What a beautiful and heartfelt prayer for your family! We join you in lifting these petitions before our Heavenly Father, knowing that He delights in the prayers of His children when we come to Him in the name of Jesus. Your request is deeply aligned with Scripture, and we are encouraged by your desire to walk in His will as a family.
The Lord commands us in Deuteronomy 6:5 to “love Yahweh your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might,” and Jesus reaffirms this in Matthew 22:37 as the greatest commandment. Your prayer reflects this devotion, and we praise God for your family’s hunger to live fully for Him. The call for salvation, protection, and healing is also rooted in His promises. Psalm 91:14-16 reminds us that God delivers those who love Him, and James 5:15 assures us that “the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up.”
We also take note of your plea for closer relationships *in Christ*—this is vital. True unity in a family is only possible when each member is submitted to Jesus as Lord. Ephesians 4:2-3 urges us to walk “with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” If there are any divisions, unresolved conflicts, or bitterness in your family, we encourage you to address them with love and truth, seeking reconciliation through Christ (Matthew 5:23-24). Forgiveness and humility are the glue that holds a godly family together.
As for deliverance from evil, we stand with you against the schemes of the enemy. 1 Peter 5:8-9 warns us to “be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith.” Put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18) and resist the devil, and he *will* flee from you (James 4:7). We also encourage you to fill your home with the Word of God, worship, and prayer—these are powerful tools against darkness.
Now, let us pray together for your family:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with thankful hearts for this family who seeks Your face. Lord, we ask that You draw each member closer to Yourself, that they may love You with all their hearts, souls, and minds. Strengthen their faith and fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in obedience and joy. Save those who have not yet surrendered to Jesus, Father—open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel and soften their hearts to receive Your grace. Protect this family from the snares of the enemy; let no weapon formed against them prosper. Heal their bodies, minds, and spirits, Lord, and bind them together in unity through Your love.
We rebuke any spirit of division, strife, or darkness that may be lurking in their home. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we command satan to flee, and we declare that this family is covered by the blood of the Lamb. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Raise them up as a light in this world, a testimony of Your goodness and faithfulness.
Father, we ask these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
Finally, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord *together* as a family. Read Scripture aloud in your home, pray over one another, and worship as one. The Lord honors families who prioritize Him, and He will surely pour out His blessings upon you as you remain faithful. Stay steadfast, and trust that He who began a good work in you will complete it (Philippians 1:6). God bless you!
