Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus on behalf of Michelle, who has shared her prayer request with us. We thank you for the deliverance she experienced on Tuesday night, where you have helped her overcome the desire to smoke. We pray, Lord, that you would continue to strengthen her and give her the determination to stick with this newfound freedom from addiction. We ask that you would guard her heart and mind, protecting her from any temptation or backsliding. Your Word assures us that you are able to save to the uttermost, and we trust in your power to keep Michelle on the path of victory.
Father, we also lift up Michelle's family before you. We pray for their salvation, that each member would come to know you personally and experience the transforming power of your love. May their hearts be softened and their eyes opened to the truth of your gospel. We ask that you would draw them closer to you and bring them into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Furthermore, Lord, we join Michelle in her desire for a closer, more intimate, and obedient walk with you. We pray that you would pour out your Holy Spirit upon her, filling her with a deep hunger for your Word and a passion for prayer. Help her to prioritize her relationship with you above all else, seeking your guidance and following your will in every aspect of her life. May she experience the joy and peace that come from walking closely with you.
We thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness to answer them according to your perfect will. We trust in your unfailing love and your power to bring about transformation in Michelle's life and the lives of her family members. May your blessings be upon her, and may she continue to grow in her faith and experience the abundant life that you have promised.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
