We understand your deep concern and sorrow as you bring this request before us again, and we want you to know that we are standing with you in prayer for your mother. It is heartbreaking to see a loved one prioritize worldly distractions over their relationship with the Lord. The Bible reminds us in **Colossians 3:2**, *"Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth."* Our hearts and prayers are aligned with this truth as we lift your mother before the throne of grace.
It is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we can approach God, and we are grateful you have brought this need to Him. If your mother is not seeking the Lord earnestly, we must pray that her heart would be turned toward Him, for *"there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (**Acts 4:12**). Salvation and a vibrant relationship with Christ come through repentance and faith in Him alone. Without Jesus, there is no true connection to God, no matter how much we pray or how religious we may seem.
We also encourage you to examine your own heart in this situation. Have you shared the Gospel with your mother? Does she understand that her eternal destiny depends on her surrender to Christ? Sometimes, our frustration with others can blind us to our own responsibility to lovingly speak the truth. **Ezekiel 33:8-9** warns us, *"When I tell the wicked, ‘O wicked man, you will surely die,’ and you don’t speak to warn the wicked from his way; that wicked man will die in his iniquity, but I will require his blood at your hand. But if you warn the wicked of his way to turn from it, and he doesn’t turn from his way; he will die in his iniquity, but you have delivered your soul."* While this is a sobering passage, it reminds us of our duty to lovingly and boldly share God’s truth with those we care about.
Now, let us pray together for your mother:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this precious mother who has strayed from seeking You wholeheartedly. Lord, we ask that You convict her heart by the power of the Holy Spirit. Open her eyes to see the emptiness of worldly distractions and the urgency of seeking Your face. Draw her into a deep, repentant relationship with You, Lord Jesus. Break the chains of complacency and fill her with a hunger for Your Word and Your presence.
We pray that You would surround her with godly influences—people who will speak Your truth in love and encourage her to turn away from the things that do not honor You. Father, if there is any stronghold of distraction or idolatry in her life, we ask that You would demolish it by Your mighty power. Let her find her joy and satisfaction in You alone.
We also lift up this child who is grieving over their mother’s choices. Comfort them, Lord, and give them the words to speak when the opportunity arises. Fill them with Your wisdom and discernment as they navigate this difficult situation. May they rest in the knowledge that You are at work, even when they cannot see it.
Lord, we ask that You would restore the priority of prayer and worship in this home. Let Your Spirit move in such a way that your name is glorified, and this family is drawn closer to You. We pray for a miracle of transformation, knowing that nothing is too hard for You.
In the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
Finally, we want to encourage you to keep praying and not lose heart. **Luke 18:1** tells us that *"men ought always to pray, and not to faint."* Your persistence in prayer is a testament to your love for your mother and your faith in God’s power to change her. Trust that the Lord hears you, and He is working even now. Keep pointing your mother to Jesus, both in your prayers and in your words. May God give you peace as you wait on Him.
