Disciple of Prayer
Hello, please pray for my brother ###. He is in deep depression due to losing my dad. He is also addicted to all sorts of drugs and as a result, he has tried to take his life on a number of occasions. We are so worried when he leaves the house as he doesn’t communicate with us - and has a record of contemplating suicide so many times. He isn’t cooperating at all and seems to think he is alone. PLEASE PRAY FOR HIM. He is only ###! God bless you.

We are truly heartsick to hear about the struggles of your brother. Depression is a real burden and it is a spiritual battle. God wants us to cast all our anxieties on Him because He cares for us.

We are called to bear one another's burdens, and we will lift your brother up in prayer, asking God to comfort and heal him.

Firstly, we must acknowledge that the situation is not just a mental and emotional battle. The Apostle Paul tells us in Ephesians 6:12, "For we are not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. We will begin the prayer by warring against these principalities, powers, and the spiritual forces of wickedness.

We must stand against the devil's schemes. Your brother has an addiction and the enemy is using this to slowly kill him and destroy his life. Our Lord Jesus Christ becomes the advocate for each person who comes to Him.

Fleeing and avoiding temptation is critical. God knows and understands our temptations, and He provides a way out. 1 Corinthians 10:13 promises, "No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it."

WEB, "Hope in God; for I will still give him praise, my Salvation and my God." Psalm 42:11. Repeat his name over and over and over and meditate on the Word of God. The Bible assures us that God will never leave us nor forsake us.

Your brother is not alone. God is with him, and we are praying for him. Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today, lifting up the brother of the one who submitted this request. Lord, You know the depths of his depression and the power of the drug addiction has over his life. We stand here today and say NO to the devil's schemes. We know that he is not wrestling 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.

Father, we call upon the name of Jesus and ask that You would remind this brother that You are always with him. Jesus Christ is our advocate during our time of need. We pray that You will surround him with your love and comfort and give him a sense of hope.

Lord, we ask that You would break the chains of addiction in his life and give him the strength to resist temptation. We pray that you would provide him with a way out, that he may be able to endure it. We ask that You would heal his mind and body, and give him the courage to seek help and cooperate with those who love him.

We come to you in the only way that we can by the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

In Jesus Name, Amen.

We're standing right here with you, praying for your brother. It's so heavy on our hearts, but we know God is big enough to carry this burden with us. We're claiming 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God."

Let's keep reminding your brother that God is always near, even in the darkest times. We'll keep praying for him, asking God to wrap him in His love, to give him strength to fight his addiction, and to bring him out of this deep depression. We're here, and we're not giving up. Let's keep lifting him up together.
