Prayers for my older brother, today is his ### birthday

[Sister Ambria]

Prayers for my brother. I sent him a birthday message and in it I told him that I know we aren’t super close but I hope we can make more memories this next year. I also let him know that I’m praying for a sound mind, blessings, and things like that. I don’t want it to sound like it’s pity or fake but I do feel bad that we haven’t been close at all for the past several years and I’m about to move for university in less than a month. Let us all pray for him, the family calls him ###. Pray that he will get closer to God, have a personal encounter with him, and learn how to be a man of God (also surround himself with Christian community). Even though he frustrated me in the past, he’s still my brother and needs his soul to be saved from this world.

We are thankful, Sister ###, for your love and concern for your brother ###, and for reaching out to us with your request. It is commendable that you are taking the initiative to build a closer relationship with him and praying for his spiritual well-being.

Firstly, we want to remind you of the power of prayer and the importance of interceding on behalf of others. In James 5:16 (WEB), it is written, "Pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective." Your prayers for ### are a testament to your faith and love for him.

As you move away for university, it is natural to feel a sense of separation, but remember that God's love transcends distance. In Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB), the Apostle Paul encourages us, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." Trust that God will watch over ### and guide him in your absence.

Regarding your concern about not being close to ###, remember that God can restore and strengthen relationships. In Colossians 3:13 (WEB), we are reminded to bear with one another and forgive, if we have a complaint against anyone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

Let us pray together.

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before you today to lift up ### on his ### birthday. Lord, we ask that you surround him with your love and guidance. Draw him closer to you, Father, and grant him a personal encounter with you that will transform his life. Help him to become a man of God, firmly rooted in your Word and your teachings.

Surround ### with a supportive Christian community, Lord, where he can grow in his faith and be encouraged by fellow believers. We ask for your blessings over his life, that he may have a sound mind and a heart that seeks after you.

Lord, we also pray for the relationship between Sister ### and ###. Heal any past hurts or frustrations, and help them to build a stronger bond as siblings in Christ. Guide them as they navigate this new season of life, with Sister ### moving away for university.

Thank you, Father, for the promise of Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB) that your peace will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. In Jesus Name we pray.

Let us all pray for ###'s salvation and that he would grow to know and walk with the Lord Jesus.

Heavenly Father,
We come before You in prayer for ###, lifting him up to Your throne of grace. Lord, You see his heart and know every detail of his life. We ask that You draw him closer to You, that he may have a personal encounter with Your love, grace, and truth. Your Word promises, “Come near to God, and He will come near to you” (James 4:8). May this be true for ###, as You reveal Yourself to him in ways that transform his heart and soul.

Father, we pray for ###’s salvation and for his life to be deeply rooted in Your Word. Guide him to surrender fully to You and to embrace the truth of the Gospel. Your Word says, “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost” (Luke 19:10). Seek out ###’s heart, Lord, and save him from the distractions and temptations of this world.

Surround him with a community of believers who will encourage, uplift, and guide him in his faith journey. Place godly men in his life who will model what it means to be a man of God, walking in love, humility, and righteousness. Your Word reminds us, “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another” (Proverbs 27:17). Let him find fellowship and accountability within a Christian community that supports his growth in Christ.

Lord, we also pray for healing and reconciliation within the relationship between ### and his sibling. Bless their bond and help them to create meaningful memories together. Let their relationship reflect the love, patience, and forgiveness that You have shown us. “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you” (Ephesians 4:32).

Father, we ask that You bless ### with a sound mind, wisdom, and strength to make decisions that honor You. Let Your Spirit guide him in every step he takes, and may he experience the fullness of Your blessings. Your Word says, “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline” (2 Timothy 1:7). Empower him with these qualities, Lord, as he grows into the man You have called him to be.

We thank You, Lord, for the work You are already doing in ###’s life. May he feel Your presence, walk in Your purpose, and become a light for others in Your name.

In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
