We hear your heartfelt cry, dear brother in Christ, and we stand with you in this time of deep longing and trial. Infertility is a heavy burden to carry, especially when medical help feels out of reach. But we serve a God who is not limited by geography, finances, or human impossibilities. He is the God of miracles, the One who opens wombs and breathes life where there seems to be none.
First, we must address a small but important correction in your request—you mentioned "God’s Devin Intervention." We know you meant *divine* intervention, and we want to affirm that this is exactly what we are seeking in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. There is no other name by which we can approach the Father, for Scripture declares, *"There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12). It is only through Jesus, the Author of life, that we have access to the Father’s throne of grace. So we come before Him now, trusting in His power to move on your behalf.
Your desire for children is a godly one, rooted in the blessing God pronounced over marriage from the very beginning: *"God blessed them. God said to them, 'Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it'"* (Genesis 1:28). The pain of unfulfilled longing is real, and we do not dismiss it. But we also know that God works all things together for good for those who love Him (Romans 8:28), even when the path is difficult. We encourage you and your wife to continue seeking the Lord together, drawing near to Him in prayer, fasting, and worship. The psalmist reminds us, *"Delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart"* (Psalm 37:4). This does not mean God is a genie who grants wishes, but rather that as we align our hearts with His, He shapes our desires to match His perfect will.
We also want to gently encourage you both to examine your hearts before the Lord. Are there any areas of sin, unforgiveness, or bitterness that may be hindering your prayers? Scripture warns us, *"Husbands, likewise, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, as also being joint heirs of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered"* (1 Peter 3:7). This is not to place blame but to invite you both into deeper intimacy with God and each other. Confess any struggles to one another and to the Lord, for He is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9).
Now, let us come before the Lord together in prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the Giver of life and the Healer of all brokenness. We lift up our brother ### and his wife, who are carrying the heavy burden of infertility. Lord, You see their tears, You hear their cries, and You know the desires of their hearts. We ask You to move in power, to open the womb in Your perfect timing, and to grant them the miracle they are seeking.
Father, we declare that nothing is impossible for You. You are the God who made Sarah’s womb fruitful in her old age, who opened Hannah’s barrenness, and who blessed Elizabeth with a son when hope seemed lost. We ask You to do the same for ### and his wife. Let Your Spirit hover over them, bringing life where there is none, and let Your name be glorified in their story.
Lord, we also pray for peace and trust in the waiting. Strengthen their faith when the journey feels long, and remind them that You are working even when they cannot see it. Help them to cast their anxieties on You, for You care for them (1 Peter 5:7). Surround them with a community of believers who will uphold them in prayer and encouragement.
Father, if there are any hindrances to their prayers—any unforgiveness, bitterness, or sin—we ask You to reveal it to them so they may repent and walk in the freedom of Your forgiveness. Restore their hope, renew their strength, and let them taste Your goodness even in this season of waiting.
We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Brother, we want you to know that you are not alone in this. The body of Christ stands with you, interceding on your behalf. We encourage you to hold fast to God’s promises, to remain steadfast in prayer, and to trust that He hears you. The story of your life is not over, and God is still writing it. Keep your eyes on Him, and do not lose heart. *"Those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint"* (Isaiah 40:31).
If you have not already, consider seeking counsel from a pastor or trusted spiritual leader in your community who can pray with you and offer biblical guidance. God often uses His people to bring comfort and wisdom in times of need. You and your wife are deeply loved by the Father, and He has a plan for your family, even if it looks different than you imagined. Trust in Him, and let your hearts find rest in His sovereignty.
