We come before the Father with heavy yet hopeful hearts, lifting up this family that is broken by disunity, betrayal, and the deep wounds left by anger and grief. The enemy has sought to divide what God intended to be united, but we declare that no weapon formed against this family shall prosper, for the Lord is their refuge and strength. You have done well to forgive daily, as Christ commanded, and we join you in praying for their repentance and the healing of all hearts involved.
The pain of losing your father has clearly left a void that has been filled with strife rather than comfort, and the absence of unity has only deepened the sorrow. Yet Scripture reminds us in **Psalm 34:18**, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* He sees the tears, hears the cries, and is not distant from this suffering. The fighting over authority and the ingratitude you’ve faced are not of God, for **1 Corinthians 14:33** tells us, *"For God is not a God of confusion, but of peace."* We rebuke the spirit of division, pride, and ungratefulness in the name of Jesus Christ, commanding it to flee from this family. Let the peace of Christ, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Him.
Your mother’s burden is especially heavy—suicidal thoughts, a toxic tongue, and the weight of responsibility for your brother’s family are more than any one person should bear alone. But **Matthew 11:28** calls her to come to Jesus: *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest."* We pray that the Lord would surround her with His angels, lift the darkness from her mind, and replace her despair with His hope. May He provide for her needs and grant her wisdom to navigate the challenges she faces. The enemy seeks to destroy, but we declare that her life is hidden in Christ, and no scheme of the devil will prevail against her.
The financial strain of distance and the cost of travel are real, but we trust in **Philippians 4:19**, which promises, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* We ask the Lord to open doors for provision—whether through unexpected resources, favor in travel, or creative solutions to bring this family together in His timing. Your desire to help is noble, but we also recognize the tension with your spouse’s feelings. While we cannot force reconciliation, we pray that the Lord would soften hearts—both within your family and in your marriage. **Ephesians 4:32** urges, *"And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."* May your spouse’s heart be turned toward compassion, and may the Lord grant you both unity in how to extend grace to your family.
It is beautiful that you cling to the truth of **Acts 16:31**, *"Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved—you and your household."* Salvation is the foundation of all healing, and we pray that every member of your family would surrender their hearts to Jesus if they have not already. Without Christ, there is no lasting peace or true reconciliation. If any among you have not yet accepted Him as Lord and Savior, we plead with the Holy Spirit to convict them, for *"there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (**Acts 4:12**).
Finally, we declare that this family will not be defined by its brokenness but by the redemption of the Lord. The day will come when you *will* reunite—not just in heaven, but in the healing and restoration that God is even now preparing on earth. The pain of today is not the end of the story. **Joel 2:25** promises, *"I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten..."* and we claim that promise over every lost year, every shattered relationship, and every wounded heart.

**Our Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this family that is torn by division, grief, and the enemy’s lies. Lord, You are the God who heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds (**Psalm 147:3**), and we ask You to move powerfully in their midst.
We rebuke the spirits of strife, betrayal, anger, and ungratefulness that have taken root. By the blood of Jesus, we command these strongholds to be broken and for Your peace to flood every heart. Softening the hardness that has grown between them, replace shouting with listening, tears of pain with tears of repentance, and accusations with words of life.
Father, we especially lift up this dear mother who is overwhelmed by suicidal thoughts and the weight of responsibility. Surround her with Your presence, Lord. Let her feel Your arms holding her up when she cannot stand. Silence the toxic words on her tongue and replace them with praise. Provide for her needs, Lord—financially, emotionally, and spiritually. Let her know she is not alone, for You are her ever-present help.
We ask for supernatural provision for the financial burdens that keep this family apart. You own the cattle on a thousand hills (**Psalm 50:10**), and nothing is too difficult for You. Open doors no one can shut, Lord, whether through affordable travel, unexpected resources, or divine connections that bring reconciliation.
We pray for the spouse who has grown distant from this family. Soften their heart, Lord, and help them to see these relatives through Your eyes. Grant wisdom and unity in this marriage, that they might extend grace even when it is hard.
Most of all, Father, we pray for salvation and repentance. If any in this family do not know Jesus as Lord, we ask that You draw them to Yourself. Let this season of brokenness drive them to the cross, where true healing begins. For those who do believe, renew their faith and fill them with Your Spirit, that they may walk in forgiveness, love, and humility.
We thank You, Lord, that You are making all things new (**Revelation 21:5**). What the enemy meant for harm, You will turn for good. Restore what has been lost, mend what has been torn, and let this family testify to Your redeeming power.
In the mighty and matchless name of **Jesus Christ**, our Savior and Redeemer, we pray. **Amen.**
