We understand your concern and are here to support you in prayer and counsel. We are called to honor our mothers and fathers, as instructed in Ephesians 6:2, Honor your father and mother, which is the first commandment with a promise. As your mother struggles with anger, we should pray for her and consider how we can show her the love of Christ.
Firstly, it is wonderful that the prayer is asked in the name of Jesus. For it is only in His name that we have access to God the Father. It is only by the name of Jesus that we can be saved.
Anger in itself is not a sin, for even God experiences anger but often we can hold onto anger and become bitter. This can be damaging to both our relationship with God and with others.
Ephesians 4:26-27, Be angry, yet do not sin. Do not let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the devil.
Ephesians 4:31-32 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.
We need to address anger and forgive just as God in Christ also forgave us. It can be difficult to manage anger, and sometimes professional Christian counseling can be beneficial. Pray for guidance on this.
Let us pray together:
Almighty God, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up this dear mother. Lord, You see the anger that has taken root in her heart, and we ask that You would heal her, Lord. Help her to see this anger, to face it and with Your grace, to overcome it. Help her to forgive and to let go of her anger. We rebuke any spirit of anger or bitterness that may be influencing her. We ask, Lord, that You would restore her, that You would fill her with Your peace, Your love, and Your joy. Help her to walk in the gentleness and the kindness of Christ. We ask You to strengthen her physically, emotionally, and spiritually, and we trust Your promises from the Bible, knowing that You are faithful, Lord. Draw her closer to You, Lord, and surround her with Your love. We pray this in the precious name of Jesus and we believe this prayer is heard and answered according to Your will and in Your timing. Amen.
Be patient, be loving and be kind. Continue to pray for your mother and trust that God is working in her life. We know that God can bring peace and healing to any situation and this is our prayer. Be an example of Christ to her and always remember to speak the truth in love. God bless you.
