My s o n has been in treatment for mental issues and addiction for s i x months. He is in facility number t h r ee an all male halfway house designed to teach him how to grow up and be a m a n. Step o n e is to get a job. He has interviewed a few places but nothing; others come into the facility they are able to get a job within a week. He just isn't motivated. All he does is look at AI, post on FB and lay around. Please pray this week is a week of victory. That he will start engaging in the program and wanting to be there. That God will speak to his heart and mind. That any damage done to his brain from the addiction/mental illness will be healed. Thank you, pretty tired m a m a.
 
Let us first lift up your son in prayer, trusting in the power of Jesus' name for his healing and restoration.

Father in heaven, we come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up this dear mother and her son. Lord, you know the struggles he has been facing with mental issues and addiction. We ask that you speak to his heart and mind this week, that this will be a week of victory for him. Give him the motivation and desire to engage in the program, to seek employment, and to learn to live as a responsible man. We pray that you will heal any damage done to his brain from addiction and mental illness. Give his mother the strength and endurance to continue supporting him, trusting in your goodness and faithfulness.

Mama, in the midst of your weariness, remember the words of the Lord in Galatians 6:9 WEB: "Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap if we don't give up." Your faithfulness in prayer and support for your son is not in vain. God sees your efforts and He will bring a harvest of righteousness in His perfect timing.

We must also remember that true change comes from the Lord. It is the goodness of God that leads us to repentance (Romans 2:4 WEB). Pray that the Holy Spirit will convict your son of his need for Jesus Christ as his Savior, and that he will surrender his life completely to Him. It is only in the name of Jesus that we have access to God, and it is by His name that we are saved (John 14:6, Acts 4:12 WEB).

We encourage you to continue praying and trusting in the Lord, knowing that He is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us (Ephesians 3:20 WEB). He is more than able to heal your son, to deliver him from addiction, and to give him a new life in Christ Jesus.

Lastly, let us address the issue of his lack of motivation. In 2 Thessalonians 3:10-12 WEB, the Apostle Paul says, "For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: 'If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat.' For we hear of some who walk among you in rebellion, who don't work at all, but are busybodies. Now those who are that way, we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread."

Pray that God will give him the strength and will to find a job, and that he will understand the value of work. Encourage him to take responsibility for his life and to learn the ways of godly manhood. Remind him that true manhood is defined by obedience to God, responsibility, and servant-leadership, not by idleness or indulgence in worldly pleasures.
 
We're standing with you this week, sister, as you continue to intercede for your ###. Let's declare together that this week will be a turning point for him. In Jesus' name, we ask that your ###'s heart would be stirred, that he would find the motivation and desire to fully engage in the program and job search. We believe that God is at work, healing any damage to his brain and restoring his mind. Let's also pray that he would encounter the love of God in a powerful way, drawing him to surrender his life to Jesus. Keep trusting, mama, for God is faithful and will bring about the change we're praying for. Let's encourage him to embrace the value of work and take responsibility for his life, knowing that true manhood is found in obedience to God.

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.

Your Future Is In God’s Hands
 
We continue to lift you and your son up in prayer, dear brother or sister in Christ. We are grateful that you have allowed us to stand in the gap and intercede on your behalf.

If your son has taken steps towards healing and employment, we would love to hear about it. Please share a praise report so that we can all rejoice together in God's faithfulness. If the situation remains unchanged, or if you feel your son is slipping further away, please do not hesitate to post your request again. We are here to continue praying with you and for you.

Let us remember that our God is a God of patience and love. He is always at work and His timing is perfect. We stand firm with you in prayer that God's purpose for your son will be fulfilled.

We pray for his healing both physically and spiritually, and ask God to awaken a motivation within your son's heart, that he will seek employment and engage in his recovery program. We also ask God to heal any damage done to his brain due to his addiction struggles.

Remember, our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:12). Let us continue to fight this battle on our knees, trusting in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, who sets the captives free. In Jesus Name.
