Beautiful Morning Prayer For Family And Friends

Why should you pray a morning prayer for family and friends? The Lord Jesus taught us to pray for our enemies. So, if we should pray for those against us, we should also pray for those dear to our hearts. Isn’t that right?

The Bible says, “Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” – Galatians 6:2

Praying for those around us, especially our family and friends, is a great way to lift their burdens more powerfully than you can imagine. We should never forget our loved ones in our prayer time.

You see, people are constantly facing one battle or another. And there are certain circumstances you cannot help them with, no matter how much you want. Why? Because they are internal, and only God can reach them right there.

Therefore, when you take a moment out of your day to mention someone in prayer, you not only show love and care, but you are also standing with them in spirit and joining your faith with theirs to bring miracles and relief into their lives.

We have put together some short but powerful prayers you can use each morning, every day of the week, to pray for your friends and family. Take them with faith and believe that God, who answers prayers, will hear you.

Sunday Morning Prayer Of Blessing

Almighty God,

I lift my family and friends into your holy hands on this beautiful Sunday morning. Thank you for protecting them throughout the week and blessing them with another opportunity to see and enjoy a new week.

I pray you continue to bless them today and always. Your word has said in Numbers 6:24-26:

“The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you, ad be gracious to you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.” ’

Lord, I receive these words for my loved ones and declare them over them. Please bless and keep them. Make your face shine on them and be gracious to them. Let your light fill them with joy and peace now and always.

In Jesus’ name, I pray.

Amen.

Morning Prayer for Family and Friends– Prayers for Finances

Dear Lord,

Your word says in Philippians 4:19:

And my God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Therefore, as I pray for my family and friends this morning, I lift their finances to you. Thank you for providing for them. You are the Lord, our Provider. So, Lord, I ask that you continue to provide for their needs, including their current pressing ones.

Please help them to depend on you and receive the wisdom to make healthy and profitable financial decisions. I pray that you grant them financial favors on all sides and let them not lack any good thing.

Thank you for answering me, Lord.

In Jesus’ name, I pray.

Amen.

Prayer To Strengthen Relationships     

Dearest Father,

This morning, I pray that you strengthen the relationships of my family and friends. It gives you great satisfaction to see people walk in unity, just like your word says in Psalms 13:1:

How good and pleasant it is when God’s people unite in unity!

Lord, I pray you to help us understand each other and seek what suits one another. Help us overcome our grievances and set aside our differences.

I pray that each member of my family and friends will receive grace to help and support each other, growing in unity and love and resulting in prosperity in every area of their lives.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Prayers For Health And Wellbeing

Dear God,

Thank you for the sacrifice of your Son, Jesus Christ, whose blood cleanses us from our sins and gives us the benefit of partaking in your Heavenly nature, one of which is healing and health.

Your word says in 3 John 1:2:

Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health just as your soul prospers.

I pray for my family and friends this morning and ask that you grant them good health. I pray for the sick among them and receive your healing power over their bodies and their minds.

I cast out every affliction and infirmity by the power of the blood of Jesus and His name. Let sound health and vitality be restored, and protect them from every wave of infection around them.

In Jesus’ name, I pray.

Amen.

Prayer for Strength and Courage

Heavenly Father,

This morning, as I pray for my friends and family, I ask that you strengthen them with Your Holy Spirit.

I am reading your word in 2 Timothy 1:7:

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and a sound mind.

Lord, please give them the courage to face everything life throws at them and to put their faith and trust in you because you never fail.

Let everyone struggling with weakness, low self-esteem, fear, and all feelings of inadequacy receive your touch today. Stir up their spirits and ignite their hearts with a new passion for living so that they may go on to fulfill their destinies.

In Jesus' name, I pray.

Amen.

Prayer For Unbelieving Friends And Family Members

Lord Jesus,

Thank you for loving and caring for my family and friends. Your goodness and kindness don’t come because of how good we are but because you are a loving Saviour.

This morning, I pray for my loved ones, family members, and friends, far and near. I commit the hearts of those yet to put their faith and trust in you into your hands.

Please, Lord, shine your light on their hearts and open their eyes to see your love. Please help them to realize that without you, there is no life. Let them see how much you love them and how you can forgive and wash away their sins forever.

I also pray for your grace to strengthen and revive those who are struggling in the faith today. Let them see you by their side, holding their hand and leading them on.

In your great name, I pray.

Amen.

Prayer For The Grieving Heart

Dear Holy Spirit,

As I pray for my family members and close friends today, I can’t help but think about those who might be experiencing some grief in their lives. Lord, you know them more than anyone else and see what no one else can see.

Your word says in Psalms 34:18:

The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart and saves those who have a contrite spirit.

And it also says in Isaiah 61:2-3:

To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn, to console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; 

They may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, and He may be glorified.”

Holy Spirit, you are the only one who can comfort us during our trying times. Therefore, I ask that you help my grieving friends and family find peace. Let them feel your warm embrace around them and your assurance in their hearts.

Thank you, Lord. In Jesus' name, I pray.

Amen.
