Please pray for my grandchild, he’s on a bad path. Cussing his great-grandmother and hitting her. He won’t come home, smokes pot, and she’s 72 and can’t handle him. She’s the one who’s raised him his whole life.

Our hearts are deeply grieved to hear about the struggles of your grandchild and the pain this is causing your family, especially his great-grandmother who has loved and raised him. This is not the path God desires for him, and we know the enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy—but Christ came to give life abundantly (John 10:10). This behavior is not only rebellious but dishonoring to God and to the family He has placed in his life. The Bible is clear that children are to honor their parents and elders, for this is right in the Lord’s sight (Ephesians 6:1-3). Cursing, violence, and disobedience are fruits of a heart that is not surrendered to Christ, and we must pray fervently for his repentance and salvation if he does not know the Lord.

The smoking of marijuana is also a form of bondage, and the Bible tells us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Substance abuse clouds the mind and opens doors to further sin and destruction. We must pray that the Lord breaks these chains in his life and draws him to Himself. His great-grandmother’s age and inability to manage his behavior also highlight the urgency of this situation—she should not be subjected to such mistreatment, and we pray the Lord provides wisdom, protection, and supernatural intervention for her.

Most importantly, we must ask: *Does this young man know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior?* If not, that is the root of the issue. Without Christ, there is no true transformation. The Bible says, *"There is no one righteous; no, not one"* (Romans 3:10) and *"All have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God"* (Romans 3:23). But the good news is that *"the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"* (Romans 6:23). If he has never surrendered his life to Christ, that is where the change must begin. If he has strayed from the faith, we must pray for his return, like the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32).

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with broken hearts, lifting up this young man who is walking in rebellion and bondage. Lord, You see the pain he is causing, the dishonor he is bringing upon his family, and the destruction he is inviting into his own life. We ask for Your mercy and intervention, Lord. If he does not know You, we pray that You would open his eyes to his need for a Savior. Convict his heart by Your Holy Spirit, and draw him to repentance. Break the chains of addiction, anger, and disobedience in his life, and replace them with Your peace, Your love, and Your truth.

Father, we pray for his great-grandmother, who has loved him faithfully. Strengthen her, protect her, and give her wisdom in how to handle this situation. Surround her with Your comfort and provision, and let her not be overwhelmed by fear or despair. We ask that You would place godly influences in this young man’s life—people who will speak Your truth to him and lead him toward You. If he has walked away from You, Lord, bring him back like the prodigal son. Let him come to his senses and return to the arms of his loving family—and most importantly, to You.

We rebuke the enemy’s hold on his life in the mighty name of Jesus. No weapon formed against him shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we declare that the Lord will complete the good work He has begun in him (Philippians 1:6). Give his family the words to speak, the actions to take, and the patience to endure. May this situation bring glory to Your name as You redeem what the enemy meant for harm.

We ask all this in the powerful and saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. Amen.

To the one who submitted this request: We encourage you to continue praying without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17) and to speak life and truth over your grandchild. Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9). If possible, seek wise counsel from your church or a biblical counselor on how to handle this situation practically. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and He hears your cries. Stand firm in faith, knowing that our God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20).

We're right there with you, sister, in prayer for your grandchild. It's heart-wrenching to see him on this path, causing pain to his great-grandmother who loves him dearly. We've been reminded of the prodigal son, and we hold onto the hope that our Heavenly Father is waiting with open arms for him to return.

We're asking the Lord to open your grandchild's eyes to the destruction he's inviting into his life. We pray for conviction by the Holy Spirit, leading to repentance and salvation if he doesn't know Jesus. We're believing for a breakthrough in his addiction and anger, and for the Lord to draw him to Himself.

Let's also pray for wisdom and strength for his great-grandmother. We ask the Lord to provide godly influences in his life, people who will speak truth and lead him back to the family - and most importantly, back to Jesus.

We claim the promise in Romans 6:23, that the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. We're believing for a turnaround in this situation, for glory to God, and for your family to be redeemed.

Keep praying, sister. We're standing with you, and we're believing for a miracle. Trust in the Lord, for He is faithful.
