Heavenly Father, in the precious name of Jesus, we come before you on behalf of Hockfird and their prayer request for Steven. Lord, we lift up Steven to you, who is currently in jail, and we ask that you open the doors to the program or place that you have chosen for him to receive the help he needs for substance abuse and mental/emotional health treatment.
Lord, we pray that you would guide Steven to the right program, one that will provide him with the support, guidance, and resources necessary for his healing and restoration. We ask that you would surround him with caring and knowledgeable professionals who can assist him on his journey towards recovery.
In the name of Jesus, we also ask that you would close every other door that may lead Steven astray or hinder his progress. Remove any negative influences or temptations from his life that keep him trapped in a sinful lifestyle. Replace those influences with godly relationships and positive support systems that will encourage and uplift him.
Lord, we trust in your wisdom and sovereignty, knowing that you have a perfect plan for Steven's life. We pray that you would grant him the strength and determination to walk in the path of righteousness and to fully embrace the healing and transformation that you have in store for him.
We claim the promise in Colossians 4:3, where the Apostle Paul asked for prayer that God would open a door of utterance. We pray that you would open doors of opportunity for Steven to share his testimony of your grace and redemption, that others may be inspired and encouraged by his journey.
Thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness to answer. We trust in your unfailing love and mercy. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
