a prayer is good medicine
Holy, Gracious, Heavenly Father!

I ask you to bless my friends. I am asking You to minister to them. Where there is pain, give them Your supernatural peace. Where there is self doubting, release a renewed confidence in Your ability to work through them. Where there is exhaustion, I ask You to give them understanding, patience, and strength as they learn submission to Your leading. Where there is spiritual stagnation, I ask You to renew and revive them by revealing Your nearness, and by drawing them into greater intimacy with You. Where there is fear, perfect Your love. Where there is a sin blocking them, reveal it, bring them to repentance and break its hold over their life. Bless their finances as they learn to give cheerfully, give them greater vision, and raise up leaders and friends to support and encourage them. Show each of them Your truth, bless them with Your wisdom, and give them discernment to recognize the evil forces at work around them. Empower them through Your Word to defeat darkness and overcome sin and temptation.

I ask You to do these things for my friends, in and through the power and authority of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, Amen.
