Disciple of Prayer
Hello I am a believer along with my husband we adopted our nephew when he was eight and raised him as my own child he was my sister's child who passed at 25. He was a type of kid to just got it right whether it was school whatever he put his hands to he got it right you could trust that he would do his chores and just what he was supposed to I have two sons one above him and one below him and they all got along great but he he was kind of my favorite cuz you could count on them well he went to college became an engineering and got married and began to pull away from us his family. It seemed like her family never really wanted to be part of our family and along in the shortest he pulled away from us and now he doesn't talk to us and I tried and I begged and I pleaded until one day when he was about to have his baby we went over as a family to just wait for him to be born and he had the nurse put his family out the hospital and I felt right then in there he truly doesn't want us around so we haven't spoke since that day which is almost a year ago. But my heart aches for him I miss him I can't understand what happened I can't understand how a wife or mother-in-law could just allow this to go on if they weren't part of why this is happening. I don't know but I know my heart is heavy it was a believer but it seems like maybe that has failed out a wayside as well his brothers has reached out to no avail he wants nothing to do with us in my heart aches for him his salvation the Bible tells him to honor his mother and father so the things would be well with him. As much as I love him the Bible tells the truth and it doesn't lie. So please just join me in prayer I think I just want answers I just want to know why what did we do we didn't love you enough we didn't give you enough I don't know please pray for us
 
We are truly saddened to hear about the estrangement you're experiencing with your nephew whom you've raised as your own. We will join you in prayer and seek God's will in this situation. Let us first turn to the scriptures for guidance and comfort.

The Bible tells us in 2 Chronicles 7:14 (WEB), "if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." This verse reminds us of the power of humility, prayer, and repentance.

In regards to the situation, we must remember that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12 (WEB).

Also, consider the words of Malachi 4:5-6 (WEB), "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse." This passage highlights the importance of family reconciliation and the spiritual impact it has.

Regarding the actions of your nephew and his wife, we must remember what the Bible says in Ephesians 6:2 (WEB), "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with a promise. As much as this hurts you, and we deeply understand that, we must remember the words of Jesus in Luke 9:23 (WEB) "He said to all, 'If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me." He also said in Luke 9:62 (WEB) "But Jesus said to him, 'No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for God's Kingdom.'" Jesus did not please men when He walked on the Earth.

Let us pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this family that is hurting and seeking Your intervention. Lord, You know the depth of the pain and confusion they are feeling. We pray for their nephew, that Your Holy Spirit would convict his heart and draw him back to You and to his family.

Father, we pray for healing and reconciliation in this family. We pray for the family of his wife to respect their family and not divide it. Soften their hearts, Lord, and help them to see the importance of family unity and the honor that should be given to parents.

We also pray for this beloved sister in Christ, that You would comfort her heart and give her the strength and wisdom to navigate this difficult situation. Help her to rest in Your love and trust in Your sovereign plan.

In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen."

In closing, we encourage you to continue to stand firm in your faith and trust in the Lord. Remember that God is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. Keep praying and believing for your nephew's salvation and for the restoration of your relationship. We also recommend that you surround yourself with a supportive community of believers who can encourage you and pray with you during this time.

We must remember the commandment of Jesus in Matthew 5:44 (WEB) to "love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you" so we will pray for the antagonists in this matter as well.
 
We're here with you, feeling the ache in your heart for your ###. It's like a piece of your family is missing, and it's hard to understand why things have turned out this way. We've been praying for him, for you, and for your whole family. We know that God sees your pain and is close to your heart.

In times like these, it's easy to feel like we're fighting alone, but remember, we're in a spiritual battle. Ephesians 6:12 reminds us that our struggles are not against flesh and blood, but against the powers of darkness. Let's claim the promise in 2 Chronicles 7:14, that if we humble ourselves, pray, seek God's face, and turn from our wicked ways, He will hear from heaven, forgive our sin, and heal our land.

We've been praying for God to soften your ###'s heart, for him to see the love and care you've always had for him. We've also been praying for his wife's family, that they would respect and honor your family, and not divide it. We're asking God to bring healing and reconciliation, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers (Malachi 4:5-6).

We know this is hard, but let's keep trusting in God's plan. He is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. Let's continue to pray, to believe, and to love, even when it's hard. As Jesus said, "Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you" (Matthew 5:44). Let's keep loving, keep praying, and trust that God is working all things together for good (Romans 8:28).

We're here for you, praying with you, and believing with you for a miracle in your family. Keep holding on to hope, and let's keep fighting the good fight of faith together.
 
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.
