We join with you in lifting up your daughters, your son, and your entire family before the Lord, knowing that He hears the cries of His children and acts on their behalf. Your heart for your family is evident, and we stand with you in agreement, declaring God’s protection, provision, and restoration over every area of your lives. You have prayed with great faith, and we echo your petitions, adding our voices to yours in the mighty name of Jesus.
First, we rejoice that you have brought these requests before the Lord *in Jesus’ name*, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. As Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is by His name alone that we are saved, and it is in His name that we boldly approach the throne of grace. Your reliance on Jesus in this prayer is a testament to your faith, and we encourage you to continue seeking Him in all things, for *"apart from me, you can do nothing"* (John 15:5, WEB).
We lift up your daughters to the Lord, asking that He would surround them with His favor as with a shield (Psalm 5:12). May they experience breakthrough and victory in their work and studies today, and may the Lord open doors of opportunity that no man can shut (Revelation 3:8). We plead the blood of Jesus over them, from the crowns of their heads to the soles of their feet, declaring that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). May the Lord dispatch His ministering angels to encamp around them, guarding them in all their ways (Psalm 91:11). We pray for divine health and safety, that they would walk in the fullness of God’s promises, unshaken by the schemes of the enemy.
Your prayer for godly spouses for your daughters aligns with the heart of God, who desires for His children to enter into covenants that reflect His holiness and love. We declare that the Lord will bring men of God into their lives—men who fear the Lord, walk in integrity, and will lead your daughters in righteousness (Proverbs 31:30, Ephesians 5:25-27). May your daughters wait patiently on the Lord, trusting in His perfect timing and not settling for anything less than His best. Remind them of the beauty of a marriage founded on Christ, where two become one flesh in a covenant blessed by God (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:6). Encourage them to guard their hearts and their bodies, for their bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20), and sexual purity is a gift to be cherished until marriage.
Now, we must address with love but also with urgency the situation involving your older daughter. Beloved, it grieves our hearts to hear that she is living with a man outside of marriage, for this is not the will of God. Scripture is clear: *"Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed is undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). Living together outside of marriage is fornication, and it opens the door to spiritual, emotional, and even financial exploitation—exactly what you have described in this young man’s behavior. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), and he often uses ungodly relationships to do so.
We rebuked the spirit of greed and manipulation operating through this young man. The Lord sees his actions, and He will not allow your daughter to be exploited indefinitely. However, we must also speak truth in love to your daughter: she is enabling this behavior by remaining in a relationship that dishonors God. The Lord desires to free her from this bondage, but she must choose repentance and obedience. Pray that the Holy Spirit would convict her heart and give her the strength to walk away from this sinful arrangement. Remind her that *"the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"* (Romans 6:23, WEB). There is grace and forgiveness in Christ, but it requires turning away from sin and aligning with God’s Word.
Encourage her to seek the Lord’s face, to surrender this relationship to Him, and to trust that He has a better plan for her life—one that includes a godly husband who will cherish her as Christ cherishes the Church (Ephesians 5:29). If she is a believer, remind her that her body is not her own, for she was bought with a price (1 Corinthians 6:20). If she is not yet saved, pray that this situation would drive her to the cross, where she can find true freedom and redemption.
We also pray for restoration in your family, that the bonds of love, respect, and unity would be strengthened by the Holy Spirit. Forgiveness is key, beloved. Bitterness and resentment have no place in a home where Christ dwells. *"Be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you"* (Ephesians 4:32, WEB). May your home be a sanctuary of peace, a refuge where the presence of the Lord is tangibly felt. We declare that joy, laughter, and the fruit of the Spirit would abound in your household, and that your family would be a beacon of light in your community, reflecting the love and grace of Jesus Christ.
Regarding your finances, we stand in agreement with you that the Lord is your provider. He sees the greed of this young man, and He will not allow your daughter’s resources—or yours—to be stolen. *"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not lack"* (Psalm 23:1, WEB). We declare that every financial stronghold is broken in Jesus’ name, and that the Lord will restore what has been taken (Joel 2:25). Trust in His promise: *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:19, WEB).
Finally, we pray for an unbreakable bond between you, your daughters, your son, and their future spouses—one that is rooted in Christ and surpasses all understanding. May the Lord knit your hearts together in love, and may your family be a testimony of His faithfulness.
**Let us pray:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this family to Your throne of grace. Lord, we thank You for Your goodness and mercy, which endure forever. We ask that You would surround these daughters with Your favor today, granting them breakthrough and victory in their work and studies. Send Your ministering angels to encamp around them, protecting them from all harm and leading them in the paths of righteousness.
Father, we pray for godly spouses for these young women—men who fear You, love Your Word, and will lead them in holiness. Give them patience to wait on Your timing, and guard their hearts from settling for anything less than Your perfect will. Lord, we speak life into their future marriages, that they would be covenants blessed by You, reflecting Your love and glory.
We address the situation with the older daughter, Father. We ask that You would open her eyes to the sin of living with this man outside of marriage. Convict her heart, Lord, and give her the strength to repent and walk away from this ungodly relationship. Break the chains of greed and manipulation that this young man has placed upon her, and restore what has been stolen. Father, if she does not know You, draw her to salvation through this trial. If she is Your child, remind her of her identity in Christ and the call to holiness.
We pray for restoration in this family—healing for broken relationships, unity in the Spirit, and a home filled with Your peace and joy. Let forgiveness and grace abound, and may this home be a sanctuary where Your presence dwells richly. Protect their finances, Lord, and provide for every need according to Your riches in glory.
We declare that no weapon formed against this family shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn. May they be a beacon of light in their community, reflecting the love and grace of Jesus Christ. Bind them together with an unbreakable bond, rooted in You and Your Word.
Father, we thank You for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your faithfulness, knowing that You are working all things together for their good and Your glory. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
