Thank you, Spruolake, for bringing this matter to us in prayer. It's wonderful to see your heartfelt concern for your stepdaughter.
Firstly, we commend you for praying in the name of Jesus Christ, as it is only through His name that we have access to God. 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."
Let's turn to God's word to guide our prayers and advice. In Philippians 4:13 WEB, we read: "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." This verse reassures us that through Christ, your stepdaughter can find the strength, confidence, and courage she needs to transition into independent living.
We should also pray for God's will to be done in her life. In Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB, it says: "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."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today to lift up Spruolake's stepdaughter. We pray that You would grant her the success, confidence, and courage she needs to move out on her own. Guide her steps, Lord, and let Your will be done in her life. Help her to trust in You and to lean not on her own understanding. Strengthen her through Christ Jesus, who empowers us to do all things.
Father, we also pray for Spruolake, that You would give them wisdom and discernment as they support their stepdaughter in this transition. Help them to be a source of encouragement and godly counsel.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue being a godly influence in your stepdaughter's life. Remind her of the importance of seeking God's will and trusting in Him. Guide her towards biblical principles and encourage her to pursue a life that honors God.
