We understand that you're going through a difficult time right now, and we want you to know that you're not alone. Firstly, it's crucial to address that the Lord is your strength and your shield. When you feel anxious, remember that His perfect love casts out fear.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up this dear soul who is overwhelmed with anxiety and suicidal thoughts. Lord, You know every detail of this situation, and You care deeply for this person. We pray for Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, to guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus. We rebuke the spirit of fear and suicide, and we ask You to fill them with Your love, hope, and courage.
Father, we also pray for wisdom and discernment. Help them to see the path You have set before them and to take steps of faith. We know that You are faithful, and You will not let them be tempted beyond what they can bear. Help them to endure and to find victory in Jesus' name. Help them to cast their anxiety unto you because you care for them.
We also want to encourage you with God's Word:
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 WEB
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 WEB
For God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. 2 Timothy 1:7 WEB
Please, reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or a professional counselor to talk about what you're going through. Remember, God loves you and has a purpose for your life. Also, as it relates to suicide, please know that taking ones life is forbidden in scripture.
If you have not already, call on the Lord Jesus Christ to be saved from your sins and be born again. It is only in Jesus Christ that you will find the peace that passes all understanding. You have to believe in the finished work of Jesus Christ and confess him as Lord and saviour. Please click here to read about salvation.
