My life is falling apart and God feels far away

Eredless · Dec 4, 2024

I need help, prayers, I need to God to help me as I know only He can, but He feels far away from me. For the past few years I've struggled with my faith as everyday things around me seemed to get worse, the past two years have been the worst period in my life. I lost my mom to cancer after a few short months of her getting diagnosed, she was my rock and amazing prayer warrior. I had to go into debt just to bury my mother properly and support my family. I have been a lifeline for everyone in my life, giving all that I can of myself and whatever means I had to share. Now, there is no one that can or will help me. Everyday I am swarmed by a plague of debt collectors that refuse to work with me. My debt grows and my hope shrinks. My credit has been irreparably damaged and I have no means to fall back on. I have attempted to gain income from other jobs, other side ventures, anything that might yield a little hope and despite asking God at every turn to go before, they all fail. I have begged on my knees many nights for God to turn his face toward me, even for a moment but it feels as if He says no. I know that scripture teaches us to ask, and I have. I have asked God for a miracle, I have even asked Him just spare me for one day, and it never comes. I'm tired, I've become too tired to pray anymore. I've reached a point where it feels like the only thing God wants is for me to die. I know that isn't true but it's hard to see anything else now. I am on the verge of losing everything and yet God is silent. Please offer prayers for me if you will. This is a desperate chance of God listening to someone, anyone, else. Thank you and God keep you always.

We understand that you are going through a tremendously difficult time, and our hearts go out to you. We are here to pray with you and to offer biblical encouragement and guidance.

Firstly, it is crucial to remember that God is always with us, even when He feels far away. In the WEB, He promises, Never will I leave you, nor will I forsake you. Be bold and courageous in Hebrews 13:5-6. Even when we do not feel His presence, we must hold onto His promise by faith.

In your prayer request, you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God the Father. As it is written, for there is one God and one mediator of the covenant of reconciliation for all men in the One 1st Timothy 2:5. There is no other way to by which we must be saved one other then the name Jesus Christ as written in Acts 4:12.

We want to encourage you to keep praying and not to lose heart. In Luke 18:1, Jesus told His disciples that they should always pray and not give up. Even when we feel too tired to pray, we can cry out to God like the psalmist did in Psalm 61:2, From the end of the earth will I call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Regarding your financial struggles, we want to remind you that God cares about our needs and that we can trust Him to provide for us. In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus teaches us not to be anxious about food, clothing, or anything else, but to seek first God's kingdom and His righteousness, knowing that God will provide for our needs.

We also want to address the feeling you have that God wants you to die. This is not from God, but rather a lie from the enemy. God has plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future as written in Jeremiah 29:11.

Lastly, we want to rebuke 19:9 the idea that God is silent.

Even when we cannot hear Him, God is always communicating with us.

Let us pray for you:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ### in their time of need. Lord, we ask that You reveal Your presence to them in a tangible way and that You grant them the strength and courage to keep praying and trusting in You. We rebuke and bind any spirit of heaviness and despair, and we loose the Spirit of joy and hope. In the name of Jesus, leave ###.

We pray and agree for their financial needs to be met and for their debts to be supernaturally cancelled in the name of Jesus. We pray for the power of darkness, and the spirit of debt to leave in the mighty name of Christ We also speak life and restoration to their credit and finances. We request that You open doors for new opportunities for employment and provision. Surround ### with Godly counsel, Christian friends. People that will speak life and hope to their current situation.

Lord, we also pray for comfort and healing from the loss of their mother, and we ask that You raise up Godly people to support and encourage ### during this difficult time. We cancel the power of death and hell and rebuke the assignments of the enemy that ### would die or leave this earth before their assignment is complete on the earth.

We extend the permission for the Lord's holy power and kingdom to come to ###'s situation.

Thank you for the your Son Jesus Christ sacrifice on the cross for your sins as the bible states the wages of sin is death but the gift of the Father through Jesus Christ is eternal life. Renew salvation within ### and restore if necessary. When you die there will be no longer tears, or debt, or sorrow on the other side when you make Jesus Christ Lord.

Thank you for the ###'s prayer request. We pray that our response reaches their heart.

We pray this all in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

We're right here with you, friend. We understand the weight you're carrying, and we want you to know that you're not alone. We've been praying for you, and we want to encourage you with something from Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." God sees you, He knows your pain, and He is here to heal and mend your broken heart.

We've been where you are, feeling like God is far away, and it's hard to keep going. But remember, even in the darkest night, the sun is still shining, even if we can't see it. God is always with us, and He promises in Matthew 11:28-29, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Jesus is inviting you to come to Him, to rest, and to learn from Him.

We know you've been through so much, losing your mom, the financial struggles, and the feeling of being overwhelmed. But remember, God is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5-6). He sees your tears, He hears your cries, and He is working even when you can't see it.

We want to remind you of the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19. Elijah was exhausted and felt alone, but God met him in a whisper. God is not silent; He is speaking to you, even in the quiet moments. Be still and know that He is God (Psalm 46:10).

We're here for you, and we'll continue to pray for you. We claim these verses over your life: Psalm 34:18, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." And Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."

We love you, and we're believing with you for a turnaround in your situation. Keep trusting, keep praying, and know that God is with you. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We continue to lift you up in prayer, interceding on your behalf during this challenging time. We are truly grateful that you have allowed us to stand in agreement with you, pleading your case before the throne of grace. If God has already intervened and answered your prayer, we would be delighted to hear your praise report and join you in offering a sacrifice of praise.

If you are still feeling overwhelmed and God seems distant, please know that we are persisting in prayer with you. We encourage you to share an update, so we can continue to petition God for your specific needs. We understand that it may feel like God is far away, but please remember that He is always near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).

In these difficult times, cling to the promise that God never leaves you nor forsakes you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Even when it feels like He is silent, He is working behind the scenes for your good (Romans 8:28). Take heart, and take one day at a time.

Together, let us pray in Jesus' name:

Father God, we come before You, lifting up our dear brother/sister in Christ. We ask for Your mercy and grace to surround them during this time of trial. Lord, help them to feel Your presence and experience Your love. We pray for their debts to be miraculously cleared, for doors of opportunities to open, and for their hope to be renewed. We speak life, victory, and restoration over their situation. Strengthen their faith, Lord, and help them to know that You are always with them, even in the darkest valley. Bring them comfort and peace, and let Your will be done in their life.
