We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up your precious daughter to the Lord, who loves her even more than you do. Your prayer is filled with love, concern, and a deep desire to see her restored to the safety and peace of her family and, most importantly, to a right relationship with God. We stand with you in agreement, declaring that the Lord is her refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).
Father God, we ask that You would indeed lead this dear daughter home quickly and safely. Break every chain, remove every barrier—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual—that is keeping her from returning to the loving arms of her family. We rebuke the lies of the enemy that may be telling her she is unworthy, that she has gone too far, or that she cannot come back. The truth is that Your mercy is new every morning, and Your compassions never fail (Lamentations 3:22-23). We declare that she is not returning in shame, but in the peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). She is not returning in fear, but in the perfect love of Christ that casts out all fear (1 John 4:18).
Lord, we ask that You would restore her faith, hope, and trust in You. Open her eyes to see the destructive path she has been on, not to condemn her, but to lead her to repentance and healing. Give her the courage to turn away from the chaos and choose the life, order, and wholeness that only You can provide. We pray specifically about the young man mentioned in this situation. Father, if this relationship is not aligned with Your will—if it is leading her away from You, from purity, or from the path of righteousness—we ask that You would sever those ties in Your mercy. If there is any ungodly influence, any sin, or any bondage in this relationship, we rebuke it in the name of Jesus. We declare that she will not ignore the red flags, but that Your Holy Spirit will give her discernment and the strength to walk away from anything that does not honor You.
We also lift up her need for employment. Father, You are the God who provides, and we ask that You would open doors for her to find a job that will support her as she rebuilds her life. Give her favor with employers, wisdom in her decisions, and the skills she needs to succeed. We declare that she is coming home with provision, just as You promised in Philippians 4:19: "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."
We want to gently address the importance of ensuring that any future relationships she pursues are grounded in Your Word. If she is not already married, we encourage her to seek a spouse who is a fellow believer, one who will lead her closer to You, not away from You. The Bible is clear that we are not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14). Marriage is a sacred covenant, and it is meant to reflect Christ’s love for the Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). If she is in a relationship that does not honor You, we pray that she would have the courage to end it, trusting that You have someone far better for her if marriage is Your plan for her life.
Father, we also pray for your protection over her mind and heart. Guard her from the enemy’s attacks, from feelings of guilt or unworthiness, and from any temptation to return to old patterns. Fill her with Your peace, surround her with Your angels, and let her know that she is deeply loved—not just by her family, but by You. We declare that she is coming home, and that when she does, she will be welcomed with open arms, with no condemnation, but with the love and grace that only You can give.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of hope and faith, trusting in Your power to restore and redeem. We lift up this precious daughter to You, asking that You would draw her home with cords of love. Break every chain, remove every obstacle, and silence every lie that is keeping her from returning. Restore her faith, her hope, and her trust in You. Open her eyes to see the truth, and give her the courage to walk away from anything that does not align with Your will.
Lord, we ask that You would surround her with Your protection. Let her feel Your presence in a tangible way, reminding her that she is never alone. Provide for her needs, open doors for her employment, and give her favor in all that she does. If there is any ungodly relationship in her life, we ask that You would sever those ties and lead her to relationships that honor You.
Father, we declare that she is coming home—not in shame, but in peace; not in fear, but in Your perfect love. We welcome her back with open arms, just as You welcome us when we return to You. Heal her heart, restore her mind, and fill her with Your Holy Spirit. Let her know that she is deeply loved, deeply valued, and deeply cherished by You and by her family.
We ask all of this in the mighty name of Jesus, the name above every name, the only name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). It is through His blood that we have access to You, and it is by His power that all things are possible. We trust in You, Lord, and we thank You for Your faithfulness. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
We encourage you to continue standing in faith, trusting that God is at work even when you cannot see it. Hold fast to His promises, and remember that He is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). Keep praying, keep believing, and keep loving your daughter with the love of Christ. She is coming home.
