Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up Neyel's heartfelt request for Ashley, Elijah, Kaylynn, and their family. Lord, You are the God who sets captives free and breaks every chain. Your Word in 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 reminds us that "the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds." We ask that You remove any bad influences from Ashley and Elijah's lives, and protect them from those who would lead them astray.
Father, we pray for forgiveness to flow within this family. Your Word in Ephesians 4:32 encourages us to "be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." Help Ashley, Elijah, and all family members to forgive one another and to move forward in love and unity.
We also pray for the restoration of the mother-son bond between Kaylynn and Elijah. May their relationship be strengthened and renewed, reflecting the love and care that You have for us, as illustrated in 1 Peter 5:7, "casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you." Let their hearts be drawn closer to each other and to You, Lord.
Furthermore, we ask for a special bond between Elijah and his sisters. May their relationship be filled with love, support, and understanding, as described in Colossians 3:14, "And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony."
Lord, we also pray for the salvation of their souls. Draw them near to You, that they may know the depth of Your love and the power of Your grace. In Romans 10:9, Your Word says, "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." We pray that they come to this saving knowledge and experience a personal relationship with You.
We trust in Your mighty power and love, and we thank You for hearing our prayers. In Jesus' holy and precious name, we pray. Amen.
