We understand that you're facing a challenging situation as a parent has stopped helping with grocery bills, and the child is not yet 24 or out of college. Let's bring this before the Lord together.
Firstly, let's remember what the Bible teaches us about family responsibilities. In 1 Timothy 5:8 (WEB), it is written, "But if anyone doesn't provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever." This teaches us that there is a responsibility to provide for one's family.
However, it's also important to remember that God calls us to trust in Him, even in difficult times. In Philippians 4:19 (WEB) it is written, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."
Let's pray:
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up this situation. We ask that You touch the heart of this father, that he may fulfill his responsibilities as a parent. Lord, we also pray for the child, that they may trust in You and seek Your will in this time of need. We ask that You provide for all their needs according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Lord, we also pray that this situation may bring both parent and child closer to You, and that Your love and grace may be manifested in their lives. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
We encourage you to continue trusting in God and seeking His will. It's also important to communicate openly and lovingly with the parent about this situation. Remember, God is faithful and He will provide.
We also note that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It's important to remember that it is only through His name that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" We encourage you to put your faith in Him.
