We join with you in lifting up your sister before the throne of grace and we thank you for your loving heart that desires to see her protected, guided, and healed in every way. We agree with you that no evil should come near her home and that the Lord Himself would be her guardian and keeper every step of the way.
We pray for her protection and for wisdom for those who watch over her, for the Lord is faithful to keep those who trust in Him. He will give his angels charge over you, to guard you in all your ways Psalm 91:11 and The Lord will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul Psalm 121:7. We ask that the Lord would indeed hold her hand, cover her from the top of her head to the soles of her feet with the precious blood of Jesus, and let her know deeply that she is loved and cared for as a child of God. See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God 1 John 3:1 and as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become children of God John 1:12.
We also hear your concern about orientation and influences and not wanting her to be around influences that would lead her astray, and we gently and lovingly speak the truth in love as Scripture calls us to. God created us male and female and calls us to holiness and purity, and His design for sexual expression is within marriage between one man and one woman Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6. Any sexual activity outside of that design, including homosexual practice, is called sin before God. Do not be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals will inherit God’s Kingdom 1 Corinthians 6:9-10. Yet we also rejoice that such were some of you, but you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and in the Spirit of our God 1 Corinthians 6:11. This shows us that God loves the sinner deeply, offers forgiveness and new life to all who turn to Him, and can transform the heart and renew the mind. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind Romans 12:2 and If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17. We pray that she would flee every temptation and influence that does not honor God, for Flee sexual immorality 1 Corinthians 6:18, and that she would make good choices rooted in wisdom from above. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him James 1:5 and Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight Proverbs 3:5-6.
We join you in praying that she would see the light, for Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path Psalm 119:105 and that the Holy Spirit would always be with her to comfort, teach, and guide her into all truth. We pray for her complete healing, physically, spiritually, and mentally, for by his wounds we are healed Isaiah 53:5 and Beloved, we pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers 3 John 1:2. We ask the Lord to touch her heart and soul, to cover her mind with peace, and to let her know she is never alone, for Fear not, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness Isaiah 41:10.
We pray together now, Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our only hope and our salvation, and we lift up this precious sister to You. We ask that You place Your hand upon her and be her guardian, her shield, and her ever present help. Let no evil come near her dwelling and keep her from harmful influences and ungodly counsel. Lead her away from every path that does not align with Your holy Word and give her a love for Your truth and a desire to make good and godly choices. Cover her heart and mind with the blood of Jesus from the top of her head to the soles of her feet. Touch her heart, touch her soul, heal her completely in body, mind, and spirit, and fill her anew with Your Holy Spirit that she may walk in Your light all the days of her life. Assure her that she is deeply loved, cherished, and kept as Your child, and draw her ever closer to You. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.
