We hear the heaviness in your heart and we are standing with you in prayer for your family during this hard time. We lift up your two sons, your nephews, your sisters, your mother and your whole family and everyone connected to you, asking our Father to be near to each of you, to cover you with His presence and to carry you through this season. We know what it is to feel overwhelmed, and we take comfort that God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble Psalm 46:1. He has promised Be strong and courageous. Don't be afraid nor scared, for Yahweh your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you Deuteronomy 31:6, and again Don't you be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness Isaiah 41:10.
We encourage you to cast all your worries on Him, because He cares for you 1 Peter 5:7, and to bring everything to Him in prayer. 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 Philippians 4:6-7. Even when we do not understand why the hard time has come, we trust that God works all things together for good for those who love Him Romans 8:28, and that He is with you wherever you go Joshua 1:9.
We noticed your request asks for God to be with you but does not mention the name of Jesus, and we want to gently share that it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father. Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6. There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. 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 Romans 10:9. It is by trusting in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection for us, that we can come boldly before God and know that He hears our prayers. We encourage you to call upon His name and to put your hope fully in Him.
We seek God's will together in Jesus' name and we pray for you now. Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and we lift up this family to You. Lord, You see the hard time they are walking through, You know every detail, every worry and every need. We ask You to be present with them in a powerful way, to let them feel Your nearness and Your comfort. We pray for the two sons and the nephews, guard them and guide them, keep them in Your care and draw them closer to You. We pray for the sisters and the mother, strengthen them, give them peace and uphold them with Your righteous hand. We pray for the whole family and everyone connected to them, that You would bring unity, healing, provision and hope. Replace fear with faith and anxiety with Your peace that surpasses understanding. Help them to trust You more each day, to seek You in Your Word and in prayer, and to rest in Your unfailing love. We ask all this in the precious and saving name of Jesus, amen.

Thank you for bringing your whole family before the Lord. We can hear how much you love your sons, your nephews, your sisters and your mother, and how heavy it has felt to carry all of them in your heart at once. Wanting God to simply be with you all is such an honest and good prayer.
When a whole family is under strain it is easy to feel you have to hold everyone together yourself. You do not have to do that alone. One thing that often steadies families in a hard stretch is having a few other people who know by name what you are walking through and are checking in regularly.
If it would help, consider choosing one trusted pastor, friend or small group from your church and letting them know specifically how to pray for your sons, your sisters and your mother in the coming weeks, and asking if you can update them. Even a short weekly text or a brief prayer together can make the burden feel less isolated. If your family is nearby, a simple time to pray together, even for just a few minutes, can also remind everyone you are facing this together with God.
We lift you before Him now.
Father, in Jesus name we bring this family to You. You know each son, each nephew, each sister and their mother by name and You see what they are carrying right now. Draw near to them, give them peace, wisdom and strength for each day, and help them to feel Your presence with them. Keep them close to You and to each other. Amen.

Spurgeon
Beloved of All
Your burdened cry for your family has been heard, and we bow before the Lord with you and for you, for your two sons, your nephews, your sisters, your mother and all your household in this hard time.
Men need comfort because they are but men, and your soul now feels how frail and pressed you are. Yet hear what the Lord Himself has said, I will comfort you. When He undertakes the work, then the soul shall be satisfied even out of poor earthen vessels, for it must be God's work. He says also, Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. This is not a comfort from the word of man, which is doubtful and ineffectual, but comfort from the mouth of God Himself, and we pray you may not rest satisfied until you get the truth from His own mouth and find Him to be your comfort indeed.
The comfort which God gives will suit your present place and position. Even where the furnace is hottest, for His fire is in Zion and His furnace in Jerusalem, even there shall you have your comfort. Your difficulties are not beyond His hand. There was not a single blast of the tempest but Jehovah's might had sent it, nor a single wave that rose but by His permission, and all remain in the hands of the All Powerful One to restrain or direct according to His own will. Therefore fly to this comfort with speed in every time of trouble and get to be familiar with God's Word, for this is my comfort in my affliction, says the Psalmist, God's own Word. Many get a comfort out of religious exercises but can hardly tell what it is, but true comfort is inward, when the promise is applied with power and the Word quickens the soul. You need to pray earnestly over the Word, that it may quicken you, or otherwise it will not be a comfort to you.
Remember also that the place of comfort is often the assembly of God's people. Therefore live not forsaking the assembling of yourselves together, as the manner of some is. Do not expect God to comfort you at your house while you refuse to seek Him in His house. Go where His people meet, where His Word is opened, and there look for Him to speak peace to your heart.
We pray that our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and God even our Father, would comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work, for comfort alone is not enough and constancy without comfort will not suffice. May the Holy Spirit lay home to your heart the fact of your new birth and your adoption into the family of God, for if you belong to His family you shall never be cast out of it. What a plea this is in prayer, My Father, will You not comfort my heart, will You let Your child despond, will You not relieve me in the hour of my distress. He knows all things, every sorrow and every sin and every need, and the blood of Jesus Christ His dear Son cleanses us from all sin.
Do not in the time of trouble increase it by being unwilling to be comforted when right comfort is presented to you from God. Trust Him now.
We pray for you thus, O Lord our Father, look upon this family now tried and pressed. You know all things, You know the names and needs of these sons and nephews, these sisters and this mother, and every one of this household. Comfort them as one whom his mother comforts, and let Your Word quicken them and sustain them. Establish them and keep them from fear, and bring them to trust wholly in the Lord Jesus Christ through whom alone is salvation. Give them grace to seek You in Your Word and among Your people, and to find in You a present help. In the name of Jesus Christ our hope we ask it, Amen.

We pray for you thus, O Lord our Father, look upon this family now tried and pressed. You know all things, You know the names and needs of these sons and nephews, these sisters and this mother, and every one of this household. Comfort them as one whom his mother comforts, and let Your Word quicken them and sustain them. Establish them and keep them from fear, and bring them to trust wholly in the Lord Jesus Christ through whom alone is salvation. Give them grace to seek You in Your Word and among Your people, and to find in You a present help. In the name of Jesus Christ our hope we ask it, Amen.
