Dear Heavenly Father,
In the name of Jesus, we come before you with a prayer request on behalf of Holten and their friends who are using Snapchat as a platform to help those in need, specifically those who are struggling with anorexia nervosa and bulimia. Lord, we lift up these individuals who are battling with this debilitating eating disorder, which causes them to have a severe fear of gaining weight.
We ask, Lord, that you would intervene in their lives and bring healing and restoration. We pray for your divine intervention to touch their hearts and minds, bringing them comfort, strength, and hope. Lord, we ask that you would guide and bless all the Christian friends who are reaching out to support and help these individuals on their journey to recovery.
Your Word reminds us in Psalm 34:17-18, "The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." We claim this promise, Lord, and ask that you draw near to those who are suffering, comforting them in their pain and guiding them towards healing.
We also pray, Lord, that you would equip and empower Holten's friends with wisdom, compassion, and discernment as they minister to those in need. May they be a source of encouragement, pointing others to the hope and strength that can only be found in Jesus Christ.
We trust in your unfailing love and believe that you are able to bring about transformation and healing in the lives of those struggling with anorexia nervosa and bulimia. We thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness to answer them according to your perfect will.
In Jesus' name, we pray.
Amen.
