We understand that you are seeking God's help for your new responsibilities, job stability, and your child's education and guidance. Let us come together in prayer and counsel for these requests.
Firstly, it is so important to acknowledge Who it is that is being approached. It is only in the name of Jesus that we are allowed to come to God. God hears us because of Jesus. Let us remember Jesus' words, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, thanking you for the new responsibilities you have entrusted to ###. We pray that you grant them wisdom and discernment to handle these responsibilities well. We ask that you establish them in this job and make it a long-term position if it is in accordance with your will.
Father, we also lift up ###'s child to you. We pray for your protection over them and for your guidance as they prepare for and take their exams. We ask that you grant them clarity of mind, understanding, and recall of what they have studied. We also pray that you direct their path and lead them to choose the right course that aligns with your purpose for their life.
Father, we ask that you surround ### and their child with your favor and grace. We pray that they would seek you first and that you would order their steps according to your word. We ask these things in the name of Jesus.
Father, we also pray for ### to draw nearer to you and to seek to glorify you in all they do. Father, we pray for their salvation and that the Holy Spirit will lead them to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior if they have not already. We pray that they would call on the name of Jesus and not just the general term of Lord.
Lord, we pray your will be done on earth as it is in heaven and give us this day our daily bread. We ask that you forgive our sins as we forgive others and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil in Jesus name.
Father, we pray that ### would remember to acknowledge Jesus and to pray in His name.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember the words of the Lord Jesus, For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Let us encourage ### with these words from the scripture, Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones.
Lastly, let us remind ### of the importance of training their child in the way of the Lord, Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it. It is crucial to teach the Lord's ways to your children and to pray with them and for them regularly.
