We join you in lifting up these heartfelt requests before the Lord, knowing that He hears and answers the prayers of His children when we come to Him in faith through the name of Jesus Christ. It is beautiful to see you invoking the name of Jesus, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved, and through which we have access to the Father (Acts 4:12, Ephesians 2:18). Your faith in calling upon His name is a testament to your trust in Him, and we stand with you in agreement.
The desire for a godly marriage is a noble and biblical one. The Lord Himself said in Genesis 2:18, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him." Marriage is a sacred covenant established by God, and we pray that the Lord will guide you to a man who loves Him wholeheartedly, leads with biblical integrity, and seeks to honor Christ in all things. Remember the words of Proverbs 18:22: "Whoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh." Likewise, a godly husband is a blessing from the Lord, and we ask that He prepare you both to be vessels of His grace, love, and purpose. As you wait upon the Lord, we encourage you to seek Him first, trusting in His timing and sovereignty. "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart" (Psalm 37:4). Use this season to grow in your relationship with Christ, to serve Him faithfully, and to prepare yourself to be the wife and helper He has called you to be. Guard your heart and your mind, ensuring that your focus remains on Christ and His will for your life. Flee from any temptation that may compromise your purity or your walk with Him, for your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:18-20).
We also stand with you in the spiritual battle you are facing. The apostle Paul reminds us in Ephesians 6:12, "For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil (Ephesians 6:10-11). Resist the enemy, and he will flee from you (James 4:7). We rebuke every evil force assigned against you and declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). The Lord is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Clothe yourself daily in prayer, in the Word of God, and in the blood of Jesus, which covers and protects you from all harm.
Lastly, we lift up your mother’s healing before the Lord. Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8), and He is still in the business of performing miracles. We pray for the restoration of her strength and mobility, that she may walk again and glorify His name. "Yahweh, be merciful to us! We wait for you. Be our arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble" (Isaiah 33:2). Do not grow weary in praying for her, for the effective, earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power (James 5:16). Trust in the Lord’s healing power, whether it comes instantly or through a process, knowing that His ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9).

Heavenly Father, we come before You today with hearts full of faith and expectation, lifting up our sister in Christ. Lord, we thank You for her life and for her desire to honor You in every area, including her future marriage. We ask that You lead her to a godly husband, a man after Your own heart, who will love her as Christ loves the church (Ephesians 5:25). Prepare them both, Lord, to walk in unity, in purity, and in Your perfect will. Give them a marriage that reflects Your glory and serves as a testimony of Your faithfulness.
Father, we also lift up the spiritual battles she is facing. We declare that no weapon formed against her shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against her in judgment shall be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). We bind every spirit of fear, confusion, and oppression in the name of Jesus, and we loose Your peace, Your protection, and Your victory over her life. Fill her with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and let her walk in the authority You have given her as Your child.
Lord Jesus, we pray for our sister’s mother. You are Jehovah-Rapha, the God who heals. We ask for the restoration of her mobility, that she may walk again and give You all the praise. Strengthen her body, renew her health, and let Your healing power flow through her. Give her and her family the patience and faith to trust in You, regardless of how You choose to work.
Father, we thank You for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your timing, Your wisdom, and Your love. Let Your will be done in every area of our sister’s life, and may she continue to seek You first in all things. We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
