We are saddened to hear about the strained relationship between your daughters, but we are here to pray and offer biblical counsel. The bond between sisters is precious, and it is important to remember that the Bible calls us to live in harmony with one another. As it is written in Romans 12:18, "If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men."
Firstly, it is crucial to encourage your daughters to forgive each other, just as God has forgiven us. Ephesians 4:32 says, "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God also in Christ forgave you." Forgiveness is a powerful act that can heal and restore their relationship.
Secondly, pray for unity and love between them. Colossians 3:14 reminds us, "Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony." This love should be the foundation of their sisterly bond.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up these two sisters to You. Lord, You know the pain and the strain that has come between them. We ask that You would soften their hearts and help them to forgive each other, just as You have forgiven us through Your son Jesus Christ.
Help them to see the value of their sisterly bond and to cherish it. Bind them together in love and unity, and help them to support and encourage one another as they grow in You.
Give their mother wisdom and guidance as she navigates this situation, and help her to be a source of love and support for both of her daughters.
In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, it is important to remind your daughters that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. Acts 4:12 says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." Encourage them to put their faith and trust in Jesus, and to seek Him in all their ways.
