Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, seeking your guidance and strength for our dear friend Tan Popatas. We lift up their prayer request, asking that you would protect their spirit from anything or anyone that may try to pull them away from you. Your Word reminds us in James 4:7 that when we submit ourselves to you and resist the devil, he will flee from us. We pray that Tan Popatas would have the discernment and wisdom to recognize any negative influences and to stand firm in their faith.
Lord, we also ask that you would grant Tan Popatas the ability to do and be anything according to your will. Your Word assures us in Philippians 4:13 that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. We pray that you would empower Tan Popatas with your Holy Spirit, filling them with confidence, courage, and the gifts and talents needed to fulfill their purpose in life. Help them to trust in your plans and to walk in obedience to your leading.
Father, we acknowledge that our own desires and ambitions may not always align with your perfect will. We pray that Tan Popatas would surrender their dreams and aspirations to you, seeking your guidance and aligning their desires with your purposes. May they find true fulfillment and joy in following your path for their life.
Lastly, Lord, we ask for your grace and mercy in times when our prayers may not be answered as we expect. Help Tan Popatas to trust in your sovereignty and to understand that sometimes a "no" from you is for their ultimate good. Just as you had a higher purpose for Moses when you denied his request to enter the Promised Land, we pray that Tan Popatas would have the faith to accept your will, knowing that you have a greater plan in store.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
