Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of gratitude and joy for the wonderful blessing You have bestowed upon Niolage and the family. Your Word tells us in Psalm 127:3, "Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from Him." We thank You for this precious gift of new life and for the opportunity to witness Your miraculous creation.
Lord, we lift up Niolage and the baby in prayer, asking for Your protection and guidance throughout this pregnancy. We pray for good health and growth for the baby, and that all the scans and medical tests come back normal and positive. Your Word in Jeremiah 29:11 assures us, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." We trust in Your perfect plan for this child and this family.
We also pray for a safe and smooth delivery. Grant Niolage strength, courage, and peace as the due date approaches. May Your presence be felt strongly, providing comfort and assurance. In Isaiah 41:10, You remind us, "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Let this promise be a source of strength for Niolage and the family.
Lord, prepare Niolage and the husband for this new journey of parenthood. Fill their hearts with wisdom, patience, and love. Guide them as they nurture and raise this child in Your ways. Proverbs 22:6 says, "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." May they be equipped with everything they need to fulfill this sacred responsibility.
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for Your unwavering faithfulness. We place Niolage, the baby, and the family in Your loving hands, trusting in Your divine providence.
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
