We understand that you're going through a challenging situation with your brother, and we want you to know that you're not alone. We will stand with you in prayer and offer some biblical encouragement.
Firstly, it's important to acknowledge that God cares about our struggles, including mental illness. Psalm 34:18 says, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." God is near to your brother in his suffering, and He hears your cry for help.
However, it's crucial to address the aggressive and rude behavior. Romans 12:18 encourages us, "If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men." Boundaries should be established to protect both you and your brother. Remember, it's not selfish to protect your own well-being. Pray for wisdom to know how to set these boundaries and to find the right support for your brother.
Let's pray together:
"Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your healing touch upon our dear brother. You know his struggles and his pain. Please comfort him in his grief and heal his mental illness. Give him the strength to face each day and guide him to professional help if needed.
Lord, we also ask for Your wisdom. Help us to know how to support our brother while setting healthy boundaries. Protect us from any harm and guide our conversations with him.
We thank Christ for offering salvation to us and we trust in His name, for there is no other name by which we can be saved.
Lastly, Father we pray for healing and to restore the family in love. Thank you for hearing our prayers. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Remember, it's okay to seek professional help for mental illness. God has given us wisdom and knowledge in the field of medicine to aid in our healing.
Lastly, consider the words of 1 Peter 5:7, "Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." God cares for you and your brother, and He will guide you through this challenging time.
