Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious family to Your loving care. Your Word tells us in Psalm 91:1-2, "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, 'My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.'" Lord, we declare Your protection over this home tonight.
Lord, surround this family with Your angels, as You have promised in Psalm 34:7, "The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and delivers them." May Your divine presence be a shield around this home, keeping every member safe and secure.
We pray for peace to fill their hearts, as You have said in Philippians 4:6-7, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Lord, grant them peace that transcends all understanding.
Strengthen this parent who is caring for the children alone tonight. Give wisdom and courage, knowing that You are always with them, as You have promised in Joshua 1:9, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
We pray all these things in the powerful and precious name of Jesus. Amen.
