We join you in lifting up your wife and daughter to our Heavenly Father, who is the great Protector and Provider. How beautiful it is to see your faith in His goodness and mercy—truly, He has been faithful to you, and we trust He will continue to watch over your family as they travel. The Scriptures remind us in Psalm 121:7-8, *"Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will preserve your soul. Yahweh will watch over your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forevermore."* We claim this promise over their journey, asking the Lord to surround them with His angels, guard their path, and bring them safely to their destination and back home again.
Your desire for a closer walk with Jesus is a prayer we echo with great joy. There is no greater pursuit than to draw near to Him, for as James 4:8 tells us, *"Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you."* We encourage you to spend time daily in His Word, in prayer, and in worship, for these are the ways our hearts align with His. The more we seek Him, the more we reflect His love, wisdom, and peace—not just in our own lives, but in our families as well. As a husband and father, you are called to lead your household in godliness, and we pray the Lord strengthens you in this role. Ephesians 5:25-26 reminds us, *"Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for it; that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word."*
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with grateful hearts, thanking You for Your unfailing love and mercy over this brother and his family. Lord, we ask for Your protecting hand to be over his wife and daughter as they travel. Send Your angels to guard them, keep their path free from danger, and grant them safe passage in every mile of their journey. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, fill their hearts as they trust in You.
We also lift up this brother’s desire to walk more closely with You, Jesus. Draw him deeper into Your presence, Lord. Open his eyes to the truths of Your Word, and let his heart be sensitive to the leading of Your Spirit. Strengthen him as the spiritual leader of his home, that he may love his wife as Christ loves the Church and raise his daughter in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Fill him with Your wisdom, Your joy, and Your passion for righteousness.
May this season be one of growth, faith, and renewed commitment to You. We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to Your throne of grace. Amen.
