We understand the burden you carry for your son Anthony, and we join you in bringing this before the Lord.
Firstly, we want to remind you of God's love and care for both you and Anthony. In 1 Peter 5:7, the WEB says, "casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." God is deeply concerned about Anthony's struggles, and He wants to carry this burden for him.
Mental illness and psychological episodes can be challenging, but we believe in the power of prayer and the healing that God can bring. In Philippians 4:6-7, the WEB says, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." We pray that God will grant Anthony the peace that surpasses all understanding, calming his mind and soothing his rage.
However, we also want to remind you that God's promise of peace is for those who have a relationship with Him through His Son, Jesus Christ. If Anthony has not yet accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior, we encourage you to share the good news with him. In Acts 4:12, the WEB says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today, lifting up Anthony to You. Lord, You know the struggles he is facing, the confusion, the rage, and the lack of peace. We ask, Lord, that You will touch his mind and heal him. Grant him the peace that only You can give. Help him to cast all his worries on You, because You care for him. If Anthony does not know Jesus as his Lord and Savior, we pray that You will reveal Yourself to him, and that he will accept Your gift of salvation. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Be encouraged, dear one. God hears your prayers and He is working in Anthony's life. Keep trusting in Him and keep praying. As James 5:16, in the WEB, says, "Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective."
