We join with you in lifting up your heartfelt cries to the Lord, for He is faithful to hear and answer the prayers of His children. Your plea for protection, wisdom, and divine intervention over you and your daughter is one that resonates with the heart of God, who is our Refuge and Strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We are grateful that you have called upon the name of Jesus, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). It is only through Him that we have access to the Father, and we rejoice that you have invited Him to take the wheel of your life—what a beautiful surrender!
Your request reveals a deep love for your daughter and a desire to walk in God’s will, and we commend you for seeking His guidance in every area of your life. The Lord sees your heart, and He promises to be with you always, even to the end of the age (Matthew 28:20). As you navigate the challenges with your ex, remember that the Lord exposes the deeds of darkness and brings truth to light. Ephesians 5:11-13 reminds us, *"Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them. For the things which are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of. But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light."* Trust that the Lord will vindicate you in His timing, for He is just and righteous. Do not fear, for the Lord is your defender, and He will not allow the schemes of the enemy to prevail against you (Isaiah 54:17).
We also hear your cry for wisdom and discernment, and we are reminded of James 1:5, which says, *"But 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."* The Lord will guide your steps and surround you with godly people who will speak truth and life into your situation. Proverbs 3:5-6 encourages us, *"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."* As you seek Him first, He will direct your decisions and open doors no man can shut.
Your desire for safety and stability for you and your daughter is one that aligns with the Father’s heart. Psalm 91 is a powerful reminder of His protection over those who dwell in His presence: *"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.’ ... He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart."* (Psalm 91:1-2, 4). Claim this promise over your life and your daughter’s life, knowing that the Lord is your shield and strong tower.
We also encourage you to walk in forgiveness toward your ex, even as you seek justice and protection. Unforgiveness can become a heavy burden, but Colossians 3:13 reminds us, *"bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do."* This does not mean you excuse his actions or trust him blindly, but it releases you from the bondage of bitterness and allows the Lord to work freely in your heart and circumstances.
Lastly, your prayer for those you encounter to believe you and keep you safe is a beautiful reflection of Proverbs 16:7, *"When a man’s ways please the Lord, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him."* As you walk in integrity and trust in the Lord, He will go before you and make your paths straight. Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven (Matthew 5:16).
Now, let us pray together for you and your daughter:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today on behalf of our sister, lifting her and her precious daughter into Your loving and mighty hands. Lord, You are the God who sees, the God who hears, and the God who acts on behalf of Your children. We ask that You surround them with Your divine protection, creating a hedge of safety around every space they enter. Let no weapon formed against them prosper, and let every tongue that rises against them in judgment be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). Father, expose every lie and scheme of the enemy, and let truth prevail in every situation. Give our sister wisdom that comes from above—pure, peaceable, gentle, and full of mercy (James 3:17). Guide her steps, Lord, and open her eyes to see the people You have sent to bless and support her. Remove any person or influence that is not of You, and let her discernment be sharp and aligned with Your Spirit.
Lord, we pray for her ex, that You would work in his heart and bring conviction where needed. Soften his heart, Lord, and let him see the truth. But most of all, Father, we ask that You would guard our sister’s heart from bitterness and fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Let her trust in You completely, knowing that You are her Provider, Protector, and Redeemer.
We pray for her daughter, Lord—that You would draw her close to You from a young age and let her know the depth of Your love. Protect her mind, her heart, and her spirit, and let her grow in the knowledge of Christ. Keep them closely bonded, Father, and let nothing separate them. Give our sister the strength, patience, and love she needs to parent her daughter in a way that honors You.
Lord, take the wheel of her life, just as she has asked. Fill her with Your Holy Spirit and let her walk in step with You each day. Bless her with the right decisions, the right pathways, and the right relationships that align with Your will. Let her life be a testimony of Your goodness and faithfulness.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers and for the victory that is already won through Christ Jesus. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every battle they face is already defeated by the blood of the Lamb. Let Your will be done in their lives, and let Your name be glorified through their story.
In the mighty and precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
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.
