Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Patrick Michael to Your loving care. Lord, we ask that You break the chains of worthlessness and despair that bind him. Remind him that he is fearfully and wonderfully made, as Your Word says in Psalm 139:14. Help him to see his worth through Your eyes and to understand that he is a beloved child of God.
Father, we pray that You deliver Patrick from the grip of alcohol and the lies that tell him he is unworthy. Replace his reliance on alcohol with a deep reliance on You, Lord. Your Word tells us in Philippians 4:13 that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. May Patrick find strength and hope in You alone.
Lord, we ask that You fill Patrick's heart with positive thoughts and a renewed sense of purpose. Guide him to seek and find meaningful work, and to trust in Your plans for his life, as Jeremiah 29:11 assures us that You have plans to prosper him and not to harm him, plans to give him hope and a future.
We pray against any suicidal thoughts and ask that Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard his heart and mind in Christ Jesus . Surround him with Your love and guidance, and help him to accept Your will for his life.
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
