This man for whom you want to pray may be a boyfriend, husband, or some other significant person in your life like a father or son, and your intercession for them could be the source of God’s great protection and blessings over their life.
Since you are seeking God’s divine favor, you should approach the verbalizing of these prayers with a sense of humble reverence. However, while prayer is a holy conversation, it does not have to be formal, and you can openly and freely express whatever is on your heart and mind. Therefore, pray knowing that God is more concerned about your intentions than the specific words that you use.
With those things in mind, you should think of each of these written prayers as a guide for your own personal interaction with God on behalf of the man for whom you want to pray. Expand upon these prayers with your own words and make them personal by referring to the man you are praying for by name or add specific details that are relevant to their situation.
