We come before the Lord with hearts full of gratitude that you have lifted these requests in the mighty name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and can boldly approach His throne of grace. Your prayer is rich with intercession for many, and we join you in lifting these burdens to the Lord, trusting in His power to move mightily in every situation.
First, we want to encourage you in the truth of **Ephesians 3:20-21**, which reminds us that God is able to do *exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think*, and we give Him all the glory. You have rightly acknowledged this in your prayer, and we stand in agreement that He will work beyond what we can imagine.
For the protection and breakthrough you seek—both for yourself and for all in need—we turn to **Psalm 91**, where the Lord promises to be a refuge and fortress. His angels are commanded to guard us in all our ways, and we claim this over every believer crying out for deliverance. The battles we face are not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces, so we put on the full armor of God (**Ephesians 6:10-18**) and declare that no weapon formed against God’s people will prosper (**Isaiah 54:17**).
Regarding the decision you are seeking wisdom for, we urge you to lean on **James 1:5**, which promises that if any of us lacks wisdom, we should ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach. Seek His will through prayer, His Word, and godly counsel, trusting that He will direct your steps (**Proverbs 3:5-6**). Do not rush ahead of Him, but wait patiently for His leading, knowing that His timing is perfect.
For the conflict with your sister in Christ, we are reminded of **Matthew 18:15-17**, which teaches us to seek reconciliation with humility and love. If she has sinned against you, address it privately and gently, with the goal of restoration. If you have contributed to the strife, ask the Lord to reveal it to you and repent. Pray that the Holy Spirit would soften both of your hearts and bring unity, for how can we say we love God whom we cannot see if we do not love our brother or sister whom we can see? (**1 John 4:20**).
We also lift up the unnamed individuals you have mentioned—those in need of a Christian home, those caught in evil, and those who need salvation and healing. The Lord’s heart is for the broken, and He desires that none should perish (**2 Peter 3:9**). We pray that He would severely confront the evil at work, bringing conviction and repentance, and that He would place these individuals in godly environments where they can encounter His love. For those who are fueling harmful behavior, we ask that the Lord would expose their deeds and turn their hearts to Him, breaking every chain of sin.
For the persecuted Christians, the unsaved, the nation of Israel, and those suffering in war zones and calamities, we declare **Psalm 46:1-3**: *"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we won’t be afraid, though the earth changes, though the mountains are shaken into the heart of the seas; though its waters roar and are troubled, though the mountains tremble with their swelling."* We pray for supernatural intervention, for the salvation of souls, and for peace that surpasses understanding to guard the hearts of those in distress. We also pray for the abused children, that the Lord would be their defender and deliverer, placing them in the care of righteous guardians who will nurture them in His love.
Finally, we address the weakness you mentioned. **2 Corinthians 12:9-10** reminds us that God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness. Do not despair, but boast in your weaknesses, for when you are weak, then you are strong in Him. He will sustain you and equip you to handle every situation in a manner pleasing to Him. For the individual you mentioned needing the Lord’s intervention, we pray that God would speak clearly to him, that his heart would be open to conviction, and that you would respond with grace, truth, and wisdom.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You are sovereign over all things, that nothing is too difficult for You, and that Your ear is attentive to the cries of Your people. Lord, we ask for Your *extra strong* protection—a hedge of fire around Your children, that no harm would befall them, and that every scheme of the enemy would be exposed and thwarted. Grant breakthroughs in every area of need, that Your name would be glorified and that many would turn to You in repentance and faith.
We lift up our sister who seeks wisdom for a decision. Father, illuminate her path with Your Word and Your Spirit. Give her discernment to recognize Your voice and the courage to obey, even if it is difficult. May she walk in the confidence that You are ordering her steps.
For the conflict with her sister in Christ, we ask for reconciliation and unity. Soften hearts, Lord, and remove any bitterness or pride. Let Your love prevail, and may this situation bring glory to Your name as forgiveness and restoration take place.
We intercede for those caught in sin and evil—bring conviction, Lord, and do not let them go. Break the power of darkness over their lives and draw them to Yourself. Provide Christian homes for those who need them, and let Your light shine brightly in every dark place.
For the persecuted, the suffering, and the lost, we ask for Your mercy and intervention. Comfort those who mourn, heal the brokenhearted, and save the lost. Let Your peace reign in Israel and in every nation torn by war. Protect the innocent, especially the children, and raise up defenders for them.
Strengthen our sister in her weakness, Lord. Be her portion and her shield. Speak to the hearts of those she has mentioned, and give her the words and actions that please You.
We declare that You are able to do *exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think*, and we trust You to move in power. Fill the earth with Your glory, Lord, and let Your kingdom come in every situation we have lifted before You today.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and King, we pray. Amen.
