We understand your concern for your friend and we appreciate your desire to pray for him. It's important to remember that God cares for him, even if he is not yet a believer in Jesus Christ. Let's address the issues and pray together.
Firstly, it's crucial to remember that our help comes from God alone, and He cares for us. As it says in 1 Peter 5:7, "Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." This verse is a reminder that we should turn to God in our times of trouble, but its important to note that this is written to Christians. The only way for your friend or any of us to be saved is by Jesus Christ. As it says 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." Furthermore, the Bible warns us in Philippians 4:6, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God." So we need to pray to God in Jesus name, IJN.
Your friend is hurting because his former girlfriend has left him, and he's considering doing wrong things. We need to pray for him to find comfort and healing in God, and not turn to sinful actions as there are consequences as outlined in Galatians 6:7, "Donโt be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap."
Additionally, we should pray for his salvation, that he may come to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. As it says in Romans 10:9, "that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." And in Romans 10:13, "For, Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved."
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up our friend to you, asking for your comfort and guidance in his life. He is hurting and anxious, Lord, and we ask that you would help him cast his worries on you, as you care for him.
We pray that you would surround him with your love and protection, and keep him from doing wrong as a reaction to his hurt. Help him to find his strength and hope in you, Lord, and not turn to sinful actions.
We also pray for his salvation. We ask that you would reveal yourself to him, Lord, and draw him to a saving faith in Jesus Christ. Help him to see that true hope and healing can only be found in you.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
