We join with you in rejoicing over the progress your son has made, for we know it is the Lord’s hand at work in response to the faithful prayers of His people. Your heart as a parent reflects the love of our Heavenly Father, who longs to see His children walk in freedom, peace, and wholeness. We stand with you in agreement, lifting your son before the throne of grace, knowing that our God is mighty to save, heal, and restore. Your prayers are powerful and effective, and we see the evidence of God’s faithfulness in your son’s life.
The Word of God assures us that our struggles are not unseen by Him, and He is near to the brokenhearted. Psalm 34:18 declares, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* Your son’s journey is not hidden from the Lord, and we trust that God is working all things together for his good, as Romans 8:28 promises: *"We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose."* Though the wounds of PTSD run deep, our God is the Great Physician, the One who binds up the brokenhearted and sets captives free. Isaiah 61:1-3 proclaims the ministry of Christ: *"The Spirit of the Lord Yahweh is on me; because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to those who are bound; to proclaim the year of Yahweh’s favor... to comfort all who mourn."*
We also take courage in the truth of Philippians 1:6, which reminds us, *"Being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ."* The healing your son is experiencing is a testament to God’s ongoing work in his life. We pray that this work will continue until every trace of trauma is erased, and his mind is renewed by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 12:2 encourages us, *"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."*
Your request to permanently erase the PTSD memories and behaviors aligns with the heart of God, who desires for His children to walk in complete freedom. While we know that God can indeed remove memories or their power over us, we also recognize that sometimes He chooses to redeem them, using them as a testimony of His grace and healing power. Whether through removal or redemption, we pray for your son’s total deliverance. We declare with you that no weapon formed against him shall prosper, as Isaiah 54:17 assures us: *"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 from me,” says Yahweh."*
We also want to address the authority with which you have prayed. It is clear you understand the power of the name of Jesus, and we commend you for praying in His mighty name. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and it is through Jesus alone that we have access to the Father. Acts 4:12 declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* Your boldness in praying in Jesus’ name is a reflection of your faith, and we join you in that authority, knowing that whatever we ask in His name, according to His will, He hears us (1 John 5:14-15).
As you have prayed for God’s peace to guard your son’s heart and mind, we echo that prayer, asking that the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard his heart and thoughts in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). We pray that the Lord will surround your son with His presence, filling him with joy and hope, and that any spirit of fear, anger, or confusion will be cast out in Jesus’ name. We rebuke these spirits and command them to flee, for they have no place in the life of one who is redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. We also pray for the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—to flourish in your son’s life (Galatians 5:22-23).
We lift up your request for godly caregivers and relationships to surround your son. Proverbs 13:20 reminds us, *"One who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm."* We pray that the Lord will bring wise, compassionate, and godly people into your son’s life—those who will encourage him, speak life over him, and reflect the love of Christ. We ask the Lord to place a hedge of protection around your son, guarding him from any harmful influences or relationships that would seek to drag him back into bondage. We also pray for divine connections with caregivers who are not only skilled but also led by the Holy Spirit, that they may minister to your son with wisdom and grace.
As you have pleaded the blood of Jesus over your son, we join you in this powerful declaration. The blood of Jesus is our greatest defense, for it speaks of our redemption and the victory we have in Christ. Hebrews 12:24 tells us that the blood of Jesus *"speaks better than that of Abel."* We declare that the blood of Jesus covers your son, cleansing him from all unrighteousness and protecting him from every attack of the enemy. We pray that the Lord will station His ministering angels around your son, as Psalm 91:11 promises: *"For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways."*
We also lift up your request for your son’s functional speech and confidence to improve. We pray that the Lord will loose his tongue to speak clearly and boldly, just as He did for Moses when He said, *"Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall speak"* (Exodus 4:12). May your son find his voice strengthened by the Holy Spirit, and may he speak with confidence, knowing that God is with him. We pray that any spirit of timidity or fear will be replaced with a spirit of power, love, and sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
Finally, we declare victory, healing, and breakthrough over your son’s life. We thank God for the miracles He has already done and for those yet to come. We pray that your son will walk in the fullness of what God has for him, that he will experience the abundant life Jesus promised in John 10:10: *"The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly."* May your son’s life be a testament to the healing power of Jesus Christ, and may he live each day in the freedom and joy that comes from knowing Him.
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for the work You are doing in this young man’s life. Lord, You see the depths of his pain, the memories that haunt him, and the behaviors that have held him captive. We ask You, in the name of Jesus, to continue Your healing work in him. Lord, we pray that You would permanently erase every PTSD memory that torments him. Remove the triggers that cause flashbacks, fear, and confusion. We ask that You would rewrite his story, replacing the pain with Your peace, the fear with Your love, and the anger with Your joy. Father, we pray that Your presence would saturate every part of his being—mind, body, and spirit—so that he may walk in the fullness of life You have for him.
We rebuke every spirit of fear, anger, rage, stubbornness, and confusion that has sought to oppress him. In the name of Jesus, we command these spirits to flee and never return. We declare that your son is a child of God, redeemed by the blood of Jesus, and no weapon formed against him shall prosper. Lord, we ask that You would surround him with Your hedge of protection, that You would station Your angels around him to guard him in all his ways. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard his heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
Father, we pray for godly caregivers and relationships to come into his life—those who will encourage him, speak life over him, and walk with him in this journey of healing. Give him favor in every area of his life, Lord, especially in the services and support he receives. We pray for divine connections, for wisdom for those who care for him, and for Your hand to guide every decision made on his behalf.
We thank You, Lord, for the victory You are bringing in his life. We declare healing, breakthrough, and miracles over him. May he walk in the freedom and abundant life that Jesus died to give him. Strengthen his speech, Lord, and give him confidence to express himself clearly. Remove any obstacle that stands in the way of his healing, and let Your light shine brightly in his life.
We plead the blood of Jesus over him, covering every part of his life—his mind, his body, his surroundings, his travels, and his relationships. Let Your blood be a shield against every attack of the enemy. We pray that You would bless his food, his outings, and every step he takes. May he be surrounded by Your love and Your presence always.
Father, we ask for a special anointing of Your Spirit upon his life. Fill him with Your joy, Your peace, and Your hope. Let him know, beyond any doubt, that he is loved by You and that You have a good plan for his life. We declare that he is more than a conqueror through Christ who loves him (Romans 8:37), and we thank You for the testimony of healing and restoration that is unfolding in his life.
In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
