We understand the gravity of your request, Feyanerale, and we stand with you in prayer, asking for God's intervention during this difficult time for your husband's family.
Firstly, let's remember what Jesus said 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.'" It is only through Jesus Christ that we can approach God, and it is essential to proclaim this truth, especially when ministering to others.
As you attend the wake and funeral services, we pray that God fills you with the Holy Spirit's boldness, as seen in Acts 4:31 (WEB), "When they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were gathered together. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness." May God grant you the courage to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with your husband's family, that they may know the love of God and the salvation that comes only through Christ.
Pray that God opens their hearts, just as Lydia's heart was opened in Acts 16:14 (WEB), "A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, one who worshiped God, heard us; whose heart the Lord opened to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul." Ask that God prepares their hearts to receive the Good News and turns them away from any practices that do not align with biblical principles, including witchcraft, as mentioned in your request.
Remember, 2 Corinthians 6:17 (WEB) tells us, "Therefore, 'Come out from among them, and be separate,' says the Lord. 'Touch no unclean thing. I will receive you.'" As you minister to them, encourage them to leave behind ungodly practices and to pursue a life dedicated to Jesus Christ.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up Feyanerale and her husband's family. We ask that You fill Feyanerale with the boldness of the Holy Spirit, enabling her to minister the Gospel of Jesus Christ to her family members with love and conviction. Open their hearts, Lord, that they may receive Your word and turn to You. Break the chains of any ungodly practices, and draw them into Your kingdom. Help them to understand that time is short, and that You desire for each one of them to be saved and to worship You in spirit and in truth.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Stay strong in the Lord, Feyanerale, and trust that He goes before you and His love will touch the hearts of your husband's family.
