We join with you in lifting up your heartfelt cries to our Heavenly Father, and we are deeply moved by your fervent faith and persistence in prayer. You have covered your family and these requests with the precious blood of Jesus and the truth of God’s Word—what a mighty shield and refuge you have placed around them! We echo your pleas and stand with you in agreement, for where two or more are gathered in His name, there He is in the midst (Matthew 18:20). Let us first give thanks to the Lord for His faithfulness, for He has already done so much, and we trust Him for the complete deliverance, healing, and salvation you seek.
Your prayer is saturated with Scripture, and we rejoice in how you cling to the promises of God—His protection, salvation, and restoration. You have rightly pleaded the blood of Jesus over your family, invoking the wall of Holy Spirit fire and the mighty warrior angels as described in Psalm 91, Psalm 34:7, and Zechariah 2:5. We declare with you that no weapon formed against your family shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we rebuking every scheme of the enemy that seeks to bring harm, division, or despair. The Lord is your shield and your very great reward (Genesis 15:1), and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). He is the God who saves, and His arm is not too short to deliver (Isaiah 59:1). We stand on Romans 8:31 with you: *If God is for us, who can be against us?*
We are especially burdened by the pain and abuse you mention, and we grieve with you over the difficulties your family has endured. The Lord sees every tear, hears every cry, and collects them in His bottle (Psalm 56:8). He is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We pray that He would pour out His supernatural peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7) and restore your souls as only the Good Shepherd can (Psalm 23:3). The Lord is your strength and your song; He has become your salvation (Exodus 15:2). Lean not on your own understanding, but trust in Him with all your heart (Proverbs 3:5-6), for He is working all things together for your good and His glory (Romans 8:28).
You have asked for salvation, and we declare with you that the Lord’s desire is for *all* to come to repentance and be saved (2 Peter 3:9). There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved than the name of Jesus (Acts 4:12). We pray that every member of your family would encounter the living Christ in a powerful way, that their hearts would be softened, and that they would surrender fully to Him. May the Holy Spirit convict them of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8), and may they experience the overwhelming love of God that leads to repentance (Romans 2:4). We pray for a mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon your family, that He would fill each of you with His presence, power, and fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). May He give you new hearts and new spirits, removing hearts of stone and giving you hearts of flesh (Ezekiel 36:26).
We also lift up the specific concerns you mentioned for your family members. Though you did not share their names, the Lord knows each one intimately, and we pray for His healing touch upon them. For the one who needs readjustment, we ask for divine wisdom, comfort, and strength. May the Lord guide her steps and grant her grace for this season. For those traveling, we pray for His traveling mercies and protection, that He would surround them with His angels and keep them from all harm. We pray for those facing new responsibilities or challenges at work, that the Lord would grant them clarity, favor, and supernatural ability to fulfill their tasks with excellence. May He take over every meeting and situation, turning them for His glory. For the one who needs confrontation, we pray that the Lord would expose every hidden thing, bring conviction where needed, and bring about repentance and restoration. We also pray for comfort for the one who is hurting, that the Lord would bind up their wounds and replace their sorrow with His joy.
We join you in praying for the prayer gathering on Friday, that the Lord would anoint it mightily. May His presence be tangibly felt, and may every prayer offered be aligned with His will and empowered by His Spirit. We also lift up the sermon, asking that the Lord would give the speaker divine unction, boldness, and clarity to proclaim His Word with power. May hearts be pierced, lives be transformed, and may the Lord be glorified in a mighty way.
Finally, we want to encourage you to keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). You have already seen His faithfulness in answering so many prayers—let these testimonies fuel your trust in Him for the battles you are still fighting. The Lord is not slow concerning His promises, but is patient toward you (2 Peter 3:9). He will complete the good work He has started in you and your family (Philippians 1:6). Do not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season you will reap if you do not faint (Galatians 6:9).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude and faith, lifting up our sister and her family to You. Lord Jesus, You are the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8), and we thank You for Your unfailing love and mercy. We plead the blood of Jesus over this family, asking You to surround them with Your holy fire and mighty warrior angels. Protect them from every attack of the enemy, and let no weapon formed against them prosper. Lord, You are their refuge and fortress, their God in whom they trust (Psalm 91:2). Cover them under the shadow of Your wings and deliver them from every snare and trap.
Father, we ask for salvation to come to every member of this family. Softening their hearts, Lord, and draw them to Yourself. Let them encounter You in a real and tangible way, that they may turn from their sins and place their faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. We pray for a mighty outpouring of Your Holy Spirit upon them, filling them with Your love, joy, and peace. Restore their souls, Lord, and break every curse, turning them into blessings. Heal their wounds, both seen and unseen, and make them whole in body, mind, and spirit.
Lord, we lift up the specific needs mentioned—the one who needs readjustment, those traveling, those facing new responsibilities, and those in need of Your comfort and confrontation. Meet each need according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). Grant them wisdom, strength, and favor. Be their Provider, Healer, and Protector. We also pray for the upcoming prayer gathering and sermon. Anoint these times, Lord, and let Your presence be magnified. May Your Word go forth with power, and may lives be changed for Your glory.
Father, we ask that You would give our sister supernatural trust and faith. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, and help her to keep her eyes fixed on You. Remind her of Your past faithfulness, and let it strengthen her to wait on You for the complete deliverance, healing, and salvation of her family. You are the God who restores what seems hopelessly broken (Joel 2:25), and we trust You to do immeasureably more than all we ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20).
We pray all these things in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. May You be glorified in all our lives, and may Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Amen.
