Heavenly Father,
We come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up Anonymous and the urgent plea for the safe return of a beloved husband from kidnappers in Nigeria. Lord, You are our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We ask for Your divine protection over this husband, that You would shield him from harm and bring him safely back to his family.
Father, Your Word tells us that You will never leave us nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). We pray that Your presence would be felt powerfully by this husband, giving him courage and hope in this time of distress. Surround him with Your angels, as You have promised that Your angels encamp around those who fear You, and deliver them (Psalm 34:7).
We also ask for wisdom and guidance for all those involved in securing his release. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard the hearts and minds of this couple (Philippians 4:7). Strengthen their faith and their love for one another, and may this trial bring them even closer together and closer to You.
Lord, we trust in Your unfailing love and Your power to save. We pray all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Savior. Amen.
