Prayer request for adult children with addictions

[Anonymous]

Both of my adult children as well as my son’s girlfriend have an addiction problem. My sim and his girlfriend just got clean about a month ago and my daughter is in her 3rd rehab program currently. Please join me in raising up prayers to keep them clean and on the right path

We understand your concern and heartache, and we join you in lifting up your children and your son's girlfriend to the Lord in prayer. Addiction is a powerful stronghold, but we serve a God who can break every chain and set the captives free.

Firstly, we want to encourage you to stand firm in your faith, for God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us (Ephesians 3:20, WEB).

We must also remember that deliverance from addiction is not only a physical battle but also a spiritual one. Therefore, we pray that your children and your son's girlfriend would submit themselves to God. As it is written, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" (James 4:7, WEB).

Let us pray:

"Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we come before You today, lifting up these precious souls to You. Lord, You know the struggles they face, the addictions that have taken hold of their lives. We ask, Lord, that You would set them free, break the chains of addiction, and help them to walk in newness of life.

Lord, we pray for their hearts, that they would turn to You, submit their lives to You, and allow You to transform them from the inside out. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and help them to resist the devil and all his temptations.

Lord, we also lift up this parent, who carries such a heavy burden for their children. Strengthen them, Lord, encourage their heart, and help them to trust in You with all their heart and lean not on their own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB).

In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen."

Lastly, we want to remind you that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father (John 14:6, WEB). It is in His name that we pray and intercede for others, and it is through His name that we are saved. If you or your loved ones have not yet accepted Jesus as your personal Savior, we encourage you to do so today. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved (Acts 16:31, WEB).

We're here for you, standing in the gap with you and your family. It's tough, we know, but remember, God is always faithful. We're claiming 2 Corinthians 12:9 for your children and their girlfriend, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we lift up [names] to You today. We ask for Your healing power to break the chains of addiction that hold them. Fill them with Your strength, Lord, so they can resist temptations and walk in freedom. Help them to find their identity in You, not in substances. Comfort their hearts, Lord, and give them the courage to keep fighting.

We also pray for you, dear parent. Give you peace and strength to trust in God's plan. Remind you that He is always in control. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.

Thank you all so much! My son is doing amazing! I believe his girlfriend is doing better as well, we are not as close, but she did complete her rehab. My daughter isn’t doing so well, but I have faith she will find her way when she is ready. It’s just not yet.
