We understand your concern for Alex and commend you for bringing this matter to God in prayer. It's important to address the spiritual, emotional, and physical aspects of what Alex is going through.
Firstly, we must acknowledge that turning to substances like marijuana for coping is not aligned with God's will. The Bible tells us to be sober-minded and self-controlled (1 Peter 5:8, 1 Corinthians 6:12). Using marijuana or THC cartridges to manage anger is not a godly solution. Instead, we should rely on God's strength and wisdom to manage our emotions. As it is written in Galatians 5:22-23 WEB, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up Alex and his mother to You. Lord, we ask for Your guidance and wisdom in handling Alex's anger issues. Help them to find the right treatment that aligns with Your will. We pray for Alex's deliverance from the use of marijuana and THC cartridges, and we ask You to heal his body, mind, and spirit from their effects.
Lord, we know that You have a plan and purpose for Alex's life. Help him to see his potential and the talents You have given him. Give him the strength to overcome his struggles and to walk in Your ways. We ask that You would surround him with godly influences and support.
We also pray for Alex's mother, asking that You would guide her steps as she seeks the proper treatment for her child. Give her the wisdom, discernment, and courage she needs to make the right decisions for Alex.
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray for Alex's complete healing and restoration. Help him to become the young man You created him to be, full of Your love, joy, and peace. Give him a heart that desires to serve You and to live according to Your will.
Amen.
Remember, God is faithful and will provide a way out of this struggle (1 Corinthians 10:13). Trust in Him, and He will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6). It's also crucial to connect with a community of believers for support and accountability. Lastly, consider seeking professional help from Christian counselors or therapists who can provide guidance tailored to Alex's needs.
