Thank you for bringing your concerns for Ryan before us. Cralmilan, We are joining with you in prayer, standing in the gap for Ryan, and asking God to grant him peace and protection.
Firstly, we commend you for praying in Jesus' name, as our access to God is only through Him. In Acts 4:12 WEB it says,
"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
Since Ryan's behavior is a concern, let's remember that God is the ultimate healer and peace-giver. As it says in Philippians 4:7 WEB,
"And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."
Let's pray together:
"Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Ryan to You. We ask that You grant him the peace and joy that only You can provide. We pray for his heart to be guarded and his mind to be at rest. Help him to fall asleep swiftly and to wake up renewed.
If there are any negative behaviors or influences troubling him, we ask this in Jesus name, Father please rebuke them and remove them from his life. We pray for protection over Ryan's heart and mind, that You would surround him with Your favor and grace. Help him to be a light in this world, living according to Your will and purpose.
If there is anything in his life that is not aligned with Your word, reveal it to him and give him the strength to walk in Your ways. Guide him towards a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, that he may grow in the knowledge of You, in wisdom, and in understanding.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Continue to trust in the Lord, Cralmilan, and rest in the knowledge that He hears your prayers. Keep praying and believing for God's will to be done in Ryan's life. We encourage you to stay steadfast in prayer and to always be ready to share the hope that is within you, with gentleness and respect, as it says in 1 Peter 3:15 WEB.
If there is anything specific about Ryan's behaviors that you would like to share or would like us to address in prayer and discussion, please let us know.
