Heavenly Father, today we pray for She’s
Somebody’s Daughter as this organization ministers to women trapped in sexual
exploitation. Of course, Lord, we ask your blessing on all groups that reach
out to women and men vulnerable to trafficking and exploitation. However, today
we take time to pray for this particular ministry. First, Lord, we pray for the
volunteers who regularly visit businesses within
the commercial sex industry with home-cooked meals and gifts of honor. May
these volunteers exude your love and help women recognize their God-given
dignity. May volunteers build trusting relationships with their new friends, so
entrapped women can begin to recognize the hope found in you. May the outreach
recipients accept offers for support, friendship and resources. May they begin
to identify other options for livelihood and life-purpose. Lord, we also pray
for this organization’s efforts at raising awareness. We particularly pray for
their prevention education for middle and high school students in regard to
online safety, awareness of potential grooming, and red flags to watch for
among peers. May our children indeed develop awareness, so they may
never fall prey to those who would victimize them. Finally, Lord, we pray for
hope and protection for She’s Somebody’s Daughter staff members and volunteers.
We know those who seek to free captives often come under spiritual attack, as
well as potentially dangerous situations. Guard volunteer and staff members’
bodies, minds and hearts as they do your work among the hopeless. Keep their
hope alive, fresh and contagious. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
