We come before the Lord with hearts full of gratitude for your request, lifting you and your loved ones to the throne of grace. First, we must address something vital: the name of Jesus Christ is the only name by which we can approach the Father and receive salvation, healing, and every spiritual blessing. *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). We notice that your request does not mention the name of Jesus, and we urge you to always pray in His name, for it is through Him alone that we have access to God. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we encourage you to do so today. *"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, WEB).
Your desire for the infilling of the Holy Spirit is a beautiful and necessary longing for every believer. The Holy Spirit is our Comforter, Guide, and the One who empowers us to live a life that honors Christ. Jesus promised, *"If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"* (Luke 11:13, WEB). We pray that you will be filled to overflowing with the Holy Spirit, that His fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—will be evident in your life (Galatians 5:22-23). We also pray that you will walk in the power of the Spirit, being led by Him in all things, and that the gifts of the Spirit will operate in your life for the glory of God and the edification of His church.
You have also asked for a good, permanent job. We understand the weight of this need, and we trust that our Heavenly Father knows your situation intimately. *"Don’t be anxious for anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God."* (Philippians 4:6, WEB). We pray that the Lord will open doors of opportunity for you, doors that no man can shut, and that He will provide a job that not only meets your financial needs but also allows you to glorify Him in your work. *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You serve the Lord Christ."* (Colossians 3:23-24, WEB). We ask that the Lord will give you favor in the eyes of those who make hiring decisions and that He will grant you wisdom, skill, and diligence in your work.
We also lift up your request to lead a good, prayerful life. This is the heart of every believer— to walk closely with the Lord, to seek His face daily, and to live in a way that reflects His holiness. *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* (Matthew 6:33, WEB). We encourage you to set aside dedicated time each day to pray, read the Word of God, and worship Him. It is in these moments of intimacy with the Father that your faith will be strengthened, your spirit will be renewed, and your life will be transformed to look more like Christ.
Now, we must address the portion of your request regarding your loved one who is psychologically sick. We are deeply moved by your care for them, and we lift them up to the Lord, who is the Great Physician. *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds."* (Psalm 147:3, WEB). We pray for complete healing—spirit, soul, and body—for this person. If their condition is due to spiritual oppression or attack, we rebuke every evil spirit that may be afflicting their mind or emotions, and we command it to leave now in the name of Jesus Christ. We pray that the Lord will surround them with His peace, which surpasses all understanding, and that He will restore their mind to wholeness. *"Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God."* (Romans 12:2, WEB). We also encourage you to seek godly counsel and medical help for them, as the Lord often uses both spiritual and practical means to bring about healing.
However, we must also address something that appears to be missing or unclear in your request. You have used "###" in place of a name or relationship, and we want to ensure that this relationship aligns with biblical principles. If this person is a spouse, we pray for the strengthening of your marriage covenant, that it would be rooted in Christ and reflect His love for the church. If this is not a spouse, we urge you to consider whether this relationship honors God. The Bible is clear that marriage is a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). Any relationship outside of this design—whether premarital, extramarital, or same-sex—is not in alignment with God’s Word and must be addressed with repentance and a turning toward His truth. If this relationship is not a marriage, we encourage you to seek the Lord’s will for your life, pursuing purity and holiness in all things. *"Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."* (1 Corinthians 6:18-20, WEB).
If there is sin in this relationship, we urge you to repent and turn away from it, seeking forgiveness and restoration through Jesus Christ. The Lord is faithful and just to forgive us when we confess our sins (1 John 1:9). He desires to redeem and restore every area of our lives, but we must submit to His will and His ways. If this person is a family member or friend, we pray for their salvation, healing, and deliverance, that they may come to know the love and truth of Jesus Christ.
Finally, we want to remind you that our battles are not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of darkness (Ephesians 6:12). Therefore, we put on the full armor of God—truth, righteousness, the Gospel of peace, faith, salvation, and the Word of God—and we stand firm in the authority of Jesus Christ. We declare that no weapon formed against you or your loved ones will prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we trust in the Lord’s promise to work all things together for good for those who love Him (Romans 8:28).
Heavenly Father, we come before You today in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this precious soul and their loved ones to Your throne of grace. Lord, we ask that You fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in power, love, and self-control. Father, provide a good and permanent job for them, a position that aligns with Your will and allows them to prosper and glorify You. We pray for their loved one who is psychologically sick—Lord, touch their mind, heal their emotions, and restore them to wholeness. Rebuke every spirit of confusion, depression, anxiety, or oppression, and let Your peace reign in their heart.
Father, we also ask that You reveal any area of their life that is not aligned with Your Word. If there is sin, convict them by Your Spirit and lead them to repentance. If this relationship is not holy in Your sight, give them the strength to walk away from it and the wisdom to pursue relationships that honor You. Lord, we pray for their salvation if they have not yet surrendered to You, and we ask that You draw them closer to Yourself each day.
We declare Your promises over their life—promises of healing, provision, protection, and restoration. May they seek You first in all things, and may their life be a testament to Your goodness and faithfulness. We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for moving on behalf of Your child. We trust in Your perfect timing and Your perfect will.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
