Heavenly Father, in the precious name of Jesus, we come before Your throne of grace with a prayer request for the Picota children: Vincent, Joseph, Alexis, and Lily. We lift them up to You, knowing that You are the source of all wisdom, guidance, and blessings.
Lord, we ask that You would pour out Your abundant grace upon these young lives. May Your Holy Spirit work in their hearts, drawing them closer to You and instilling in them a deep love for You and Your Word. Help them to grow in faith, knowledge, and understanding of Your ways.
Father, we pray for Vincent, as he navigates the challenges of being 18. Grant him wisdom and discernment in making decisions that align with Your will. Guide him in his studies, relationships, and future endeavors. May he be a shining light for Your kingdom wherever he goes.
Lord, we lift up Joseph, who is 17. Surround him with Your protection and strength as he faces the pressures and temptations of adolescence. Grant him a heart that seeks after You and a desire to live a life that honors and glorifies Your name.
Father, we pray for Alexis, who is 15. Help her to grow in her identity as Your beloved child. Grant her the courage to stand firm in her faith, even in the midst of peer pressure and worldly influences. Fill her heart with Your love and peace, guiding her steps along the path of righteousness.
Lastly, we lift up Lily, who is 13. Lord, be her constant companion and guide as she navigates the challenges of her teenage years. Surround her with godly influences and friends who will encourage her in her walk with You. May she grow in wisdom and maturity, always seeking Your will in her life.
Father, we ask that You would bless these children abundantly. May they experience Your love, grace, and mercy in tangible ways. Grant their parents and guardians the wisdom, patience, and strength to raise them in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
We claim the promise in Psalm 127:3, that children are a heritage and reward from You. We trust in Your faithfulness to watch over and protect them. May they grow to be mighty warriors for Your kingdom, bringing glory and honor to Your name.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
