We hear your cry for healing and we stand with you together before the throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is by His name that we are saved and healed.
We understand the weight you are carrying when you say everything feels taken from you and lies have such a strong hold that you cannot even think or function. This is a spiritual battle for your mind and heart, and we want to remind you that our God is a God of truth and restoration, while the enemy is the father of lies. Jesus said in John 8:44 that the devil does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him, but Jesus also promises in John 8:32 you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free, and in John 14:6 Jesus says I am the way, the truth, and the life.
The confusion and inability to think clearly is not from God, for God wants to renew your mind and give you peace. We are called in 2 Corinthians 10:5 to bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and in Romans 12:2 to be transformed by the renewing of your mind. When lies shout the loudest, we must answer them with the Word of God.
We also take comfort that God sees your brokenness and wants to heal you. Psalm 147:3 says He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. Isaiah 53:5 reminds us by his wounds we are healed. Psalm 34:18 says Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. And when anxiety overwhelms your thoughts, Philippians 4:6-7 promises in nothing be anxious, 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.
We pray together for you now.
Father in heaven, we lift up this dear one to You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. You see how weary and overwhelmed they are, how lies have tried to take hold and steal peace and clarity. We rebuke those lies in Jesus name and we ask You to expose every deception and replace it with Your truth. Lord, heal this wounded heart and mind. Touch every place that feels empty and taken from, and restore what the enemy has tried to steal. Pour out Your peace that surpasses all understanding to guard their heart and thoughts. Give them clarity to think and strength to function again, for Isaiah 41:10 says do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not 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. Help them to take every thought captive to Christ and to dwell on what is true and good. Let Your Holy Spirit bring comfort, healing, and soundness of mind. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Healer, amen.
We encourage you to stay rooted in the Word daily, even if just a few verses at a time, to let truth wash over your mind. Speak scripture aloud over yourself when lies arise. Seek fellowship with faithful believers who can pray with you and counsel you, and cast all your cares on Him because He cares for you as 1 Peter 5:7 says. God is not finished with you, He is near to you in this pain and He is faithful to heal and restore.
