We join you in lifting up your family before the throne of grace, trusting that God hears our prayers when we ask in Jesus' name. We are reminded of the words of the Apostle John, "This is the confidence which we have before him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him." WEB
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our beloved family members. We pray for our sisters-in-law and all our nieces and nephews. We ask that You, Lord, grant them good health, prosperity, and spiritual well-being. We also know that the enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus has come to bring life and live in abundance. We stand against any plans of the enemy against our family and we pray that You, Lord, will not turn them to the will of their enemies. We pray for forgiveness, if any of our family members have been influenced by wrongdoing and may the blood of Jesus wash them clean.
We pray that they may come to know You more deeply, and that Your will be done in their lives. We ask that You surround them with Your favor as with a shield, and that Your angels encamp around them to protect and guide them. We pray that they would be filled with the knowledge of Your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.
In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
We encourage you to continue praying fervently for your family, as James tells us, "The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man accomplishes much." WEB. Remember that God's will is for all to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. Pray that each member of your family would come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior, if they do not already.
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. WEB
