Beloved of All
Dear Prayer Team, I am asking for prayer for a very difficult and sensitive family situation that has been going on for many years, and has become much worse recently. My brother has a very severe mental illness. For a long time, he has been emotionally abusive, controlling, and unstable, especially towards our mother. Since our father passed away recently, instead of improving, my brother’s behaviour has become even more intense, unpredictable, and aggressive. There are constant arguments, anger, and emotional pressure in the home. My mother has been deeply affected, to the point of saying she no longer wants to live — which breaks my heart. We have tried everything that is possible: prayer, pastors, missionaries, medication, and even involving authorities in the past. I pray with missionaries once a week for this situation. Still, nothing has truly changed. My mother refuses to leave him, even though she is exhausted, afraid, and suffering every day. Many people have offered her a safe place to stay, but she always says no. Recently, my brother decided he wants to travel to another country and take my mother with him. What worries us is that he wants to leave without telling anyone in the family, and to keep everything secret. He only informed one person outside the family (a bank manager) but did not allow my mom to tell any relatives. I believe that if this trip is God’s will, it could actually be a blessing for him to go as would maybe even improve his behaviour and grow— but only if he goes alone, because my mother is not safe emotionally under his control. I am asking for united prayer for:
• Protection over my mother — emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically
• God’s intervention in my brother’s mind and heart — complete healing and deliverance
• Clarity and strength for my mother to make the right decision and not be controlled by fear or guilt
• For doors to open if it is God’s will for my brother to go without her
• For peace to enter this home and for all darkness, manipulation, and oppression to be broken
• For God’s will and truth to prevail in every detail of this situation
My family is tired, and I am doing my best to stay strong in faith, but this battle is very heavy. I ask for your prayers to cover us, for God to take control, and for a breakthrough that only He can provide. Thank you so much for praying for us. I truly appreciate it from my heart. With gratitude
