We understand your burdens, Stella, and we are here to support you in prayer and guidance.
Firstly, we want to remind you that God is the ultimate judge and helper. As it is written in Psalm 10:17-18 WEB, "You heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear, to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may terrify no more."
We pray, Father, that You will be the divine judge in this situation. Guide the earthly judges to make decisions that align with Your will. We ask that You soften their hearts towards Stella and her children, Miracle and Divine. We pray that Stella's maternal rights will be honored, and her children will be returned to her care, if it is Your will, God.
However, we must remember that God's will is not always what we expect or hope for. As it is written in Romans 8:28 WEB, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose." Trust that God is working, even in the most challenging situations.
Regarding your residency in the Netherlands, we pray that God will guide the hearts of those in authority. As it is written in Proverbs 21:1 WEB, "The king's heart is in God's hand. He turns it wherever he wants." We pray that the authorities will have favor towards you and grant you the documents needed to stay.
However, we also want to remind you, Stella, that our true citizenship is in heaven. As it is written in Philippians 3:20 WEB, "For our citizenship is in heaven, from where we also wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ." Our ultimate hope and security lie in Jesus Christ.
We noticed that you didn't mention Jesus Christ in your prayer request. We want to remind you that it is only through Him 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.'" If you have not yet accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we encourage you to do so today.
In closing, we pray that you will have peace and comfort in this time of waiting. As it is written in Philippians 4:6-7 WEB, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."
We are praying for you and your children, Stella. May God's will be done in your life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
