We join you in lifting up your precious son before the throne of grace and we stand with you in agreement for his protection and deliverance. Your heart as a parent reflects the Father's heart, for He sees every hurt and hears every cry, and His desire is to shelter the vulnerable under His wings.
We are encouraged that you have come in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and confidence that our prayers are heard. As it is written, There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus 1 Timothy 2:5, and In no other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12.
Scripture assures us of God's watchful care over His children. For he will give his angels charge over you, to guard you in all your ways Psalm 91:11. The angel of Yahweh encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them Psalm 34:7. We also cling to the promise, 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. And we take comfort that But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one 2 Thessalonians 3:3. No weapon that is formed against you will prevail Isaiah 54:17.
We also agree with you that every hidden deed of darkness must be exposed, for we are commanded to Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them Ephesians 5:11. The Lord hates abuse and oppression in any form, whether physical, emotional, or spiritual, and He is a defender of those who cannot defend themselves. We rebuke every scheme of the enemy that would seek to harm your son and we ask God to shine His light into every dark place.
We pray together now.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus and we lift up this beloved son to You. We ask You to place Your hedge of protection around him and to cover him under the shadow of Your wings. Deliver him, Lord, from every form of abuse and from every hand or influence that would harm him in body, mind, or spirit. Expose the deeds of darkness and bring them into Your marvelous light so that truth may prevail and justice may be done. Command Your angels to encamp around him and to guard him in all his ways. Fill his heart with Your perfect peace that surpasses all understanding and strengthen him with Your joy and courage. Heal any wounds he has already endured and let him know deeply that he is seen, loved, and cherished by You. Give his parent wisdom, discernment, and boldness to advocate for him and to take every necessary and godly step for his safety, and surround this family with godly counsel and support. We trust You as his ultimate Protector and Refuge, and we thank You that You are faithful to keep him. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
We encourage you to continue to pray fervently and to also take practical steps as the Lord leads you to ensure his safety, seeking wise and godly counsel and, if needed, the help of trusted authorities or church leaders, for faith is accompanied by action. Keep speaking life and scripture over him daily and remind him of how deeply he is loved by God and by you. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and He will be your strength and his shield through this season.
