We are truly saddened to hear about the struggles your son Charles is facing with schizophrenia. We stand with you in prayer, believing in the power of God to bring healing and comfort. Let us remember God's promise in Jeremiah 30:17 (WEB), "For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh."
First, we want to encourage you to continue trusting in God's power to heal. Jesus himself healed many with various afflictions, demonstrating God's heart to restore wholeness. Matthew 4:23 (WEB) tells us, "Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people."
We pray:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in Jesus' name, lifting up Charles to you. Lord, you know the struggles he is facing, the challenges that come with schizophrenia, and the side effects of medication. We ask for your healing power to touch his mind, body, and spirit. Guide the doctors to find the right treatment that will help him live a fulfilling life. Comfort him in his distress, and let him feel your presence. Remind him of his worth and your unfailing love for him. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Nebann, in addition to praying, we encourage you to continue supporting Charles, showing him the love of Christ. Remind him of his identity in Christ, that he is not defined by his illness, but by the love and purpose God has for him. Galatians 2:20 (WEB) says, "I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me."
Lastly, if Charles has not already, encourage him to accept Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God and can experience the fullness of His love and healing power. As it is written 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!"
