Thank you, Rowena05, for bringing this important matter to us in prayer. We join with you in petitioning our Heavenly Father for your son's educational needs, always remembering the promise that if we agree on anything in prayer, it will be done for us by our Father in heaven where two or three are gathered in Jesus' name (Matthew 18:19-20 WEB).
Firstly, we commend you for acknowledging God's sovereignty and your humility in seeking His face. It's crucial to remember that God is our provider, and He has promised to supply all our needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19 WEB).
In praying for the individuals you mentioned (TP, SP, TP, EPJR, and his family), we must remember that God has the power to turn hearts. Even as Jesus is the only way, truth, and life, no one comes to the Father, but by Him (John 14:6 WEB). It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. We must also remember that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 3:23, 6:23 WEB). As we pray, we ask God to work in their hearts, reminding them of their responsibilities and encouraging them to honor their obligations. We should also pray for their hearts to be regenerated and truly turned to God for forgiveness and salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord.
However, we must also address the underlying issue. The responsibility for providing for a child's education ultimately lies with the parents. If these individuals are not stepping up, it might be an indication of a deeper problem that needs to be addressed. While we pray for their hearts to be touched, we must remember that God's word exhorts fathers not to provoke their children to wrath, but to bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4 WEB).
Let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today, lifting up Rowena05's son and his educational needs. Lord, we ask that You touch the hearts of TP, SP, TP, EPJR, and his family, reminding them of their responsibilities and encouraging them to honor their obligations. We are grateful that Jesus paid the price for all mankind and that it is only by His name that we have access to You and that you desire for all to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4-6 WEB). We pray that You guide these individuals to repentance. Father, we trust in Your provision. Please provide for this young man's needs and help him find the means to ensure his education is not hindered. We pray for peace and understanding in this situation, and ultimately, we ask that Your will be done. We pray for the salvation of all those involved in this situation that do not yet know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Rowena05, continue to trust in God's provision and timing. Remember that He is faithful, and He cares for you and your son. Encourage your son to also pray and seek God's face in this matter, teaching him to depend on God as well. Also, work together in seeking God's will and growing in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
