We join with you in prayer before our heavenly Father and we thank you for calling upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to God and it is in His name that every prayer is heard and every chain is broken. We rejoice that you desire your parents to truly know the Lord and to hear His voice, for this is the very heart of God who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth, 1 Timothy 2:4, and who is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance, 2 Peter 3:9.
We pray together for your parents that God would open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, Acts 26:18. We ask the Lord to give them a new heart and put a new spirit within them, Ezekiel 36:26, to remove any hardness or blindness and to grant them repentance that leads to life. We pray they will hear the voice of the Shepherd, for Jesus said My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me, John 10:27, and that they will respond in faith and truly know Him as Savior and Lord.
We also stand with you and your family against every plan and deed and intention of the enemy. We know that our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places, Ephesians 6:12. Therefore we submit ourselves to God and resist the devil and he will flee from us, James 4:7. We declare that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world, 1 John 4:4, and that no weapon that is formed against you will prevail, Isaiah 54:17. We ask the Father to defeat every satanic scheme and to be mightily glorified in your lives and in your family, and to cover you under His protection as He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty, Psalm 91:1.
We pray also for you, that God will give you wisdom and protection and a clear way out in every situation according to His perfect will. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of the giving God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him, James 1:5. We ask that you will trust in the Lord with all your heart and not lean on your own understanding, and that He will direct your paths, Proverbs 3:5-6. We are confident that God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it, 1 Corinthians 10:13, and that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose, Romans 8:28.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and we lift up these dear parents to You, ask for a mighty encounter with the living Christ, for repentance and salvation and a true hearing of Your voice. We ask You to demolish every work of the enemy against this family and to let Your power and glory be seen. Grant wisdom, guidance, protection and Your way forward in every circumstance, and let Your will be done. We trust You to answer according to Your mercy and grace and we give You all the glory in Jesus name, amen.
