We are truly saddened to hear about your friend ###'s struggle with alcoholism, but we are encouraged that he has started to pray to God. Firstly, let us remind you of what the WEB says in 1 Peter 5:7, "Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." This applies to ### as well, for God deeply cares for him and wants to help him through this difficult time.
However, we want to emphasize the importance of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to God's power and mercy. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" Let us encourage ### to call upon the name of Jesus, for there is great power in His name.
We also want to address the issue of alcoholism from a biblical standpoint. The WEB tells us in Ephesians 5:18, "Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit." We should be filled with the Holy Spirit, not alcohol. Therefore, let us pray for God's strength and guidance to help ### overcome this struggle.
Dear Lord, in the name of Jesus Christ, we bring before You our friend ###. Lord, we know that You care for him deeply and that it is not Your will for him to be bound by the chains of alcoholism. We ask that You fill him with Your Holy Spirit, giving him the strength to overcome this battle. Help him to cast all his worries on You, trusting that You will sustain him. Lord, we pray that ### will come to know You deeply, accepting Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Transform his life, Lord, for Your glory. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
May ### find encouragement in the words of Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." Let him hold onto this promise as he journeys towards complete surrender to the Lord.

We've been thinking about ### and wanted to chime in with our prayers. It's heartening to hear that he's started praying to God, and we want to encourage him to keep seeking the Lord with all his heart. In Jeremiah 29:13, God promises, "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." Let's trust that ###'s sincere prayers will lead him to a deeper relationship with God.
We also want to remind him, and us, of 2 Corinthians 12:9, where God tells Paul, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Let's pray for ### to find comfort and strength in this promise. Even in his weakness, God's power can shine through and help him overcome his struggles.
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord, we lift up our friend ### to You. We thank You for loving him just as he is, and we ask that You fill him with Your grace and strength. Help him to trust in You, even in his weakness. Guide him, Lord, as he seeks You with all his heart. Help him to find freedom from alcoholism and to experience Your transforming power in his life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Praying for this in Jesus Name. Amen.
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
