Prayer for Family

You are probably concerned about your family during these critical times that many of us are now experiencing. You may be concerned about your finances and your ability to pay your bills on time. There may be health issues that require your strength to face and address. Your concerns could range from general concerns about your family’s safety to specific concerns about your family’s safety.

Whatever your specific or general concerns are, praying for your family entails interceding on behalf of those who mean the most to you. Bringing your worries or fears to God can provide you with peace of mind and help you get through difficult times. You have the option of praying silently or aloud. Speaking our concerns aloud is sometimes a great way to express our feelings.

Prayer for Family Protection

We come before you now, Father God, to ask for your preservation over our families. Let nothing bad happen to them today and keep them safe from mishaps. Allow no evil to have an impact on their hearts and over them with Christ’s precious blood!!

We may not be able to spend every moment with our families today, but I know that you, Lord, are always with them. Keep them safe today and allow them to bring you more glory in the future. Provide them with peace of mind so they don’t have to worry about anything. Protect their hearts so that they only show love rather than hate, anger, or resentment. Amen.

Prayer for Family Healing

Dear God, we commit to you those in our families who have fallen sick. We believe that you are our healer, our Great Physician (Jesus). May You be the comfort of our family members who are physically in pain right now. Touch them with Your Healing Hands, Lord and send forth your Word and heal their diseases. In Jesus’ name, allow your healing power to flow through every cell of their bodies!!

Loving Father, we also ask that you heal the members of our families who are hurting emotionally. Give them comfort as well, God and give them the peace that transcends understanding.

Lord, heal their hearts, which may be filled with rage, hatred, strife, resentment, and unforgiveness. Remove any doubt, anxiety, or depression from their minds. Lord, renew in them a peaceful spirit. Amen.

Prayer for Family Restoration

We also ask that you mend the bonds that some of our family members have divided. We know, God, that there is nothing you would prefer more than for feuding relatives to reconcile. But, Lord, we also concede that we cannot do this on our own. We ask Your Holy Spirit to encircle us with Your love as a result of this. May we be filled to overflowing with love and be able to share it with our families! Permit us to be conduits for Your blessings to them. Lord, please restore our relationships in due time. All of this we ask in Your Name, Amen.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

How to depend on Jesus

The things of this world cannot fill the empty space within us; only Christ can complete us. This embodies for us that we need Jesus more than anything else on this planet. God did not put us here to rely on ourselves, but to rely on him for everything. We can't survive without him, which is why the Bible cautions us not to rely on our own understanding, because our understanding can fail us and our hearts can lead us astray. Physically, we may appear to be capable of doing things on our own, but on the inside, we are slowly dying. I don’t know about you, but if you haven't yet accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, it’s not too late. The Bible encourages us in Jeremiah 33:3 that if we call on God, he will answer us and tell us things we don't know. God is waiting for your call today. He is waiting for you to come to him and ask him to show you the way. Here is a short prayer to seek God: Heavenly Father, please forgive me for all of my transgressions against ...

Wait upon the LORD

  Life resembles a route. Additionally, there will be stop signs and speed limit or increase signs along the route! I chose to use this analogy because there are times in life when all you have to do is wait on the Almighty. And just get more prayer done when you feel like a situation has triumphed over you. Simply put on the gear and switch it out. There are moments when we may feel as though the Lord is not seeing us, hearing us, or responding to our prayers. We can place all of our faith and belief in the living God at these times. Knowing that the Lord is with us and in charge of our lives allows us to wait on Him with great anticipation. He is going to fulfill his promise. He is going to save us. Even when we are not aware of Him, He is constantly at work for our good (Romans 8:28). Waiting on the Lord is something we can learn through prayer, seeking, active trusting, patience, and courage. When we wait on the Lord, we confidently anticipate a favorable outcome, for which we ...
