Justin Bieber has offered a straightforward reply to his mother’s heartfelt prayer for his well-being, which followed growing fan concerns about his recent social media activities.
In the past few months, Bieber’s fans have voiced their worries after a series of unusual Instagram posts by the singer. His mother, Pattie Mallette, also addressed these concerns publicly.
In a post featuring several photos of Bieber, including one where he dons a t-shirt reading ‘pray for me,’ Pattie shared her thoughts: “We’re cheering you on and praying for you always Justin.”
She continued with a powerful declaration: “I declare freedom, strength, clarity, and healing over you Justin. Every chain of fear, confusion, heaviness, and pain—be broken in Jesus’ name.”
She further prayed: “Holy Spirit, surround him with truth, light, and protection. Heal every wound in his heart, mind and body, seen and unseen, restore what’s been stolen, and cover him in WHOLENESS.”
“Fill him to overflowing with Your love and comfort. Continue to raise him up as a voice for Your Kingdom, unshaken and on fire for You Lord. Silence every voice that doesn’t come from You, and let his life be a bold witness of Your power, love, and healing grace. Say amen if you agree.”
A few weeks after her message, Bieber responded directly to his mother’s Instagram post.
“The only thing I need healing from is my rolled pinky toe from playing ping pong,” he remarked, addressing the situation lightheartedly.
Some speculated that Pattie’s post might have been intended to convey a message to Selena Gomez, especially following her marriage to Benny Blanco.
Justin and the Wizards of Waverly Place star were in a relationship from 2010 until 2018, prompting some online users to interpret the post as a signal to Gomez.
“His mom knew his feelings towards Selena since her wedding is tomorrow,” a commenter noted.
Another simply stated: “Nothing, it’s just a Selena’s wedding.”
While some were focused on these speculations, others offered supportive messages in light of Bieber’s social media presence.
A fan expressed: “I’m sending you a big hug and I hope that one day people will realize they’re fueling a spiral of miscommunication and creating fabricated stories.”
Before Pattie’s public remarks, Bieber shared insights on how his faith helps him navigate life’s challenges.
“Jesus teaches that our effort is simply a response to being gifted life and forgiveness,” he explained.
“Jesus becomes the prize.
“And growth becomes something you desire because of the grace we have received.”
