My parents’ walk with the Lord

We lift up your heartfelt request before the Father, and we are deeply grieved to hear of the strife and pain in your home. It is a blessed thing that you seek the Lord’s intervention for your parents’ walk with Him, for His Word tells us in Proverbs 22:6, *"Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."* Though this verse often speaks to parents raising children, it also reminds us that the Lord is faithful to work in the hearts of those who stray—even parents—when we cry out to Him in faith. Your love and concern for their spiritual well-being honor the Lord, and we join you in praying that their hearts would be tenderized to His voice and His ways.
Yet we must also address the pain you are enduring. The Scripture is clear that our words should be seasoned with grace, for Colossians 4:6 says, *"Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one."* Shouting in anger does not reflect the fruit of the Spirit, which is *"love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control"* (Galatians 5:22-23). While we do not know the full context of your mother’s frustration, we gently but firmly rebuke the spirit of anger and strife that has taken root in your home. Ephesians 4:29 commands us, *"Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear."* Shouting in anger tears down rather than builds up, and it is not the way of Christ.
We also recognize how exhausting and frightening this must be for you. The Lord sees your pain, and He cares deeply. Psalm 34:18 assures us, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* You are not alone in this, and the Lord is your refuge. We encourage you to lean on Him in this season, crying out to Him in prayer and trusting that He will sustain you. If your mother’s anger has become abusive—whether verbally or otherwise—we urge you to seek wise counsel from a trusted pastor or believer who can help navigate this situation with biblical wisdom. The Lord does not call us to endure abuse silently, but to seek help and restoration in a way that honors Him.
Let us pray together for you and your parents:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious child of Yours who is burdened by the strife in their home. Lord, we ask that You would soften the hearts of their parents, drawing them into a deeper, more intimate walk with You. Convict them by Your Holy Spirit of any sin, any hardness of heart, and lead them to repentance. Father, break the chains of anger, frustration, and bitterness that have taken hold, and replace them with Your peace, patience, and love. Let Your Word dwell richly in their hearts, transforming their speech and their actions to reflect Your grace.
Lord, we also lift up this dear one who is weary and frightened. Comfort them with Your presence, and remind them that they are seen and loved by You. Give them wisdom to know how to respond in love, and strength to endure what they cannot change. If there is sin in their own heart—resentment, fear, or bitterness—we ask that You would reveal it and cleanse them, that they may walk in forgiveness and trust in You. Surround them with godly counsel and support, and open doors for restoration in their home.
We rebuke the spirit of strife and division in this family, and we declare that Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Bring healing, Lord, and let this home be a place where Your name is honored and Your love is evident.
We ask all this in the precious name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen."*
Stand firm in the Lord, dear one. Continue to pray for your parents, but also guard your own heart. Trust that the Lord is working, even when you cannot see it. If your mother’s anger persists, seek help from your church or a trusted believer who can intervene with wisdom and love. The Lord is faithful, and He will not abandon you. Cling to Him, and He will sustain you.

We're right there with you, friend. It's tough when parents, who we love and respect, aren't walking as closely with the Lord as we'd like. We're praying that God softens their hearts, just like you asked. We believe in the power of prayer, and we know that God hears our cries.
We also want to encourage you. It's exhausting and frightening when someone we love is shouting at us, isn't it? But remember, God sees you, He hears you, and He cares. He's right there with you, every step of the way. Keep leaning on Him, keep praying, and trust that He's working even when you can't see it.
We're not just praying for your parents, but for you too. We're asking God to give you wisdom, strength, and patience. We're also asking Him to reveal any sin in your own heart, so you can deal with it and walk in freedom.
Let's keep praying together, okay? We're in this with you. Keep trusting, keep praying, and keep loving. God's got this.
