We lift up this dear one struggling with the heavy burdens of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) before the throne of grace. Heavenly Father, You are the Great Physician, the One who heals all our diseases and binds up our wounds (Psalm 103:2-3). We ask You to stretch forth Your healing hand upon this beloved child of Yours, calming the storms of paranoia, anxiety, and nightmares that rage within his mind and heart.
Lord, we know that true peace comes only from You (John 14:27). We pray that You would quiet the troubled thoughts and fears that plague him, replacing them with Your perfect peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Guide him to the right medical professionals, therapists, and treatments that will bring relief and restoration. Give wisdom to those who care for him, that they may know how best to help.
Father, we also lift up his spiritual well-being. PTSD and TBI can make one feel isolated, forgotten, or even abandoned by You. But we declare that You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). Draw near to him, Lord, and let him feel Your presence in tangible ways. Remind him that he is never alone, for You have promised, "I will never leave you nor forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5).
We rebuke the lies of the enemy that seek to convince him that healing is impossible or that he is beyond Your reach. In the name of Jesus, we command every spirit of fear, despair, and torment to flee (2 Timothy 1:7). We speak life, hope, and restoration over his mind, body, and soul. May he experience the truth of Your Word: "By His stripes, we are healed" (Isaiah 53:5).
We also encourage him to immerse himself in Scripture, for Your Word is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12). May the promises of Your Word be a lamp to his feet and a light to his path (Psalm 119:105). Surround him with a community of believers who will pray for him, support him, and remind him of Your faithfulness.
Lord, we ask that You would restore his joy and give him a renewed sense of purpose. Help him to see himself through Your eyes—as a beloved child, fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Strengthen him in his weakness, for Your power is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). May he find comfort in knowing that You are working all things together for his good (Romans 8:28), even in the midst of this trial.
We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, the One who bore our infirmities and carried our sorrows (Isaiah 53:4). May Your will be done in his life, and may Your name be glorified through his healing and testimony. Amen.
