A Prayer for SIL, Day 17

On By LindaIn prayersLeave a comment

Jesus, hold SIL close to You and speak healing and wisdom to her. She feels alone and lonely. Encourage her to reach out to the women around her for friendship.

Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest council. Proverbs 27:9

Lord, may SIL find things that will make her heart glad – especially the sweetness of a friend who will speak truthfully and wisely to her. Set women in her path to provide companionship and opportunities for fun and service. For it is in serving that we are blessed.

Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and the one who waters will himself be watered. Proverbs 11:25

In Your Encouraging Arms,

Amen.

A Prayer for SIL, Day 16

Lord, I lift up SIL to you this night as she sleeps. Fill her dreams with Your presence, Your wisdom, and Your guidance. Show her the things she needs to know. Work in her heart as You work out the circumstances in her life that have brought her to this point. Comfort her, encourage her, and give her hope that things will not always be this way.

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might. Ephesians 1:17-19

Father of glory, please give SIL the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of You, having the eyes of her heart enlightened, that she may know what is the hope to which You have called her, what are the riches of Your glorious inheritance, and what is the immeasurable greatness of Your power in her life and heart, according to the working of Your great might.

In Your Mighty Name,

Amen.

A Prayer for SIL, Day 14

Thank You, Lord, for the work You are doing in SIL. Thank You for revealing it to me when I got discouraged. I pray that SIL continues to hear You and respond. I pray that You continue calling and strengthening her. I pray Your protection over her as she cooperates with You on her healing. Reveal to her the cause of her pain – the injuries or sin she covers up, so she can release them to You.

Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy. Proverbs 28:13

Blessed is the one who transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long. For day and night your hand was heavy upon me, my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer. I acknowledged my sin to you, and I did not cover my iniquity; I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,” and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Psalm 32:1-5

Lord I pray You bring to light that which is hidden inside SIL.

Have no fear of them, for nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. Matthew 10:26

Give her courage, Lord. Give her the grace she needs to look at herself. It’s hard, Lord, to really look at ourselves. We often don’t like what we see. But we need to from time to time so that we can let go of the bad and allow You to replace it with good. May SIL have the strength she needs to look at the things she needs to let go of or to repent from. May You cover her with Your grace and fill her with Your love.

In Your Merciful Name,

Amen.

Jesus, I can see little signs that You are working in SIL. Thank You. I pray that she will continue to yield to You. Give her the courage to ask You to show her heart to her – that You show her anything in her needing to be addressed.

Prove me, O LORD, and try me, test my heart and my mind. For your steadfast love is before my eyes and I walk in your faithfulness. Psalm 26:2-3

Prove SIL, O Lord, and reveal to her what You find. Test her heart and her mind as You help her to see Your steadfast love for her. May she walk this journey with You, knowing and trusting in Your faithfulness as she goes where you lead her. The path to health, maturity, and freedom is not easy or fun. Lord, I pray she inclines her heart toward it anyway. Hold her fast so she feels Your touch as she takes these hard steps.

In Your Steadfast Love,

Amen.

A Prayer for SIL, Day 12

Lord, I lift up SIL this morning. Fill her with Your love. Open her eyes to the truth in and around her, to the truth found in You. Give her the grace to see and hear, heal her heart, convict her of sin, and free her from her chains. Shield her from the enemy so that she has the time and space she needs to respond to you. Protect her until she learns to use the shield of faith herself.

He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. Psalm 91:4

Jesus, I pray that SIL will allow You to cover her with Your pinions and that she will find refuge under Your wings. May she find that Your faithfulness is a shield and buckler to her.

In the Safety of Your Name,

Amen.

A Prayer for SIL, Day 11

Lord, I lift up SIL tonight as she sleeps. Heal her heart. Give her wisdom and insight into what she’s doing and what to do about it. Give her the courage and the strength to see what You show her, and to make the changes she needs to make. Call her and set her into a ministry. Surround her with godly women for companionship and for modeling and mentoring. Set her heart on fire with love for You. Renew her first love for You.

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a rightspirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit. Psalm 51:10-12

Create in SIL a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within her. Let her not feel as if You have cast her away from Your presence for I know You have not done so. Fill her with Your Holy Spirit. Restore to her the joy of Your salvation, and uphold her with a willing spirit.

In Your Cleansing Name,

Amen.

A Prayer for SIL, Day 9

On By LindaIn prayersLeave a comment

Jesus, I’m lifting SIL up to You like a child lifts up a broken toy for their father. Fix her, please, from whatever is binding her, whatever is holding her back, whatever is confusing her, blinding her, or lying to her. I pray that she can hear You clearly, see You clearly, know You presence so strongly that she becomes consumed with You and that she puts herself in position to be ministered to by You. Surround her with godly women who will model maturity, and who will pray for and with her.

He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3

Jesus, Your Word says that You heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds. I ask this for SIL. Heal her heart from what broke it years ago, and bind the wounds that she still has and that are keeping her from enjoying the life You’ve given her.

In Your Tender Name,

Amen.
