Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of faith and hope, lifting up ### and his family in prayer. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention in ###'s situation. Your Word tells us in Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." We trust that You have a plan for ###, a plan filled with hope and a future.
Father, we pray that the parole board sees the good behavior and the positive changes ### has made during his time in prison. Let them recognize his readiness to rejoin society and support his loved ones. Proverbs 21:1 reminds us that "The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; he turns it wherever he will." We ask that You turn the hearts of the parole board members towards mercy and grace, that they may grant ### the special review and release he is eligible for.
Lord, we ask for Your peace and strength to be with ### and his family during this time of waiting. Philippians 4:6-7 encourages us, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication 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 minds in Christ Jesus." May Your peace guard their hearts and minds as they trust in Your perfect timing.
We also pray for ###'s transition back into society, that he may find meaningful work and be a source of support and blessing to his wife and godmother. Psalm 32:8 says, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you." Guide ###, Lord, and provide for his every need as he steps into this new chapter of life.
In the powerful name of Jesus, we pray and believe. Amen.
Let's lift up 
Share your prayers in Jesus' Name.
