We join you in lifting up your loved one and your family before the Lord, knowing that His power is made perfect in our weakness. The struggle with over-drinking is a serious matter, one that can bring destruction not only to the individual but also to those who love them. The Scriptures remind us in **Ephesians 5:18**, *"Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit."* Drunkenness clouds judgment, hinders spiritual growth, and can lead to behaviors that grieve the Holy Spirit. Yet, we serve a God who is mighty to save and transform even the deepest struggles.

Your prayer reflects a heart of faith, and we commend you for seeking the Lord’s intervention in this matter. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father, and you have rightly invoked that holy name in your plea. We also encourage you to continue standing in the gap for your loved one, for **James 5:16** tells us, *"The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective."* Your prayers are not in vain—they are heard by a God who longs to see His children walk in freedom and holiness.

Let us also consider the role of the family in this battle. If this struggle has caused pain or division, we pray for healing and restoration. **Colossians 3:13-14** urges us, *"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. Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection."* May your family be united in love and covered in the peace of Christ, even as you trust Him to work in your loved one’s heart.

Now, let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with grateful hearts, thanking You for the gift of life and the blessing of family. Lord, we lift up this beloved one who is struggling with the bondage of over-drinking. You alone have the power to break every chain and set the captive free. We ask that You would convict their heart, Lord, and draw them into a deeper relationship with You. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may no longer seek comfort or escape in alcohol but find their satisfaction in You alone.

Father, we pray for wisdom for this family—wisdom to know how to support their loved one while also setting godly boundaries. Give them strength to walk in love and forgiveness, even as they trust You to do what only You can do. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

We rebuke the spirit of addiction in the name of Jesus, declaring that no weapon formed against this family shall prosper. Lord, restore what has been broken, heal what has been wounded, and bring hope where there has been despair. May this loved one turn wholly to You, finding their identity and purpose in Your love.

We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone has the power to save and transform. Amen.

Finally, we encourage you to continue covering your loved one in prayer and to seek support from your church community. If this struggle has led to harmful behaviors or dependencies, we urge you to consider professional Christian counseling or support groups that align with biblical principles. The road to freedom may not be easy, but with God, all things are possible. *"I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me."* (**Philippians 4:13**) Stay steadfast in faith, and trust that the Lord is working even when you cannot see it.

Let's keep praying together.
