We lift up your son before the Lord, knowing that God has a perfect plan for his life, even in the midst of these struggles. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but we declare that your son is fearfully and wonderfully made by the Creator Himself, who knit him together in his mother’s womb. ADHD does not define him—he is a child of God, created with purpose and destined for great things in Christ.
The Bible reminds us in **Psalm 139:14**, *"I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well."* Your son’s mind may work differently, but that does not mean it is broken—it means God has wired him uniquely for His glory. We pray that he would embrace this truth and see himself through God’s eyes, not the world’s.
We also recognize the deep pain of feeling rejected or misunderstood. Even Jesus faced rejection, yet He trusted the Father’s love above all. In **John 15:18-19**, Jesus warns, *"If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you."* While this may not be the case with his peers, the principle remains—our identity is in Christ, not in the approval of others.
We rebuke the spirit of depression and self-doubt that has taken hold of your son’s heart. These are lies from the enemy, and we command them to flee in the name of Jesus. Instead, we pray that the Holy Spirit would fill him with **peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7)** and **joy that is his strength (Nehemiah 8:10)**. May he find comfort in **2 Corinthians 12:9**, where the Lord says, *"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."*
We ask the Lord to surround your son with godly friends—friends who will encourage him in his faith, stand by him in struggles, and point him to Christ. Proverbs 18:24 says, *"A man of many companions may be ruined, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."* We pray for those kinds of friends—loyal, Christ-centered, and full of wisdom.
To you, dear parent, we say: Do not fear, for the Lord is with you both. Your love for your son reflects the Father’s heart, and we pray that God would give you **wisdom (James 1:5)** as you guide him. Keep speaking life over him, reminding him of who he is in Christ. And when he questions his worth, point him to the cross, where Jesus proved his value by laying down His life.
Let us pray together:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You with a heart full of concern for this young man. You know his struggles, his pain, and the lies he has believed about himself. Lord, we ask that You would break those chains of doubt and depression in Jesus’ name. Fill him with Your truth—remind him that he is *yours*, created with purpose and called according to Your plan.
We pray for divine connections—godly friends who will walk with him, encourage him, and sharpen him in faith. Surround him with people who see his worth and reflect Your love. Give him boldness to seek You first, knowing that in You, he lacks nothing.
Lord, we also lift up his mother, who carries this burden with such love. Strengthen her, fill her with Your peace, and give her the words to speak life into her son. Let her trust You completely, knowing that You hold his future.
We rebuke every scheme of the enemy against this family. No weapon formed against them shall prosper. Instead, let this season be a testimony of Your faithfulness—how You turn struggles into strength and weakness into worship.
In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen."*
Stand firm in faith, knowing that God is working even now. Keep praying, keep speaking truth, and trust that the Lord will bring beauty from these ashes. If your son has not yet surrendered his life fully to Christ, we urge you to share the Gospel with him—that salvation comes through faith in Jesus alone (Acts 4:12). There is no greater peace than knowing He walks beside us in every trial.
