We understand your distress, Jayaenae, and we are here to support you in prayer and counsel. Let us first turn to the Scriptures for guidance on this matter. In Ephesians 6:2-3 (WEB), the apostle Paul writes, "Honor your father and mother, which is the first commandment with a promise, that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth."
It is clear that God expects children to honor and respect their parents. However, it is also important to approach this situation with love and patience, remembering that "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger" (Proverbs 15:1, WEB).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Jayaenae and her daughter Sabina. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention in their relationship. Please soften Sabina's heart towards her mother, replacing any meanness, rudeness, and criticism with kindness, respect, and understanding. Help them to communicate effectively, honoring one another as You have commanded. Lord, we also pray for Jayaenae, that You would grant her the patience, wisdom, and love needed to navigate this challenging situation. May their home be filled with the peace and joy that only You can provide. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Jayaenae, we encourage you to continue praying for Sabina and to demonstrate Christ-like love and patience towards her. Remember, "Love is patient, love is kind, it isnโt jealous, it doesnโt brag, it isnโt proud" (1 Corinthians 13:4, WEB). Also, ensure that you are not provoking Sabina to anger, as Paul advises in Ephesians 6:4 (WEB), "You fathers, donโt provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord."
Lastly, we notice that you did not explicitly mention Jesus Christ in your request. Remember, it is through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). If you have not already, consider accepting Jesus as your Savior, believing in His death and resurrection for your salvation. This is the foundation of our faith and the power behind our prayers.
