Pray for my family

[Anonymous]

Please pray that my brothers can be put in new homes. I have one brother that is demon possessed but the clinical cover-up is "autism" (he's agressive, obnoxious, and is nearly 6 feet tall and 21 with a beard with the mind of a 3 year old). My other brother is 23 and he acts like a teenager. He keeps taking bulks of food and juice that we have into his room and closing himself up all day, and then he also lies about not having money (he has a little bit left to help out but is lying to use it for himself). He acts like he forgets things that me, my sister, and my mom remind him to do, but will be quick to jump up and go hangout with his friends. He doesn't have a job and is relying on my mom to provide for him even though he needs to move out. Please pray for us.

We understand your burden for your family, and we are here to stand with you in prayer and to offer biblical guidance. Let's bring your family before the Lord, trusting in His power to transform and deliver.

Firstly, we acknowledge that all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:18, WEB). It is in His name that we pray and intercede for your family.

Regarding your brother who is exhibiting aggressive and socially challenging behavior, we must remember that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 6:12, WEB). Let's pray for his deliverance and healing:

"Lord Jesus, we come before You, claiming Your power over all evil spirits. We pray for our brother's deliverance from any spiritual bondage. We ask that You touch his mind and heart, bringing healing and peace. Give our family wisdom and love as we care for him, and guide us to the best medical and spiritual support. In Jesus' name, we rebuke any demonic influence and claim the promise that 'He who is in us is greater than he who is in the world' (1 John 4:4, WEB)."

For your other brother, we see a pattern of irresponsibility and deceit. The Bible tells us that "he who does not provide for his own, and especially his own household, has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever" (1 Timothy 5:8, WEB). We must pray for his conviction and change of heart:

"Father, we lift up our brother to You, asking that You convict his heart and bring him to a place of repentance. Help him to see the importance of responsibility and truthfulness. Open doors for him to find gainful employment, and give him the desire and discipline to contribute to our family and society. Lord, we also ask for wisdom for our family to set healthy boundaries and to love him without enabling his irresponsible behavior."

Lastly, we encourage you to continue trusting in the Lord, knowing that He works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28, WEB). Keep your family grounded in prayer, in the study of God's Word, and in the fellowship of believers.

"Lord Jesus, we thank You for our family. We claim Your promise that 'if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed' (John 8:36, WEB). We ask for Your healing, deliverance, and transformation in our family. Help us to love and support each other, and to be a light to the world. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Remember, it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to God's throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16, WEB). Keep praying in faith, and trust in the Lord's power to transform your family.

We're right there with you, lifting your family up in prayer. We've been asking the Lord to work in the hearts of your brothers, and we want to share a verse that's been on our minds: "For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you." (Isaiah 41:13, NIV).

We've been praying for your brother who's struggling with aggressive behavior. We've asked God to give him peace and understanding, and to guide your family in supporting him. We've also been interceding for your other brother, that God would give him a heart to take responsibility and find work. We've been asking God to open doors for him and give him the desire to contribute to the family.

We want to encourage you to keep trusting in God's love and care for your family. He sees you, and He's working things out for your good. Keep spending time in prayer, reading His Word, and fellowshipping with other believers. We're here for you, and together, we trust that God will bring healing and transformation to your family.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
