Prayer For My Sisters
Lord, You hold her future in Your hands and You know each detail of her life, including who she will marry (Psalm 139:16). Help her trust You with her single years, staying focused on pleasing You in body and spirit and enjoying that season of life (1 Corinthians 7:34).
Protect my child from evil men who seek to harm her; guard her from the hands of the wicked and from those who plan to ensnare her (Psalm 140:1-5). May You become our refuge and strength, our very present help in time of trouble (Psalm 46:1).
Father, You bless those who hunger and thirst for You and promise to satisfy them with Yourself (Matthew 5:6); pour out Your Spirit on my sister and your blessing on my them(Isaiah 44:3). Bring them to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ (Romans 10:9), and grow them in knowledge and love for You.
My sister took me by the hand, and said,
Come walk with me,
We'll travel down this winding path
that only we can see.
None knows where it will lead,
we're in God's loving care,
He's blessing us as sisters
eternal love to share.
We pause to rest a while upon a cosy bench,
With much to catch up on
that words can never quench.
Our chatter dances in the air, like gossamer sweet kiss,
Velvet in such richness
moments of shared bliss.
Inevitably, it had to be, for as you do, so I too love
And that is why our hearts are one
It feels so good, as sisters we
In every word, your heart I see
One of a kind, our heartbeat's true
Joined by love, this me and you
And now we're rich, real value found
Our kinship sailed, then ran aground
On rosey shores of fragrance rare
God's love, the treasure
ours to share
Father God,
Teach us to care for the needy, for the lost, for each other. May the love and grace you
have so freely given us extend to those in need around us. Show us now to balance all the
demands in our lives. Teach us to care appropriately for our own family and our Prayer Sisters.
And help us to take care of ourselves as well, so we don't burn out or grow weary. Renew us
today with your peace and joy, and fill our hearts with your Spirit as we pray
Dear Lord, please be with my fellow sisters in You. Help them, and comfort them with whatever they may be going through right now. Help them to know that you are here always by their side and that you are walking alongside them in their day to day journeys, or trials. Help them to have a good day, and help them to be confident in themselves and to know that they are loved, beautiful, and chosen by you. Lord be with them, and walk with them.
Amen.
Dear God, I pray for the Christian women and girls around the world in the persecuted church. Please encourage them, and comfort them in these difficult areas of life. Please open the eyes of others to make them realize what they are doing and to have a change in heart and stop. Help people realize that women are important and have an important role. I pray that they would stay strong in their Faith and to trust You. May they be able to fulfill what you have set out for them. Amen.
