Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, interceding on behalf of our anonymous friend. We lift up their prayer request to you, knowing that you are a God who hears and answers prayers.
Lord, we ask for your guidance and protection as our friend seeks to disconnect from Texas. We pray that you would lead them in the right direction and provide them with the necessary resources and opportunities to make this transition smoothly. Your Word reminds us in Psalm 32:8, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you." We trust in your divine guidance, Lord.
We also lift up the request for a name change. We ask that you would grant wisdom and clarity in this decision. May this name change bring about positive transformation and align with your purpose for our friend's life. Your Word tells us in Isaiah 43:1, "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine." We trust that you will guide them in choosing a name that reflects their identity in Christ.
Lastly, we pray for restoration. Lord, if it is your will, we ask that you would restore the things that were lost or changed over the past 12 years. We pray for healing, reconciliation, and a fresh start. Your Word assures us in Joel 2:25, "I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten." We believe in your power to bring restoration and redemption.
In Jesus' name, we pray, amen.
