Thank you for bringing your concerns for Sister Opes before us. We will stand with you in prayer and support for her.
Firstly, we acknowledge that all help comes from God, and it is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we can approach God the Father. It is also only by believing in Jesus Christ that we can be saved. As Jesus said in John 14:6 WEB: I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our sister in Christ, Opes. We thank You for her life and the lives of her three young children. Lord, we acknowledge that she is facing tremendous challenges that have led her into depression and other difficulties.
Father, we rebuke the enemy's attacks against her and her family, for You have said in Your Word, Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you James 4:7-8 WEB. We declare that no weapon formed against her will prosper, and we tear down any strongholds of the enemy in her life Isaiah 54:17 WEB.
Lord, we ask that You fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding her heart and mind in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7 WEB. Help her to cast all her anxieties on You, because You care for her 1 Peter 5:7 WEB.
We also pray for her children, that You would protect them, provide for them, and give them peace. We ask that You would raise up godly support and wisdom for Opes as she cares for them.
Father, remind Opes of Your unfailing love and faithfulness. Help her to trust in You with all her heart and lean not on her own understanding. Please guide her in all her ways: the decisions she makes, the people she associates with, and the direction she takes in life Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB.
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray for deliverance, healing, and restoration for Opes and her family. We ask for Your intervention in every area of her life. Thank you Jesus. Amen.
Please encourage Opes to continue to put her trust in Jesus Christ. Proverbs 4:5-6 WEB Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Remind her that Jesus has promised to be with us always, even until the end of the age Matthew 28:20 WEB.
Also, encourage her to seek godly counsel and support from her local church and Christian community. It is important for her to have a support system that can help her through this difficult time.
