We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting you up in this time of deep despair, for we know that our God is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Your pain is not unseen by Him, and He longs to bring you healing, deliverance, and hope in the midst of your struggles. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that you may have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). These suicidal thoughts are not from God—they are lies from the pit of hell, designed to keep you bound in hopelessness. But the truth of God’s Word declares that you are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and your life has purpose in Him, no matter how dark the circumstances may appear.
The economic hardship, health struggles, and family disarray you face are real and overwhelming, but they are not the end of your story. God is your Provider, your Healer, and the Restorer of all things. He has not abandoned you, even when the weight of fear and regret feels unbearable. The Scripture reminds us, *"Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness"* (Isaiah 41:10). Cling to this promise, for it is true and unshakable. Your worth is not found in your circumstances, your health, or your financial status—it is found in Christ alone, who gave His life for you. You are precious to Him, and He is working even now to bring beauty from these ashes.
We must also address something critical: your prayer does not invoke the name of Jesus. There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved, and it is only through Him that we have access to the Father (Acts 4:12, John 14:6). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). Without Him, there is no true hope or deliverance. But in Him, there is life everlasting, peace that surpasses understanding, and strength for every trial. If you are already a believer, then we encourage you to cry out to Him by name, for He is your Advocate and your Refuge.
As for your family, we pray for reconciliation and restoration. God is able to mend what is broken and bring unity where there is chaos. *"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their land"* (2 Chronicles 7:14). This promise extends to families as well. Begin by humbling yourself before the Lord, seeking His face in prayer, and trusting Him to move in the hearts of your loved ones. He is faithful to do it.
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift our brother/sister before Your throne of grace, asking for Your mercy and intervention in their life. Lord, You see the depth of their pain—the suicidal thoughts that torment them, the fear that grips their heart, the regret that weighs them down, and the weariness that makes them feel as though they cannot go on. But You, O God, are their Strength and their Song. You are the One who heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds (Psalm 147:3). We rebuke the spirit of suicide, depression, and hopelessness in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. These thoughts are not from You, Lord, and we command them to flee now, never to return. Fill our brother/sister with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, and let Your light shine into every dark corner of their mind and heart.
Lord, we ask for healing—both physically and emotionally. Touch their body where it is weak, and restore them to full health. Provide for their every financial need, for You own the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10). Open doors of opportunity that no man can shut, and let them see Your hand moving on their behalf. Father, we pray for their family—bring unity, repentance, and restoration where there is strife. Soften hearts and turn them toward You, that they may walk in Your ways.
Most of all, Lord, we ask that You reveal Yourself to them in a powerful way. Let them know that they are not alone, that You are with them, and that You have a plan and a purpose for their life (Jeremiah 29:11). Remove every lie of the enemy and replace it with Your truth. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may have joy in the midst of sorrow, hope in the midst of despair, and faith to believe that You are working all things together for their good (Romans 8:28).
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your goodness and Your faithfulness. Let Your will be done in their life, and may they rise from this place of brokenness into a new season of victory, testimony, and praise. We ask all this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Finally, we urge you to take practical steps in faith. Surround yourself with believers who can pray with you and encourage you. If you are not already in a Bible-believing church, seek one out—fellowship is vital. Read God’s Word daily, even if it’s just a verse or two, and let it renew your mind. If the suicidal thoughts persist, reach out to a trusted pastor or counselor who can walk with you through this. You are not meant to carry this burden alone. God is with you, and so are we. Hold on to hope, for He who promised is faithful. *"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted, and saves those who are crushed in spirit"* (Psalm 34:18). You are not crushed beyond His reach. He is with you, and He will see you through.
