We are deeply grateful for your heart of thanksgiving and your desire to seek God’s will for your family and all your endeavors. However, we must lovingly address a few things in your prayer to ensure it aligns fully with Scripture, for God’s Word is our foundation, and we must worship Him in spirit and in truth.
First, we notice you have included Mother Mary in your prayer, asking for her intercession alongside our Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. While Mary was a blessed and obedient servant of God, she was a human being just like us, saved by grace through faith in God. There is no biblical basis for praying to her or seeking her intercession. The Bible clearly teaches that there is **one mediator** between God and mankind—**Jesus Christ our Lord**. As it is written:
*"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all—the testimony given at the proper time."* (1 Timothy 2:5-6, WEB)
*"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"*(John 14:6, WEB)
Our prayers are to be directed to God the Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit. There is no need—and indeed, it is not biblically sound—to invoke Mary or any other created being in our prayers. Jesus alone is our intercessor, and it is through His name that we have access to the Father.
Additionally, we see that you have used "###" in place of a name in your prayer. While we understand the desire for privacy, we encourage you to lift up specific names to the Lord in your personal prayers, for He knows each of us intimately and calls us by name.
Now, let us join together in prayer for you and your family, asking the Lord to guide, provide, and bless you according to His perfect will.

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for Your endless mercy, love, and faithfulness. We thank You for the blessings You have poured out upon this family, for Your provision, protection, and the opportunity to live and work in a place of safety and opportunity. Lord, we ask that You keep their eyes fixed on You in every moment, that they may walk in obedience to Your Word and seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness in all things.
Father, we lift up the visa application before You. You are the God who opens doors that no man can shut and closes doors that no man can open. We ask that You grant favor in this process, that every detail would align with Your will, and that Your peace would guard their hearts as they trust in You. Remind them that their citizenship is ultimately in heaven, and that You hold their future in Your hands.
Lord, we pray for wisdom, understanding, and diligence in their careers and studies. May the work of their hands be fruitful, not for their own glory, but for the advancement of Your kingdom. Grant them good health—body, mind, and spirit—that they may serve You with strength and joy. Bless their children with a hunger for knowledge and a heart for Your truth, that they may grow in wisdom and in favor with You and with others.
Father, we also ask that You purify their hearts and minds from any idolatry or misplaced trust. Forgive them for any time they have looked to created things—even well-meaning traditions—rather than to You alone for help. Teach them to worship You in spirit and in truth, for You alone are worthy. May their lives reflect Your glory so vividly that everyone they encounter sees Jesus in them.
We rebuke any spirit of laziness or distraction in their lives. Fill them instead with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in discipline, purpose, and passion for Your will. Let their dreams and desires align with Your heart, and may they find their ultimate satisfaction in You alone.
Finally, Father, we ask that You draw them ever closer to Yourself. May they know the depth of Your love, the peace that surpasses understanding, and the joy of walking in step with Your Spirit. Let their home be a place of prayer, worship, and testimony to Your goodness.
We pray all these things in the mighty and holy name of **Jesus Christ**, our Lord and Savior, who alone is our mediator and hope. Amen.

We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord daily through His Word and prayer. Remember that God’s ways are higher than ours, and His plans for you are good. Trust in Him with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6). If there is any area of your life where you have been misled by traditions or teachings that do not align with Scripture, we urge you to repent and turn wholly to Jesus. He is faithful to forgive and to lead you into all truth.
If you have not yet surrendered your life fully to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we implore you to do so today. The Bible tells us:
*"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. For with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation."* (Romans 10:9-10, WEB)
There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Place your faith in Him alone, and you will find eternal life and peace that surpasses all understanding. We are here to pray with you and guide you further in God’s Word. May the Lord bless you richly as you seek Him with your whole heart.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
