Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of praise and gratitude for this blessed day. We acknowledge Your sovereignty and goodness in all things, and we thank You for the gift of life and the opportunity to come together in prayer.
Lord, we lift up Affia to You, who has been in labor for the past two days. We ask for Your divine intervention and protection over her and the baby. We pray that You would grant her strength, endurance, and peace during this time. May Your presence be felt in the delivery room, guiding the hands of the medical professionals and ensuring that everything goes smoothly.
Your Word tells us in Psalm 139:13-14, "For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my motherβs womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well." We trust in Your perfect design and care for both Affia and her baby. We pray for a safe and healthy delivery, and that both mother and child will be well.
We also ask for the support and prayers of our brothers and sisters in Christ. As it is written in James 5:16, "The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective." We join together in faith, believing that You hear our prayers and will answer according to Your perfect will.
Father, we commit Affia and her baby into Your loving hands. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). We trust in Your unfailing love and care, and we give You all the glory and honor.
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
