Heavenly Father,
We come before You with humble hearts, lifting up our dear brother or sister who is seeking Your divine intervention concerning the visa interview. Lord, You are the One who holds the hearts of kings in Your hand and turns them wherever You will (Proverbs 21:1). We ask that You turn the hearts of those in authority to grant favor to this teacher, waiving the visa interview requirement if it be Your will.
Father, You know the desires and needs of this teacher, who has waited patiently for this opportunity for ten long years. Your Word reminds us that "the Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him" (Lamentations 3:25). We pray that as our friend waits, Your goodness and mercy will be evident in every step of this process.
If it is necessary for the interview to take place on August 27th, we pray for Your peace that surpasses all understanding to guard the heart and mind of our friend (Philippians 4:7). Grant wisdom and favor with the interviewers, and let every aspect of the job situation, including the students, parents, and boss, align perfectly according to Your plan.
Lord, we trust in Your timing and Your perfect will. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths" (Proverbs 3:5-6). We acknowledge You in this situation and trust that You will make the path straight.
We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
