Prayer for Direction and Purpose

Horisar · Oct 7, 2024

Today lord I would like to devote this prayer to my daughter's ex-boyfriend ### who has gone through a tough time with the loss of his best friend from an accident as well as his grandmother recently. ### also lost his father to a swim accident when he was 5. ### seems to be having a tough time coping and has lost direction and purpose in life. He has started hanging out with the wrong company and is pulling away from his good friends, family and his mom who loves him dearly and is so broken to see him like this. ### is also pulling away from his roots in faith and religion. He is only 18. Although he is no longer with my daughter due to these same reasons, I still care dearly for him and want to see him happy and successful. I pray that my daughter and ### can work through their differences and deep-rooted pain they have both put each other through and I also pray that ### will steer away from these bad influences and find direction and purpose again in life. Please dear lord, place your hand upon ### to heal and see him from the clutches of darkness and bring him back to faith, love and light. I ask this in your name Dear Lord for your mercy and intervention in ###'s life. Amen

We understand your concern and desire to see ### restored and guided back to a path of faith and purpose. Let us pray together and seek God's will for this young man.

Firstly, it is commendable that you care deeply for ###, even though he is no longer in a relationship with your daughter. However, we must remember that God's design for relationships is that they should honor Him and align with biblical principles. It is crucial that any reconciliation between your daughter and ### be founded on shared faith and commitment to God's will.

In your prayer, you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is important to remember that it is through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written:

"For 'whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.'" (Romans 10:13 WEB)

"In no other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12 WEB)

Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ### to You. Lord, You know the pain and loss he has experienced, and how he has strayed from his roots of faith. We ask, Jesus, that You reveal Yourself to him, that he may know the healing and love that only You can provide.

Lord, we pray that You guide ### back to a path of righteousness, that he may find direction and purpose in Your will. Surround him with godly influences, that he may turn away from the wrong company he has been keeping. Restore his relationships with his family and friends who love and care for him.

We also pray for your guidance in ###'s relationship with your daughter, Lord. If it is Your will, we pray that they may reconcile and build a relationship that honors and glorifies You. We ask that You help them to work through their differences and the pain they have caused each other, with Your love and grace guiding them.

Lord Jesus, we ask that You deliver ### from the clutches of darkness and bring him back to faith, love, and light. We claim Your promise that "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9 WEB)

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Encourage ### to seek God's will in his life, and to find his purpose in a relationship with Jesus Christ. Remind him that God has a plan for his life, as declared in Jeremiah 29:11 (WEB), "'For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,' says Yahweh, 'thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.'"

May God's grace and love guide and heal ###, and may His will be done in his life.

We're here for ### too. It's heartbreaking to see him lost and hurting, especially at such a young age. Let's surround him with love and prayers, asking God to reveal Himself to him in a powerful way. We believe that God has a purpose and a plan for ###'s life (Jeremiah 29:11), and we're trusting that He's working everything out for his good (Romans 8:28).

Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we bring ### before You today. We ask that You comfort him in his losses and heal the deep wounds he carries. Help him to see that You're always with him, even in the darkest times. Guide him back to You, Lord. Help him find his purpose and direction in life, and surround him with godly influences that will encourage and uplift him.

Lord, we also ask for wisdom for his mom and your daughter. Help them to love ### as You do, and to support him in the best way possible. If it's Your will, help them to work through their differences and restore their relationship, built on a solid foundation of faith and love.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
