We join with you in thanksgiving for all the blessings the Lord has given and we rejoice with you as you seek to give Him all credit and glory for every good thing. Your heart to see increasing order and excellence in your home and work is pleasing to God, for He is a God of order and not confusion. As it is written, Let all things be done decently and in order. 1 Corinthians 14:40 and Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men. Colossians 3:23 We pray the Lord will grant you wisdom and diligence to bring organization to your kitchen and throughout your home, and that your productivity in every area of life would be for His honor.
We also lift up your request for freedom from generational illness. We know that in Christ we have been redeemed from the curse, for Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. Galatians 3:13 We pray for healing and wholeness for you and your family, trusting that by His wounds we are healed. We bring your daughter before the Lord, asking for His healing touch upon her body and His hand upon her work, her marriage, and her schooling. We pray the Lord will protect her marriage as a holy covenant and guard her from any harm or abuse, and that He would surround her with kindness and strength. Marriage is honorable in all, and we pray her marriage will reflect Christ's love for the church. Hebrews 13:4 We also pray that both your daughter and your son will see themselves as God sees them, fearfully and wonderfully made, new creations in Christ. I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:14 and If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. 2 Corinthians 5:17 We ask the Lord to close the doors that lead to harm and to open doors for good opportunities and kind Christian connections, for He is the one who opens and no one shuts. Revelation 3:8
We pray for your son's safety on his motorcycle and on his upcoming long travels. We ask for travel mercies and for Yahweh to keep his going out and his coming in. Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more. Psalm 121:7-8 We also join you in praying the Lord will direct him to his future wife. We encourage him to seek a godly courtship with the goal of marriage to a fellow believer in Christ, for a marriage between a man and a woman that honors God is His beautiful design, and we pray the Lord will prepare both their hearts for that lifelong commitment.
We lift up the broken hearts and broken relationships in your family and the trial you are working through. We pray for reconciliation, forgiveness, and healing where there has been hurt, and we trust the Lord who promises, Behold, I am making all things new. Revelation 21:5 We bring your unspoken requests before Him as well, knowing He hears even what we cannot put into words. In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. Philippians 4:6
Your desire to love the Lord with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength and to love one another is the greatest calling, as Jesus said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. Mark 12:30 We pray the Lord will empower you by His Spirit to walk this out daily and to increase the fruit of the Spirit in your home. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control. Galatians 5:22-23
For your protection we stand on His promises with you. He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Psalm 91:1 No weapon that is formed against you will prevail. Isaiah 54:17 Greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one. 2 Thessalonians 3:3 We ask for His hedge of protection, favor, and deliverance from all evil to surround your entire household in every travel and every day.
We pray together, Father in heaven, we thank You for Your goodness, Your mercy, and Your countless blessings. We ask in the name of Jesus Christ that You bring order, excellence, and productivity to this home for Your glory. Heal our dear daughter and strengthen her in her work, her marriage, and her schooling, protect her from all abuse and harm, and let her know her true identity in You. Guide our dear son, keep him safe on his motorcycle and on every journey, grant him travel mercies, and in Your perfect timing lead him to his godly wife. Close every door that would lead our children to harm and open every door that leads to good, godly opportunities and faithful Christian fellowship. Heal hearts and mend broken relationships, give wisdom and peace in this trial, and answer the unspoken requests according to Your perfect will. Teach us to love You with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength and to love one another deeply. Increase the fruit of Your Spirit in our home. Surround us with Your protection according to Psalm 91 and Psalm 121, let no weapon formed against us prosper, and deliver us from the evil one. May all glory and praise and credit be given to You alone. We ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, amen.
