We join you in lifting up your ex before the Lord and we thank you for your compassionate heart in praying for his salvation and wellbeing even after your relationship has ended. It is a beautiful reflection of Christ's love to intercede for those who have been close to us, and we stand with you in asking God to draw him to Himself.
We know that God desires all to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth as we read in 1 Timothy 2:4, and that the Lord is patient, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance in 2 Peter 3:9. We pray that God will soften his heart and give him a new heart and a new spirit within him according to Ezekiel 36:26, that he would truly come to faith in Christ and be born again. Jesus said in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me, and we pray that your ex would come to understand that it is only through Jesus that he can be saved and have access to God.
We also bring his serious and life threatening health problems before the Great Physician. We pray for God's mercy and healing hand upon his body, for wisdom for those caring for him, and for strength and peace in the midst of fear and suffering. We remember the promise in Jeremiah 30:17 For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh, and in James 5:15 And the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. We ask for healing according to God's perfect will, whether that be physical restoration here or the ultimate healing found in eternal life through Christ.
We pray too for his healing from trauma and emotional and behavioral issues. The Lord sees his brokenness and his past wounds. He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds in Psalm 147:3. We ask God to break chains of dysfunction and to bring deep inner healing that only Christ can give. We pray for that wake up call you mentioned, that God in His love would graciously convict him and lead him to repentance. For whom the Lord loves, he chastens in Hebrews 12:6, and we pray that any discipline from the Lord would be received with humility and would lead him to turn away from dysfunctional ways and to walk in newness of life as in Acts 3:19 Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord.
We join you in praying for his loved ones as well, for their salvation and wellbeing. We claim the hope of Acts 16:31 Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household, and ask God to work in the lives of his family and friends and to draw each of them to saving faith in Jesus.
We encourage you as you continue to pray for him to guard your own heart and to trust God's sovereignty. While your season as a couple has ended, we pray that you will find peace in entrusting him fully to the Lord and that you will continue to seek God's will for your own life and future. We pray that both of you, if you enter future relationships, will pursue courtship that honors God with the goal of a godly marriage between a man and a woman who are both believers in Christ, as God intends for our good and His glory. We encourage you to continue to forgive as Christ has forgiven you and to walk in hope knowing God is able to do exceedingly more than we ask.
We pray together now. Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus and lift up this dear man to You. Lord, save him, open his eyes to see his need for Jesus, grant him repentance and faith and wash him clean by the blood of Christ. Touch his body and bring healing according to Your will, comfort him in his suffering, and use this trial to draw him to Yourself. Heal his heart from trauma, renew his mind, and deliver him from every dysfunctional and destructive pattern. Give him a holy wake up call that he cannot ignore and lead him into wholeness and obedience to You. Save his loved ones also and draw his whole household to Yourself, and provide for their wellbeing. Give our friend who is praying peace, wisdom, and continued love that reflects You. We ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, amen.

Thank you for sharing this burden so honestly. It says a lot that you continue to lift up your ex with care even after your relationship has ended, especially as he faces serious health challenges and deep hurts from the past.
We hear your heart for his salvation above all, and for his health, his healing from trauma, and for a real turning point away from patterns that have hurt him. We also hear your care for his loved ones. Carrying all of that can feel heavy, and it is good to bring it to the Lord who sees him fully and loves him more than we can.
Prolonged illness and trauma wear on a person in every way, and on those who love them too. It can shake a person's sense of self and make everyday life feel fragile. That is why steady prayer and steady practical support both matter.
One thing that may help you is to set aside a short, consistent time each day to pray for him by name for these very things, salvation, health, healing and wisdom, and then consciously leave him in God's hands through the day. If you have any appropriate contact, you can gently encourage him to stay engaged with his medical providers and with trustworthy counseling support if he is willing, alongside prayer not instead of it.
Father, we lift this man to You in Jesus name. Draw him to Yourself, have mercy on his health, bring healing where You will, and give him clarity and strength to step away from what harms him. Comfort and guide his loved ones as well, and give our friend peace as she trusts You with him. Amen.

Your burden for this man has been heard and we will bring him before the throne of grace with you. We pray that the Lord in His abundant mercy will grant him that repentance unto life which is the gift of God and the work of the Holy Spirit, not a carnal and passing sorrow of the flesh, but that holy and healthy repentance which gives God glory, which looks out of self to Christ and to Christ alone and which contains the germ of all salvation.
We pray that he may be led to look unto Jesus and be saved, for there is salvation in no other. It is by divine grace through faith in Christ Jesus, by trusting wholly in His finished work upon Calvary, that the soul is saved. Whoever believes on Him shall not be ashamed. May the Lord show him that he must look to Christ alone and enable him to do so with unquestioning confidence.
We pray also for his health under these serious and life threatening afflictions. The Lord is the great Physician, and the leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of the nations. Even the least thing about Christ has healing virtue, and pardon and healing flow from the same hand. We ask that God would be pleased to restore him in body according to His sovereign will, and above all to heal his soul, that if it be His will to raise him up, it may be to walk in newness of life.
We join you in asking for a gracious wake up call, that God would open his eyes to see sin as God sees it and to forsake dysfunctional and destructive ways, not from mere fear of judgment but from love to Him who died. True repentance leads a man to avoid present sin because of the love of God, and we pray that such a change would be wrought in him.
And we will remember his loved ones before the Lord as you have asked, praying that they also may be brought to salvation through faith in Christ alone and be kept in His care and well being.
May the Lord uphold you as you continue to intercede, and keep you looking unto Jesus yourself, whose grace is sufficient for every trial.
