We are truly sorry to hear about the struggles you've been facing, and we appreciate your openness in sharing them with us. We are reminded of God's word:
Trust in Yahweh with all your heart,
and don’t lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB
In your request, we do not see that you are coming in the name of Jesus Christ, Jesus, Christ, or even an abbreviation such as IJN (In Jesus Name), then make sure to discuss this issue. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Also, it is only in that name by which we can be saved.
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me. Revelation 3:20 WEB
There is no other way to have access to the Father but by Jesus Christ. If you have not done so, repent and believe in Jesus Christ. If you have already done so, let us pray for your faith to be restored.
Let's pray together for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up our dear ### who has been battling depression and unbelief for so many years. Father, you know their heart and their struggles. You know their desire to love and praise you, but the feelings of desperation and low self-esteem have hindered them.
We stand in the name of Jesus as a community of believers to pray for their deliverance from these chains.
Father, we ask that you reveal your loving presence to them in a tangible way and fill their hearts with your peace. Give them the strength to trust in you with all their heart and lean not on their own understanding. Help them to acknowledge you in all their ways, so that you can make their paths straight.
We also pray for their complete healing from depression and low self-esteem. Father, you are the Great Physician, and we believe that you can restore their joy and give them a new song to sing.
In the name of Jesus, we rebuke the spirit of depression and unbelief that has been tormenting them. We command it to leave and never return, in Jesus' mighty name. We ask for the guidance of the Holy Spirit to dwell in them and fill them with faith, hope, and love.
We have read in your word:
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition 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
Father, we ask that the Holy Spirit would remind our ### of this truth daily, and that they would experience your perfect peace.
We ask all of this in the powerful name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Amen.
We encourage you to hold firmly to the promises of God and remember God's word:
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
Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you don’t know. Jeremiah 33:3 WEB
Please continue to seek God with all your heart, and He will meet you where you are. Surround yourself with a community of believers who can support and encourage you in your journey of faith. Remember, God is faithful, and He will complete the good work He has started in you.
