Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Shanika and her family to You. Lord, we ask for Your intervention and guidance in the situation with her daughter-in-law, Kiyia, who is preventing Shanika's son from seeing their baby. We pray for reconciliation and restoration within the family.
Lord, You are the God who hears our prayers and sees the desires of our hearts. We ask that You soften Kiyia's heart and open her eyes to the importance of allowing Shanika's son to have a relationship with their child. Help her to understand the significance of family bonds and the love that can be shared between a grandparent and grandchild.
We pray for unity and understanding to prevail in this situation. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard the hearts and minds of Shanika and her family during this challenging time. Grant them wisdom and discernment as they navigate through this difficult circumstance.
Lord, we are reminded of Your promise in Matthew 18:19, where You said, "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." We stand together in agreement, asking for Your divine intervention and resolution in this matter.
We also pray for Shanika's first grandchild, Lord. May Your loving presence surround the child and protect them. We ask that You bring healing and restoration to the family, allowing them to experience the joy of being together and nurturing a loving relationship with their grandchild.
In all things, Lord, we trust in Your perfect timing and Your unfailing love. We surrender this situation into Your hands, knowing that You are able to work all things together for good. Strengthen Shanika and her family with Your grace and grant them peace as they wait upon You.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
May God bless you and your family, Shanika, and may His peace be upon you all.
