We are joyful to join you in prayer, Ariane Mae B. Magtoto, as you and your husband seek the blessing of a child in your marriage. We stand with you in Jesus' name, believing that God has a plan for your family and that He hears your prayers.
Firstly, we acknowledge that children are a heritage from the Lord, and the fruit of the womb is a reward. As it is written in Psalm 127:3-5 WEB, "Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. The fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them. They won’t be disappointed when they speak with their enemies in the gate."
We encourage you to remain steadfast in faith and prayer, trusting in God's perfect timing. As we read in 1 John 5:14-15 WEB, "This is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Ariane Mae and her husband. We thank You for their union and for the desire You've placed in their hearts for a child. We ask, Lord, that You bless their marriage and grant their request for a baby according to Your will.
Help them to trust in Your timing and to rest in Your love. Give them patience, strength, and wisdom as they wait on You. In the meantime, may they continue to grow in their relationship with You and with each other.
We rebuke any spirit of barrenness, doubt, or fear, and we declare life, hope, and blessings over their marriage. We ask that You prepare them for the responsibility of parenthood, and that You surround their future child with Your protection and grace.
We pray all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Lastly, we gently remind you, Ariane Mae, that it is only by the name of Jesus 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 already, we encourage you to put your faith in Jesus Christ, believing that He is the Son of God who died for your sins and rose again for your justification. It is only through faith in Jesus that we can be saved and have eternal life.
Trust in His love for you and in His perfect plan for your family. We are here with you in prayer and support.
