Let us bring your concerns before the Lord, trusting in His goodness and mercy.
We are reminded of the words of Jesus in Matthew 19:14 WEB, "But Jesus said, 'Allow the little children, and don’t forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these.'" Our heavenly Father cares deeply for your children, and we can trust that He hears our prayers on their behalf.
Firstly, we pray for your children's health. We ask, Lord, that You surround them with Your healing presence, protecting them from any sickness or harm.
"Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers." 3 John 1:2
We also lift up their upcoming tests, asking for wisdom and clarity for your children as they prepare and take these tests.
"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." James 1:5
For your daughter who has experienced bullying, we pray for healing from the pain and fear this has caused.
"He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds." Psalm 147:3
We ask for godly friends to come into her life, friends who will show her the love of Christ and help her overcome her hesitations.
"A friend loves at all times." Proverbs 17:17
We pray that she would find courage to let others in, and that she would be a light to those around her.
"Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." Romans 12:21
We pray all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we can be saved.
"In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness overcame it not." John 1:4-5
If you have not already, consider discussing salvation through Jesus Christ. By accepting Him as their Lord and Savior, your children can begin a personal relationship with God.
We will continue to pray for your family.
