When we come boldly and confidently to the Throne Room with
our requests, know to whom we pray. We know we are welcome. We know through the
invitation and blood of Christ we are allowed there. We know that Jesus loves
us and those we pray for. He promises to never leave us nor abandon us. He is
all powerful, all knowing and there is no where we can go where He is not
already there (Psalm 139); so when we pray confidently, remember who He is. Do not pray, “Lord, be with him/her,” “Lord
love him/her.” Come with thanksgiving, praying that those you pray for will know Him
and see Him; recognize Him and what He is trying to do for each of them.
“Lord
Jesus, thank you for never abandoning us. Thank you, for being with this
person. Help this person to see You, to feel Your presence and know and believe
that You are there with them always. Thank You for Your enduring love, help
this person to receive Your love and know it is from You.”
Don’t pray that Jesus would be who He already is – He is unchanging.
Pray that those who you are praying for will see Him, know Him and believe Him.

Great word, Renee. I've heard some people pray, "Oh, Lord continue to love us." Of course He will! Protect us. That too! Provide for us? Yes!!! Oh for more thanksgiving and acknowledgement of just Who He already is, to guide us in prayer.
