Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister Lulu and her prayer request for her brother-in-law Rafael. Lord, we ask for your divine intervention in his desire to attend his nephew's wedding in San Diego, United States, in June. We understand that the visa process can be lengthy and uncertain, but we believe in your power to make a way where there seems to be no way.
Your Word reminds us in Matthew 7:7-8, "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened." We stand on this promise, knowing that you are a God who hears and answers prayers.
Lord, we pray that you would touch the hearts of the authorities responsible for granting visas. Soften their hearts and remove any obstacles that may be hindering Rafael from receiving his visa. We ask for favor and expedited processing, so that he may be able to join his sister Gloria and her daughter Jimena for this special occasion.
We also pray for peace and patience for Rafael and his family during this waiting period. May they trust in your perfect timing and find comfort in knowing that you are in control of every situation.
Father, we believe that you are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think . We thank you in advance for the answered prayer and for the opportunity for Rafael to attend the wedding. May your name be glorified through this situation.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
