We understand your heartache and concern for your son, and we stand with you in prayer and support. Firstly, it's important to acknowledge that the battle you're facing is spiritual.
As it is written, For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12 WEB.
Your son's behaviors indicate that he may be influenced by strongholds that need to be broken down through the power of Jesus Christ. As it is written, For though we walk in the flesh, we don't wage war according to the flesh; for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds. 2 Corinthians 10:3-4 WEB.
Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister and her son. Lord, you know the struggle and the pain that they are going through. We pray, Father, that you would break down every stronghold and every deception of the enemy in her son's life. Open his eyes to see the truth, and turn his heart towards you and his family.
Father, give the therapists and employees at the facility the wisdom and discernment to see his need for continued treatment. Put the right words in their mouths, that they may speak the truth in love and advocate for his care.
We also pray for the insurance and the judge's decision. Lord, provide the finances needed for his treatment, and soften the judge's heart to extend the Marchman Act, that he may continue receiving the care he needs.
Father, encourage our sister today. Give her a call from the facility, that she may receive an update on her son's care. Comfort her, Lord, and give her the strength and patience to endure this trial.
Lastly, Father, we pray for his deliverance from addiction and all demonic strongholds. Restore him, Lord, in his relationship with you and with his family. In Jesus Christ's name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, it is written, And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:32 WEB. Continue to speak the truth in love to your son, and trust that the Lord is working in his life.
Be encouraged by these words, And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Galatians 6:9 WEB. Stay steadfast in prayer and faith, trusting that the Lord will bring restoration and victory. We are here with you, interceding on behalf of our sister in Christ and her son.
