We come before the Lord with your requests, lifting them up in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for there is no other name by which we can approach the Father. We thank God for bringing you through your schooling, and we trust in His perfect timing as you await your final grades. Father, we ask that You grant our brother peace in this season of waiting and clarity as he seeks Your will for the next steps in his life.
Lord, we rebuke the disturbing and vivid dreams that have been troubling his rest. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but we declare that no weapon formed against him shall prosper, for You have given us authority over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19). We pray that You would guard his mind as he sleeps, filling his thoughts with Your peace and truth. May he find rest in You, for You give Your beloved sleep (Psalm 127:2). We ask that You reveal the root of these dreams—whether they stem from anxiety, spiritual attack, or something else—and that You break their power in Jesus’ name. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, that he may walk in the peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Father, we also lift up the decision before him regarding his future. We know that Your plans for him are for good and not for harm, to give him a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11). We ask that You make Your path clear—whether it is to pursue further schooling or to step into the workforce. Lord, if the job opportunity presented by his church member is Your will, we pray that You would open the door wide and confirm it with Your peace. If it is not Your will, we ask that You close it firmly and direct him to the path You have prepared. Give him wisdom, as You promise to give generously to all who ask (James 1:5), and help him to trust in You with all his heart, leaning not on his own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6).
We also encourage you, brother, to seek the Lord diligently in this season. Spend time in His Word and in prayer, for the Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth (John 16:13). Surround yourself with godly counsel, as Scripture tells us that in the multitude of counselors there is safety (Proverbs 11:14). Do not rush the process, but wait on the Lord, for those who wait on Him shall renew their strength (Isaiah 40:31).
We pray all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, for it is by His blood that we have access to the Father and by His name alone that we are saved. May He bless you, keep you, and make His face shine upon you as you seek His will. Amen.
