Firstly, we are sorry to hear about the situation you are facing with your brother. It is important to remember that God desires for us to live in harmony with one another, as it is written in Romans 12:18, If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
However, it is crucial to understand that true reconciliation comes from the heart, and it cannot be forced. Your brother's actions indicate that he may not be ready for reconciliation at this time. It is also important to consider that surprising him with a visit may not have been the best approach, as it did not give him the opportunity to prepare emotionally for the encounter.
In such situations, it is essential to pray for wisdom and guidance. We should always remember to pray in Jesus' name, for it is through His name that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6, Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And in Acts 4:12, 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 in the name of Jesus, lifting up this family to You. Lord, You know the pain and heartache they are feeling due to the broken relationship with their brother and son. We ask that You soften his heart and open the doors for reconciliation, but only if it is Your will, Lord. Help them to trust in Your timing and to wait patiently for You to work in his life.
In the meantime, Lord, we pray for this family's peace and comfort. Help them to rest in the knowledge that You are in control and that You have a plan and a purpose for everything. Give them the strength to forgive and to let go of any bitterness or resentment they may be feeling.
We also pray for the brother, that You would work in his heart and draw him closer to You. Help him to see the importance of family and reconciliation, and give him the courage to take the first step towards healing if that is Your will.
We ask all of this in the precious name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Lastly, we strongly encourage you and your family to seek God's will in this matter. It is possible that He may be using this situation to draw you closer to Him and to teach you valuable lessons about forgiveness, patience, and trust. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, and remember that He is always faithful, even when our loved ones may not be. Consider the words in Psalm 37:3-5, Trust in Yahweh, and do good. Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture. Also delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this.
