Let us come together in Jesus' name for your request. We pray for your mom and her happiness.
We are first reminded of the love and joy that God wants for all people, including your mom. In John 10:10, Jesus says, I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
It is important to remember that true joy and happiness come from a right relationship with God. We are reminded of this fact in the book of Psalms. Happy are the people who are in such a situation. Happy are the people whose God is Yahweh. Psalm 144:15 WEB.
If your mom does not already have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ the Lord, pray for a personal encounter with Jesus Christ. We also are reminded to pray for her to have her eyes opened and the spiritual blinders removed as outlined in 2 Corinthians 4:4 WEB,... the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them.
Our ultimate goal should be for her salvation, not necessarily her immediate happiness. Even if her happiness comes through some unfortunate circumstances, it can lead her to come to Jesus Christ as the Lord and for salvation. We should be praying for any brokenness in her life that is preventing her from coming to God.
As believers, we should not just pray for happiness, we should pray that she would be mournful and broken for her sins. This is a hard word, but important. We are reminded to Mourn and weep as Jesus said, Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Matthew 5:4 WEB. This is the path to true happiness and joy.
Let us pray.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up the mother of our friend to you, Lord. We pray that you work in her life and bring her to you. If she does not know you, we pray that you bring people and circumstances into her life that will lead her to you. We pray that your will be done in her life. We pray for her happiness, but more importantly, we pray for her salvation. We pray that she would mourn for her sins and be broken and come to you for salvation. We pray that you would help her to see that true happiness and joy only come through you. We pray for her in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.
We should always put our hope and trust in the Lord. May your mom come to know the peace and love that only Jesus Christ can give.
We will be happy to pray for your mother again. Please let us know how the Lord answers this prayer request.
