We join with you in lifting up your son before the Lord, standing in agreement with your heartfelt cries for his complete healing and deliverance from the torment of PTSD. Your prayers are powerful, and we echo them before the throne of grace, knowing that our God is mighty to save, heal, and restore. It is beautiful to see you praying in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and the authority to command the enemy to flee. As you have declared, there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and it is in His name that we find victory over every stronghold of the enemy.
The trauma your son has endured is not God’s will for his life, but we serve a God who is greater than any wound, memory, or spiritual attack. The Lord promises in **Joel 2:25 (WEB)**, *“I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you.”* Though the enemy has sought to steal his peace, joy, and stability, our God is able to redeem what has been broken and fill him with a peace that surpasses all understanding. **Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB)** reminds 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.”* We claim this promise over your son, that the peace of God would guard his heart and mind, displacing every intrusive memory, fear, and trigger that seeks to bind him.
We also stand on **Isaiah 54:17 (WEB)**, which declares, *“No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me,” says Yahweh.* The blood of Jesus is our greatest defense, and we plead it over your son, knowing that it cleanses, protects, and breaks every curse the enemy has tried to place upon him. The Lord has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (**2 Timothy 1:7**). We rebuke every spirit of fear, anger, rage, and stubbornness that has taken root in his life, commanding them to leave in Jesus’ name. These things are not from the Lord, and they have no place in the life of one who is redeemed by the blood of the Lamb.
Yet, as we pray for the erasure of painful memories, we also ask the Lord to replace them with His truth and presence. While we do not know if God will supernaturally remove memories, we trust that He can heal their power over your son. **Psalm 147:3 (WEB)** tells us, *“He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.”* The Lord can restore what has been shattered and fill the voids with His love, joy, and purpose. We pray that your son would experience the reality of **Psalm 34:18 (WEB)**, *“Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.”* May he encounter the nearness of God in such a tangible way that his past no longer defines him, but rather, the love and identity he has in Christ.
We also pray for godly surroundings, as you have requested. The company we keep greatly influences our healing and walk with the Lord. **Proverbs 13:20 (WEB)** warns, *“One who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.”* We ask the Lord to surround your son with godly family, friends, and caregivers who will speak life into him, encourage him in the faith, and reflect the love of Christ. May these relationships be a source of strength and accountability, helping him to walk in victory and not in the shadows of his past.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue covering your son in prayer, for the prayers of the righteous are powerful and effective (**James 5:16**). Do not grow weary in interceding for him, for the Lord hears your cries and is at work, even when we cannot see it. Trust in His timing, for He is faithful to complete the good work He has begun (**Philippians 1:6**).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of faith, lifting up this precious son to You. Lord, You see the depths of his pain, the memories that haunt him, and the battles he faces within his mind and spirit. We ask You, in the mighty name of Jesus, to break the power of PTSD over his life. Erase the grip of every traumatic memory, every trigger that seeks to steal his peace, and every behavior that is not of You. Father, we rebuke the spirits of fear, anger, rage, and stubbornness, and we command them to flee and never return, in Jesus’ name. Let no weapon formed against him prosper, and let every tongue that rises against him be condemned.
Lord, we plead the blood of Jesus over him—over his mind, his emotions, his body, and his spirit. Cleanse him from every ungodly influence and fill him with Your Holy Spirit. Surround him with Your ministry angels, placing a hedge of protection around him that no enemy can penetrate. Clothe him in the full armor of God, that he may stand firm against every scheme of the devil.
Father, we ask that You saturate him with Your presence, Your peace, and Your joy. Let these be his portion, not just momentarily, but as a lasting reality in his life. Restore to him what the enemy has stolen—his joy, his confidence, his ability to live free from the shadows of his past. Replace every lie he has believed with Your truth, and let Your Word be a lamp to his feet and a light to his path.
We pray for godly influences in his life—family, friends, and caregivers who will love him as You do, who will speak life over him, and who will walk with him in faith. Bless his surroundings, his food, his travels, and every step he takes. Let him encounter Your goodness in every area of his life, and may he know beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is deeply loved by You.
Lord, we trust in Your power to heal and restore. We thank You that You are already at work in his life, and we declare that he will walk in the freedom and victory that Jesus purchased for him on the cross. Strengthen his mother as she intercedes for him, and let her faith be a testament to Your faithfulness.
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.
