We hear your heart, dear one, and we lift your burdens before the throne of grace in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. First, let us address the foundation of our faith—it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your life to Him, for He alone can bring true peace and provision.
Father God, we come before You with hearts heavy for our sister in Christ. We ask that You calm her spirit and replace her stress with Your perfect peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Lord, we pray for favor in her dealings with the sellers on eBay and Poshmark. May they respond promptly and honorably to her messages and offers. Provide her with the resources she needs to purchase her Christmas stickers and meet her monthly needs, for You know every hair on her head and every need in her heart (Matthew 6:31-32). We declare that she will not lack any good thing, for You are her Shepherd (Psalm 23:1).
We also lift up her relationship with her mother. Father, we ask that You soften her mother’s heart and bring healing to their interactions. Help our sister to respond with grace and humility, even when she feels wrongly accused (Colossians 3:12-13). Lord, we rebuke the spirit of blame and discord in their home, and we pray for unity and understanding to prevail.
Concerning her health, we pray for discipline and self-control in her eating habits. Help her to honor her body as Your temple (1 Corinthians 6:19-20) and to seek Your strength in moments of weakness. We declare that she will grow in health and vitality, both physically and emotionally.
Father, we stand against the spirit of strife and discord that our sister encountered at her program. We rebuke the enemy’s attempts to sow division and fear in her heart. Lord, we pray for protection over her when she returns to that environment. Give her boldness to stand firm in Your love and not be shaken by the words or actions of others (Psalm 118:6). Surround her with godly friends who will uplift and encourage her, and let her be a light in that place.
We also address the sin of gossip and slander. Scripture is clear that these things grieve Your heart (Proverbs 6:16-19). If this woman has spoken ill of our sister, we ask that You convict her heart and lead her to repentance. May our sister respond with love and forgiveness, even as You have forgiven her (Ephesians 4:32).
Lord, we declare that You are her Provider, her Protector, and her Peace. We speak life over her finances, her relationships, and her health. May she find her rest in You alone, casting all her cares upon You because You care for her (1 Peter 5:7). Strengthen her faith, Lord, and remind her that You are working all things together for her good (Romans 8:28).
In the precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
