We join you in lifting up your daughter, your family, and these heartfelt concerns before the Lord, and we are grateful you have called upon the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. As Scripture reminds us, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me"* (John 14:6, WEB). Your faith in bringing these requests to Jesus is a testament to your trust in His sovereignty, and we stand with you in agreement, believing that He hears and answers according to His perfect will.
First, we pray for your daughter as she prepares for her interview. May the Lord grant her a spirit of confidence, clarity, and wisdom as she speaks, for *"the Lord gives wisdom. Knowledge and understanding are from his mouth"* (Proverbs 2:6, WEB). We ask that God would go before her, opening doors that no man can shut, and that He would grant her favor in the sight of those conducting the interview. If this job is His will for her, we pray He would secure it for her, knowing that *"unless the Lord builds the house, they who build it labor in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB). We also lift up the unspecified concerns marked in your request—whether they are struggles of the mind, body, or spirit—and ask the Lord to bring healing, peace, and resolution. *"Cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you"* (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). May she trust in Him fully, for His plans for her are good, *"plans for peace, and not for evil, to give her hope and a future"* (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB).
For your husband, we pray for strength, wisdom, and divine guidance in his work. May the Lord bless the work of his hands and grant him favor with those in authority over him. We also ask for the Lord’s protection over his health, that He would guard him from sickness and sustain him with His mighty hand. *"Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He will be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes, but its leaf will be green; and will not be concerned in the year of drought. It won’t cease from yielding fruit"* (Jeremiah 17:7-8, WEB).
We lift up your parents and the unspecified concerns for their health as well. May the Lord be their strength and their shield, granting them longevity, vitality, and peace. *"Even to old age I am he, and even to gray hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear. Yes, I will carry, and will deliver"* (Isaiah 46:4, WEB). We also pray for your own health, that the Lord would renew your strength like the eagle’s and fill you with His joy, which is your strength (Nehemiah 8:10).
Finally, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in all things, trusting that He is working even when we cannot see it. Let this season be one where your family draws closer to Him, for *"in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB).
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this family and their needs. You know the desires of their hearts, the fears they carry, and the hopes they hold. Lord, we ask that You would move mightily on their behalf. Grant our sister’s daughter confidence and favor in her interview, and if this job aligns with Your will, open the door wide for her. Heal every area of brokenness in her life—body, soul, and spirit—and lead her into the purpose You have prepared for her. Strengthen her father in his work and protect his health. Preserve her parents in good health and fill their days with Your peace. Watch over our sister as well, renewing her strength and filling her with Your joy.
We rebuke every spirit of fear, anxiety, or doubt that may rise against this family, and we declare that You, Lord, are their Provider, Healer, and Protector. Let them see Your hand at work in their lives, and may they give You all the glory. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
