Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, giving thanks for all that you have done for Ylescea. We acknowledge your faithfulness and goodness in her life. Lord, we lift up her request to lay down cigarettes and find restoration in her breathing. We know that you are the ultimate healer and deliverer, and we ask that you grant her the strength and determination to overcome this addiction. Your Word says in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body." We pray that Ylescea will honor you with her body and make choices that align with your will.
Father, we also ask for your guidance and wisdom as she seeks to make healthier choices in her eating habits and desires to lose weight. Your Word reminds us in 1 Corinthians 10:31, "So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." We pray that you would lead her in making wise decisions regarding her diet and exercise, and that she would find strength and discipline through your Holy Spirit.
Lord, we lift up the coming year to you, knowing that it has been a challenging time for Ylescea and many others. We ask for your presence and guidance in every aspect of her life. Your Word assures us in Isaiah 41:10, "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." We pray for your comfort, peace, and provision in the days ahead.
In Jesus' name, we pray, amen.
