We understand that you are seeking prayer for your daughter and son-in-law regarding the sale of their problematic house, which has caused significant distress. We stand with you in prayer and offer the following guidance and encouragement.
Firstly, we note that your prayer does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" Therefore, we pray in the name of Jesus and encourage you to do the same.
Let's address the situation with biblical principles. In Philippians 4:6-7 WEB, it says, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." We should not be anxious but turn to God in prayer, trusting that He will provide and care for us.
Regarding the house, we pray that God's will be done. It may be that He has a different plan or timing for the sale of the house. In Matthew 6:33 WEB, it says, "But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well." We encourage your daughter and son-in-law to prioritize their relationship with God and trust in His provision.
Concerning the depression, we pray for healing and comfort. In 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 WEB, it says, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort; who comforts us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God." God is the source of all comfort and can heal even the deepest wounds.
We also encourage your daughter and son-in-law to support each other and seek godly counsel if needed. In Proverbs 15:22 WEB, it says, "Without consultation, plans are frustrated, but with many counselors they are established."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister's daughter and son-in-law. Lord, we pray for Your will to be done regarding the sale of their house. Please guide them and provide for their needs according to Your riches in glory.
We also pray for healing and comfort for the depression this situation has caused. Father, touch his heart and mind, and bring peace and restoration. Help them to support each other and grow stronger in their marriage and faith through this trial.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we want to remind you that God works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28 WEB). Trust in His goodness and faithfulness, even in difficult circumstances.
