We are so grateful to bring your concerns before the Lord, knowing that He cares deeply for your son and your family. We will pray for your son. We will first address the marriage issue and then address other issues but let us first acknowledge that only in the name of Jesus do we have access to God. It is only in Jesus that we are saved. Let us begin our prayers with a prayer of thanks to God for Jesus and acknowledging our salvation in the name of Jesus.
Dear Lord, we are so very thankful that you sent your only son to earth as a man to die on the cross for our sins. And thank you for your gift of grace that allows us to be saved and to have a personal relationship with you in Jesus' name. We pray for this family in the knowledge that only in Jesus that we can come to you. We pray that this family knows Jesus as their personal savior and has accepted Jesus into their hearts.
Father, we lift up this dear mother's son. We pray that you heal him from his traumatic childhood. We pray for complete healing and restoration. We pray that he will seek a Christian wife and partner. A Godly spouse, and a marriage that honors You. We pray that he will not just look for happiness, but that he will look for a spouse that will encourage him to be a better follower of you. We pray that he will be a Godly husband and a wonderful father.
Lord we also pray for this dear mother who is tired and exhausted. We pray that you will renew her strength in Jesus name. We pray that you will be her strength, her firm foundation, and her bread of life. We pray that you will carry her burdens and help her to rest in you.
We are reminded of what Paul says in 1 Corinthians 7:39 WEB, A wife is bound by law for as long as her husband lives; but if the husband is dead, she is free to be married to whomever she wants to, only in the Lord. In Jesus name we pray that your son will marry only in the Lord.
"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
Lord, we ask that You give this dear mother the rest and peace that she needs. We pray that You will strengthen her and help her to lean on You for all her needs. We ask that You guide her steps and give her the wisdom she needs to raise her son in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
We also pray that You will provide for their physical needs. Thank You, Lord, for Your promise in Philippians 4:19 WEB, But my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. In Jesus' name, we believe and confess that every need is met, and we thank You for Your faithfulness.
Father, we also pray for this dear mother's son, that You will guide him and lead him in the way he should go. We pray that You will bring a Godly spouse into his life, and that their marriage will be a blessing and a testimony to others. We pray that You will heal any past hurts and help them to build a strong, loving, and God-honoring marriage.
"Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh". Genesis 2:24 WEB
Lord, we ask that You will prepare this dear mother's son for his future role as a husband and a father. We pray that You will give him a heart for You and a desire to follow Your ways. We ask that You will bring a Godly spouse into his life and that their marriage will be a blessing to others.
Thank you for the opportunity to pray and thank you for all you do for us in Jesus name. Amen.
