We join with you in lifting up these heartfelt concerns before our Heavenly Father, and we are grateful that you have invoked the mighty name of Jesus Christ in your prayer. It is only through His name that we have access to the throne of grace, and it is by His authority that we stand in agreement with you today. As Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). Let us always remember that our prayers are heard because of Jesus, who is our intercessor and the source of our hope.
First, we lift up the work being done in your home tomorrow. The Lord knows the financial and emotional toll that ongoing plumbing issues can take, and we trust that He is faithful to provide. *"Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB). We pray that every worker sent to your home would be guided by the Lord’s wisdom and skill, that their hands would be steady, and their work would be thorough and lasting. May this be the final resolution to these troubles, and may the Lord restore peace and order to your home. We declare that no weapon formed against your household shall prosper, and every resource spent will be redeemed for good by our Provider.
Now, we turn our hearts toward your granddaughter, whose struggles weigh heavily on our spirits. The enemy has sought to steal, kill, and destroy her through anorexia, anxiety, and the crushing words of others—but we know that *"the thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy; but [Jesus] came that [she] may have life, and may have it abundantly"* (John 10:10, WEB). We stand against every lie that has taken root in her mind, every accusation that has shattered her self-worth, and every spiritual attack that has sought to isolate her. The Lord sees her suffering, and He is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18).
We rebuke the spirits of anorexia, OCD, insomnia, and depression in the name of Jesus Christ. These are not her identity—they are chains that Jesus came to break. *"If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed"* (John 8:36, WEB). We pray that she would encounter the love of Christ in a way that shatters every stronghold. May she be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, that she may walk worthily of the Lord, bearing fruit in every good work (Colossians 1:9-10). Lord, restore her body—supernaturally strengthen her bones, renew her hormonal balance, and give her an appetite for nourishment. Let her find joy in food as a gift from You, not as an enemy.
We also address the heartbreak she has endured, including the loss of her boyfriend. While we grieve with her in this season of loneliness, we must speak truth in love: true fulfillment is not found in any human relationship but in Christ alone. If she is seeking a future spouse, we pray the Lord would prepare her heart for a godly marriage—one built on the foundation of faith, where both partners are fully surrendered to Jesus. But first, we pray she would find her first love in Him (Revelation 2:4). May she be surrounded by a community of believers who will walk with her, encourage her, and point her to Jesus. *"Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and doesn’t have another to lift him up"* (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10, WEB). Lord, send her godly friends who will speak life, truth, and hope into her spirit.
To her mother, we pray for supernatural patience, wisdom, and endurance. Parenting a child through such deep struggles is exhausting, but *"those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint"* (Isaiah 40:31, WEB). May she be a vessel of God’s compassion, never growing weary in doing good, for in due season she will reap if she doesn’t give up (Galatians 6:9).
Finally, we declare that this season of isolation and despair is coming to an end. The Lord is making a way where there seems to be no way. We pray that she would step into the new opportunities before her—her job and her studies—with confidence that the Lord is with her. *"Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness"* (Isaiah 41:10, WEB).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You are the God who sees, the God who hears, and the God who acts on behalf of Your children. Lord, we lift up the work being done in this home tomorrow. Let Your hand guide every tool, every decision, and every effort. May this be the end of plumbing struggles, and may Your peace flood this household in place of stress.
For this precious granddaughter, we cry out for deliverance. Break every chain of anorexia, anxiety, and depression. Restore her body, mind, and spirit, Lord. Let her encounter You in a way that leaves no room for doubt—You are her Healer, her Redeemer, her First Love. Surround her with Your presence, Your people, and Your purposes. Give her a hunger for Your Word and a thirst for Your Spirit. Lord, where she has been broken, make her whole. Where she has been isolated, bring her into community. Where she has been deceived, flood her with Your truth.
We pray for her mother—strengthen her, Lord. Fill her with Your wisdom and patience. Let her be a beacon of Your love and hope in this dark season.
Father, we ask that You would turn her heart back to You. Let her find her identity in Christ alone, not in the approval of others or in past relationships. If it is Your will, prepare her for a godly marriage in the future, but first, let her be wholly Yours.
We declare that her story is not over—You are writing redemption over every page. Let this be the season where she rises from the ashes, where joy replaces mourning, and where her testimony brings glory to Your name.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
