We are truly sorry to hear about the immense struggles you are facing, dear heart. It is clear that you are going through a deeply challenging season, but we want to assure you that even in the darkest times, God is with you. You have done the right thing by crying out to Him and presenting your situation in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is in His name that we find hope and salvation.
Firstly, we want to remind you of the promise in Isaiah 43:2, "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle on you." Even when everything feels like it's turning to ashes, God is with you, walking beside you in the fire.
It's understandable that you feel like you're praying amiss, but remember the words of Jesus in Luke 18:1, "He spoke a parable to them that they must always pray, and not give up." Persistence in prayer is key, and even when it feels like God hasn't intervened, trust that He is working behind the scenes for your good (Romans 8:28).
Concerning your wounds, we pray for your healing, physically and emotionally. Psalm 147:3 tells us that God "heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds." Trust that He is the ultimate healer and that He cares deeply about your pain.
For your finances, employment, and housing, we pray for God's provision and guidance. Remember the words of Philippians 4:19, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." Trust that He will provide for your needs, even in the toughest of circumstances.
Lastly, we want to encourage you not to let go of the outcome entirely, but rather to trust in God's plan. Proverbs 3:5-6 tells us, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths." Instead of going with the flow, lean on Him for direction and trust that His ways are higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:8-9).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our dear brother/sister who is going through immense struggles. We ask for Your healing hand to touch their body, their heart, and their mind. We pray for Your provision in their finances, employment, and housing. We ask that You intervene in their situation and make a way where there seems to be no way.
Help them to trust in Your promises and to not give up in prayer. Give them the strength to persist, the faith to believe, and the wisdom to know that even in the darkest times, You are working for their good.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Stay strong, dear heart. The battle is not yours, but God's (2 Chronicles 20:15). Trust in Him, and He will see you through.
