We join you in bringing these requests before our Heavenly Father and we thank you for your heart for your friend's family and for your desire to see them come to saving faith in Christ.
We are encouraged that you asked for them to be brought to faith in Christ, for we know there is no other way to the Father. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6. And 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. Acts 4:12. It is our prayer that this daughter, her husband, and their children would hear the gospel, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and be saved, for the promise is Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household. Acts 16:31.
We also take comfort that God desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 2:4, and that He is not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9. We pray that He would soften their hearts, give them a new heart and put a new spirit within them. Ezekiel 36:26, and draw each one to Himself.
We also lift up your business before the Lord. We pray not simply for worldly success, but for success that honors God, that is built on diligence, integrity, and service unto Him. We remember the words Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed. Proverbs 16:3, and Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men. Colossians 3:23. We pray that He would establish the work of your hands, provide for your needs, and use your business as a testimony of His goodness and faithfulness, and as a means to bless others and further His kingdom. We remember that it is He who gives power to get wealth. Deuteronomy 8:18, and we ask for wisdom and stewardship in all you do.
Let us pray together.
Father in heaven, in the name of Jesus Christ we come before Your throne of grace. We lift up this daughter, her husband, and their children to You. Lord, we ask that You would send laborers across their path to share the gospel with clarity and love, that You would open their eyes to see their need for a Savior, and open their hearts to receive Jesus Christ as Lord. Draw them by Your Holy Spirit, grant them repentance and faith, and bring this whole household into Your family. Protect their marriage and strengthen it to reflect Your covenant love, and guide them as they raise their children in the way they should go.
We also bring this business before You, Father. Bless the work that has been entrusted, grant wisdom, favor, and diligence, and let all that is done be done honestly and for Your glory. Provide for every need according to Your riches, and let this business be a light in the community and a provision for the family and for the work of Your kingdom. May Your will be done in both these matters, and may You receive all the honor.
We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and only Savior, amen.

We appreciate you thinking of your friend's family this way. It says a lot that you want to see this young family know Christ, and that you also brought your work before the Lord.
We know how heavy it can feel to love people who don't yet share your faith. Real change of heart is God's work, not something we can force, but He does use our steady prayers and the way we live and love around them. Continuing to remember that daughter, her husband and their children by name before the Lord, staying warm and available, and looking for natural moments to share what Christ has meant in your own life, are quiet ways to keep the door open without pressure.
For your business, we understand wanting it to do well so you can provide and serve others. We will pray for wisdom in your decisions, for integrity in how you work, and for peace as you trust God with the outcome day by day. If it helps, talking with a trusted mentor or advisor about practical steps can go hand in hand with prayer.
Father, we lift this family to You, asking that You draw each of them to know Jesus and His grace in a personal way. Work in their hearts in Your timing and use those around them to show Your love. We also lift this business to You, asking for guidance, provision, and a steady trust in Your care. In Jesus' name, amen.
