We understand that you are seeking healing and deliverance for your son, Christian, who is dealing with addiction, tormenting thoughts, depression, anxiety, and bondage to alcohol. We stand with you in prayer, believing in the power of Jesus Christ to bring freedom and healing.
Let us first address the importance of praying in the name of Jesus. It is only through His name that we have access to the Father and can receive the promises of God. 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.'" And in Acts 4:12 (WEB), "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!"
Now, let us bring your son Christian before the Lord:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, pleading for the life of Christian. Lord, You know the battles he is facing, the addiction, the mental torment, the depression, and anxiety. We ask You to heal his mind and set him free from the bondage of alcohol.
Lord Jesus, You came to set the captives free. As it is written in Isaiah 61:1 (WEB), "The Spirit of the Lord Yahweh is on me; because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to those who are bound." We claim this promise for Christian, that he would be released from his bondage and find freedom in You.
We also pray for Christian's mind, that You would heal him from all tormenting thoughts. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 10:5 (WEB), "bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ." Lord, help Christian to take every thought captive and to focus on things that are true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable, as instructed in Philippians 4:8 (WEB).
Father, we ask that You would fill Christian with Your Holy Spirit, that he would find comfort, peace, and joy in Your presence. Surround him with Godly influences and help him to seek after You with all his heart.
Lastly, we pray that Christian would come to know Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior if he hasn't already. That he would believe in Your death and resurrection for the forgiveness of his sins and receive eternal life.
We pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Lorly, continue to stand in faith for Christian's healing and deliverance. Trust in the power of prayer and the promises of God. Be encouraged by the words of Romans 8:26 (WEB), "In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered." The Holy Spirit is interceding for Christian, even when we don't know what to pray. Trust in God's love and care for your son.
