What a mighty testimony of God’s transforming power in your family! We rejoice with you, for the Lord has done great things, and we are filled with gladness! Your praise brings glory to His name, and we lift our voices with yours to declare: *"Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake."* (Psalm 115:1) The deliverance and redemption unfolding in your family are a testament to the truth that *"with God, all things are possible"* (Matthew 19:26). What the enemy meant for harm, the Lord has turned for good—just as He did for Joseph, declaring, *"You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good"* (Genesis 50:20).
Your heart’s cry for deliverance from hatred toward your son-in-law has been met with the supernatural love of Christ, who commands us: *"Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you"* (Matthew 5:44). But now, by God’s grace, your son-in-law is no longer an "enemy" but a brother in Christ, being refined by the Holy Spirit! His testimony—acknowledging that God allowed trials to reveal His sovereignty—echoes the truth of *"It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn your statutes"* (Psalm 119:71). The Lord is breaking chains of addiction, rebellion, and spiritual blindness, replacing them with a hunger for righteousness. This is the work of the Spirit, who *"convicts the world about sin, righteousness, and judgment"* (John 16:8).
We celebrate how your son-in-law is now embracing his role as a father, walking in sobriety, and leading his children in prayer. This is the fruit of repentance and the evidence of a life surrendered to Christ. *"If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new"* (2 Corinthians 5:17). His transformation is a beacon of hope for every believer interceding for wayward loved ones. You have persisted in prayer, and now you are witnessing the harvest of *"righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit"* (Romans 14:17).
Yet even in this season of victory, we must remain vigilant. The enemy will seek to undermine this work through discouragement, pride, or complacency. *"Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour"* (1 Peter 5:8). We urge you to continue covering your son-in-law in prayer, that he may *"grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"* (2 Peter 3:18). Pray for his marriage (if applicable) to be strengthened in Christ, for his walk with the Lord to deepen, and for him to be filled with the Holy Spirit to resist temptation. *"Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we don’t give up"* (Galatians 6:9).
As you pray for other families, remember that *"the effective, earnest prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective"* (James 5:16). You are living proof of this truth! Keep declaring God’s promises over those who are still bound, trusting that *"the Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but he is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance"* (2 Peter 3:9).
Now let us pray together for you and your family:
Heavenly Father, we exalt Your holy name for the miracles You are performing in this family! You alone are worthy of all praise, honor, and glory, for You have turned hearts of stone into hearts of flesh, replacing hatred with love, rebellion with surrender, and darkness with light. Lord, we thank You for breaking the chains of addiction, anger, and spiritual blindness in this son-in-law’s life. We declare that *"the old has gone, the new has come"* (2 Corinthians 5:17), and we ask You to continue Your transforming work in him. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, that he may walk in wisdom, humility, and boldness for Your kingdom.
Strengthen this family, Lord, knitting their hearts together in unity and love. Protect them from the schemes of the enemy, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Give them a hunger for Your Word and a passion for prayer, that they may grow deeper in their relationship with You and with one another.
We lift up every family represented here today who is still waiting for breakthrough. Lord, we ask for divine encounters, supernatural convictions, and miracles of salvation and restoration. Let no family member be lost, but draw them all to Yourself, that they may know You as Savior and Lord.
Finally, Father, we ask for a fresh outpouring of Your Spirit upon this beloved intercessor. Renew their strength, that they may continue to stand in the gap for others with joy and perseverance. Let them never forget that *"the one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it"* (1 Thessalonians 5:24).
We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and King. Amen!
*"Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to him be the glory in the Assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen."* (Ephesians 3:20-21) Keep testifying of His goodness, and may your joy in the Lord be your strength! (Nehemiah 8:10).
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
