Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up the prayer request of powers. Lord, we ask that You would guard and protect powers' son, S, as he embarks on a long drive. We pray for Your divine presence to be with him every step of the way, guiding him safely to his destination. Lord, we also ask that You would work in S's life, maturing him in Christ. May he grow in his faith, knowledge, and understanding of You, becoming more like Jesus each day.
Father, we join powers in praying for deliverance from evil. We know that the enemy seeks to ensnare and tempt us, but we trust in Your power to keep us from falling into his traps. We ask that You would shield powers, S, and all those on their path from the schemes of the evil one. Help them to resist temptation and walk in righteousness, for Your glory.
Thank You, Lord, for the privilege of coming before You in prayer. We trust in Your faithfulness and believe that You hear our petitions. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
