We lift up your son and his friend before the Lord, standing with you in prayer for their exoneration and for God’s justice to prevail in this difficult season. The deliberate loss of your son’s personal belongings—his underwear, artistic drawings, future plans for a prison app to help others, and legal papers—is not only unjust but a violation of trust and dignity. Yet we know that nothing escapes the sight of our Heavenly Father, who sees the affliction of His people and will act on their behalf. As Scripture declares, *"The Lord executes righteous acts, and judgments for all who are oppressed"* (Psalm 103:6, WEB). We pray that the Lord would expose every act of corruption and negligence within this system, bringing to light the truth and holding accountable those responsible for this wrongdoing.
It is encouraging to hear that your son has accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior—what a mighty testimony of God’s grace even in the midst of trial! His salvation is the greatest victory, and we rejoice with you that his name is now written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. Though he faces the possibility of years in confinement, we cling to the promise that *"the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing"* (James 1:3-4, WEB). This trial is not in vain; the Lord is refining him, equipping him, and using his story for a purpose far greater than what the enemy intended for harm.
We also commend your son for following the proper channels and filing a formal complaint. Yet we know that man’s systems are flawed and often fail to deliver justice. Therefore, we cry out to the Lord, who is the ultimate Judge and Advocate. *"Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna"* (Matthew 10:28, WEB). Let this be a reminder that while earthly authorities may act unjustly, they do not have the final say. We pray that the Lord would move mightily in this situation—whether through the restoration of his belongings, the reimbursement he is owed, or a supernatural intervention that brings about his freedom. *"The king’s heart is in Yahweh’s hand like the water courses. He turns it wherever he desires"* (Proverbs 21:1, WEB). May the Lord turn the hearts of those in authority to act with integrity and fairness.
At the same time, we must address the reality of his incarceration. If your son is indeed facing charges, we pray that the Lord would grant him wisdom and godly counsel as he navigates the legal process. If there has been any wrongdoing on his part, we ask the Lord to bring conviction and repentance, for *"he who covers his sins shall not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them shall have mercy"* (Proverbs 28:13, WEB). True freedom begins with a heart surrendered to Christ, and we pray that your son would walk in the liberty that comes from obedience to God’s Word, regardless of his physical circumstances.
We also lift up his vision for a prison app to help other inmates. This is a beautiful example of how God can use even the darkest of places for His glory. We pray that the Lord would restore his plans and give him divine connections, resources, and favor to bring this vision to fruition. *"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future"* (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB). May the Lord use your son’s gifts and experiences to minister to others behind bars, pointing them to the hope found only in Christ.
Finally, we stand with you in faith, declaring that no weapon formed against your son shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). The enemy may seek to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that he might have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We bind every spirit of injustice, oppression, and delay in the mighty name of Jesus, and we loose the power of the Holy Spirit to move on his behalf. *"The Spirit of the Lord Yahweh is on me; because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to those who are bound"* (Isaiah 61:1, WEB). May this Scripture be fulfilled in your son’s life, and may the Lord grant him a testimony of deliverance that brings glory to His name.
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of this mother and her son, asking for Your divine intervention. You are the God who sees the afflicted and hears their cries. Lord, we ask that You would vindicate our brother and his friend, bringing justice where there has been wrongdoing. Restore what has been stolen, recompense what has been lost, and move in the hearts of those in authority to act with righteousness. If there are legal battles ahead, we ask for Your wisdom and favor to surround him like a shield. Give him peace that surpasses understanding, and let him know that You are with him, even in the valley of the shadow of death.
We pray for his protection—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Guard his heart from bitterness and his mind from despair. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, that he may be a light in the darkness, a witness to Your grace and power. Lord, if it is Your will, we ask for his exoneration and release, that he may walk in the freedom You have purchased for him through the blood of Jesus. But even if the road ahead is long, let him know that You are with him, and that You will never leave him nor forsake him.
We thank You, Lord, for the salvation of our brother. Use this trial to draw him closer to You, to strengthen his faith, and to prepare him for the work You have called him to do. Give him divine connections and open doors that no man can shut. Let his story be a testimony of Your faithfulness, and let many come to know You through his life.
We rebuke the enemy’s plans to steal, kill, and destroy. We declare that no weapon formed against him shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against him in judgment shall be condemned. We speak life, hope, and victory over him in the name of Jesus. Lord, let Your will be done in his life, and let Your kingdom come in this situation. We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Amen.
