We join with you in lifting up your family before the Lord, for it is a beautiful and righteous thing to seek His protection, healing, and guidance for those He has entrusted to you. Your prayer reflects a heart that desires to walk in obedience to God’s will, and we commend you for seeking closer relationships in Christ—this is the foundation of a godly home.
The Scriptures remind us of the importance of loving God wholeheartedly and teaching our families to do the same. As it is written in Deuteronomy 6:5-7, *"You shall love Yahweh your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might. These words, which I command you today, shall be on your heart; and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up."* This is the calling of every believer—to cultivate a home where God’s Word is central, where love for Him is the highest priority, and where His truth is passed down through generations.
We also take note of your plea for deliverance from evil, and we stand with you in this, for we know that our battle is not against flesh and blood but against the spiritual forces of wickedness (Ephesians 6:12). The Lord is faithful to guard and keep those who trust in Him, and we claim His promise from Psalm 91: *"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.’"*
Yet, as we pray for your family, we must also ask: Are there areas where sin may have taken root? Are there relationships within the household that are not honoring to God? Are there influences—whether from media, friendships, or worldly philosophies—that are pulling your family away from wholehearted devotion to Christ? If so, we urge you to address these things with boldness and repentance, for the Lord calls His people to be holy, set apart for His purposes. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 6:17-18, *"‘Therefore come out from among them, and be separate,’ says the Lord. ‘Touch no unclean thing. I will receive you. I will be to you a Father. You will be to me sons and daughters,’ says the Lord Almighty."*
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with grateful hearts, thanking You for the gift of family and the privilege of seeking Your face on their behalf. Lord, we ask that You would save, heal, and protect this family in every way—spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Bind them together in Your love, and let their home be a place where Your presence dwells richly. Grant them the grace to love You with all their hearts, souls, and minds, and to walk in obedience to Your Word.
Father, we ask that You would expose and uproot any sin, any compromise, or any influence that does not align with Your will. Convict hearts where necessary, and lead this family into repentance and restoration. Let their relationships be built on the foundation of Christ, and may they encourage one another daily in faith and godliness.
We rebuke every scheme of the enemy that seeks to harm, divide, or distract this family from Your purposes. Cover them with Your blood, Lord Jesus, and surround them with Your angels. Let no weapon formed against them prosper, and let every tongue that rises against them be condemned (Isaiah 54:17).
Father, we thank You for the promise that if we seek You first, all these things will be added to us (Matthew 6:33). Strengthen this family to prioritize You above all else, and let their lives be a testimony of Your faithfulness. May they grow closer to You and to one another, united in purpose and love.
We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is worthy of all praise and glory. Amen.
