In despair

[Elizabeth F]

Please forgive me for posting so many times but as the topic heading says I am in despair
I have fought my illnesses, both physical and mental,for many years but honestly don't think I have any fight left.
My body is wracked with pain and can hardly walk and my mind is tormenting me every single second and can't take it any more.
I have believed God was going to heal me so many times during these many years and each time it didn't happen it plunged me deeper into despair

I need to know whether I could be doing something to block God's healing for me? I have forgiven everyone and asked for forgiveness for all my sins including the sin of doubt and fear.
I am so worried about my sister Margaret as she isn't well and looks so old.
I know my health takes its toll on her and I feel so guilty. Also we have had very little sleep for many years so are exhausted.
PLEASE Jesus end our suffering now and heal us so that we can glorify God and tell everyone about you. Please tell me if I am doing anything to stop the healing?
We can't go on Ike this so please come and help us now. In Jesus' name. Amen

Elizabeth, we understand the depth of your despair and we are here to lift you up in prayer and offer guidance from God's Word. We recognize your pain and the toll it's taking on you and your sister Margaret. Let's seek God's will together.

Firstly, it's commendable that you've forgiven others and sought forgiveness for your sins. As it's written in Mark 11:25 (WEB), "When you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions." This act of forgiveness opens the door for God's healing and blessing.

However, it's crucial to remember that healing comes in God's time and according to His will. In 2 Corinthians 12:8-9 (WEB), the Apostle Paul pleads with the Lord to remove a thorn in his flesh, but the Lord's response is, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Sometimes, God's strength is shown through our weakness, and His healing may not always come in the physical form we expect.

It's also important to address the mental anguish you're experiencing. In Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB), it says, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." God's peace can guard your heart and mind, even in the midst of suffering.

Let's pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Elizabeth and Margaret. Lord, You know their struggles and their pain. We ask for Your healing touch, according to Your will. Grant them the strength to endure, and fill their hearts with Your peace. Reveal to Elizabeth if there's anything hindering her healing, and help her to trust in Your timing. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Lastly, we encourage you to continue hoping in God. In Romans 5:3-4 (WEB), it says, "We also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope." Your hope in God will not be put to shame. Keep holding onto Him, and may His peace and healing be upon you and Margaret.

We're here with you, Elizabeth, in this valley of despair. We feel your pain and understand the weariness that comes from long-term illness and sleepless nights. We're not going to leave you hanging, but stand with you in prayer, seeking God's will together.

We've been thinking about your question, "Could I be doing something to block God's healing for me?" It's a valid question, and it's important to look at our hearts. In Psalm 66:18 (WEB), it says, "If I had not confessed the sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened." So, let's ask God to search our hearts (Psalm 139:23-24). If there's anything hindering your healing, He'll reveal it to you.

We're also concerned about your sister Margaret. Let's ask God to give her strength and comfort. In 1 Thessalonians 4:18 (WEB), we're encouraged, "Comfort one another with these words."

Let's pray:

"Dear Lord, we come to You, trusting in Your love and care. We lift up Elizabeth and Margaret before You. Lord, You see their pain and their struggles. We ask for Your healing touch, according to Your will. Grant them strength to endure, and fill their hearts with Your peace. Reveal to Elizabeth if there's anything hindering her healing, and help her to trust in Your timing. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Remember, Elizabeth, God is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). Keep trusting in Him, and let's keep walking this path together, one step at a time. We're here for you.

I have a few things I want to share with you, if any of the things I said are not for you I apologize in advance and I ask God to remove anything that's not for you. Because not everyone's journey is the same. But that at the same time I pray He will highlight what is for you. God bless you.

God has said one time to me "if I don't heal you, would you still want Me?". That hit like a ton of bricks. I was suffering real bad. Real. Bad. Felt like I couldn't go on at all anymore. But I came to the conclusion, yes, I would still want God. He is still worthy to be praised, for who He is, even if He does not heal me. It also forced me to shift my focus from my suffering to who He is.

And then He told me He wanted me to change my behavior. He wanted me to praise Him. And shine His light to the world around me, even through my deep, deep suffering and the little I was/am capable of doing because of my suffering. Because even though one can suffer tremendously as a christian, we should not suffer as the world suffers, because we have the hope of all humanity with us, Jesus. Unbelievers should still see the difference between a believer and an unbeliever that is suffering. Sometimes the greatest test is representing God and His goodness well to the outside world that doesn't know Him yet while we are suffering really, really bad.

But also an important note, sometimes deliverance is needed. We as christians are not exempt from demonization, and sometimes demons need to be cast out. I've needed a lot of deliverance, still going through the process. And that can bring a lot of relief in many areas.

I pray God blesses and comforts you. For I genuinely do know about intense suffering, so I'm not coming from the outside peeking in, not knowing what it's like, I (unfortunately) do know what it's like. May the peace of God that surpasses all understanding guard your mind and heart and may He fill you with the fruit of His Spirit. That even through suffering you'll bear His love, gentleness, kindness, long-suffering, peace, joy, goodness, faithfulness and self control. And that they may shine through you as a testimony to those around you. In Jesus name I pray, amen
