Heavenly Father,
We come before You with a humble heart, lifting up our dear friend, ###. Lord, we ask that You set ###'s heart on possessing You above all else. Your Word reminds us in Colossians 3:2, "Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth." Help ### to focus on eternal treasures rather than earthly possessions.
Father, we pray that You would remove any passion for material possessions and replace it with a burning passion for Christ. As Your Word says in Exodus 20:3, "You shall have no other gods before me." May ### find true satisfaction, pleasure, comfort, purpose, and meaning in a relationship with You. Isaiah 58:11 promises, "Yahweh will guide you continually, satisfy your soul in dry places, and make your bones strong. You will be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water whose waters don’t fail."
Lord, we ask that You help ### to live faithfully to You, to remain obedient, and to trust in You wholeheartedly. As it is written in 1 Corinthians 4:2, "Here, moreover, it is required of stewards, that they be found faithful." May ### delight in You, knowing that You work all things together for good for those who love You, as stated in Romans 8:28.
We pray that ### will be guided by Your wisdom in all decisions and actions. Proverbs 3:6 says, "In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." Help ### to commit all plans to You, as Proverbs 16:3 instructs, "Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."
Father, we pray that ### will find joy and purpose in serving You, and that a relationship with You will bring the deepest fulfillment. Psalm 37:4 encourages us, "Also delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart."
We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
