Sister

We hear your burden for your sister and for all your loved ones including yourself, and we join with you in bringing this before the Lord together in Jesus' name. We understand how painful it is to watch someone you love struggle with emotional and psychological distress that leads to negative behavior, and how much you desire freedom and wholeness for your whole family.
We know that God cares deeply about the condition of our minds and hearts. He is the one who heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds Psalm 147:3. He invites us to cast all our worries on him, because he cares for you 1 Peter 5:7. His desire for us is not confusion or torment, for God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control 2 Timothy 1:7, and we are called to not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God Romans 12:2.
We also want to gently share something important we noticed in your request, which did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. We want you to know that it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and that our prayers are heard. Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. It is by placing our faith in Jesus, believing that He died for our sins and rose again, that we are forgiven, made new, and brought into a right relationship with God. If you have not already done so, we encourage you to call upon His name and trust Him as Lord and Savior, and to pray for your sister and loved ones in His mighty name.
We pray together for you all now. Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and lift up this dear sister and all her loved ones including the one who has brought this request. Lord, You see the struggles in her sister's mind and emotions and the negative behaviors that have followed. We ask for Your healing touch upon her, for Your peace which surpasses all understanding to guard her heart and thoughts in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7. Bring clarity where there is confusion, calm where there is turmoil, and self control where there is distress. We ask that You would free each member of this family, including the one praying, from any bondage, oppression, or disturbance of mind or spirit, and renew their minds by Your truth and Your Spirit. Help them to not be afraid, for You have promised Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness Isaiah 41:10. Lead them to godly counsel, to Your Word, and to supportive fellowship where they can grow in wholeness, and give them wisdom to seek appropriate help where needed while trusting You as the ultimate healer. May Your will be done in their lives and may they know Your love and freedom more deeply each day. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our only hope and Savior, amen.

We appreciate you bringing your ### and your whole family before the Lord. It shows real love that you notice her struggles and want freedom and wholeness for everyone, including yourself.
When someone we love acts in ways that feel negative or confusing, it can leave us feeling helpless, worried and even drained. It is good you are bringing this to God instead of carrying it alone.
One helpful next step is to keep loving her with steady, calm boundaries while you pray. If you have a trusted pastor or a Christian counselor, it can help to talk through what you are seeing and get wisdom for how to support her well and also care for your own heart. If she is open to it, gently encouraging her to talk with a counselor or medical professional alongside prayer can be a caring way to support her. And continue to tend to your own rest, community and walk with the Lord.
Father, we bring this ### and this whole family to You. You see each heart and each struggle. We ask for Your peace, wisdom and healing in the ways You know are needed. Give this ### clarity and support, and give our friend strength and discernment as she loves her family. Lead each one closer to You and to the help that is best for them. In Jesus name, amen.

Beloved of All
Your care for your sister and for all your loved ones is a tender and Christian burden, and you have done well to bring it before the Lord who heals the broken in heart and binds up their wounds. It is a glorious thing to have a place of prayer in the family where you can bring all the necessities of the household before God and mention each child and each loved one by name, with all the troubles of the past and all the expected difficulties of the coming day.
We know that the leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of the nations, and that the least thing about Christ has healing virtue in it. These healing leaves change the life blood and make the nature other than it was before, and the same Lord who found a ransom to deliver the sinner from going down to the pit is able to deliver from inward distress, from heaviness of spirit, and from every disturbance which brings forth sorrowful and negative behavior. Pardon and healing are one in Christ Jesus, and when He comes to dwell with His people the Sun of Righteousness rises with healing in His wings.
We will pray with you and for you. May the Lord look upon your sister in tender mercy, quiet her mind, heal her heart, and grant her soundness and peace through His grace. May He lay His healing hand upon you and upon all your loved ones, delivering you from the power of darkness and keeping you in the kingdom of His dear Son. If it has pleased Him to chasten sorely, may that chastening be blessed to draw each heart nearer to Christ, so that you may afterwards live and declare the works of the Lord and sing of a greater deliverance than that wrought for Israel of old.
Continue to spread this grief before the Lord, whose ear is not shut to the cry of His children, and seek also such wise and godly help as He provides for infirmities of body and mind, trusting not in means alone but in Him who alone can make whole. He who has begun a good work is faithful to perfect it. May grace and peace be multiplied to you as you wait upon Him.

Your request for your sister and for all your loved ones has been heard, and we join you in bringing it before the Lord.
We pray that God, who is our peace and our healer, would look with mercy upon your sister in her struggles and upon you and your whole family. We ask that He would free each of you from every disturbance, anxiety and heaviness of heart, and grant calmness of mind, strength and clarity. May He lift the burdens that weigh upon the soul, for the yoke of Christ is sweet and light, while sin and troubled thoughts bring waves of fear and restlessness.
We pray that He would give you all a careful hearing of His word and a continual remembrance of it, with fortitude and faith, and that He would fill your home with His peace which passes understanding. May He guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, crown your conscience with quietness, and still every inward storm so that you may live in that haven of peace which belongs to those who trust Him.
We also pray that the Lord would give you wisdom to support your sister with love, patience and truth, and that He would guide you to the right help and counsel as you walk with her through this. May He draw each of you closer to Himself, for He alone is our salvation, and may you know His restoring grace day by day.
We will continue to remember you all in prayer. May the Lord comfort you, strengthen you, and lead you into full health of soul and body according to His will. Amen.
