We join you in lifting up your family’s visa approval before the Lord, trusting in His perfect timing and sovereign will. How beautiful it is that you desire for your family to gather not only to celebrate your son’s birthday but also to witness his baptism—a sacred moment of dedication to the Lord. This is a time to rejoice in God’s faithfulness and to seek His favor over every detail.
The Bible reminds us in **Proverbs 16:3**, *“Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed.”* And again in **Proverbs 3:5-6**, *“Trust in Yahweh 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.”* Your heart’s desire aligns with God’s will for families to be united in love and faith, and we trust He will move mightily on your behalf.
Yet, as we pray, we must also remember that our requests are heard and answered because of the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Him that we have access to the Father, as **John 14:13-14** declares, *“Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.”* You closed your prayer with “Amen,” which is good, but let us always be intentional to pray *in Jesus’ name*, for there is no other name under heaven by which we are saved or by which our prayers are heard (**Acts 4:12**).
We also encourage you to continue walking in faith, knowing that delays are not denials. Even if the answer tarries, God is working all things together for your good (**Romans 8:28**). Keep praying with thanksgiving, as **Philippians 4:6-7** instructs: *“In nothing be anxious, 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.”*

**Our Prayer for You:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You with grateful hearts, lifting up this family and their need for visa approval. Lord, You are the God who sets boundaries for nations and opens doors no man can shut (**Revelation 3:8**). We ask that You move in the hearts of those in authority, softening their decisions and aligning every detail according to Your perfect will. Let no weapon formed against this family prosper (**Isaiah 54:17**), and let no delay be from You but only for Your glory and their good.
Father, we pray that this family will be united soon to celebrate the precious life of this child and his baptism—a testament to Your covenant love. May this time be a powerful witness of Your faithfulness to all who gather. Strengthen their faith as they wait, and fill them with Your peace that surpasses understanding.
We rebuked any spiritual opposition or hindrance in the name of Jesus Christ. No scheme of the enemy will prevail against Your plans for this family. We declare Your favor, Your provision, and Your timing over this situation.
And Father, we thank You in advance for the testimony that will come from this—how You made a way where there seemed to be no way. May Your name be glorified, and may this family’s faith be strengthened as they see Your hand at work.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. **Amen.**
