RE: Please Pray For Me and My Family
Lord God Almighty, I come before You for the forgiveness of my sins, wash me clean and make me whole that we may have fellowship together without hindrance. Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin, for the sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God You will not despise.
Vindicate me, O Lord, and help me and those I am interceding for, which is this man and his family, to walk in our integrity according to Your standards. Help us to trust in You Lord without wavering. Examine us, O Lord, and try us; test our minds and our hearts and see if there is any anxiety or any wicked way in us and lead us in the way everlasting. For Your loving kindness is before our eyes, and by Your Holy Spirit we walk in Your Truth. Keep us from sitting with deceitful men, or going with pretenders, and to hate the assembly of the evildoer and not to sit with the wicked.
God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory I come before You dependent upon the fulfillment of Your promises, in humbleness and intercession on behalf of this man and his family and I give You thanks while making mention of them in my prayers; that You, God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to them a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of You. I pray that the eyes of their hearts may be enlightened, so that they will know what is the hope of Your calling, what are the riches of the glory of Christ Jesus' inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of Your power toward us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of the strength of Your might which You brought about in Christ, when You raised Him from the dead and seated Him at Your right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. And You put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
For this reason I bow my knees before You Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, that You would grant them, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in their hearts through faith; and that they, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that they may be filled up to all the fullness of God with the knowledge of Your will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that they may walk in a manner worthy of You, Lord, to please You in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and with all power, according to Your glorious might for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience, joyously giving thanks to You, Father, Who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light. for You delivered us from the dominion of darkness, and transformed us to the kingdom of Your Beloved Son, in Whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
