We join you in lifting up this precious soul to our Heavenly Father, and we are deeply moved by your fervent, faith-filled intercession for him. It is beautiful to see your heart crying out to Jesus with such boldness and trust in His power to heal, restore, and protect. You have covered so much in your prayer—his mind, his behaviors, his surroundings, his caregivers, and his spiritual well-being—and we echo these petitions before the throne of grace, knowing that our God is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that we ask or think.
The trauma this individual has endured is not hidden from the Lord, who sees every tear, every fear, and every wound inflicted by the enemy. PTSD is a heavy burden, one that can feel overwhelming and unending, but we serve a God who specializes in redemption and restoration. He is the God who parts seas, raises the dead, and renews minds. While we pray for the complete erasure of these painful memories, we also ask the Lord to fill the void with His peace, His truth, and His presence so that even if traces of the past linger, they hold no power over him. The Apostle Paul reminds us in **2 Corinthians 10:4-5 (WEB)**, *"For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ."* We declare that every stronghold of fear, anger, and confusion in his mind is being demolished by the power of the Holy Spirit, and we pray that his thoughts would be captive to the truth of Christ.
We also take note of your plea for his behaviors—especially those tied to eating, driving, and community interactions—to be free from triggers. It is clear that these moments are particularly vulnerable for him, and we ask the Lord to surround him with His angels, as you’ve prayed, to guard him in these times. **Psalm 34:7 (WEB)** assures us, *"The angel of Yahweh encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them."* May he feel that divine encampment in every moment of his day, and may the Lord grant him a supernatural calm that transcends understanding.
Your prayer for godly caregivers and surroundings is so vital. We know that the enemy often seeks to isolate and exploit those who are vulnerable, but we declare that the Lord is raising up a hedge of protection around this man, filling his life with people who reflect Christ’s love, patience, and wisdom. **Proverbs 13:20 (WEB)** tells us, *"One who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm."* We pray that every person the Lord places in his life would be a vessel of wisdom, encouragement, and godly influence, and that any who would seek to harm or hinder would be removed by the Lord’s hand.
You’ve also prayed for his independence and the restoration of activities that bring him joy and empowerment. This is a beautiful petition, as our God delights in seeing His children walk in freedom and purpose. **Jeremiah 29:11 (WEB)** reminds us, *"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future."* We ask the Lord to restore to him the ability to engage in the things that bring him life, that he would experience the dignity of independence, and that his days would be filled with moments of joy that overshadow the pain of the past.
One thing we must gently address is the use of "###" in place of his name. While we understand the desire for privacy, we want to encourage you to speak his name before the Lord if possible. There is power in calling him by name in prayer, just as Jesus calls each of us by name. **Isaiah 43:1 (WEB)** says, *"But now thus says Yahweh who created you, Jacob, and he who formed you, Israel: ‘Don’t be afraid, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by your name. You are mine.’"* If you are uncomfortable sharing his name publicly, we encourage you to speak it boldly in your private prayers, claiming his identity as a beloved child of God.
We also want to affirm your authority in Christ to rebuke the enemy and command these tormenting spirits to flee. **James 4:7 (WEB)** tells us, *"Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* Your stance against the enemy is powerful because it is rooted in the authority of Jesus’ name. We stand with you in this, declaring that no weapon formed against him shall prosper, and that every tongue that rises against him in judgment shall be condemned (**Isaiah 54:17**). The blood of Jesus is indeed his covering, and we plead that blood over every aspect of his life—his mind, his body, his spirit, and his surroundings.
Lastly, we want to lift you up as well. Your heart for this individual is a reflection of Christ’s love, and we know that interceding for him in this way is not without its own emotional and spiritual weight. We pray that the Lord would refresh you, strengthen you, and fill you with His peace as you continue to stand in the gap. **Galatians 6:9 (WEB)** encourages us, *"Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up."* May the Lord give you endurance and joy as you persist in prayer, and may you see the fruit of your faithfulness in His perfect timing.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for Your faithfulness and power. We thank You that You are a God who hears, who sees, and who acts on behalf of Your children. Lord, we lift up this precious man to You, asking for Your healing touch to permeate every part of his being. We pray that You would erase the traumatic memories that haunt him, that You would sever every tie the enemy has to his mind and emotions, and that You would fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Let Your presence be so tangible to him that fear, anger, and confusion have no place to take root.
Lord, we ask for Your protection over his daily life—when he eats, when he drives, when he is out in the community. Surround him with Your angels, Lord, and let them minister to him in ways that bring comfort and security. We pray for godly caregivers, godly friendships, and godly family to be placed in his life, people who will reflect Your love and patience and who will help him walk in freedom. Remove any who would seek to harm or hinder his progress, and let Your light shine brightly through those You have chosen to walk beside him.
Father, we declare restoration over his independence and his ability to engage in the activities that bring him joy and purpose. Let him experience the dignity of living fully, empowered by Your Spirit to overcome every obstacle. We rebuke the spirits of PTSD, fear, rage, and confusion, and we command them to flee in Jesus’ name, never to return. Let Your blood, Jesus, be his covering, his protection, and his cleansing, and let no weapon formed against him prosper.
Lord, we also lift up the one who has been faithfully interceding for him. Strengthen them, Lord, and fill them with Your peace and joy. Let them see the fruit of their prayers and be encouraged as they continue to stand in the gap. Remind them that their labor in prayer is not in vain, and that You are working all things together for good.
We thank You, Father, for Your promises of healing, restoration, and victory. We trust in Your timing and Your ways, and we declare that this man’s life is being transformed by Your power. Let him be a beacon of Your light, a testament to Your goodness, and a vessel of Your love wherever he goes. We ask all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
