Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of hope and faith, lifting up Bonifas Stanly and the request for Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK. Lord, You are our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of need (Psalm 46:1). We trust in Your sovereign power and Your unfailing love.
Father, we ask that You grant Bonifas favor in the eyes of the UK Home Office officials who will review these papers. Your Word tells us that "The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord; He directs it like a watercourse wherever He pleases" (Proverbs 21:1). We pray that You will guide the hearts and decisions of those in authority, that Bonifas' application will be met with approval and grace.
We also ask for Your peace to cover Bonifas and the entire family during this period of waiting. Your Word reassures us, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God" (Philippians 4:6). May Your peace, which transcends all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Lord, we believe that You are able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to Your power that is at work within us (Ephesians 3:20). We pray for Your supernatural intervention and that this prayer request will be answered in a way that brings glory to Your name.
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
