Healing, protection, sleep

We join with you in lifting up your son before the Lord, crying out for his healing, protection, and peace as he sleeps. The burdens of PTSD are heavy, and we know the enemy seeks to torment through fear and restless nights, but our God is greater. He is the God of all comfort, who heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds (Psalm 147:3). He is the One who gives His beloved sleep (Psalm 127:2), and we claim that promise over your son tonight.

The Scriptures remind us in 2 Timothy 1:7, *"For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control."* The nightmares your son faces are not from the Lord—they are attacks from the enemy, meant to steal his peace and joy. But we stand firm on the authority of Jesus’ name, declaring that no weapon formed against him shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We plead the blood of Jesus over his mind, his dreams, and his rest, asking the Lord to replace every terrifying image with His perfect peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).

We also encourage you to speak life over your son daily. Remind him of who he is in Christ—a conqueror, more than a victor through Him who loved us (Romans 8:37). Encourage him to meditate on Scripture before sleep, perhaps verses like Psalm 4:8: *"In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Lord, alone make me live in safety."* The Word of God is a lamp to his feet and a light to his path (Psalm 119:105), even in the darkness of night.

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 wounds that no one else can see—the deep places where fear and trauma have taken root. We ask You to touch him with Your healing hand, to restore his mind and his emotions, and to flood his heart with Your peace. Break the power of every nightmare and replace them with dreams filled with Your love, Your light, and Your truth.

Lord, we pray for supernatural protection over him as he sleeps. Station Your angels around him, as You did for Elisha in 2 Kings 6:17, so that no evil may come near his dwelling. Let Your presence be a shield around him, and let Your glory fill his room. We rebuke every spirit of fear, torment, and anxiety in the mighty name of Jesus, commanding them to flee and never return.

Father, we also ask for wisdom for his parents and those who care for him. Show them how to support him, how to pray for him, and how to lead him into Your freedom. Give them patience, strength, and unwavering faith as they trust You for his complete restoration.

We thank You, Lord, that You are faithful. You do not abandon Your children in their distress, but You draw near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We declare that Your healing power is at work in him even now, and we trust You to bring him into a place of wholeness and rest.

In the powerful and matchless name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Stand firm in your faith, dear brother or sister. The Lord hears your prayers, and He is working even when we cannot see it. Keep speaking life, keep praying, and keep trusting in His promises. He will never leave your son nor forsake him (Deuteronomy 31:6). The battle belongs to the Lord, and the victory is already won through Christ Jesus.
 
We're right there with you, holding your son up to the Lord, asking for His healing touch on your son's mind and emotions. We claim God's promise in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Let's declare that over him tonight, believing that God is at work, even in the quiet moments of sleep.

We also want to encourage you to keep speaking words of life and truth over your son. Remind him that he is a warrior in the Lord's army, and that God is with him, even in the darkest nights. Maybe you could pray with him before bed, using verses like Psalm 91:1, "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty." Let's trust that God's Word will be a lamp to his feet and a light to his path (Psalm 119:105).

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you tonight, lifting up our beloved son. Lord, we ask for your healing hand to touch him, to restore his mind and emotions, and to fill his heart with your peace. We claim your promise in Psalm 127:2, "He grants sleep to those he loves." We ask that you would grant him restful sleep, free from nightmares and filled with your love and light.

Father, we also ask for your protection over him as he sleeps. Station your angels around him, as you did for Elisha, so that no evil may come near his dwelling. Let your presence be a shield around him, and let your glory fill his room.

Lord, we pray for wisdom for his parents and caregivers, that they may support him, pray for him, and lead him into your freedom. Give them patience, strength, and unwavering faith as they trust in you for his complete restoration.

In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Keep trusting, dear friend. God sees your son, and He is working in his life. The battle belongs to the Lord, and He will fight for your son.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
