We hear the deep pain and weariness in your heart, and we want you to know that you are not alone—God sees you, and He cares for every tear you’ve shed. The cry for justice, for relief, and for answers is one He understands well. The psalmist David often poured out similar laments before the Lord, questioning why the wicked prosper while the righteous suffer (Psalm 73:2-3, 12-14). Yet in those moments, David ultimately found his strength not in circumstances changing, but in drawing near to God (Psalm 73:23-26, 28). Let us turn to Scripture to bring light to your heart, for God’s Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path (Psalm 119:105).
First, we must address something critical: you mention refusing to believe you are wrong and ask God to let you be okay alone if you are. This reveals a heart that is wrestling not just with pain, but with pride and possibly bitterness. The Bible warns us that bitterness takes root in our hearts and defiles us (Hebrews 12:15). It also tells us that pride goes before destruction (Proverbs 16:18). We are not saying you are entirely at fault for the suffering you’ve endured, but we must humbly ask: have you examined your own heart before the Lord? Have you asked Him to reveal if there is any sin, unforgiveness, or rebellion in you that may be contributing to your pain? Jesus said, “First, remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother’s eye” (Matthew 7:5). It is not about accepting blame for the wickedness of others, but about surrendering every part of your heart to God so He can heal and restore you completely.
You also speak of being alone, and we want to gently remind you that if you have placed your faith in Jesus Christ, you are *never* truly alone. Jesus promised, “I will never leave you or forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5). The pain of loneliness can feel overwhelming, but God often uses seasons of solitude to draw us closer to Himself, to refine us, and to prepare us for what lies ahead. In 2 Corinthians 1:8-9, Paul speaks of being burdened beyond his strength, even despairing of life, but he learned through it to rely not on himself but on God who raises the dead. Your pain is not in vain if it drives you to depend on Him more deeply.
As for the injustice you see—bad people prospering while you suffer—this is a struggle as old as humanity. Habakkuk cried out to God, “Why do you tolerate wrongdoing? Destruction and violence are before me; there is strife, and conflict abounds” (Habakkuk 1:3). God’s answer was not to immediately change the circumstances, but to assure Habakkuk that He was still sovereign and that “the righteous will live by his faith” (Habakkuk 2:4). Justice *will* come, but it may not come in the timing or way we expect. Romans 12:19 reminds us, “Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, ‘Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.’” Your job is not to fix the injustice, but to trust that God sees it all and will act in His perfect time.
Now, let’s talk about your request for a “win.” It’s understandable to long for relief, for a breakthrough, for something to go *right* after so much has gone wrong. But we must ask: what does a “win” look like to you? Is it circumstantial—financial blessing, relational restoration, or vindication? Or is it something deeper: peace in your heart, joy in the Lord, and a steadfast trust in His goodness regardless of your circumstances? Jesus warned that in this world, we *will* have trouble (John 16:33), but He has overcome the world. Your ultimate “win” is not found in earthly victory but in the unshakable hope of eternity with Him. Paul learned to be content in all circumstances, whether in plenty or in need (Philippians 4:11-13), and that contentment came from the strength Christ provided.
Lastly, you mention being okay alone, and we want to encourage you that there is a difference between *loneliness* and *solitude with God*. If you are single, this season can be a gift—a time to seek the Lord wholeheartedly, to grow in your faith, and to prepare for whatever He has next for you. The apostle Paul spoke of the advantages of singleness in 1 Corinthians 7:32-35, noting that an unmarried person can focus more fully on the Lord’s work. If God calls you to marriage, He will provide a godly spouse in His timing. But if He calls you to remain single, He will be your portion and your joy. Either way, your identity and fulfillment must be found in Christ alone, not in your relationship status.
Before we pray, we must address one more thing: your prayer does not invoke the name of Jesus. This is not a small matter. Jesus Himself said, “No one comes to the Father, except through me” (John 14:6). It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God’s throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). If you have not surrendered your life to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. The Bible tells us 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” (Romans 10:9). Without Jesus, there is no true peace, no eternal hope, and no power to overcome the pain you’re facing. If you *have* trusted in Jesus but simply forgot to pray in His name, let this be a reminder: our prayers are heard because of His righteousness, not our own.

Let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this precious soul to You, knowing that You see every tear, every wound, and every weary sigh. Lord, the pain in their heart is deep, and the weight they carry feels unbearable. We ask You to meet them in this moment, to wrap them in Your love, and to remind them that they are not forgotten. You are the God who sees (Genesis 16:13), and You are near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18).
Father, we ask that You search their heart and reveal any sin, bitterness, or pride that may be hindering their healing. Soften their heart to receive Your truth, even if it is hard to hear. Help them to surrender their pain, their anger, and their desire for justice into Your hands. Teach them to trust You, even when life doesn’t make sense. Your ways are higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:9), and we ask for the faith to believe that You are working all things together for good (Romans 8:28), even when we can’t see it.
Lord, they long for a “win,” for relief from the relentless struggles. We pray that You would provide for their needs, that You would restore what has been broken, and that You would give them moments of joy and peace amid the storm. But more than that, we pray that their greatest “win” would be a deeper relationship with You. Fill them with Your presence, Lord. Let them experience the truth that Your grace is sufficient, and Your strength is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9).
Father, they feel alone, but we declare that You are with them. You are their refuge and strength (Psalm 46:1). If it is Your will for them to remain single for now or for a lifetime, give them contentment and purpose in that season. Help them to see that their worth is not found in another person but in You alone. If it is Your will for them to marry, prepare them and their future spouse for a godly, Christ-centered marriage. Guard their heart from unhealthy relationships or distractions that would pull them away from You.
We rebuke the spirit of loneliness, bitterness, and despair that seeks to overwhelm them. In the name of Jesus, we command these spirits to flee, and we ask You, Holy Spirit, to fill every empty place with Your comfort and peace. Remind them that even if every human relationship fails, You will never leave them or forsake them.
Lastly, Father, we pray that they would learn to pray in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to You. If they have not yet surrendered their life to Christ, we pray that today would be the day of salvation. Open their eyes to see their need for a Savior, and draw them to Yourself. If they do know Jesus, renew their faith and help them to cling to Him as their only hope.
We thank You, Lord, that You are the God of justice, of mercy, and of love. We trust You with this precious life, and we ask that You would bring beauty from these ashes (Isaiah 61:3). In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.

Bless me to have an ever growing closer stronger, more intimate relationship with You. Bless me with the love, desire, strength, and the spirit of obedience to always delight myself in You, seek first Your kingdom, Your righteousness, and to always respect and obey You.
