Father, in Jesus name I lift up this mother's son Z to you and we ask you to help him to meet new friends—friends who will encourage him. May he find in these friendships the companionship and fellowship You have ordained for him. We know Father that You are our Source of love, companionship, and friendship. Your love and friendship are expressed through our relationship with You and members of the Body of Christ. According to Proverbs 27:17 cev, as iron sharpens iron, so friends sharpen the minds of each other. As we learn from each other, may we find a worthy purpose in our relationship. Keep Z well-balanced in his friendships, so that he will always please You rather than pleasing other people. We ask for divine connections—good friendships ordained by You. Thank You for the courage and grace to let go of detrimental friendships. We ask and receive, by faith, discernment for developing healthy relationships. Your Word says that two are better than one, because if one falls, there will be someone to lift that person up. Father, You know the hearts of people, so he(Z) won’t be deceived by outward appearances. Bad friendships corrupt good morals. Thank You for quality friends who will help him build a stronger character and draw him closer to You. Help him be a friend to others and to love his friends at all times. He will laugh with those who laugh, he will rejoice with those who rejoice, and he will weep with those who weep. Teach him(Z) what he need to know to be a quality friend. Develop in him a fun personality and a good sense of humor. Help him to relax around people and to be himself—the person You created him to be. Instruct his heart and mold his character, that he may be faithful and trustworthy over the friendships You are sending into his(Z) life. Father, Your Son, Jesus, is his best Friend. He is a Friend Who sticks closer than a brother. He defined the standard when He said in John 15:13, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” Thank You, Lord, that Z can entrust himself and his need for friends into Your keeping. I pray he will submit to the leadership of the Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus. Amen.
