We join with you, Gaycelot, in praying for Joshua's salvation and the restoration of his family. We stand on the promises of God, who is faithful and just to forgive our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9 WEB).
Firstly, we want to address the issue of Joshua's actions. The Bible is clear that adultery is a sin (Exodus 20:14 WEB), and Joshua has chosen to abandon his wife and child to live with another woman. This is not in line with God's will for marriage, which is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman (Matthew 19:6 WEB). We rebuke this sin in the name of Jesus Christ and pray for Joshua's conviction and true repentance.
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, pleading the blood of Jesus over Joshua and his family. Lord, we ask that You bring Joshua to true repentance. Convict him of his sin and wrongdoing. Capture his attention, Lord, and renew his mind according to Your Word (Romans 12:2 WEB). Bring him to a place of godly sorrow that leads to repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10 WEB).
Lord, we also pray for the restoration of Joshua's family. We ask that You would bring healing to the wounds that have been caused and that You would draw Joshua, his wife, and their son Kaison closer to You. Break the chains of generational trauma, curses, and strongholds in Joshua's life, Lord. Let Your grace and mercy abound in their lives.
We also pray for Kaison, Lord. We ask that You would protect his heart and mind in this situation. Surround him with godly influences and let him grow to know and love You.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Gaycelot, we encourage you to continue to stand in the gap for Joshua and his family. The Lord hears your prayers and is faithful to act (Jeremiah 29:12 WEB). Trust in His timing and His ways, knowing that His plans are to prosper and not to harm, to give hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11 WEB).
Remember, it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God (John 14:6 WEB). Continue to lift up Joshua and his family in Jesus' name, trusting that the Lord will bring about the salvation and restoration you are praying for. Be encouraged, for the Lord is with you.
