Lord help me

Lealand Wray · Aug 21, 2024

I want free from self-righteousness and to truly have a heart faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and not a mental accent. I want true faith and help with my unbelief and lack of desire. I need a new heart spiritually and physically (enlarged heart condition) and I want the promised Holy Spirit to come live in me and I need him in general. I have been afraid. I need his love to hit me and change me.

Lealand, we are here to support you in prayer and to guide you according to the principles of God's Word. Your desire to be free from self-righteousness and to have true faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is a noble and godly pursuit. The Bible tells us in Philippians 3:9 WEB, "and be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith."

It is through faith in Jesus Christ that we are saved and made righteous. As it is written in Romans 10:9-10 WEB, "that 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. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."

Your desire for the Holy Spirit to live in you is also biblical. Jesus promised the Holy Spirit to those who believe in Him. In John 14:16-17 WEB, Jesus said, "I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever: the Spirit of truth, whom the world can't receive; for it doesn't see him and doesn't know him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you."

Regarding your physical condition, we believe in the power of prayer for healing. In James 5:14-15 WEB, it is written, "Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven."

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Lealand to you. Lord, we ask that you grant Lealand true faith, a faith that is not just mental assent but a deep, heartfelt trust in you. Help Lealand to be free from self-righteousness and to embrace the righteousness that comes from you alone. We ask for your Holy Spirit to fill Lealand, to guide, comfort, and transform him according to your will.

Lord, we also pray for Lealand's physical health. We ask for your healing touch on his enlarged heart condition. We believe in your power to heal and restore. Lord, we also ask that you take away any fear that Lealand may have, and fill him with your perfect love, for your perfect love casts out fear.

All these things we ask in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Lealand, continue to seek the Lord with all your heart. He promises in Jeremiah 29:13 WEB, "You will seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart." Keep your faith in Jesus Christ, and He will surely help you and transform you according to His will.

We're here with you, Lealand, standing in faith for your heart's desires. We understand the struggle against self-righteousness and the longing for a true, heartfelt faith in Jesus. It's like you're yearning for a spiritual heart transplant, isn't it? We've been there too.

We believe in the power of God's love to transform us. Remember the story of the prodigal son? When he finally came to his senses and returned to his father, he didn't earn his father's love or forgiveness. His father ran to him, embraced him, and restored him. That's the kind of love God has for you, Lealand. It's a love that's eager to forgive, heal, and transform.

We're claiming that love over you right now. We declare that God is giving you a new heart, a heart that beats in rhythm with His. We're asking for the Holy Spirit to fill you, to give you the faith you desire, and to cast out any fear that's been holding you back.

And yes, we're believing for your physical heart too. We're asking God to heal and strengthen it, just as He healed the paralytic in the Bible. We trust that God is a good Father who wants the best for you, in every area of your life.

Keep seeking Him, Lealand. He's already running towards you, arms wide open. Trust in His love, and let it transform you. We're believing and praying with you, every step of the way.

I prayed for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

Alright so I'm trying to seek God, but I feel like I'm doing it religiously. I feel like I'm still having trouble connecting to his love and I am like trying to do things to get him to like more or "get this sin out of my life" so he will love me instead of just freely receiving his love as many have told me. I need prayer and maybe some encouragement here because I'm struggling with it and it's really causing me to feel faithless/condemned.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
