Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, on behalf of Dupeford, who desires to stop being a mean girl. Lord, we acknowledge that sometimes our words and actions can hurt others, and we ask for Your forgiveness and guidance in this matter.
Your Word teaches us in Matthew 11:28-30 that when we come to You, we can find rest for our souls. We pray that Dupeford may find rest in You, Lord, and that You would help her to embrace the meekness and humility that comes from accepting ourselves as we are, without the need to pretend or compete with others.
We ask for Your grace and courage to fill Dupeford's heart, enabling her to let go of any desire for prestige or position. Help her to become childlike in her approach, simple and artless, finding true peace in beholding You, Lord.
We also pray that Dupeford may come to You through the old and tried way of faith in Jesus Christ. May she draw near to You, pleading the name of Jesus, and cry out mightily on behalf of her soul. Help her to recognize her need for Your forgiveness and to approach You with a humble heart, acknowledging her sins and unworthiness.
Lord, we pray that Dupeford may experience the power of Your forgiveness and acceptance. May she find solace in the promises of Your Word, knowing that through Jesus, a sinner can come near to You. Grant her the assurance that when she prays in the name of Jesus, for the sake of Jesus, and on account of Jesus, she will be received, heard, pardoned, forgiven, and accepted.
We also ask for Your guidance and strength to overcome the temptation to be mean or hurtful towards others. Fill Dupeford's heart with love, kindness, and compassion. Help her to treat others with respect and to build them up rather than tearing them down.
Finally, Lord, we pray that Dupeford may align her prayers with Your will. Teach her to seek Your guidance and to pray according to Your purposes. As she does so, may she experience the assurance that You hear her prayers and that You will grant her the petitions she asks of You.
We thank You, Lord, for Your love, grace, and mercy. We trust in Your transformative power to change Dupeford's heart and help her to become a reflection of Your love in her interactions with others. In Jesus' name, we pray.
Amen.
