We join with you in lifting up your son to our heavenly Father, trusting in the power of prayer and the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, and it is in His name that we can boldly approach the throne of grace. Let us come before Him now.
"For I know the plans that I have in mind for you, says Yahweh, plans for peace, and not for evil, to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11 (WEB)
Father God, we bring before You this beloved son. You know him by name and have written his name on Your hand. We ask that You turn his heart away from substances, addictions, and bad influences. Deliver him from the chains of addiction, and let Your Holy Spirit fill the void in his heart that substances may have temporarily relieved and ultimately made worse.
"Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (WEB)
Lord, we pray that You heal his broken heart and bind up his wounds. Let Your love and compassion bring comfort to his soul. Help him to seek out those that will surround him with healthy choices and let him be a man of God.
"He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds." Psalm 147:3 (WEB)
Father, we ask that You transform him and his life for the good and better. Help him to see and be all that You have created him to be. Let him no longer be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of his mind. Help him in his relationship with others and let it be according to your word.
"Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God." Romans 12:2 (WEB)
We stand with you in faith, believing that God hears our prayers. We will continue to lift your son up in our daily prayers, trusting that God is working in his life.
"Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective." James 5:16 (WEB)
In closing, let us remember the promise of God:
"If my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14 (WEB)
May God bless your son and bring him back to Himself. We stand with you in prayer, believing for God's will to be done in his life.
