I need prayer for a suicidal friend?

A singer that my sister was following on twitter announced that the first ten people that messaged him on facebook would get a reply from him and my sister was one of them .they started talking and he friended her on his private account later on he said that a big change was coming to his singing career after the release of his new EP ,she asked him what it was and he said suicide .ever since then she has been trying to talk him out of it ,and quoting bible verses and songs that she thought would help him ,but he said he doesn't believe in God " because if God was real he wouldn't have let his sister and father die"

I'm posting this on my sisters behalf she knows him I don't ,but she still doesn't know Him very personally

She is trying to find outhow to contact his mom but that hasent happend yet

Please don't post an answer if you have no intent on praying for him

Update:

He's not really that famous and its not because of that that we want him to live its because suicide is not the answer and he has people that love him and need him like his brothers and mother

And God has a plan for him and loves him only wants the best for his children and wouldn't want this

And we as Christians love him and only hope the best for him and this isn't it

    Man, what's with all these mean answers? I agree that you should try to help him the best you can, but praying for him on free time and telling him you are praying for him will not hurt at all.

    Especially the telling him part. That will be a huge boost for him...

    Also, if possible, try and get him to get help from a doctor. Trust me, it works.

    first when each person is born they tell God at which age they wish to go. when that time comes' if they still insist they go (except in the case of most murders' like that poor soldier) now as I told someone who could not get over the death of her father. say his father and his sister told God they wanted to leave earth and he and others' prayed they would stay. who should God listen to. now say he prayed that he could leave and others' prayed he would not. who does' he think God should listen to. him that wants' to go or the others'. it was their choice as one day it will be his. he has another 69 years' to go if he wishes' it.

    Pray to the god or gods of your choice or pray to the refrigerator and the results will be precisely the same. I strongly suggest that you supply your friend with some real help.

    I won't pray for him. But lemme tell you one thing: there's always HELP, there's always HOPE. Always. Whether you're christian, jewish, muslim, atheist or anything.

    If he`s going to kill himself, that`s his choice. Celebrity or not, the world is better without idiots.

    How about this: "Dear God, please make one single person not kill themself one more person in the world will most certainly change it for the better"?
