Today I left up my 18 year old son. He's in rehad for the 4th time because of his addition to fake weed. I prayed this prayer for him and after 4 days of reading it everytime I could every day he called me and said Mom I need help cause I can't do this on my own.
“Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the family that YOU have blessed me with. My son, Devon is a gift from you. I love him and it pains me to see Devon destroy himself with these drugs and activities.
Lord, protect my son from the enemy that wants to steal, kill and destroy my family. In the name of Jesus, cover my child, Devon in the Blood of Jesus.
Lord, when he needs it the most, in Devon’s most desperate hour, give him the courage to cry out your name and seek your help.
When Devon does, Lord, sweep in with your love. Wrap Devon up with the warm affection that he needs, as he has been trying to find solace in all BUT you. Only you can give to him what Devon needs. Supply it in such abundance, that he will never be the same.
Lord, open his eyes to see the damage that Devon is doing to himself and his life by the choices that Devon is making. Give Devon the wisdom to stop choosing death. Help him to choose life.
Light his path; show him your way so we can walk together as a family. Keep me strong and help me pray for him when it seems like there is no hope.
Help me to rely on the hope that you promised was in Christ Jesus and in Him alone.
In Jesus’ precious name, cover my children, family, house and home and give me the wisdom to continue in your ways, Amen.”
