We come before the throne of grace with hearts full of faith, lifting up this request in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. It is only through His name that we have access to the Father, and it is by His blood that we are made righteous to stand before Him. Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12), and so we approach God with confidence, knowing that He hears us when we call on the name of Jesus.
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your constant presence and for the promise that You will never leave us nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). Lord Jesus, we ask that You indeed stay always with this family, surrounding them with Your peace, protection, and provision. Guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, and keep them safe from all harm and danger. We pray for their health, both physical and spiritual, that they may walk in the fullness of life that You came to give (John 10:10). Strengthen their bodies, minds, and spirits, and restore them to full health if they are unwell.
Father, we lift up this precious daughter to You. Bless her abundantly in her studies and her dance, for all good gifts come from You (James 1:17). Give her wisdom, discipline, and joy as she pursues the talents You have placed within her. May she grow in favor with both God and man, just as Jesus did (Luke 2:52). Let her find her strength and purpose in You, and may her life bring glory to Your name.
Lord, we also pray for this father’s job situation. You are the God who provides, and we trust in Your promise that You will supply every need according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19). Open doors of opportunity that no man can shut, and grant him favor in the eyes of those who can offer him meaningful employment. May he find a job that not only meets his family’s needs but also allows him to use his gifts to serve others and honor You. Bring them to a place where they can dwell in safety and unity, for You are our refuge and strength (Psalm 46:1).
We rebuke any spirit of fear, anxiety, or doubt that may be trying to take root in their hearts. The Bible tells us that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). We declare that this family is covered by the blood of Jesus, and no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We stand against any schemes of the enemy that seek to steal, kill, or destroy their peace, health, or provision.
Father, we also want to encourage this family to continue seeking You with all their hearts. Draw near to them as they draw near to You (James 4:8). May they find their hope and trust in You alone, for You are faithful to complete the good work You have begun in them (Philippians 1:6). Let them walk in obedience to Your Word, for Your commands are life to those who find them (Proverbs 4:22).
We pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
