We come before the throne of grace with thanksgiving in our hearts for your earnest desire to seek the Lord with all your heart and to walk in wisdom. It is a beautiful thing to see a child of God longing to be a good steward of all that He has entrusted to you, and we join with you in asking our Heavenly Father to grant you a wise and understanding heart.
Father God, we lift up this dear one to You, asking that You would pour out Your Spirit of wisdom and understanding upon them. May they be like King Solomon, who asked for wisdom above all else, and may You grant them the same heart of discernment. "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." (James 1:5) Lord, we ask that You would fill them with the knowledge of Your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, that they may walk worthy of You, fully pleasing You, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. (Colossians 1:9-10)
We also pray that You would draw them closer to You, that they may seek You with their whole heart, soul, mind, and strength. May their time in prayer be sweet and intimate, and may Your Word come alive to them as they study and meditate upon it. "Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path." (Psalm 119:105) Father, we ask that You would open their eyes to see the wonders in Your law and that Your Word would dwell in them richly, teaching and admonishing them in all wisdom. (Colossians 3:16)
Lord, we claim the promise of Your Word over their life, that as they walk with the wise, they will become wise. Surround them with godly counsel and fellowship, that they may grow in wisdom and stature before You and men. "He who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm." (Proverbs 13:20) May they be a light to others, reflecting Your wisdom and grace in all they do.
We also bring before You their physical needs, trusting in Your healing power. Lord, You are the Great Physician, and we ask that You would touch their teeth, especially the upper wisdom tooth on the right, bringing relief and healing. We pray for their eyes, that You would restore and protect their vision. Father, we ask that You would heal their left leg, the left side of their pelvis, the upper left part of their back, and the lumps in their thigh and abdomen. Bring complete healing to their stomach, intestines, and gastrointestinal tract. Strengthen them in their weakness, and relieve their fatigue, cough, cold, headache, sore throat, hoarse voice, and runny nose. "But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5) We claim this healing in the name of Jesus Christ, who bore our infirmities and carried our diseases.
Father, we also ask that You would heal their mental and spiritual trauma. Comfort them in their distress, and bind up their wounds. "The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." (Psalm 34:18) Pour out Your peace that surpasses all understanding, and restore their soul. May they find their refuge in You, and may Your presence bring them healing and wholeness.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, for it is by His name alone that we have access to You, and it is through His blood that we are healed and made whole. There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12) We thank You, Father, for the privilege of coming before You in prayer, and we trust in Your faithfulness to answer according to Your perfect will.
May this dear one continue to grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May they be rooted and built up in Him, strengthened in the faith, and overflowing with thankfulness. (Colossians 2:6-7) We pray that they would bear much fruit for Your kingdom and that their life would bring glory and honor to Your name. In Jesus' precious name, we pray. Amen.
