Thank you for reaching out and submitting your prayer request. We are here to stand with you in prayer and to provide biblical guidance and encouragement.
We are glad to see that the request mentions the name of Jesus Christ. It is only in His name that we have access to God the Father. There is salvation in no other name, for there is no other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved. And we know that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
Let's begin by addressing the specifics of your request. You've asked for prayer for your wife, Elizabeth Perkins, that any obstacles preventing her from doing good would be removed, and that she would have a significant turnaround in her life. We will lift her up in prayer, asking God to intervene and to give her the strength and wisdom to overcome any challenges she may be facing. Let's also remember God's promise in Romans 8:28: WEB: "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."
However, we want to gently address a concern in your request. You mentioned that you want Elizabeth to be able to do what she "wants" to do. While God wants to bless us and give us the desires of our hearts, it's important that our desires align with His will. Let's pray that God will give Elizabeth the desires of His heart and that His will would be done in her life. As we read in Psalm 37:4: WEB: "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart."
Now, let's lift up you and Elizabeth in prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother and his wife, Elizabeth Perkins. Lord, we ask that You would remove any obstacles that are preventing Elizabeth from doing good and from fulfilling Your purpose for her life. Give her a significant turnaround, Lord, and help her to overcome any challenges she may be facing. We also pray for our brother, that You would grant him wisdom, strength, and discernment as he supports and loves his wife.
Father, we ask that You would give both of them the desires of Your heart and that Your will would be done in their lives. Protect them, Lord, from the schemes of the devil, and help them to walk in Your truth and righteousness.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we want to encourage both of you to continue to trust in the Lord and to seek His will for your lives. Remember that God is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. As it says in Hebrews 13:5: WEB: "...Be content with what you have, for he has said, 'I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.'"
Stand strong in your faith and continue to press into Jesus, knowing that He is always with you and always interceding for you before the Father.
