Dear Lord,
TY for all you have done for us. TY that I found out about this spiritual battle, so I can pray appropriately. TY for alerting my spirit that something was wrong, so I could get to the bottom of it. TY for giving me that sense of urgency. My prayers need to be informed, but I am also hesitant to know too much painful detail. Reveal to me what I need to know, + no more. You did not give your children a spirit of fear, so help me to stay strong, + keep the burden you so graciously removed from me.
May A + M welcome my prayers. My concern is not only are they missing out on the blessings that come from having a close, personal relationship with our Creator, but I don't want to even contemplate what awaits them in the eternal state if they remain in unbelief. People get caught up in thinking certain things are unfair + then blame God for allowing it, or at least hold it against Him, but they don't take the responsibility you require of them to find out just what your word teaches, or to seek you diligently.
I'm not sure exactly if she actually believes there's a God at all, or just a higher power. At least she acknowledges that something has to account for how creation came about; now they both need to take their responsibility to seek you out. Give them an immense desire to find out once + for all. Creation testifies about its creator; if they look, they'll see.
Please nudge their spirits to start doing some intensive creation research. May they decide they need to figure out once + for all just what they believe. May they seek out some excellent apologetics publications that point out all the flaws in certain theories, like the much despised (to me) evolutionary theory. May they come across + study the many proofs of your existence + biblical proofs such as ancient texts that corroborate the Bible; archeological discoveries in Israel that prove the Bible; etc.
At any rate, you're in the business of miracles, + you know exactly what's going on. As you pursue them, please keep them surrounded by godly people who will reinforce biblical truths; send them a kingdom connection to help bring them back to you; help them to see your handiwork in creation + in their lives; remind them often of what cannot be explained by chance or evolution; expose the works of darkness for what they are; keep them away from dangerous, ungodly people; protect them from deceiving + being deceived; protect them from accidents, esp. disabling ones; from false teachings + false prophets; for accepting what the world declares as true + right, when the world loves breaking your laws; protect their hearts, souls, spirits, minds, bodies; keep them healthy in every way; protect them from harmful or forced medical treatments; protect their home, property + finances; shield their reputations, identities, credit, etc. May nothing harden their hearts to your Spirit.
Protect my relationship with them so the lines of communication remain open + healthy. Help me to witness in a way that does not repel them. I think I have to be cautious + not speak of you in a way that makes them defensive-as though I expect them to change. Give me wisdom on how to speak to them, + help me to always act righteously + in love.
I know I can trust you to take care of them in every way, esp. spiritually. Nevertheless, I intend to do my part to battle in prayer against the principalities, the powers, the rulers of the darkness of this age, and the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. You have taught us the truth + told us what we need to in order to arm ourselves , and in what order we are to put on the armor of God. TY for providing for all our needs, even in this.
I'm thinking that for now, it's best for me to keep loving them + not do or say anything that they might perceive is forcing my beliefs on them. I am counting on you to guide me in this matter. Also, please place strong Christians in their lives that will impress them with their devotion to you. May these people effectively convey many proofs of you being who you say you are. I esp. pray again for a kingdom connection- a really strong, influential Christian who will play an active role in returning them to you. T comes to mind, although he is only in touch with them occasionally, + is busy with his own family. Someone like him would be excellent.
Stir their hearts to long for a return to a relationship with you. May they note the absence of fellowship with you leaves them feeling empty. May your Spirit nudge them often, to seek you diligently + earnestly.
Let no harm befall them, esp. spiritual harm. Keep a very tall hedge of protection around them to shield them from physical, mental, emotional etc. harm. Tuck them behind my hedge, if theirs is compromised. Send extra angels to protect them.
Bless my relationship with them in every way. In your holy name, amen.
