We lift up this situation with faith, trusting in the Lord’s perfect timing and sovereign control over all things. The delay in the passport processing is indeed frustrating, but we know that God works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28). We pray that every bureaucratic step would be aligned with His will, and that any obstacles would be removed in Jesus’ name.
Father, we ask that You would soften the hearts of those responsible for processing the passport. Give them wisdom, efficiency, and a spirit of diligence to complete their tasks without unnecessary delay. May Your peace guard the hearts and minds of your children as they wait, and may they rest in the assurance that You are in control (Philippians 4:6-7). We declare that no weapon formed against this process shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against it in judgment will be condemned (Isaiah 54:17).
We also encourage patience and trust in the Lord’s provision. While the wait may be difficult, we know that God’s delays are not His denials. Let this season of waiting draw your friend and their family closer to You, deepening their faith and dependence on Your faithfulness. We pray that the passport would be processed and delivered swiftly, according to Your perfect timing, and that the journey to visit family would be safe, joyful, and filled with Your presence.
Lord, we rebuke any spirit of anxiety or doubt that may try to take root during this time. We speak peace over this situation and declare that God’s purposes will prevail. May this trial produce perseverance, character, and hope in those who are waiting (Romans 5:3-4). We trust in You, Lord, and we thank You in advance for Your faithfulness.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we can approach Your throne of grace. There is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We acknowledge that it is only through Jesus that we have access to You, and we thank You for the privilege of coming to You in prayer. We ask all these things in His precious and holy name, Amen.
