Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, interceding on behalf of our anonymous friend. Lord, you are the one who holds the hearts of kings and rulers in your hands. We ask that you would intervene in the situation they are facing with the officials and their business.
Lord, we pray that you would touch the hearts of these officials and bring about a change in their minds. Soften their hearts, Lord, and help them to see the impact their actions are having on this business. We trust in your sovereignty and believe that you have the power to turn their hearts towards favor and understanding.
We declare your promises, Lord, that you are a God who hears the cries of your people and that you are always ready to help in times of need. Your Word assures us that when we seek your aid, you will give us the words to speak through the Holy Spirit.
We also remember the words of Jesus, who said in Matthew 18:19, "Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven." Lord, we stand in agreement with our anonymous friend, believing that as we lift up this prayer request, you will bring about a positive change in their situation.
We thank you, Lord, for your faithfulness and for the assurance that you are working all things together for the good of those who love you. May our anonymous friend experience your peace and provision during this challenging time. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
