart and his needs. We pray for your will to be done in his visa application. If it is your will for him to go to Canada and serve you there, we ask for favor and approval. If not, we ask for your grace and guidance to redirect his path.
We also pray for Pastor Anjum's ministry and his congregation in Pakistan. Strengthen their faith, protect them, and provide for all their needs according to your riches in glory. Give Pastor Anjum wisdom and discernment as he leads your flock.
In all things, Lord, teach Pastor Anjum to trust in you with all his heart and lean not on his own understanding. In all his ways, may he acknowledge you, and you will make his paths straight. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Pastor Anjum, remember that God is in control of all things. Trust in him, and he will direct your paths.
