Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of faith and hope, lifting up Rakiyah to Your throne of grace. Lord, You are our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We pray that You would surround Rakiyah with Your divine protection and remove all negative influences from her life. Lord, cleanse her path from those who seek to lead her astray.
Father, Your Word reminds us that "bad company corrupts good character" (1 Corinthians 15:33). We ask that You would separate Rakiyah from those who engage in harmful behaviors and guide her toward relationships that uplift and encourage her in righteousness. Let her find strength and courage in Your presence, knowing that You have plans to prosper her and not to harm her, plans to give her hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11).
We pray for healing over Rakiyah’s heart, mind, and spirit. Lord, bind up her wounds and heal her from all past hurts and pains (Psalm 147:3). Let Your love and peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Father, we ask that You draw Rakiyah back to her family, especially her mother, and restore their relationship with love and understanding. Remove any anger and sadness from her life, replacing it with joy and a renewed sense of purpose. Let Rakiyah feel Your presence and know that she is deeply loved by You and her family.
Lord, we commit Rakiyah’s future into Your hands. Guide her back to her studies and help her to succeed in college. Let her life be a testament to Your grace and mercy. Bring her back to You, Lord, and let her walk in Your ways all the days of her life.
We pray all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus. Amen.
