We are glad to join you in prayer for your meetings with your parents this evening. It's important to remember that God is always with us, even in our interactions with family. As it is said in Matthew 18:20 WEB, For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them.
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today to lift up our beloved in Christ, Whusorardance, as they prepare to meet with their parents. We pray that these meetings will be pleasant and productive, filled with understanding, love, and respect.
Lord, guide the conversations, and help them in biblical principles as written in Ephesians 6:2 WEB, Honor your father and mother, which is the first commandment with a promise. Help them listen actively to each other, and grant them wisdom and discernment. Help them to honor their parents, as You have commanded.
If there are any issues that need to be addressed, give them the courage to do so in a godly manner, speaking the truth in love as written in Ephesians 4:15 WEB. Help them to maintain self-control, be patient with one another, and be kind, as it says in Colossians 3:12-13, WEB Put on therefore, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do.
We ask these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, for it is in His name that we have access to You, dear Father. As it is written in John 14:6 WEB, Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And as it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved.
We also pray that if Whusorardance or their parents do not have a personal saving relationship with Jesus Christ, that this meeting may be a catalyst for each of them discovering who Jesus is. Then be willing to confess with their mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in their heart that God has raised Him from the dead, they will be saved as written in Romans 10:9 WEB.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Be encouraged, Whusorardance, as you enter into these meetings. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding as written in Proverbs 3:5 WEB. He will direct your paths.
