We understand that you are carrying a heavy burden for your children and their future. Let us first remember that God is our ultimate provider and that He cares for our needs, as it is written in Philippians 4:19, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."
Firstly, we are instructed to bring our requests to God in the name of Jesus. To pray in Jesus' name is to pray in line with His will and acknowledging Him. We see this is John 14:13-14, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."
Now let us pray for your son and daughter. We pray that God will open doors for employment that are fitting for your children's skills and education. We ask that their CVs will be seen by the right people and that favor will be granted to them.
Furthermore, we remember 2 Thessalonians 3:10, "For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: 'If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat.'" This verse reminds us of the importance of seeking honest work and contributing to society. We pray that your children will find work that allows them to be productive and responsible citizens.
Regarding your daughter's education, we pray for God's provision, and make this verse our prayer in Proverbs 16:3, "Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans will be established." We ask that if it is His will, He will provide the necessary financial assistance for her to complete her last year in college, either through NSFAS or another means.
Lastly, we pray that God will grant you peace and strength during this time. Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you as it says in 1 Peter 5:7. Remember that God sees your needs and He is faithful to provide.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up this parent and their children. We ask for Your provision and guidance in their lives, especially concerning employment and education. We pray that You will open the right doors for their son and daughter, and that Your will be done in their lives.
Help this parent to cast all their anxiety on You, knowing that You care for them and their family. We pray this all in Jesus' name.
Amen.
