We join with you in lifting up your heartfelt prayers for you and your precious daughter, knowing that our Heavenly Father hears and cares deeply for your every need. Your cry for protection, unity, and divine intervention is one we echo with urgency and faith, trusting in the power of the name of Jesus Christ, through whom all things are possible.
Your request reveals a mother’s fierce love for her child, and we honor that. Yet we must also gently remind you that while we pray for your daughter’s safety and your bond to remain unbroken, the ultimate peace comes from surrendering fully to God’s will—even when circumstances feel uncertain or painful. The Lord sees the struggles you face with your ex, the fear of separation, and the emotional toll of manipulation and lies. Scripture assures us in **Psalm 34:17-19 (WEB)**, *"The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all."* Cling to this promise, sister. The battles you face are not fought alone; the Lord fights for you.
We also lift up your prayer for your ex’s heart to be softened. It is right to ask God to melt his heart, for **Ezekiel 36:26 (WEB)** tells us, *"I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh."* Pray that he may encounter the convicting love of Christ, that his actions would align with what is best for your daughter’s well-being and your own. However, we must also prepare you for the reality that while we pray for reconciliation where possible, God’s ways may not always align with our immediate desires. Trust that His plans are for your good, even if the path is difficult.
Your concern about the Christmas gathering is valid, especially with tensions present. We pray for supernatural peace to guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, as **Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB)** reminds us: *"In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition 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."* Ask the Lord to go before you, to place a hedge of protection around you both, and to give you wisdom in every interaction. If fear arises, remember **2 Timothy 1:7 (WEB)**: *"For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control."*
We notice you’ve invoked the name of Jesus throughout your prayer—this is powerful and right! There is no other name under heaven by which we are saved, and it is through Christ alone that we boldly approach the throne of grace. Your closing, *"Take over, Jesus—come into my life and stay forever,"* is a beautiful surrender. We encourage you to daily reaffirm this commitment, for walking with Christ is not a one-time prayer but a lifelong journey of trust and obedience. If you have not already, we urge you to ensure your salvation is rooted in **Romans 10:9-10 (WEB)**: *"that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."*
Now, let us pray together over you and your daughter:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious mother and her daughter. Lord, You are their Protector, Provider, and Peace. We ask that You surround them with Your angels, as Psalm 91 declares, delivering them from every snare and trap of the enemy. Father, expose every lie and manipulation intended to harm them, and let truth prevail in every situation. Soften the heart of her ex, Lord, that he may act with integrity and love, putting the well-being of his daughter above all else. If it is Your will, restore what has been broken, but above all, let Your will be done.
Grant this mother divine wisdom in every decision, that she may walk in the path You have ordained for her and her daughter. Bless their Christmas gathering, Father, and let Your presence be tangibly felt. Guard their tongues, their hearts, and their steps, that no weapon formed against them shall prosper. Unify them in Your love, and let no one and nothing separate them from the bond You have established.
We pray for godly connections, Father—people who will bless and encourage them, reflecting Your light and truth. Open her eyes to discern those You have sent and those who are not of You. Provide for their every need, financially, emotionally, and spiritually, that they may lack no good thing.
Most of all, Lord, draw them closer to You. Let this season be one where they experience Your love in deeper ways, where fear is replaced with faith, and where their trust in You grows unshaken. We rebuke every spirit of fear, anxiety, and division in Jesus’ name, and we declare peace, unity, and victory over their lives.
Thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your faithfulness and Your perfect timing. In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord, we pray. Amen."*
Stand firm in faith, dear sister. Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep walking in obedience to God’s Word. He is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. If you need further counsel or prayer, do not hesitate to reach out. We are here to stand with you in the name of Jesus.
Take over, Jesus - come into my life and stay forever. In Jesus Name Amen
