deeannp77, I am praying with and for your friend Chad and his dayghter. When you don't know what to pray, Scripture provides the words for you! Use these prayers from Psalms to guide your request for help from God. H - "HEAR me Lord and answer me for I am poor and needy." Psalm 86:1 The first step is to let God know that you need Him and want His help. E - "ESTABLISH my steps in your word." Psalm 119:133 Second, ask God for His direction and for strength to stand firm in His promises. L - "LET your compassion quickly meet our needs because we are on the brink of despair." Psalm 79:8 We often need help because of our past choices and sin. Ask God to help you focus on His compassion and grace to lift you out of your despair and heart ache. P - "PROTECT me God because I take refuge in You. I say to the Lord, You are my Lord, apart from You I have nothing good." Psalm 16:1 Whether it's spiritual protection from satan's attacks or physical protection, we can come to God and ask Him to be our protector and provider. Seek refuge and lean on God, not your own strength or abilities. God promises to be your refuge if you will let Him! In the Name above all other names. Amen.
Father, we pray for Chad to overcome addiction and reconcile with his daughter so they can be happy as a family to serve Jesus and love God and hate sin. AMEN!
deeannp77, I will pray for Chad to win the battle with addiction and come back to his daughter. I pray she will have peace and a healed heart.
