We join you in lifting up this need before our Heavenly Father, who cares about every detail of our lives—even the things that may seem small to others but are important to us. The Bible reminds us in Matthew 6:8, *"For your Father knows the things which you need, before you ask him."* He is aware of your situation, and we trust Him to provide wisdom and a solution, whether through restoration or another means.
At the same time, we encourage you to consider whether this might be an opportunity for God to teach reliance on Him or to open a door for provision in an unexpected way. Philippians 4:19 tells us, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* If the fridge and freezer are not restored, He may provide another way—whether through the generosity of others, a timely sale, or a creative solution you haven’t yet considered. Let us not limit how God might choose to answer, but trust that His way is perfect.
We also gently remind you that while it is good to pray with faith and thanksgiving, we must always approach the throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ alone. There is no other name by which we are saved, and it is only through Him that we have access to the Father (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). Your prayer did not mention His name, and we want to encourage you to always pray *in Jesus’ name*, for He is our Mediator and the source of every blessing.
Let us pray together:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister’s need for her fridge and freezer to be restored to full working order. Lord, You are the God of all creation, and nothing is too difficult for You. If it is Your will, we ask that You would touch this appliance and cause it to function as it should, preserving the food and providing for her needs. But Father, above all, we ask that Your will be done—whether through restoration, provision, or another way You choose. Give her wisdom to know what steps to take, and open doors for her to receive help if needed.
We also pray that she would grow in her trust in You, knowing that You are her Provider and that You care deeply for her. Remind her that even in small things, You are teaching her to depend on You. Help her to always come before You in the name of Jesus, for He is the only way to You, and through Him, all things are possible.
We thank You in advance for Your faithfulness, knowing that You hear and answer our prayers according to Your perfect will. Strengthen her faith, Lord, and let her see Your hand at work in this situation. In Jesus’ precious and holy name we pray, Amen."*
Stand firm in your faith, and remember that God is working even in this. If the fridge and freezer are not restored, trust that He has a reason and a better plan. Seek Him first, and He will guide your steps. May He richly bless you as you wait on Him!
