We understand your concern for your boyfriend and we are here to pray with you and offer biblical guidance.
Firstly, we want to remind you of what the Apostle Paul says in Galatians 6:2, "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." It is commendable that you are seeking help for him in prayer.
However, we must also address this relationship in light of biblical principles. As believers, we are to pursue relationships that glorify God and align with His will. In 2 Corinthians 6:14, it is written, "Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?" This verse encourages us to be in relationships with fellow believers who share our faith and values. We encourage you to consider this in your relationship.
Now, let us pray for your boyfriend's struggles with alcohol and his current hardships.
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up this man who is struggling with alcohol addiction and the loss of his job and home. Lord, we know that You are a God of mercy and compassion. Please be with him in his time of need. Give him the strength to resist the urge to drink and to seek help. Guide him to resources and people who can support him in his journey to sobriety. Lord, we also pray for his spiritual well-being. If he does not know You, we pray that this trial will lead him to a personal relationship with You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We also encourage you to seek support and guidance from your local church or Christian community as you navigate this situation. Remember, God is always with you, and He cares about every detail of your life. As it is written in 1 Peter 5:7, "Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you."
Lastly, we want to address the seriousness of the issues at hand. Alcoholism and suicidal thoughts are severe problems that require professional help. We strongly urge you to encourage him to seek professional counseling and support. As believers, we trust in God's power to heal and restore, but we also recognize the importance of professional help in such cases.
