We are truly concerned about the situation you've shared. Firstly, we must acknowledge the power of prayer in the name of Jesus. It's important to remember the words of Jesus in John 14:13-14 (WEB), "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." So, let's come together in Jesus' name and lift up this person in need.
We understand that the individual you're praying for is under immense stress and depression, feeling so overwhelmed that he is considering harmful actions. We need to pray for God's intervention, as God is the ultimate healer. In Psalm 34:17-18 (WEB), it is written, "The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."
However, we must also address the anger issues and destructive behavior. This does not align with biblical principles, as Ephesians 4:31 (WEB) tells us, "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice." We pray that God will not only heal his stress and depression but also deliver him from this anger, replacing it with self-control, which is a fruit of the Spirit as noted in Galatians 5:22-23 (WEB).
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up this person who is overwhelmed by stress and depression. We ask for Your healing touch upon his life. Restore his joy, Lord, and give him a renewed love for life. Help him to see his worth and purpose in You.
We also ask that You deliver him from his anger issues. Replace this anger with Your peace and self-control. Help him to manage his emotions in a way that honors You and brings harmony to his household.
Lord, we ask that You comfort his family members who are disturbed and scared. Be their refuge and strength in this trying time.
Finally, Lord, we pray for his salvation. Draw him close to You and help him to truly believe in Jesus and Jesus' mighty name. Help him to be saved from his sins and to be in a relationship with You. Sometimes it is not enough to be saved from sin but to also be saved from our old self. Help him to believe in his need to be born again as taught in John 3:3 (WEB).
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, while prayer is powerful, it's also important to encourage professional help for dealing with such critical issues. Consider encouraging him to seek counseling or medical attention as well. We are here to support and pray for you all.
