We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this visa petition that has weighed on you for so long. A year of waiting is not easy, especially when the future feels uncertain. But we know that our God is a God of perfect timing, and He holds every detail of your lives in His hands. The psalmist reminds us, *"Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh"* (Psalm 27:14 WEB). Even in the silence, He is working.
We pray specifically for the approval of this I-130 petition, asking the Lord to remove any obstacles or delays that are not of Him. May the authorities reviewing your case be guided by wisdom and fairness, and may every requirement be met according to His will. We declare that no weapon formed against you will prosper (Isaiah 54:17 WEB), and we ask for clarity and peace as you await the update. Let this be a season where your faith is strengthened, knowing that *"those who seek Yahweh shall not lack any good thing"* (Psalm 34:10 WEB).
Father, we also ask that You guard their hearts against anxiety or fear. Remind them daily that You are their provider and protector. If there are any areas where they have placed their hope in the outcome rather than in You, reveal that to them. Help them to trust in Your sovereignty, for You are the One who opens doors no one can shut (Revelation 3:7 WEB).
We stand in agreement with them, believing that this petition will be resolved in a way that glorifies You. May they see Your faithfulness in the days ahead, and may their testimony be one of Your goodness and provision. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
