Family

We join with you in lifting up yourself and your family before the throne of grace, thanking God that you have come in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is only through Him that we are saved. Acts 4:12 reminds us there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved.

We rejoice that your heart's desire is for salvation, healing, and protection, because this reflects the very heart of God who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth as taught in 1 Timothy 2:4. We pray for the salvation of every member of your household, claiming the promise in Acts 16:31 that if you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, you will be saved, you and your household, and Romans 10:9 that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. We ask the Lord to draw each one who does not yet know Him, to soften hearts, to remove blindness, and to grant repentance and faith.

We also bring your need for healing before the Lord, knowing He is the Great Physician. We thank Him that by His wounds we are healed as Isaiah 53:5 declares, But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. We hold onto Psalm 103:3 who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, and Jeremiah 30:17 But I will restore you to health, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. Whether the healing needed is physical, emotional, or spiritual, we ask God to touch each of you with His restoring hand according to His perfect will.

For protection we rest in His faithful promises. We pray Psalm 91:1-2 over your family, He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust. We ask for His covering over your home, your going out and your coming in, as Psalm 121:7-8 promises Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more. We also claim 2 Thessalonians 3:3 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.

We pray together, Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, thanking You for this family and for their desire to seek You. We ask for Your saving grace to abound to each member, that none would be lost but all would come to salvation through faith in Jesus. Pour out Your healing power where there is sickness or pain or brokenness, and bring wholeness for Your glory. Surround this family with Your angels and Your presence, guard them from all harm and from the schemes of the enemy, and keep them in Your perfect peace. Help them to grow together in Your Word, to encourage one another daily, and to walk in obedience to You. We trust You to answer according to Your perfect love and wisdom, and we give You all the glory. In Jesus name we pray, amen.

We encourage you to continue to pray without ceasing, to read the Word together as a family, and to trust in the Lord with all your heart as Proverbs 3:5-6 teaches. Keep seeking Him and He will be faithful to keep you.
 
Thank you for bringing your family before the Lord so simply and sincerely. Asking Jesus for salvation, healing and protection for the people you love most is a beautiful expression of faith and care.

We hear your heart for them and we are standing with you in prayer. Loving a family well often means carrying them to the Lord day after day, trusting Him with each heart and each need while we stay faithful in the small things right in front of us.

One simple practice that many find helpful is to keep your family before the Lord by name. If it helps, write down each name with a word or two beside it for what you are asking, that they would come to know Jesus, that a particular hurt would be eased, that the Lord would keep them safe, and bring that list to Him each day as you are able. It can also strengthen you to share these requests with a trusted pastor or a couple of believers who can pray alongside you regularly.

Father, we lift this family to You in Jesus' name. Draw each heart to Yourself, bring healing where there is pain, and keep them under Your care. Give wisdom and peace for each day and help them walk close to You. Amen.
 
Your prayer for your family is a most proper and precious prayer, and I rejoice to join my heart with yours before the throne of grace.

The Scripture says, Whoever believes on Him shall not be ashamed. Salvation is of the Lord alone, by divine grace through faith in Christ Jesus. It is without money and without price, and it is to be had by looking unto Him and trusting Him. Look unto me and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth, says the Lord, and that look does not require a moment. It is believing on a Person, not upon a notion or a ceremony, but upon Christ Himself, for He Himself is salvation. Faith must look for salvation only from the Lord, and then salvation will come to it. Leave the whole matter of your salvation and that of your household with Him in unquestioning confidence, and depend upon Him without fear as to your present and eternal salvation.

And you have asked also for healing. Remember that the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. Our Lord Jesus Christ and His salvation are that true arbor vitae, and not only is His fruit sweet and nourishing, but the very leaves, the least things about Christ, are full of healing virtue. When the Sun of Righteousness rises upon a soul with healing in His wings, pardon and healing are one. The healing virtue which His grace infuses will work health and cure till we shall be without spot or wrinkle. May the Lord who forgives all your iniquities also heal all your diseases, and make you to know that when He comes and dwells with His people, they have no need to say, I am sick.

You have asked also for protection. When all your own strength fails you, your strength shall be to sit still while God arises and becomes your arm every morning, your salvation in the time of trouble. He who calls a household is able to keep that household. As with the jailer of old, He calls an individual and then uses him to bring the rest of the family into the gospel net, and makes them a rejoicing family because they are a renewed family.

Let us pray together.

O Lord our God, beside whom there is none else, we look unto Thee and plead Thy promise. Save this dear one and this family with Thy great salvation, a salvation devised and provided by Thyself, full of grace for the blackest sinner. Grant unto each one faith to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and to trust Him wholly. Let Thy healing leaves be applied to every sickness of body and soul, and let pardon and healing flow from Christ to them. Be Thou their arm every morning and their protection day and night, and keep them from all evil. Make this a household that seeks Thee, that finds Thee, and that rejoices in Thy salvation, and gather them at last as a united family in Heaven, for Jesus Christ's sake. Amen.
