Uldar, we join you in lifting up your requests to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for we believe that it is in His name that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"
Firstly, we pray for your family, that the Lord will provide a house for you. We claim the promise in Matthew 7:7, "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you." We pray that God will open doors for you and grant you a place to call your own.
We also lift up Chimeremeze to the Lord, asking for His healing touch. We stand on Exodus 15:26, where God says, "If you will diligently listen to the voice of the LORD your God, and will do that which is right in his sight, and will pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am the LORD who heals you." We pray that God will heal Chimeremeze and grant them strength.
As your father retires, we ask God for clear direction for your family. Proverbs 3:5-6 tells us, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." We pray that God will guide your family and show you the path He has for you.
For your academic pursuits, we pray that God will grant you wisdom and understanding. We claim James 1:5, "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of the giving God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him." We pray that you will excel in your studies and bring glory to God.
We also pray for Odinaka and Dalu, that God will grant them admission to study their desired courses. We believe that God has a plan for them, as Jeremiah 29:11 tells us, "'For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,' says the LORD, 'thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.'"
We lift up your sister, asking God to make a way for her and grant her favor as she travels. We claim Psalm 37:23, "The LORD directs his steps, and he delights in his way." We pray that God will guide her and bless her journey.
Lastly, we thank the Lord for His goodness and mercy. We encourage you to always put your trust in Jesus Christ, for it is through Him that we receive our blessings. As it is written in Romans 10:13, "For, 'Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.'"
We pray all these things in Jesus' name, amen.
