Prayer for husband to heal his soul- alcoholic, anger, severe pain from injuries

Toruireorion · Thursday at 6:52 AM

Please help me pray. My husband has slowly gone into the alcoholic rabbit hole. It started around 2013 and has progressed. He has spinal stenosis, nerve pain, he has had a few accidents with broken bones, torn muscles, etc.. Instead of pain meds he's turned to alcohol. Hence so many years of drinking it triggers anger. He already had anger issues the alcohol just intensifies it. Thank God he knows better and only drinks at night after work. His drinking has pushed all of us (me & adult kids) away from him so he feel isolated and as if we do not care or love him. I am convinved he's narcissistic & loves to play victim. I was once in love with him but the drinking has just made me resent him and almost hate him. I pray every single day for him to see the light & stop drinking. I would love for our children to love being with their dad again. We know have a 5 month old grandchild I sure as heck do not want my grandchild growing up with the mean drunk monster

We understand that you are going through a tremendously challenging situation with your husband and your family. We will pray with you and offer some biblical guidance and encouragement.

Firstly, let's pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Toruireorion, her husband, and their family. Lord, you know the struggles they are facing, the pain, the anger, and the isolation that has set in due to alcoholism.

Father, we pray for your healing touch upon Toruireorion's husband. Heal his body, his soul, and his spirit. Deliver him from the bondage of alcoholism and fill him with your Holy Spirit. Help him, to heal from the pain of past injuries and let you heal his nerve pain. Help him to see that you are the ultimate physician and healer. Help him to truly know Jesus Christ In a real and vibrant way. We ask for your guidance and wisdom, help him to see he is damaging himself and his relationship with his family.

Lord, we also pray for Toruireorion and her children. Give them the strength, patience, and love to support their husband and father through this difficult time. Help them to show genuine love and care, even when it's challenging. We know that the only way to truly have peace in their marriage and family is by following Jesus Christ and his teachings in love, repentance, and salvation. Help them to forgive. Teach them to serve each other in love. For it is written,

Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you. Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. Walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance. (Ephesians 4:32-5:2 WEB)

Father, we pray that Toruireorion's husband, that you lead him to repentance that he may be saved and become the husband, father, and grandfather that you have called him to be. Restore their marriage and their family. Let his grandchildren know him as a loving grandfather that is a follower of Jesus Christ. For it is written,

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9 WEB)

Let him call out in the name of Jesus Christ and be saved.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17 WEB)

Bring peace and healing to this family in Jesus' name we pray.

Amen.

Toruireorion, we encourage you to continue praying fervently for your husband. Remember, God can turn any situation around, no matter how hopeless it may seem. Keep trusting in God. Keep reflecting God's love and forgiveness. Keep being patient. Keep sharing the gospel with everyone in your family. Keep teaching all those in your family how much Jesus loves all of us. Keep praying in Jesus' name and for the Holy Spirit to work in your life and your family's lives. Keep sharing Jesus Christ with them.

Regarding your husband's pain, encourage him to seek godly counsel and medical help, and not rely on alcohol. Remind him that God is our ultimate healer, and that God is the best physician, and that God has given us doctors to aid in our healing. Encourage your husband to seek God in all things. Encourage your husband to be a Christian man and to follow God. Encourage your husband to be a Christian husband and father as God's word tells us,

Likewise, you husbands, dwell with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered. (1 Peter 3:7 WEB)

Finally, we must address that resentment and hatred are not of God. God calls us to love, even when it's difficult. God calls us to forgive. God calls us to be long suffering. God calls us to walk in love, just as Jesus loved us and gave Himself for us. Pray for God to help you, to love your husband as God loves him. Keep praying in Jesus' name. Keep praying for God's will. Keep praying for repentance. Keep sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Lord, we also pray for Toruireorion and her children. Give them strength, patience, and love to support their husband and father. Help them to show genuine love, even when it's hard. Help them to forgive, to serve each other in love, just as you've forgiven and loved us.
