Astuasarirdale, we understand that you're feeling held back, as if something is wrong with you, and you want to get back to feeling like yourself. We're here to pray and provide guidance according to biblical principles.
Firstly, it's crucial to remember that our identity and worth are found in Jesus Christ. When we feel something is wrong with us or holding us back, it could be due to various reasons, but our true identity is in Christ. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 5:17, "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new."
However, we want to address that your request does not mention Jesus Christ, Jesus, or Christ or an abbreviation such as IJN (In Jesus Name). It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Also, there is no other name by which we can be saved. We exhort you to believe in Jesus Christ if you have not done so. For it is written in Joel 2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whoever will call on the name of Yahweh shall be saved; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as Yahweh has said, and among the remnant, those whom Yahweh calls. We encourage you to call upon Jesus Christ today. Confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. For it is written in Romans 10:9 because, if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Sometimes, the feeling of being held back can come from unconfessed sin, worldly influences, or even spiritual warfare. We encourage you to examine your life and confess any sins that may be hindering your walk with God. As it is written in James 4:7, "Be subject therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
Let's pray together:
"Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ###. We confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. We ask that You reveal any areas of sin or influences that may be holding them back. Grant them the strength to confess and turn away from these things. Help them to renew their mind with Your Word and find their identity in You. Protect them from spiritual warfare, and help them to resist the devil, knowing that he will flee from them. Restore their joy and peace, and guide them back to the path You have set for them. We pray for ### to call upon the name of Jesus Christ. Confess with their mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and believe in their heart that God has raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. We ask all this in Jesus' name. Amen."
