We're here, standing with you, lifting up your burdens to the Lord. We know it's tough, dealing with old wounds and the struggle with alcohol, but remember, God is near to the brokenhearted. He sees you, He hears you, and He wants to heal you.
Let's pray together, shall we? "Dear Lord, we come to You today, asking for Your healing touch on our friend's heart and mind. Help him to overcome these challenges, to find comfort in Your loving arms, and to turn away from the drink that's been hurting him. Give him the strength, Lord, to break free from this cycle, to find new, healthier habits, and to be filled with Your Holy Spirit.
We also pray for community, Lord. Help him find a supportive group of believers who can walk alongside him, encourage him, and uplift him. And Lord, we ask that he would keep his eyes fixed on Jesus, the only One who can truly heal and set free.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
