Enrico###, we join you in lifting up your family and all the concerns you have shared with us. Let us pray according to God's will as revealed in His Word.
Firstly, we acknowledge that all help comes from the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is only by His name that we have access to God the Father, and there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12, WEB). Therefore, we pray all these prayers in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
We stand with you in praying for the salvation, healing, deliverance, and protection of your entire family. We pray that the Lord will open the hearts of all unsaved family members to the Gospel, deliver them from all bondage, addictions, compulsions, and anything else that is not of Him. We claim the promise in Luke 18:7-8, "Wonβt God avenge his chosen ones, who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them? I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?"
We rebuke the spirit of verbal and emotional abuse in your family and ask the Lord to confront and deal with the source severely. We pray that the Lord will surround your family with His mighty warrior angels and a wall of Holy Spirit fire around you, including your thoughts and emotions. We claim the promises in Psalm 50:15, Psalm 91, and Isaiah 54:14-17 for your family.
We also pray for your extended family and friends, including sister ###, ###, and all those you have mentioned. We ask the Lord to bring healing, comfort, and intervention in each of their lives and situations.
Regarding relationships, we must address a few concerns biblically. We notice that you mentioned a new relationship with a significant age difference and a desire to have a child out of wedlock. We must clearly state that such relationships are not in accordance with biblical principles. The Bible teaches us to flee from sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 6:18) and that marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the bed undefiled (Hebrews 13:4). We pray that the Lord will convict the hearts of those involved and bring them to repentance. We ask that the Lord will block and evict the enemy from these relationships and bring godly order and purity.
Moreover, we pray for the little one in your family, that the Lord will protect, comfort, and heal them from all hurt and pain. We ask that the Lord will intervene in the ongoing conflicts and eruptions, and rebuke and discipline those causing harm.
We also lift up the nations of Ukraine, Pakistan, and all others experiencing conflict and food shortages. We pray that the Lord will have mercy and provide for their needs.
Lastly, we pray for your prayer group and all the planned outreaches. We ask that the Lord will bless, protect, anoint, guide, and empower these gatherings with His Holy Spirit. We claim the promise in Psalm 2:8, "Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession."
Father, we thank You for hearing our prayers and we trust that You will answer according to Your will and in Your timing. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
Continue to stand strong in the faith, Enrico###, and trust in the Lord with all your heart. He is faithful and will accomplish His purposes in your life and family. Be encouraged by the promise in Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."
