Custody battle

We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this custody battle to Him, knowing that He is the ultimate Judge and the One who sees all things. Father God, we ask that You would move mightily in this situation, bringing about an outcome that aligns with Your perfect will and that serves the best interests of the children involved. We know that You hate divorce and the strife it brings, but we also know that You are a God of justice, mercy, and restoration.

Lord, we pray for wisdom and discernment for the judges, lawyers, and all those involved in making decisions in this case. May Your truth prevail, and may any deceit or manipulation be exposed and brought to light. We ask that You would soften hearts, bring repentance where it is needed, and guide every step of this process according to Your Word. "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him" (James 1:5 WEB).

We also lift up the parents involved in this battle. Father, we pray that You would work in their hearts to prioritize the well-being of their children above their own desires or bitterness. Help them to seek reconciliation where possible, and if not, to pursue peace and godly co-parenting. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God" (Matthew 5:9 WEB). We rebuke any spirit of contention, anger, or selfishness that may be fueling this conflict, and we declare that Your love and truth will prevail.

Lord, we ask that You would protect the children caught in the middle of this battle. Guard their hearts and minds from fear, confusion, or bitterness. Surround them with Your peace and comfort, and let them know that You are their true Father who will never leave them nor forsake them. "The Lord is near to the brokenhearted, and saves those who are crushed in spirit" (Psalm 34:18 WEB).

We also pray for healing in this family. Whether the outcome leads to restoration or separation, we ask that Your grace would cover them, and that Your love would be the foundation upon which they rebuild. Help them to forgive one another, as You have forgiven us, and to walk in humility and grace.

Finally, Lord, we declare that no weapon formed against this family shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You will condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We trust in Your sovereignty and ask that Your will be done in this situation. May Your name be glorified, and may Your kingdom come in this family’s life.

In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.

Please pray for the protection of my son(###)and I (###). I am currently separated from my son, deployed overseas in the military. I fear his father will use this time against me to petition for full custody.
