### Prayer for Healing from Depression
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up Your child, who has been battling depression since childhood. In Your boundless compassion, You see her struggles, her pain, and her heart. We remember Your promise in Psalm 34:18, that You are close to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit. Lord, draw near to her in this time of need.
We pray for Your healing hand to touch her mind, body, and spirit. May the truth of Jeremiah 17:14, "Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for You are my praise," be her testimony. Grant her the profound peace and comfort that only You can provide, surpassing all understanding, as promised in Philippians 4:7.
Encourage her heart, O God, and renew her spirit. Just as You spoke through Isaiah 41:10, saying, "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand," let these words be a constant reminder of Your presence and support in her life.
We ask for wisdom for those providing her care—guide their decisions and treatments according to Your will. Surround her with love, understanding, and the support of those who cherish her, reflecting Your love in action.
Lastly, we pray for patience and endurance for her and those who love her, remembering the encouragement in Romans 5:3-5, that suffering produces endurance, endurance produces character, and character produces hope—a hope that does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray,
Amen.
May this prayer offer some comfort and hope to her, you, and your family during this challenging time. Remember, the journey toward healing is often gradual, but with God's grace and the support of loved ones, profound healing and peace are possible.
