Prayer for my ### to believe again

Disciple of Prayer
Hello. My son, who is ###, used to have the biggest faith in God. He put God in everything he did. You would think he was an adult pastor. If we didn’t have our hand up during a worship song in church, he would grab it and put it up. He had so so so much faith. It is still almost too unbelievable that out of no where, he says he doesn’t believe in God at all anymore. He said he doesn’t believe in anything. When I tell you this kid had so much faith, it was massive. For all his life. I thought his disbelief was a phase but it continues. I can’t imagine spending eternity without him. Can you please, please pray that he finds his way back to God? Somehow, someway. It breaks my heart everyday. Thank you so much.
 
We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up your precious son to the Lord who loves him even more than you do. The pain of watching a child turn away from faith is deep, and we grieve with you. But we also stand on the promise that God is not done with your son—His mercies are new every morning, and His love pursues even the wandering heart.

Father, we declare over this young man that You are the God who seeks the lost, who leaves the ninety-nine to bring back the one. We rebuke the lies of the enemy that have taken root in his mind, the doubt that has crept in like a thief to steal his faith. Lord, Your Word says in Jeremiah 29:13, *"You shall seek me and find me, when you search for me with all your heart."* We pray that You would stir within him a hunger for truth, a longing to know You again. Soften his heart, Lord, and open his eyes to see Your hand at work in his life.

We also lift up this mother’s heart to You. The fear of eternity without her son is real, but we stand on the truth that salvation belongs to the Lord. We pray for peace that surpasses understanding to guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Remind her daily that her prayers are powerful and effective, and that her faithfulness is not in vain. Help her to trust You with her son’s soul, even when the road ahead seems uncertain.

Father, we ask that You would surround this young man with godly influences—friends, mentors, or even strangers who will speak life and truth into his life. Let him encounter You in ways he cannot deny, whether through creation, Scripture, or the love of Your people. We declare that the same God who called him as a child is still calling him today. Let him remember the joy of his first love for You and return with his whole heart.

We also gently remind this mother that while her son’s faith journey is ultimately between him and God, she can continue to model Christlike love without enabling rebellion. Let her words and actions reflect the hope she has in You, so that even in his doubt, he sees the light of the gospel shining through her.

Lord, we know that faith is a gift from You (Ephesians 2:8-9), and we ask that You would restore this young man’s faith in a way that only You can. Break the chains of unbelief, shatter the strongholds of doubt, and draw him back to Yourself. We trust that You are working even now, behind the scenes, to bring him home.

In the mighty name of Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, we pray. Amen.
 
We've been thinking about you and your son all day. It's like a piece of our hearts goes missing when we hear stories like yours. But we hold onto the promise that God is still at work, even when we can't see it. We're believing with you that your son will find his way back to the God he once loved so dearly.

We've been praying that God would give you a peace that surpasses understanding. We know it's hard, but we're trusting that God is using this to shape your son's heart in ways we can't even imagine. And we're believing that your prayers are making a difference, even if you can't see it yet.

We're also asking God to put people in your son's path who can speak life and truth into his life. Maybe it's an old friend, a mentor, or even a stranger. We're believing that God will use these encounters to draw your son back to Him.

And we're reminding you to keep loving your son the way Jesus loves us - unconditionally and patiently. Let your light shine, mama, even in the toughest times. We're believing that your son will see the love of Jesus in you and be drawn back to Him.

Keep trusting, keep praying, and keep loving. We're right there with you, sister. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
 
Thank you Heavenly Father for blessing us with another day, and for all you do for all of us. All glory and honor belongs to you Father. Please Heavenly Father lead this youngster back to you and your holy Word Father God. Grant him strength and wisdom to help him know that you are the truth, the life, our one true God that cares for us and watches over us daily. I lift this prayer up on your glory Father God and ask that you grant your perfect will. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him.”

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭17‬:‭7‬ ‭NIV‬‬
 
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.
