We understand the deep concern and pain you're feeling, Howthem, and we want to stand with you in prayer for your son. Let's bring this situation before the Lord, seeking His intervention and guidance.
Firstly, let's address the issue of your son's self-medication with CBD and alcohol. The Bible teaches us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 WEB), and we should honor God with them. We rebuke the spirit of addiction and dependency, and we pray that God will give your son the strength to overcome this.
We also acknowledge the change in your son's behavior, from once giving loving hugs to now being cold and distant. We believe this is not God's will for your family, and we stand against the work of the enemy in this situation. As it is written in John 10:10 (WEB), "The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly." We claim this abundant life for your son in Jesus' name.
Let's pray:
"Father God, we come before You today lifting up Howthem's son to You. Lord, we know that You love him deeply and have great plans for his life. We ask that You would break the chains of addiction and apathy in his life. Give him the strength to overcome, and give Howthem the wisdom to support and guide him in a godly way.
We also ask that You would restore the loving relationship they once had. We know that You are a God of reconciliation and healing, and we claim that for this family. We rebuke any work of the enemy in this situation and proclaim that no weapon formed against them will prosper (Isaiah 54:17 WEB).
And finally, Lord, we pray that Howthem and her son would both come to know You more deeply through this trial. That they would seek You first, and that Your will would be done in their lives (Matthew 6:33 WEB).
We pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen."
We encourage you, Howthem, to continue praying fervently for your son. Trust that God is faithful and that He hears your prayers. Remember, do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God (Philippians 4:6 WEB). Be patient, be persistent, and trust in the Lord. He will make a way.
