Heavenly Father,
I come to You today to lift up my dear friend in prayer. I ask that You would surround her with Your love and grace. I ask that You would give her strength for the journey ahead and that You would be her comfort in times of trouble.
I ask that You would guide her in Your ways and that Your will would be done in her life. I pray that You would give her wisdom and discernment to make the right decisions and that You would give her the courage to follow You wholeheartedly.
I also ask that You would heal any physical, emotional or spiritual wounds she may have and that You would renew her mind and heart. I pray that You would give her peace in the midst of any storms she may be facing and that You would be her refuge and stronghold.
I pray that she would grow deeper in her relationship with You and that she would be a witness of Your love and grace to those around her.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
