PEACE IN MY FAMILY

[Leah B.]

Different family members are fighting amongst one another. Honestly, I see all different sides to these arguments. I wish they would just all make up. Amen.

We understand that you are seeking peace and harmony in your family, Leah. It's commendable that you see various sides to the arguments, and it's clear that you desire reconciliation. However, we want to address a crucial aspect of prayer that we noticed was missing in your request. You did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to God the Father, and it is only through His name that we have the Holy Spirit to help us and give us the words to pray as we should.

As Jesus said in John 14:6 WEB: "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

And in Acts 4:12 WEB: "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"

So, let us pray together in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for His intervention in your family's disputes.

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your peace and reconciliation in Leah's family. We know that it is Your desire for families to live in harmony and love, as You have shown us throughout Scripture.

We pray, Lord, that You would soften the hearts of each family member, granting them humility, understanding, and forgiveness. Help them to see each other through Your eyes, with love and compassion. We ask that You give Leah wisdom and discernment, as well as the right words to say, in order to be a peacemaker in her family.

We ask You to help each family member seek peace because we know that peace is a fruit of the Spirit. That means that peace does not just come by the family members trying harder to get along. It comes by each family member individually seeking You and the Holy Spirit that you give. It is the Holy Spirit that will give each family member the power to put the other person first and to show love and respect even when each family member does not agree. It is the Holy Spirit that will provide the power to avoid arguments and to keep each person from being mean or angry to the other. If anyone is angry, they should not let it escalate and they should not let it affect the way they treat the other person. In Ephesians 4:26-27 WEB it says "Be angry, yet do not sin. Do not let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the devil."

We ask that You help each family member remember that it is not by living according to the flesh that we can have peace and unity, but by living according to the Spirit. "Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let's also walk by the Spirit. Let's not become conceited, provoking one another, and envying one another." Galatians 5:24-26 WEB

We rebuke any selfishness, stubbornness or pride within this family and cast it out in the name of Jesus Christ. We rebuke any attempt by Satan to divide this family and cause this fighting. Lord, please bind their hearts together in unity and love, and help them to be a testimony of Your grace and mercy to others.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you, Leah, to be patient and trust in the Lord's timing. Continue to pray for your family members and show them the love of Christ in your actions and words. Remember that the power of prayer is not just in asking God for what we want, but in seeking God's will and allowing Him to change our hearts and the hearts of others.

As it says in Romans 12:18 WEB: "If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men."

Lastly, if you have not already, consider studying the Bible with your family, allowing God's Word to guide and teach each of you. If there is further division that is caused by one or more family members living according to the flesh or being involved in ungodly relationships, remember that the Bible tells us not to associate with people that claim to be Christians but still live according to the flesh.

As it says in 1 Corinthians 5:11 WEB: "But as it is, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother who is a sexual sinner, or covetous, or an idolater, or a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. Do not even eat with such a person."
