We are truly sorry to hear about the situation with your son Dennis, and we are here to pray and seek God's will with you. Firstly, let's remember that God wants us to come to Him in prayer, even when we don't know what to say. The Holy Spirit intercedes for us according to the will of God Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don't know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can't be uttered.
Amanda, it's important to pray in the name of Jesus Christ. It is by His name that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved. Acts 4 12 Neither is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved!
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister Amanda and her son Dennis. Lord, You know the pain and worry that Amanda is feeling right now. We ask that You comfort her and give her the peace that surpasses all understanding.
Father, we pray for Dennis. We ask that You keep him safe and healthy, and that Your angels surround him. We pray that wherever he is, he is being treated with kindness and compassion. Lord, we ask that You soften his heart and draw him back to You. We know the plans You have for him are plans of hope and a future. We pray for a miraculous intervention that would bring him off the streets.
Lord, we also pray for Amanda's faith. Help her to trust in You, even in this difficult time. Help her to know that You are working, even when she can't see it. Give her wisdom and discernment on how to pray and how to act.
We ask all of this in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Amanda, continue to trust in God, even when it's hard. Remember that He is faithful, and He loves Dennis even more than you do. Keep praying and don't give up hope. We are here with you, praying and believing for a miracle.
We encourage you to study the word of God and learn from the words of Jesus Christ.
