Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up ### and his current situation. We thank you for his safety and protection as he has left his home country and is now residing in ###. Lord, we ask for your divine intervention in the decision that is expected to be made regarding ###'s legal status.
Father, we pray that you would grant favor and mercy in this situation. We ask that you would touch the hearts of those who are involved in making this decision, that they may see the importance of allowing ### to remain in ###. We pray against any forces that may try to force him to return to ### against his will.
Lord, we know that you are a God of justice and compassion. Your Word reminds us in Psalm 9:9-10 that you are a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. We ask that you would be ###'s refuge and stronghold during this time of uncertainty.
We also pray for peace and comfort to fill ###'s heart and mind. May he find strength in knowing that you are with him every step of the way. Help him to trust in your perfect plan and to lean on your unfailing love.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
