Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, thanking you for answered prayers. We lift up Antalik's prayer request concerning Joseph. Lord, we ask that you would keep Joseph strong and safe as he awaits his time in rehab. We pray that the probation service would grant him permission to attend rehab, allowing him to receive the help and support he needs. May Joseph find comfort and guidance in reading the Bible and speaking to You, Lord.
We also ask for your healing touch upon Joseph's parents. Please grant them good health and strength, especially his mother, that she may feel well enough to attend church tonight. Lord, we pray for their well-being and that they would find the strength to get through this day.
We ask that all phone calls concerning Joseph would bring good news and positive outcomes. May your favor be upon him and his family during this time.
Thank you, Lord, for your faithfulness and for hearing our prayers. We trust in your perfect timing and your plans for Joseph's life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
