We hear the heavy weight of exhaustion and despair in your words, and we want you to know that you are not alone in this struggle. The Bible tells us in Psalm 34:18, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." Your cry for help has reached the ears of the Lord, and He is already moving on your behalf. Depression and anxiety are real battles, but they are not battles you must fight alone. We stand with you in prayer, believing that God’s strength is made perfect in your weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9).

First, we must address the spiritual foundation of your request. While you have called upon the Lord, we want to gently remind you that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father (John 14:6). There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not already, we encourage you to place your trust fully in Jesus, repenting of any sin and surrendering your life to Him. Salvation is not just a one-time event but a daily walk of faith, and we pray that you would experience the peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7) as you draw near to Him.

Now, let us lift you up in prayer:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister who is weary and burdened. Lord, You see the depths of her struggle with depression and anxiety, and You know the weight she carries each day. We ask that You would pour out Your healing balm upon her mind, body, and spirit. Strengthen her when she is weak, and remind her that Your grace is sufficient for her (2 Corinthians 12:9). Help her to cast all her anxieties on You, for You care for her (1 Peter 5:7). Lord, we pray that the new medications she is taking would bring relief and that You would guide her doctors in their care for her.

Father, we also lift up her marriage to You. We pray that You would restore joy, unity, and love between her and her husband. Help them to communicate with kindness and patience, and let Your peace rule in their hearts (Colossians 3:15). We rebuke any spirit of strife or division and declare that their home would be a place of refuge and blessing.

We pray for her sisters as they travel to Oregon. Lord, surround them with Your angels and keep them safe from all harm. Guide their steps and bring them to their destination without incident. We also ask for Your protection as our sister and her family travel to the state fair and Spirit Mountain. Keep them safe on the roads and fill their time together with joy and good memories.

Father, we ask for healing for her ears and hearing. Calm the ringing and restore her ability to hear clearly. We also lift up her beloved kitty cat, asking that You would bless him with health and vitality. Thank You for the joy he brings to their home.

Lord, we pray for her upcoming dental appointment. Ease her anxiety and grant her peace as she goes. Let the visit go smoothly, and may she leave feeling cared for and at ease.

Finally, Father, we lift up those battling cancer. We declare Your healing power over them, Lord. You are the God who heals (Exodus 15:26), and we ask that You would touch their bodies and bring restoration. Strengthen them in their fight, and let them feel Your presence in a tangible way.

We trust You, Lord, to move in every area of this request. May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Beloved, we want to encourage you to take small steps each day, even when it feels impossible. The enemy would love to keep you isolated and discouraged, but God has called you to a life of purpose and hope. Surround yourself with godly community, people who will pray for you, speak life into you, and hold you accountable. The book of Ecclesiastes reminds us that there is a time for everything (Ecclesiastes 3:1), and this season of struggle will not last forever.

We also encourage you to spend time in God’s Word, even when it feels difficult. Psalm 119:105 says, "Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path." Let Scripture be your guide and comfort. If you are able, consider reaching out to a pastor or Christian counselor who can walk with you through this season. There is no shame in seeking help, God often uses people as vessels of His healing.

Lastly, we want to gently remind you that while medication and doctors are tools God can use, true healing comes from Him. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). He is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). You are deeply loved, and we are standing with you in prayer.

We have been sitting with your prayer and we hear how heavy and strange this season feels. Having to talk yourself into housework and getting on the bike, sitting with the tv because you don't have energy to do more, and wondering what is wrong, that is an exhausting and lonely place to be. We notice you did keep going today and we thank God for the strength He gave you for that.

Since you mentioned you are on new medication for anxiety and depression and that your ears are ringing loudly and your hearing is not good, please let your prescriber and your regular doctor know how you have been feeling, alongside prayer. They can walk with you through what you are experiencing and make sure you have the right support. If you can, let your husband or a trusted friend or pastor know how weighed down you have felt this week so you are not carrying it alone.

We are holding all the other burdens you named as well, your health and your marriage, your sisters traveling to ### and your hope to see family this week, the trips to the fair and to ###, your dentist visit today, your dear kitty, and your friends who are facing cancer.

Father, we lift our sister to You in Jesus' name. Calm her anxious thoughts, ease the heaviness and help her feel Your nearness when she feels lost. Give wisdom to her doctors, touch her ears and hearing, and care for her body. Watch over her husband and their marriage, keep her sisters and loved ones safe in their travels, give her peace for the dentist, watch over her kitty, and bring comfort and care to her friends who are ill. Remind her she is seen and loved by You. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your prayer has been laid before the Lord and before His people, and we have sought mercy at the throne of grace on your behalf.

You describe a weariness that many of the Lord's tried children know well, that heaviness of spirit which makes the limbs slow and the heart slower, so that you must push yourself to do what once was done with ease. Do not think that you are alone in this, nor that God is deaf to such sighs. He healeth the broken in heart and bindeth up their wounds. There are several forms of a broken heart, and some are wounded by this very lowness and depression of spirit, yet while Jehovah lives the mourner need not despair. Sit not down in despair, hope on, hope ever. There is One who careth for you.

You ask what is wrong with you. I would have you know that the very anxiety which arises through your being in a difficulty unfits you to meet that difficulty. Anxiety does not help us to bear the burden, it only bows the back lower. Cast your burden upon the Lord. The least thing about Christ is healing. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations, and not only His fruit but His leaves, the little things as it were about Christ, are full of healing virtue. These healing leaves change the life blood and make the nature other than it was before. Look to Him. Pardon and healing were one when Jesus said, Son, be of good cheer, thy sins are forgiven thee. The Sun of Righteousness has risen with healing in His wings, and when the Lord comes and dwells with His people they have no need to say, I am sick, for healing flows from Him.

There is no hope for you in yourself, but there is hope for you in Him whom God has provided to be the Savior of such as you. When a man is weaned from self and delivered from looking to the flesh for help, there is hope for him. If you look for some reason in yourself why you should be helped and healed you shall never find any, but if you are to be helped for no reason at all but that God wills to show mercy, then there is hope indeed. Though your case is very sad it is not a strange one, there is hope for you in Christ.

We have prayed for you, that the Lord would lift this cloud of depression and anxiety, and give you strength for each day, for housework and for daily duties, and that He would bless the means He has provided, including the physicians and the medicines you are taking for anxiety and depression. Use them with thankfulness and with prayer, and seek His face continually. We have asked the Lord to ease the ringing in your ears and to restore your hearing as it pleases His wisdom, and to take away fear as you go to the dentist today, for He is present in small things as well as great.

We have prayed also for your husband and for your marriage, that the Lord would bring healing and grace to help you to get along in love and patience, for marriage is a lifelong covenant ordained of God, and it is made strong only as Christ dwells in the midst of it. We have asked for safe travel and keeping for your sisters as they come to ### and for you all as you go to see loved ones, to the state fair and to the concert, and to ### and back home again. The Lord keeps the feet of His saints.

We thank God with you for the little creature He has entrusted to you, your cat, and we have asked the Lord to care for him, for the Lord careth for all His works.

And for those dear ones who suffer with cancer, we have prayed most earnestly that the Lord would lay His healing hand upon them according to His perfect will, and above all that they may know the healing which never fails, the pardon of sin through faith in Jesus Christ alone. For there is no other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved, and to be forgiven is to be healed in the deepest sense.

May the Lord turn what is now a ray of hope into a good hope of eternal life through believing in Jesus Christ. Look to Him, trust Him, hear His Word, for faith cometh by hearing, and healing cometh with the teaching of Christ. May He give you high thoughts of God, for high thoughts of God beget hope in the soul and hope leads to confidence.

We commend you to Him who is able to heal though He is not always pleased to heal at once in the way we desire, but who will never cast out any that come unto Him. Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. May you be kept in His peace, and may you find that His grace is sufficient for you, day by day, till He brings you into that place where the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick.

We will continue to pray for you.
