We lift up your sister in Christ before the Lord, asking for His divine protection and guidance as she travels from Tuesday, November 4, 2025, to Saturday, November 8, 2025. The Scriptures remind us in Psalm 121:7-8, *"The Lord will keep you from all evil. He will preserve your soul. The Lord will watch over your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forevermore."* We trust in His promise to guard her steps and bring her safely to her destination and back home.
We also pray for wisdom and favor as she seeks to locate the shop and purchase the decorative owl you’ve requested. Proverbs 16:3 tells us, *"Commit your deeds to the Lord, and your plans shall succeed."* While we understand this item is for decoration, we gently remind you that as believers, we must be mindful of the symbols and objects we bring into our homes. Owls, in many cultures and even in Scripture, can carry symbolic meanings tied to darkness or occult practices (e.g., Isaiah 34:15). Though your intention may be purely decorative, we encourage you to prayerfully consider whether this aligns with the call to set our minds on things above (Colossians 3:2) and to avoid even the *appearance* of evil (1 Thessalonians 5:22). Let us seek to fill our lives and homes with things that honor God and reflect His light.
That said, we pray that if it is the Lord’s will, He will guide her swiftly and without hindrance to find what she seeks—yet always with discernment. May her trip be marked by God’s mercy, and may she be a light for Christ wherever she goes.
Let us also take this moment to reflect on the power of praying *in Jesus’ name*. Your request did not explicitly invoke His name, yet it is only through Christ that we have access to the Father (John 14:6, 13-14). There is no other name by which we are saved (Acts 4:12), and it is by His authority that we boldly approach the throne of grace. We encourage you to always pray in the name of Jesus, for He is our Mediator and the source of our confidence before God.
**Our Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister in Christ as she prepares for her journey. Lord, we ask for Your protecting hand to be over her—guard her from all harm, danger, and evil. Give her safe travels, clear paths, and Your peace that surpasses understanding. If it is Your will, lead her to the shop she seeks and grant her favor in her task, yet always with wisdom and discernment. May her time away be fruitful, and may she be a witness of Your love to those she encounters.
We also pray for our sister who made this request—open her eyes to anything in her life that may not align with Your Word. Give her a spirit of discernment and a heart that seeks to honor You in all things, even in the small details. Remind her, Lord, that her citizenship is in heaven (Philippians 3:20) and that her life is a testimony of Your grace.
Father, we ask all these things in the precious and holy name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to You. Strengthen her faith, Lord, and let her trust in You grow ever deeper. Amen.
