Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, thanking you for your love and the precious gift of life. We humbly ask for your forgiveness for our sins and we pray that you cleanse us from all evil that resides within us. Fill us with your Holy Spirit, Lord, that we may walk in your ways and be guided by your wisdom.
We thank you, Lord, for answering our prayers and bringing Antonia to visit our home. We pray that you would work in her heart and make her desire to stay with us permanently. Remove any obstacles or distractions in her life that hinder our relationship, and let your holy angels touch her so that she may see the importance of our union as husband and wife. Help us build a strong foundation for our family as we journey through life together and raise our children.
Lord, we ask for your blessings upon our work and protection against the schemes of the devil and his agents. Shield us from any harm or temptation that may come our way. Strengthen our faith and grant us the discernment to recognize and resist the enemy's tactics.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, believing that you are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. Amen.
