Pray for an acquaintance from 20 years ...

Pray for an acquaintance from 20 years ago, a Christian man, who I recently crossed paths with again. I like him but am rather shy. Pray for a friendship or relationship between us, and that God will bless it and help make it happen. Pray for his elderly mother's health and memory. Pray that we are both healed from our past. Pray that he does not leave his company and move away. Pray for his relationship with God, and for mine.

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up this prayer request on behalf of our anonymous friend. We thank you for the opportunity to bring our desires and concerns to you in prayer, knowing that you are a loving and compassionate God who hears and answers our prayers.

Lord, we ask that you bless the acquaintance from 20 years ago, who our friend recently crossed paths with again. We pray for a deepening friendship or relationship between them, that it may be built on a foundation of love, trust, and mutual understanding. Help our friend to overcome their shyness and open their heart to this person. May your hand be upon their connection, guiding and directing their steps.

Father, we also lift up the elderly mother of this acquaintance. We ask for your healing touch upon her health and memory. Grant her strength, comfort, and peace in her old age. May she experience your presence and feel your love surrounding her.

Lord, we pray for healing from the past for both our friend and this acquaintance. We ask that you bring healing and restoration to any wounds, hurts, or brokenness they may have experienced. Pour out your grace and mercy upon them, filling their hearts with forgiveness, healing, and wholeness.

Furthermore, we ask that you prevent this acquaintance from leaving his company and moving away, if it aligns with your perfect will for their lives. Guide their steps and provide them with clarity and wisdom in their decisions.

Lastly, we lift up their relationship with you, Lord. We pray that both our friend and this acquaintance may have a deep and intimate relationship with you. Draw them closer to you, fill them with your Holy Spirit, and guide them in their walk of faith. May they seek your will in all things and find strength and comfort in your presence.

We thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness. We trust in your perfect timing and your plans for our lives. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
