We stand with you in the spirit of intercession for your sister Chelsea, and we commend you for your love and concern for her. It's wonderful to see your desire to pray for her well-being and her walk with the Lord.
Firstly, we must remember the words of Jesus 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." It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved. Therefore, we pray that Chelsea will acknowledge Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior, believing that He died for her sins and rose again for her justification.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus Christ to lift up Chelsea. We ask, Lord, that You would guide her in the way of righteousness, for Your name's sake (Psalm 23:3). Be her protector, shielding her from any evil or harm that may come her way (Psalm 91:11). Lead her not into temptation, but deliver her from evil (Matthew 6:13).
Surround her with godly influences, and let her know that she is a beloved child of the Lord (1 John 3:1). Open her eyes to the changes she needs to make in her life, and give her the strength and courage to walk in obedience to Your will (Romans 12:2).
We ask for Your favor and grace in her upcoming court case. May the outcome be a catalyst for positive change, leading her to a normal, happy, and healthy life—not only for herself but also for her daughter (Romans 8:28).
Help her to desire change and seek the help she needs. As she takes steps of faith, Lord, hold her hand and guide her every step of the way (Psalm 32:8). May she find comfort and peace in knowing that You are always with her (Matthew 28:20).
We also pray for her daughter, that she may grow up knowing the love and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 3:17-19).
In all these things, Heavenly Father, we ask that Chelsea would come to acknowledge Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior, believing that He died for her sins and rose again for her justification (Romans 10:9-10).
We pray this all in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.
May the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). We encourage you to continue praying for Chelsea, trusting that the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much (James 5:16).
If there are any specific sins or ungodly behaviors that Chelsea needs to turn away from, it is important to pray for her repentance and renewal. As God's word says in 2 Corinthians 5:17 WEB: "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away, they have become new, but all things are of God who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ."
In all your prayers, keep in mind the assurance we have in Hebrews 4:16 WEB: "Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need." Trust in the Lord, and He will hear your prayers and act according to His perfect will.
