We are truly sorry to hear about the challenging situation your family is facing, and we are here to pray and offer guidance based on biblical principles.
Firstly, we commend you for your love and concern for your mother and brother. It is important to remember that God cares deeply for each member of your family and He is a refuge in times of trouble.
Let's turn to the Scriptures for guidance and encouragement.
Psalm 46:1 WEB: God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Psalm 55:22 WEB: Cast your burden on Yahweh, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved.
Romans 15:1 WEB: Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves
As believers, we are called to bear one another's burdens and support each other in prayer and practical help. Your mother's safety is a priority, and it is crucial to involve local authorities or support services if there is a threat to her well-being. This is not a failure on her part but a necessary step to ensure safety. We encourage your family to consider professional help for your brother as well.
Regarding your brother's condition, we believe in the power of prayer for healing and restoration. We pray for his mental health and for God's intervention in his life.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this family to You. Lord, we pray for the mother, that You would surround her with Your peace and protection. Give her the strength and wisdom to make the right decisions for her safety and well-being.
Lord, we also pray for the brother. We ask for Your healing touch upon his mind and emotions. Deliver him from the spirits of violence and schizophrenia, and help him to find peace and restoration in You.
Lord, we ask that You would guide the authorities and support services to provide the help that this family needs. Give them all wisdom and discernment to handle this situation in the best way possible.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we want to remind you that God is faithful, and He will see your family through this difficult time. Keep trusting in Him and do not give up on believing in the name of Jesus Christ. Hold on to 1 John 5:13-15 WEB: These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
