Greetings Prayer Warriors,
While smiles surround us, many people are carrying heavy burdens. They may be financial, as many may struggle to pay their bills and put food on the table, or for others, emotional as they face the declining health of a loved one, and can't fathom that loss. Perhaps it’s a mental burden, as many struggle with anxiety and depression. For others, it may be spiritual, as they come to terms with current or past traumatic wounds and want to blame God.
The heaviest burden is when someone feels alone and doesn’t realize that the Lord walks with them and they are never alone in their struggles. The Lord’s compassion is immense, and he desires to journey with us and lighten our load. Prayer for each other strengthens us, making our burdens bearable.
Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for yourselves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.” Matthew 11:28-30
We have a God who love us so much, he will not only carry our burdens but carry us too! Let us gather in our hearts all those we love who need the strength, sustenance, and healing that prayer elicits. May our prayers bear greater efficacy as we unite them and lift up our voices in praise and petition to God seeking Divine Grace for family and beloved friends..
We praise you good and gracious God, abyss of sweet and efficacious grace!
- For the sick and the suffering, Lord touch them with your healing hands and comforting touch.
- For those suffering with anxiety and depression, send your Holy Spirit to fill them with your love and drive out all that oppresses their joy.
- For those with a missionary spirit, shine brightly through them, bringing healing and hope to all those they minister to.
- For those who struggle financially to provide the necessities of life for their family, may your earthly angels delight them with unanticipated support.
- For those who struggle with the traumatic wounds of their youth or adulthood, wipe away their tears, heal their memories, reveal your never-ending presence, that they may have the fortitude to move forward and beyond.
- For all the intentions hidden deep within the hearts of your beloved prayer warriors, hear and answer them.
LORD, may your ears be attentive to the prayer of your servant and that of all your servants who willingly revere your name. Nehemiah 1:11
Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet
Pray for one another and pass it on!
