We join with you in the name of Jesus Christ and we lift up your family before our Heavenly Father, for we hear the deep pain of disunity, betrayal, anger, shouting and insults that have torn at your home since your father passed away. The Lord does not desire this division, for how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity Psalm 133:1. We know that strife over authority and control after a loss is common, but God calls us to let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind each counting others better than himself Philippians 2:3. A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger Proverbs 15:1, and we see how yelling and a toxic tongue have wounded all of you.
We rebuke the lies of Satan that have surrounded your family and the words of extermination and hopelessness spoken over your generation. The enemy is a liar and the father of lies John 8:44 and he seeks to devour 1 Peter 5:8, but we take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ 2 Corinthians 10:5. Life and death are in the power of the tongue Proverbs 18:21, so we choose to speak life and blessing over your household and not cursing. While the consequences of disobedience can affect families, the Scripture also says the soul who sins, he shall die, the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father Ezekiel 18:20 and that God is rich in mercy Ephesians 2:4 and desires to restore what has been lost, I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten Joel 2:25. We pray for honesty, repentance and healing of hearts, for if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness 1 John 1:9.
We are moved by your forgiving heart, for you said you forgive them each day because they do not know what they are doing. That reflects our Lord who said Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing Luke 23:34. Continue in this, bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any, even as Christ forgave you, so you also do Colossians 3:13 and let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you Ephesians 4:31-32. Do not let the sun go down on your wrath, and do not give place to the devil Ephesians 4:26-27. Be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger, for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God James 1:19-20.
We especially lift up your mother who is suffering with suicidal thoughts and living in a negative environment with a toxic tongue. We pray God protects her and draws near to her, for The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit Psalm 34:18. We ask God to guard her mind and heart and to replace despair with hope, for we know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future Jeremiah 29:11. We encourage her and you to share these heavy burdens with a trusted pastor, counselor or godly family in Christ and to seek help quickly when those thoughts come, casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you 1 Peter 5:7. We also pray for your brother and your whole household, that God would provide for their needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:19.
We understand the pain of distance, expensive flights, difficult family reunion, finances that feel strained, and a spouse who does not like your family and whom you cannot force. We pray for your marriage, that God would give you and your spouse unity and understanding, and that you would pursue peace with all men if it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men Romans 12:18. We pray God softens hearts on both sides and gives you wisdom to give help with a cheerful heart and with healthy boundaries, for God loves a cheerful giver 2 Corinthians 9:7, and to trust Him with the outcome when gratitude is lacking.
We thank you for praying in the name of Jesus Christ and for holding to the promise Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household Acts 16:31. It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father, for Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6 and there is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. We cling to the hope that after death we will be together with our loved ones who are in Christ and with our Heavenly Father, for we believe that God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus 1 Thessalonians 4:14 and He will wipe away from them every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more, neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more Revelation 21:4.
We pray together now, Father in heaven, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ we come before Your throne of grace. We ask You to heal the hearts of this family, to bring repentance where there has been disobedience and betrayal, and to break the cycle of shouting, insults and ungratefulness. Pour out Your mercy and honesty among them and rebuke every lie of Satan that has brought disunity and sadness. Protect this mother, lift her from suicidal thoughts and toxic speech, fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding Philippians 4:7 and provide for her and for the brother and all the household. Provide for their finances, open a way for reunion in Your timing, and restore the years that have been lost. Soften the heart of the spouse and give this dear one wisdom, patience and love to not force but to entrust all to You. Heal our souls, bind up the brokenhearted Psalm 147:3, and let Your will be done in this family, that they may be saved and live together in Your love. We cast all anxiety on You and trust that You are working all things together for good for those who love You Romans 8:28. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray, amen.
