Faithful Servant
Please Lord listen to my prayers for my sister, nieces, and nephews from both side of the family. Growing in the church has made them cynical and hard to your message. The outside world calls to them and is so enticing. Friends and even family members entice them to live a double life. God give my sister and borther-in-law guidance on how to raise these children with both a strong and gently hand as you treat us. Please be with my niece who is unsure of her Christian belief and allegiance to God. Lord surround them all with your angels and holy spirit and convict hearts. Open their eyes so that they may see clearly and not be beguiled. I pray for the pastors of my church and the church members. One pastor struggles with depression and struggles with pleasing people, pleasing the senior pastor, and pleasing God. Show him clearly what he needs to do to find peace in his heart and the direction he should continue. The other pastor is young and tends to be controlling and ruling. Show him that you yourself do not lead in such fashion. Teach us all how to be 'gentle as doves and wise as serpents'. Give us wisdom to know how to address the spiritual issues in the church. Touch the members hearts who hold grudges and hurts to let them go. Help me to let go of the hurts that I have encountered with the church and it's politics and find a place that I can serve you. Forgive me my lack of service and my excuses. Give me wisdom when I speak. Help me with a parenting seminar I will present in the fall that you may give me the wisdom to speak the words that will help parents with their children. May these words come from the influence of your spirit. Please be with my father and his family, my half sister and her family, my daughter who is working hard to finish the PA program she is in. Thank you Lord for her faithfulness to you and the wisdom you have given her. Pray for her boyfriend as well and help him find the work and the maturity he needs to become the future husband and father he will someday he will be. Guard his heart and help him find his path as well. Be with my husband. Help him with his leadership that it may guided always from you. Sometimes he makes impetuous and impulsive decisions or statements. Give him wisdom to think before saying. Help him and my mother to get along. Give him insight to how his behaviors may affect others even with his best intentions. Help him see his faults and then ask you for help to change them. Heal my mother and even in limited understanding of you. Reach her heart Lord. Be with uncles and cousins near and far who do not know you Lord and change their hearts. May your name be praised for you constantly bestow your blessings to us on a daily basis and we take it for granted. Change our hearts oh God and increase our faith. You are an awesome and wonderful God. Faithful always to the end. Come soon Lord Jesus! Amen!
