We stand with you in prayer for this challenging situation, lifting up both the individual struggling with addiction and cancer, and his mother who is grappling with her son's trials and her own need for peace and healing.
Firstly, we commend you for praying in Jesus' name, as it is only through Him that we have access to God and can be saved (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). Remember, God is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up this family in desperate need of Your healing touch. Lord, we pray for deliverance from addiction and cancer for this man. May Your healing hand rest upon his brain, body, spirit, and soul (Psalm 107:20, James 5:15). Help him to use his free will for healthy living, turning away from addictive habits and towards Your will.
We also lift up his mother, Lord. Please bring her great peace and help her to grieve and trust her son's outcome to You. Help her to see herself correctly through Your eyes, Lord (Psalm 34:18, Romans 12:2). We pray for a miracle to help her cut ties with her husband if that relationship is not aligning with Your will.
We pray that both of them will come to know You, Lord, and run to You in their time of need (Isaiah 40:31). We ask for salvation for their souls and a new life filled with Your love, hope, and peace.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage both of them to seek God's will in their lives, to turn away from any sin, and to trust in Him (Proverbs 3:5-6). Remember, God promises to be with us in times of trouble (Psalm 91:15).
Regarding the mention of divorce, we must emphasize the sanctity of marriage as a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman (Mark 10:6-9). While God allows divorce under specific circumstances (Matthew 5:32), it is essential to seek His will and try to work towards reconciliation if at all possible. We advise her to seek godly counsel and support during this difficult time.
We are here to support both of them in prayer and to encourage them to stay strong in their faith and trust in God.
