We understand your concerns and we want to lift up your family's needs in prayer together. We believe that God has the power to transform every area of our lives, including our finances, relationships, and health.
Firstly, we want to address the importance of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to God the 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.'" So, we will be praying in Jesus' name for your family's needs.
Regarding your family's financial struggles, we remember the words of Matthew 6:31-33 (WEB), "Therefore don't be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well." We pray that your family will seek God's kingdom first, and trust that He will provide for your needs.
Concerning the marriages in your family, we uphold the sanctity of marriage as a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, as outlined in the Bible. We pray that God will bring godly spouses to those in your family who desire to be married, and that He will strengthen and heal the marriages that are struggling. Remember that "a cord of three strands is not quickly broken" (Ecclesiastes 4:12, WEB), and that God desires to be at the center of each marriage.
For your children struggling in school, we pray for wisdom and understanding from God, as it is written in James 1:5 (WEB), "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him."
We also pray for permanent, well-paying jobs for you and your family members, and for the completion of your building project. We trust that "he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ" (Philippians 1:6, WEB).
We pray for the relief of your debts, remembering that God "is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us" (Ephesians 3:20, WEB).
Lastly, we pray for good health and freedom from fear of sickness and afflictions. We claim the promise in Isaiah 53:5 (WEB), "But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up the Oviosun Matthew Ogun family from Ogun state. Lord, we ask for Your mercy and grace to locate them and turn around every issue of concern in their family. We pray for financial breakthrough, godly marriages, academic excellence, permanent jobs, debt relief, and good health. Help them to seek first Your kingdom and trust in Your provisions. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Stay strong in faith, and keep praying and trusting in the Lord. He is faithful and will see you through.
