We come before the Lord with a heavy heart, lifting up this prayer for your loved one who is struggling with anger, burdens, and pain. It is clear that your heart is tender toward him, and we join you in interceding for his soul before the throne of grace. First, we must address the language used in this prayer—while your intent is pure, we must guard our speech to honor God fully. The Lord calls us to purity in word and deed, and Scripture warns against coarse or vulgar language, even in prayer (Ephesians 4:29, Colossians 3:8). Let us always approach Him with reverence, ensuring our words reflect the holiness of the One we address.
Father God, we lift up this man to You, asking that You would indeed lay Your healing hands upon him. We pray against the spirit of anger that seeks to control him, for Your Word tells us that "man’s anger does not produce the righteousness of God" (James 1:20). Instead, fill him with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Where burdens weigh heavily upon him, Lord, we ask that You would lift them, for You have promised to carry our loads if we cast them upon You (Psalm 55:22, 1 Peter 5:7). Let him feel the depth of Your love, grace, and kindness, which are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23).
We rebuke the pain that grips his heart, whether it be from past wounds, present struggles, or the enemy’s lies. Jesus, we ask that You would bind up his broken heart and set him free from every chain (Isaiah 61:1). Hold his heart, Lord, and make it fully Yours. Calm the storm within him, for You are the God who stills the waves (Mark 4:39). Let him know that in You alone, he can find rest (Matthew 11:28).
We also pray for wisdom and discernment for you, the one praying. If this man is not yet in a relationship with Christ, we ask that You would draw him to Yourself, for no one comes to the Father except through Jesus (John 14:6). If he is a believer, strengthen his faith and help him to walk in the Spirit, not in the flesh (Galatians 5:16). If there are unrepentant sins in his life—whether anger, bitterness, or other struggles—convict him, Lord, and lead him to repentance (1 John 1:9).
Lastly, we declare that this man is not beyond Your reach. You are the God who heals, restores, and redeems. We stand in faith, believing that Your love will break every barrier and Your grace will transform his heart. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
In Jesus mighty name amen
