family prayer
We join with you and your family in this beautiful and faithful prayer, and we thank God for your heart that desires His healing, protection, deliverance, and love above all else.
We are encouraged by your faith to call upon the Father in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the throne of grace. As it is written, There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus 1 Timothy 2:5, and In none other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. Your acknowledgment of Jesus' name is precious to God.
Your request reflects the heart of the Lord's own prayer that we be delivered from evil, as Jesus taught us to pray, Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one Matthew 6:13. We cling to the promise that The Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one 2 Thessalonians 3:3, and that He gives His angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways Psalm 91:11.
We also stand with you for healing, for our God declares, I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh Jeremiah 30:17, and that He is the One who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases Psalm 103:3. And we join you in asking that your love for Him would grow each day, for the greatest commandment remains, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind Matthew 22:37.
Let us pray together.
Father God, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus and lift up this family to You. We ask for Your healing hand to rest upon each member, body, soul, and spirit. We ask for Your divine protection to surround their home, and for Your power to deliver them from all evil, from every scheme and temptation of the enemy. Cover them under Your wings where they may take refuge, for You are their refuge and fortress Psalm 91:2. Help them to love You more each day, to seek You with all their hearts, to walk in obedience and grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Draw them closer to one another and closer to You, that their family may be a testimony of Your goodness and faithfulness. We thank You for hearing our prayer, for Your mercy endures forever, and we trust You to answer according to Your perfect will. In Jesus' name we pray, amen.
We encourage you to continue to abide in Him daily through prayer and the reading of His Word, for He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty Psalm 91:1. Keep seeking Him together as a family, and His peace which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7.

We are thankful you brought your family before the Lord in such a simple, honest way. We join you in asking for His healing, protection and deliverance over your home, and for hearts that love Him more each day.
That desire to love Him more is itself a sign of His work in you. Growth in that love seldom happens all at once. Like any real growth it comes gradually, almost imperceptibly, with highs and lows over a lifetime. What matters most is staying close to Him in the ordinary ways He has given us, time in His Word, honest prayer together, and worship at home and with other believers. And we depend on His Spirit to make that growth happen, because we cannot grow on our own. God has made each family unique, so the way He nurtures that growth will look a little different in your home than in another's.
A small next step many families find steadying is to choose one consistent moment to pray this very prayer together, perhaps at the dinner table or before bed, just a minute to thank Him and ask for His covering for the day ahead.
Father, we lift this family to You in Jesus' name. Cover them with Your protection, bring healing where it is needed, deliver them from evil, and draw each heart closer to You day by day. Keep them in Your care and help them know Your nearness. Amen.

Beloved of All
Your prayer for your family has been carried to the throne of grace, and I join my own supplications to yours before our Father in heaven.
How sweet is that petition, that you may love Him more each day. We love Him because He first loved us, and the only way to love God more is to let His love to you dwell in your soul till it transforms your soul into itself. Let your soul swim as in a sea of love and say, My Father, my God, my own God, I love You. As you meditate upon His great love which has made your love to Him possible, that love will strengthen you for service and constrain you to walk more closely with Him. Perfect love to God leads to the perfect life with God.
You have asked for healing, and blessed be God, the Physician is at the right hand of God. Jesus is that blessed tree whose leaves are for the healing of the nations, and the very leaves are healing, so that the least thing about Christ is healing. Whether the need be of body or of soul, bring it to Him, for all things work together for good to them that love God, to them that are the called according to His purpose.
You have asked for protection and deliverance from evil. God alone can take away the iron when it enters into the soul, and deliverance from sin and from the power of the evil one is solely by the power of God. He has not forgotten His promise, for He has said, Fear not, for I am with thee, be not dismayed, for I am thy God. Nothing touches Him like the groans of His children, and He hears your cries and His compassions are moved towards you. He who brought forth His people of old with a mighty hand and outstretched arm is still Jehovah your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Saviour, and He is able to keep you and to deliver you from every evil work.
May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ. May He cause His healing influences to rest upon your household, may He cover you under His wings and keep you from evil, and may He grant that each day your love to Him may abound more and more, till it bears fruit in a life of joyful obedience.
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ Thy Son, hear this family. Heal where there is sickness, protect where there is danger, deliver where the enemy assails, and shed abroad Thy love in every heart, that they may love Thee and serve Thee with gladness all their days. Amen.
