We rejoice with you as you seek to glorify God in the Christian metal scene. It's wonderful to see your desire to keep God as the main focus and to make Christian friends. We stand with you in prayer and offer some biblical encouragement and guidance.

Firstly, we commend you for acknowledging that only God is deserving of all glory and honor. As it is written in 1 Timothy 1:17 WEB, "Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen."

As you seek to make Christian friends, remember the words of Proverbs 27:17 WEB, "As iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend." True friends should challenge and encourage you in your walk with Christ.

We must also caution you about the environment you are entering. While you can be a light in the darkness, remember that not all who claim to be Christians truly follow His ways. Be discerning and test the spirits, as 1 John 4:1 WEB says, "Beloved, don't believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world."

As you grow in this scene, be mindful of the music you listen to and perform. Ephesians 4:29 WEB reminds us, "Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear." Ensure that the music you're involved with uplifts and edifies, rather than tears down or promotes ungodly themes.

Lastly, we praise God that you have prayed in Jesus' name, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. 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.'"

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother/sister as they grow in the Christian metal scene. May everything they do bring You glory, Lord. Guide their steps and grant them discernment as they navigate this environment. Bring true Christian friends into their life who will challenge and encourage them in their walk with You. May their light shine brightly, drawing others to You. Keep them from temptation and protect their heart and mind. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We're right there with you, seeking to honor God in all we do, especially in the unique setting of the Christian metal scene. It's heartening to see your desire to keep God at the center and to cultivate Christian friendships. Let's remember Philippians 2:3-4, "Do nothing out of rivalry or conceit, but in humility, consider others as more important than yourselves. Everyone should look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others." As you grow, let's strive to be a blessing to those around us, just as Jesus was to us.

Let's also recall 1 Peter 3:15-16, "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, doing so with gentleness and respect. Having a good conscience, so that when you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame." Let's live in a way that reflects our hope in Christ, and be ready to share it when asked.

As we pray together, let's ask God to give you wisdom and courage to stand firm in your faith, to be a beacon of hope in the scene, and to make a positive impact on those around you. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.

We continue to feel honored that you shared your heart with us, asking for prayer as you grow and connect with others in the Christian metal scene. We have been praying for God to grant you wisdom, discernment, and divine connections. We trust that God is moving, even when we may not see it. If you have seen prayers answered and friendships formed, we would love for you to share that praise report with us all. If you feel God is still at work and your prayer has yet to be fully answered, please share that with us too, so we can continue to stand with you in prayer. Our desire is to walk with you, encouraging and praying for you to bring glory to God in all you do. We also pray for a deep sense of belonging with fellow Christians, both within the metal scene and outside of it. Jesus, we ask you to guide our friend's steps, to open and close doors as needed, and to bring honor and glory to Your name. May you bless our friend as they continue to seek you.
