Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, on behalf of our anonymous friend who is feeling overwhelmed by depression and is in desperate need of Your help. Lord, You are the source of all comfort and peace, and we ask that You would wrap Your loving arms around them in this difficult time. Your Word reminds us in Psalm 34:17-18 that when the righteous cry for help, You hear them and deliver them from all their troubles. We pray that You would deliver our friend from the depths of despair and bring them into a place of hope and healing.
Lord, we also lift up the request to stop all verbal abuse against our friend. Your Word teaches us in Proverbs 18:21 that the power of life and death is in the tongue. We ask that You would intervene and put an end to the hurtful words that are being spoken against them. Fill their heart and mind with Your truth and love, and shield them from the attacks of the enemy. Help them to find strength and courage in You, knowing that You are their defender and protector.
Lastly, we cry out to You, Jesus, to save our friend. You are the Savior who came to seek and save the lost. We pray that You would rescue them from the darkness they are experiencing and bring them into the light of Your salvation. Your Word assures us in Romans 10:13 that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. We claim this promise for our friend and ask that You would reveal Yourself to them in a powerful way, bringing them into a personal relationship with You.
Lord, we trust in Your faithfulness and Your ability to answer our prayers. We thank You for Your love and compassion towards us. May Your peace that surpasses all understanding guard our friend's heart and mind in Christ Jesus . In Jesus' name, we pray.
Amen.
