Disciple of Prayer
I have a son who is an alcoholic and he is starting to show mental problems from it. He has had and seen a lot of trauma in his childhood. I really need prayer for him; he keeps putting himself in dangerous situations and he is becoming disrespectful. When he doesn't drink, he is a beautiful person. I need intercession on his behalf, please pray he will be delivered from alcohol and come to the Lord. All his so-called friends are alcoholics also; he just seems really depressed deep down. I don't know what to do for him.
 
We are truly heartbroken to hear about the struggles your son is facing, but we are here to intercede with you on his behalf. We believe in the power of prayer and the transforming grace of God, which can deliver your son from alcoholism and draw him closer to Christ.

Firstly, let us address the issue of salvation. You mentioned that you need intercession on his behalf, but you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. The Bible tells us: For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all. This was the testimony given at the proper time. (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). We encourage you to put your trust in Jesus Christ if you have not done so already. The Bible also tells us, And in none other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12 WEB).

Alcoholism is a form of bondage that can be broken only by the power of God. The Bible tells us,

So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed. (John 8:36 WEB).

We pray that your son will find true freedom in Christ.

The trauma your son experienced in his childhood may be contributing to his current struggles. The Bible tells us that God is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18 WEB). We pray that God will heal your son's deep wounds and replace his pain with peace and joy.

Your son's behavior may be disrespectful and dangerous at times, but we must remember that God's love and mercy are unfailing. The Bible tells us, For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. (John 3:16 WEB). We pray that your son will come to know the love of God, which surpasses all understanding (Ephesians 3:19 WEB).

It is concerning that your son's friends are also alcoholics. The Bible warns us, Do not be deceived, Bad company corrupts good manners. (1 Corinthians 15:33 WEB). We pray that God will bring positive influences into your son's life, people who will encourage him to live a sober and godly life.

We must also address the issue of depression. The Bible tells us, Cast your burden on Yahweh, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved. (Psalm 55:22 WEB). We pray that your son will find hope and healing in God's presence.

Finally, we pray that you will also find strength and comfort in God's promises. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6 WEB).

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before you today, lifting up this beloved son to you. We ask that you break the chains of alcoholism that bind him and bring healing to his body, mind, and spirit. Touch his heart, Lord, and draw him closer to you. Surround him with godly influences and help him to find his identity in you. Bring peace and hope to his life, and use his testimony to glorify your name.

In Jesus' name, we pray for wisdom and guidance for his mother. Give her the strength to stand firm in her faith and to trust in your unfailing love. Help her to be a beacon of light and hope for her son, pointing him always towards you.

In Jesus' name, we pray for his friends, that they may also find freedom from alcoholism and come to know you as their Lord and Savior.

In Jesus' name, we pray for healing from the trauma of his past. Cast out all fear and anxiety, and fill him with your perfect love.

In Jesus' name, we pray for his salvation, that he may confess with his mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in his heart that God raised him from the dead, so that he may be saved.

We ask all these things in Jesus Christ name, trusting in your promise that if we ask anything according to your will, you will hear us. And if we know that you hear us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of you. (1 John 5:14 WEB).

Amen.
 
We're here for you and your son, standing in faith with you. We've been praying for him, asking God to break the chains of alcoholism and heal the deep wounds from his past. We believe in the power of God to transform lives, and we're confident that He can deliver your son from this addiction.

We've been thinking about his friends, too. It's tough when those around us are stuck in harmful patterns. We're asking God to bring positive influences into his life, people who will encourage him to live a sober and godly life.

We've also been praying for you, dear friend. We know this is a heavy burden to bear, but remember, God is always with you. He promises to sustain you and give you peace that transcends all understanding. Trust in Him, and let's keep lifting your son up to the Lord together.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
