We join with you, dear anonymous parent, in lifting up your sons Tom and Michael to our Heavenly Father. We are reminded of the promise in Proverbs 22:6 (WEB), "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." Even as they are grown, God is faithful to continue the work begun in them.
Firstly, let us pray for Tom. You've asked for a change in his heart and character, and we stand with you in this. We are reminded of Ezekiel 36:26 (WEB), "A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you. I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh." Let us pray:
"Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, interceding for Tom. Lord, you know him intimately, and you desire for him to walk in your ways. We ask that you soften his heart, transform his character, and grant him the wisdom and desire to follow you. Help him to understand that he can do nothing apart from you, and give him a willing spirit to submit to your will. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Next, we pray for Michael. You've asked for wisdom and patience for him in his studies. We are reminded of James 1:5 (WEB), "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of the giving God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him." Let us pray:
"Father, we lift up Michael to you in Jesus' name. Lord, grant him the wisdom he needs to complete his studies. Help him to understand and apply what he learns, and give him patience in the process. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Lastly, you've asked for godly wives for both Tom and Michael. We are reminded of Proverbs 19:14 (WEB), "House and riches are an inheritance from fathers, but a prudent wife is from Yahweh." Let us pray:
"Father, we ask that you would provide godly wives for Tom and Michael. Prepare them for godly marriages, and help them to seek your will in this area of their lives. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We note that you did not mention the name of Jesus in your request. It is by his name that we have access to God, as Acts 4:12 (WEB) tells us, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." We encourage you to call on the name of Jesus, for it is through him that our prayers are heard.
