We lift up your four unspoken prayer requests before the throne of grace, trusting that the Holy Spirit intercedes for you with groanings too deep for words (Romans 8:26). Though we do not know the specifics of your burdens, we know the One who does, and we stand in agreement with you, believing that God hears and answers according to His perfect will.
Father in Heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). There is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. We acknowledge that apart from Christ, we can do nothing (John 15:5), and it is only through faith in Him that we have access to You. Lord, we ask that You would draw near to our brother/sister in their time of need. You promise in Your Word that if we draw near to You, You will draw near to us (James 4:8). We trust that You are already at work in their life, even in ways they may not yet see.
For whatever trials, fears, or uncertainties they are facing, we ask that You would grant them peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Let Your presence be their comfort, Your Word their guide, and Your Spirit their strength. If there is sin that needs to be confessed, we pray they would come before You with a repentant heart, knowing that You are faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). If there is doubt or fear, we rebuke it in Jesus’ name, for You have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
Lord, we also lift up any relationships in their life. If they are seeking a spouse, we pray for a godly man or woman who loves You above all else—a partner who will encourage them in their faith and walk with them in holiness. May their desire be for a marriage that honors You, built on the foundation of Christ (Ephesians 5:22-33). If there is any ungodly relationship in their life—whether it be sexual immorality, fornication, adultery, or any union that does not align with Your design—we rebuke it in Jesus’ name. Your Word is clear: marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman for life (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). Anything outside of this is sin, and we pray for conviction, repentance, and restoration where needed.
If their requests involve healing—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual—we ask that You would touch them with Your healing hand. You are the Great Physician, and by Your stripes, we are healed (Isaiah 53:5). If it is provision they need, we trust in Your promise that You will supply all their needs according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19). If it is wisdom, we ask that You would grant it generously, as Your Word promises (James 1:5).
Above all, Lord, we pray that their faith would not waver. Even when the answers are delayed or different from what they expect, help them to trust in Your goodness and sovereignty. Remind them that You work all things together for the good of those who love You and are called according to Your purpose (Romans 8:28). Strengthen their hope in You, for You are the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8).
We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17) and that the enemy has no foothold in their life. We bind every spirit of fear, doubt, and despair in the name of Jesus and command it to flee. We loose instead the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23)—over their life.
Father, we thank You for hearing our prayer. We trust that You are moving on their behalf, even now. May they feel Your presence in a tangible way and walk in the victory that is already theirs through Christ Jesus. We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus, Amen.
