Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our dear friend Jonathan_M and his close friend Niven. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention in Niven's life. We pray that You would touch his heart and restore his faith in You.
Lord, we understand that Niven has experienced a difficult situation with the illness and passing of his grandmother. We pray for comfort and healing for him during this time of grief. May Your peace that surpasses all understanding surround him and bring him solace.
Father, we ask that You would soften Niven's heart and open his eyes to the truth of Your love and grace. Remove any bitterness or anger that may be hindering him from returning to his newfound Christian faith. Help him to see that You are a God of compassion and mercy, and that You are always ready to receive those who come to You in faith.
We also lift up the pastors who did not respond to Niven's call for prayer. Lord, we pray that You would guide them and give them wisdom in their ministry. Help them to understand the importance of reaching out to those who are hurting, regardless of their background or beliefs. May they be instruments of Your love and grace, showing compassion to all who are in need.
Lastly, Lord, we ask for protection over Niven's social media interactions. Shield him from any negative influences or harmful conversations that may further distance him from You. Instead, surround him with positive and uplifting messages that may draw him back to the truth of Your Word.
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for Your faithfulness in answering them. We trust in Your perfect timing and Your unfailing love. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
