September 20, 2023 at 10:44 amHey all, this is a first-time prayer request. I should have come sooner the issue has been going on for a couple years now, well, actually much longer, but we have just known about it for a little while.
A little background. My son is 15. We adopted him from Russia and brought him home when he was 28 months. He has always been a hand full, but for the most part we have had a wonderful life together. It’s me, him and his mom (my wife). A couple years ago he was diagnosed with Reactive attachment disorder (RAD). It’s a tough one to explain, but it’s a disorder that effects the emotions and attachment of a child who has faced Trama in their young lives. At about age 12, he started going down a very dark path, one we were not prepared for. We tried just about everything to help him. He would show progress for a while, we would think we were on the right path and then it would all go south.
A few months ago, we checked him into a residential therapy school. We had our ups and downs, but it really seemed to be going well. He really connected with his therapist, She grew to really know him well. He liked the staff and the other kids. We really thought he was making great progress. Then, last Friday, they had to take him to the ER for drinking something to try to get drunk.
My prayer request is for help. I don’t even know what to ask for at this point, just help for my wife and I, but mostly my son. He has so much to offer this world, but the RAD is getting in the way of it. Like I said this has been going on for years (I could go into more detail, but this is already too long)) and my wife and I are almost at the end. We have been praying for years to no avail. I understand the whole “his time”. We hear that all the time, but we are in need of help. I’m at the point where my human emotions are getting in the way of faith. We need help, we need spiritual intervention.
I appreciate this community, have been listening for a couple years.
Thank you all,

September 20, 2023 at 3:09 pmFather God I lift Ross and his wife to you now Lord. Thank you that he has reached out and sought prayer. Lord you have great plans for their son. You know him better than they do, better than any therapist or doctor as you created him. Father I ask you to please bring relief to this young man and his parents. No-thing is too great for You and we praise you Lord for that. Please bring strength as this family travels through the wilderness. Help them to remain strong in You in Your word and keep their eyes lifted up towards You. Help them to continue to be the example their son needs to see and Father I ask that you’d open their sons heart to receive their love and Your healing. Father please rebuke the enemy from this boy – Satin you must flea in Jesus’ name, Amen.
Ross – just the other day (maybe 09.18.23 or 09.19.23 on the DABC, Lady of Victory shared that when you don’t know what to pray just pray the Lords prayer (Matt 6:5-14). She gave a great commentary on it. Maybe give it a listen, so good.

September 20, 2023 at 4:05 pmThank you Gods Sunshine for your response and the link to DABC which I believe will be helpful to Ross and his wife. Praying in agreement with Gods Sunshine and adding few Encouragement through the book of psalms and proverbs which I believe gives you guidance and wisdom in which way to go. Be hopeful that your son will improve and God will intervene and bring the best out of him. Abba Father and Restorer; I lift our brother Ross and his wife to Your able throne where all petitions are looked into and solutions are found. Thank You Jesus, May your words be like a lamp that lights Ross’s way. May your love be like a compass that gives him direction. Please Lord, water this son like a garden. Lay your guiding hands on him and guide him where you will have him go In Jesus name Please open the eyes of Ross and heart to the direction you want him to take with his son. Help him to make wise decisions that will lead their son closer to your path for his life. Amen Father, give Ross clarity of direction so he can plan the next steps to take for his son according to Your will and not his own. Lord, I trust You to provide the financial and other resources this family needs, and the patience to wait, for wisdom and creativity to move forward, as You lead and guide them 🙏 Psalm 32:8 “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.”Psalm 119:105: “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” Be encouraged my dear sibling. Blessing 🙏
