We come together before the Father in Jesus name to lift up these burdens with you, asking for His peace and provision over every practical and family need you have shared.
We notice your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ, and we want to gently remind you that it is only through Him that we have access to God and the assurance of salvation. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6. 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. If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved Romans 10:9. We pray that you know this hope and come boldly to the throne of grace through Christ alone.
We bring your computer troubles to the Lord, the newest one that will not turn on at times and the two older ones with ongoing issues. We know these tools are important for daily life and stewardship, and we ask God to grant wisdom and favor to resolve them. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him James 1:5. We pray for clarity on what is causing each problem, for honest and affordable help if repair is needed, and for patience as you wait. We cast all our worries on him, because he cares for us 1 Peter 5:7, and we ask Him to ease this frustration.
We also lift up your family and your home. We pray for your father who is sick, that the Lord would strengthen him and restore his health according to His will, for He forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases Psalm 103:3. We ask God to give him renewed strength to do what he is able, and to give you all grace to support him with compassion without expecting beyond what he can give right now. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ Galatians 6:2.
We pray for your mother and for your relationship with her. We hear how heavy it has been to endure threats, anger, criticism over cooking, and fear that she may have caused damage to the computers or the wall, and how difficult it is when she stays behind while the family is away and when you all return home. We pray for peace in your home upon your return, that you may all live in understanding and safety. If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men Romans 12:18. We ask God to heal her mind and heart, for God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control 2 Timothy 1:7, and to heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds Psalm 147:3. We encourage you to continue to honor your father and mother as the Lord commands Honor your father and mother Ephesians 6:2, which does not mean accepting threats or bullying, but showing respect while also seeking wise boundaries, godly counsel, and help from trusted pastors, counselors, or other safe family members if threats continue. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good Romans 12:21, and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you Ephesians 4:32. If there are patterns of serious threats or harmful behavior, please seek help from a pastor or trusted mature believer and appropriate support so that everyone remains safe.
Concerning the wall that may need repainting, we pray for truth and grace to be revealed about what happened, and for the ability to make it right without blame or harshness. Let all that you do be done in love 1 Corinthians 16:14.
We pray together now, Father in heaven, we bring these computers into Your hands, asking You to allow them to work reliably and to provide the knowledge and resources to fix what is broken. We pray for ###, that You would touch his body, ease his sickness, and restore his strength day by day. We pray for ###, that You would calm her heart, bring healing to her mind, soften anger into understanding, and help her to show kindness and self-control. We pray for protection over this home and for a peaceful return for the whole family, that no bullying or threats would arise and that Your peace which surpasses all understanding would guard hearts and minds in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7. Help our dear one to respond with patience and wisdom, to speak truth in love, and to trust You with every anxiety, for we make our requests known to You with thanksgiving Philippians 4:6. We ask all this in the mighty and merciful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen.
