We rejoice with you, Prayerangel1967, in the work that God has already done in answering your prayers for your brother, Erik. It is wonderful to hear that the Lord has intervened to reduce verbal abuse, and we join you in praising God for this mercy.
Let us continue to lift Erik up in prayer, seeking a complete deliverance from the toxins in his life, including alcohol and any other substances. As it is written in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (WEB), "Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."
We pray fervently for Erik's spiritual renewal, that he may draw near to God and find strength and victory over the demonic forces that seek to destroy him. Ephesians 6:11-12 (WEB) reminds us, "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."
In Jesus' name, we pray for Erik's salvation and restoration. May he come to know the love of Christ deeply and receive the power of the Holy Spirit to overcome all that hinders him. We encourage you to continue interceding for Erik, knowing that our prayers are powerful and effective according to James 5:16 (WEB), "The effective, earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results."
Lastly, we want to emphasize the importance of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. It is through His name that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name by which we can be saved. As Acts 4:12 (WEB) states, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Erik to You. Lord, we ask for a complete removal of all toxins from his life and for his spiritual life to be fully restored. Strengthen him to overcome and cast off all demonic forces trying to destroy him. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, that he may live a life glorifying to You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
