Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Stephanie, the daughter of our dear anonymous friend, who is currently studying at UCF in Orlando. Lord, we ask that You would intervene in her life and bring about a transformation. We specifically pray for her struggle with alcohol and ask that You would grant her the strength and determination to quit drinking. Your Word reminds us in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, and we are called to honor You with our bodies. We pray that Stephanie would recognize the harmful effects of alcohol and choose to live a life that is pleasing to You.
Father, we also lift up Stephanie's mental health before You. We ask that You would bring healing and restoration to any areas of her mind that may be troubled or burdened. Your Word assures us in Philippians 4:7 that Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. We pray that Stephanie would experience Your peace that surpasses all understanding, bringing calmness and clarity to her thoughts.
Lastly, Lord, we pray for Stephanie to discover and fulfill Your purpose for her life. We know that You have a unique plan and calling for each of Your children. We ask that You would guide her steps and reveal Your purpose to her. May she use her talents, abilities, and education to serve You and make a positive impact on this earth.
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for Your faithfulness to answer them according to Your will. We trust in Your perfect timing and surrender Stephanie's life into Your loving hands. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
