Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you today on behalf of our anonymous friend who is struggling with anxiety and depression. We lift up their burdens to you, knowing that you are the source of comfort and peace. Your Word reminds us in Philippians 4:6-7 to be anxious for nothing, but to bring our requests to you with thanksgiving. We ask that you would grant our friend the strength to cast their cares upon you, for you care for them .
Lord, we pray that you would calm their troubled mind and ease their heavy heart. Fill them with your peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus . Help them to find solace in your presence and to trust in your unfailing love.
We also ask for your healing touch upon our friend's mental and emotional well-being. You are the Great Physician, and we believe that you have the power to bring restoration and wholeness. We pray that you would lift the weight of anxiety and depression from their shoulders, replacing it with your joy and hope.
Father, we know that you are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit . We ask that you would draw near to our friend in their time of need, comforting them with your love and assuring them of your faithfulness.
In the name of Jesus, we rebuke the spirit of anxiety and depression that is tormenting our friend. We declare your victory over these struggles, for you have overcome the world . May our friend experience the freedom and peace that comes from surrendering their burdens to you.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, believing that you are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think . May our friend find comfort, strength, and healing in your loving arms.
Amen.
