We lift up your heartfelt request for your daughter’s visa and permanent residency in Canada, trusting that God’s will be done in this situation. The Scriptures remind us that our steps are ordered by the Lord, and He holds the future in His hands. *"A man’s heart plans his course, but the Lord directs his steps."* (Proverbs 16:9, WEB). We also recall the words of Jesus: *"Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened."* (Matthew 7:7-8, WEB). While we pray for favor in this process, we must also surrender to God’s perfect timing and purpose, knowing that His ways are higher than ours.
Yet we must also address something important: your request did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. The Bible is clear that *"there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). It is only through faith in Jesus—the Son of God who died for our sins and rose again—that we can approach God’s throne with confidence. If you or your daughter have not yet placed your trust in Christ alone for salvation, we urge you to do so today. *"If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."* (Romans 10:9, WEB). Without this foundation, even our prayers lack the power and authority granted through His name.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this mother’s plea for her daughter. Lord, You are the God who opens doors no man can shut and who makes a way where there seems to be no way. We ask for Your favor to rest upon this visa and permanent residency process. Grant wisdom to those reviewing the application, and let Your divine timing prevail. If this is Your will, Lord, remove every obstacle and let Your purpose be fulfilled. But above all, we pray that both this mother and her daughter would know You deeply—through salvation in Christ if they do not already—and walk in Your perfect will for their lives.
We rebuke any fear, anxiety, or doubt that may arise in this waiting season. *"Don’t be anxious for anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."* (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB). May Your peace, which transcends all understanding, fill their hearts as they trust in You.
Father, we also pray that if there are any areas in their lives not aligned with Your Word—whether in motives, actions, or priorities—You would convict and lead them to repentance. Let this season draw them closer to You, not just for the outcome they desire, but for the sake of Your kingdom.
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers. May Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, and may Your name be glorified in this situation. In Jesus’ precious and holy name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in prayer and in His Word. *"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."* (Psalm 37:4, WEB). This does not mean God is a genie granting our every wish, but as we align our hearts with His, our desires begin to reflect His will. Keep trusting, keep praying, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. He is faithful, and His plans for those who love Him are good. *"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you hope and a future."* (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB).
