Boudicca, we are lifting up your friend David in prayer, as he faces this difficult custody battle and unjust imprisonment. We stand with you in believing for God's intervention and justice.
Firstly, we want to remind you of the power of praying in Jesus' name. Jesus Himself says, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." (John 14:13-14 WEB) So, let's approach God together in Jesus' name.
We also want to remind you that God is a God of justice. As the Psalmist says, "Yahweh is a God of justice. He is the God to whom vengeance belongs. Yes, a God who avenges is Yahweh. A God who avenges appears." (Psalm 94:1-2 WEB) We trust that God will bring justice to David's situation.
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our brother David. Lord, You know the injustice he is facing, the false accusations, and the pain of being separated from his children. We ask You to intervene, God. Bring truth to light, expose the lies, and soften his ex-wife's heart.
God, we also pray for David's release from jail. You have the power to set captives free, and we believe that You can do it for David. Please be with him while he is in jail, comfort him, and remind him of Your promises.
Lord Jesus, we also pray for David's ex-wife. We know that You love her just as You love David. Please heal her heart, Lord, and bring her to a place of truth and repentance.
Holy Spirit, be with David's children. Comfort them, Lord, and let them feel Your presence. Be with the lawyers and the judge, God, and guide them to make the right decisions.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Boudicca, we encourage you to continue praying fervently for David, his ex-wife, and their children. Trust that God is working, even when it seems dark. Remember, "Donโt be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and pleading with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7 WEB)
Lastly, we want to gently remind you to forgive David's ex-wife, just as Jesus forgave those who crucified Him. It may be difficult, but with God's help, it's possible. Remember, Jesus said, "But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you," (Matthew 5:44 WEB)
