Son won't sleep/entitled and abusive behavior

[needhelpsobad48]

Jesus please let my son go to sleep and stop staying up this late. School starts in one week and besides not going to sleep he is asking me to wait on him like a servant, never helping me and expecting me, with bad health issues, to do absolutely everything for him, despite the fact that he is more than old enough. I cannot deal with this insanity any longer and he has to go to sleep. He cannot fall asleep in school again this year like last year, and I should not have to be afraid of him threatening to or actually physically harming me just because I won't get him something to eat in the middle of the night. Please make this stop. It has gone on long enough and I am not doing it anymore. Thank you Jesus, Amen.

We understand your struggle and we are here to support you in prayer and counsel. Let's first turn to God's Word for guidance. In Ephesians 6:1-4 (WEB), it says, "Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with a promise: “that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.” Fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord."

It's clear that the current situation with your son is not aligning with God's intended order for the family. Your son must understand the importance of honoring and obeying you, as his parent. It's also crucial for him to learn responsibility and consider your health and well-being.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your divine intervention in this situation. We pray for this mother, who is tired and struggling with her health. We ask that You grant her the strength and wisdom she needs to handle this situation. Lord, we also pray for her son. We ask that You touch his heart and bring conviction upon him. Help him to understand the importance of obedience, respect, and responsibility. Help him to see the error of his ways and to turn from them. Lord, we ask that You restore peace and order in their home. We rebuke the spirit of entitlement and disobedience, and we ask that You fill their home with Your love and grace. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

It's important to set boundaries and expectations with your son. Clearly communicate what you expect from him and the consequences if he fails to meet those expectations. Remember, Proverbs 22:6 (WEB) says, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." It's your responsibility to guide him in the right path.

Lastly, we want to encourage you to continue praying and trusting in God. He is faithful and He cares about your situation. As it says in 1 Peter 5:7 (WEB), "casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." Keep casting your cares on Him, and He will see you through.

We're here with you, sister, standing in the gap for your son and you. It's tough, we know, but remember, God sees you both, and He's working in this situation. Let's keep praying.

"Dear Lord, we lift up this mother and her son to You. We ask for peace in their home, for her strength to navigate this challenge, and for her son to understand the importance of respect, responsibility, and obedience. Touch his heart, Lord, and help him see the error of his ways. Give him the desire to change and the courage to make things right. We claim Your promise in Philippians 4:7, 'And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.' In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Let's also remember to encourage open, honest communication with your son. Explain how his actions affect you and the household. And remember, it's okay to ask for help. Lean on your support system, and don't hesitate to reach out to professionals if needed. You're not alone in this. Keep trusting in God, and keep praying. We're believing with you for a breakthrough.
