Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, on behalf of our dear friend who is feeling desperate and in need of Your mercy. Lord, we lift up this prayer request for Collins, asking that You would grant him favor and success in the DV lottery this year.
Father, we acknowledge that You are the one who holds all things in Your hands. You have the power to open doors and make a way where there seems to be no way. We pray that You would intervene in Collins' situation and guide the outcome of the lottery according to Your perfect will.
In Genesis 32, Jacob prayed to You, reminding You of Your promise to him. We too come before You, reminding You of Your promises of provision and blessing. We ask that You would remember Collins and fulfill Your promises in his life.
Lord Jesus, You are the way, the truth, and the life. We approach the Father through You, knowing that it is only through Your sacrifice on the cross that we have access to Him. We ask that You would intercede on behalf of Collins, presenting his prayers before the Father.
We thank You, Lord, for being a God who hears and answers prayers. We trust in Your faithfulness and believe that You will work all things together for Collins' good. May Your name be glorified through this situation, and may Collins' testimony be a testament to Your love and provision.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
