We understand your heart's cry for your son, and we join you in prayer, standing on God's promises for him. The Bible tells us, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6 WEB). Even when we see our children stray, we trust that the seeds planted will bear fruit.
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up this mother's ### to You. Lord, we ask that You touch his life and transform his heart. Grant him the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD (Isaiah 11:2 WEB). Help him to complete his schoolwork, projects, and exams with excellence. Deliver him from any strongholds or influences that are causing him to behave abnormally. Arrest his heart, Lord, and draw him to You. May he find his identity and purpose in Christ alone. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen."
We encourage you to continue praying fervently for your son, knowing that "the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much" (James 5:16 WEB). Remember, God loves your son even more than you do and desires his wholeness and salvation. Keep declaring God's promises over him and trust in the Lord's timing.
Additionally, it's crucial to ensure your son is surrounded by a supportive community, including believers who can mentor and guide him. If he is struggling with his behavior, seeking professional help alongside prayer could provide additional support.
Lastly, we noticed that the name of Jesus was not mentioned in your request. It is through Jesus that we have access to the Father (Ephesians 2:18), and it is in His name that our prayers are answered (John 14:13-14). If you haven't already, consider accepting Jesus Christ as your personal savior. By believing in Him, you can have eternal life (John 3:16) and the assurance that God hears your prayers.
