We are truly sorry to hear about the struggles your brother and family are facing due to his mental illness. We will stand with you in prayer and offer some biblical encouragement.
Firstly, we commend your faith in calling upon the name of Jesus Christ for help. It is only through His name that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother who is struggling with mental illness. Lord, You know the depths of his suffering and the impact it has on his family. We ask for Your divine intervention, that You would touch his mind and bring healing and peace.
Lord, we also pray for his mother and the family, that You would grant them strength, wisdom, and patience as they care for him. Help them to love and support him in a way that honors You, and give them the grace they need to endure this trial.
Father, we know that You are able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us (Ephesians 3:20 WEB). We ask for Your will to be done in our brother's life, and for Your glory to be revealed through this situation.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue praying fervently for your brother, as the effective prayer of the righteous can accomplish much (James 5:16 WEB). Also, consider the words of Paul in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 WEB, "He has said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me. Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong."
Lastly, we urge you to seek godly counsel and medical advice for your brother. While we pray for divine healing, we also recognize that God often uses doctors and medicine to bring about His purposes.
Be strong and courageous, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go (Joshua 1:9 WEB).
