Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up Hockfird's prayer request on behalf of Steven. Lord, we ask for your mercy and grace to be upon him. We pray for a renewal of his mind and deliverance from every ungodly thing that has taken hold of his life, such as drugs, fornication, deception, selfishness, failure, shame, and any other sinful behavior.
Lord, we ask that you reignite Steven's desire to serve you and to return to his family, Hockfird, and their children. We pray for the mending of their broken relationship and the restoration of trust, love, affection, unity, and commitment. Lord, we ask for your intervention in their relationship, removing any obstacles or influences that are causing harm.
Father, we pray that Steven would confess his unfaithfulness and come to a place of repentance. We ask that you work in his heart, bringing him to a place of sorrow for the hurt he has caused. Lord, we pray for the restoration of their marriage and for guidance to find good counseling that will provide wise advice for rebuilding their broken relationship.
We specifically ask, Lord, that you intervene and remove the other woman from Steven's life. We pray that you would change his desires, causing him to choose Hockfird over her. May she no longer pursue him, and may Steven be true to Hockfird and to you from this moment on. Lord, restore their engagement and bring healing to their relationship.
We thank you, Lord, for your faithfulness and for hearing our prayers. We trust in your perfect timing and your ability to bring about restoration and reconciliation. May your will be done in Steven's life and in their relationship. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
