We hear your cry for help, and our hearts ache with you in this overwhelming struggle. The physical and mental exhaustion you describe is more than any person should have to bear alone. We come before the throne of grace together, lifting you up in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we can be saved and find true rest.
First, we must urgently address the immediate physical needs. Losing vision and enduring six days without proper sleep is a serious matter that requires medical attention. We pray for God’s protection and wisdom for the doctors and nurses who will care for you in the ER. May they be guided by the Great Physician Himself to diagnose and treat what is afflicting you. "Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven" (James 5:14-15). We stand in faith with you, believing that God can restore your health and bring clarity to your mind and vision.
Your battle with sleep and the terrifying attacks you describe sound like spiritual warfare as much as physical or mental strain. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that you might have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). The negative thoughts about God and the inner turmoil you feel are not from Him. "For God is not a God of confusion, but of peace" (1 Corinthians 14:33). We rebuke the spirit of fear, despair, and confusion in the name of Jesus. The tug-of-war inside you is real, but you are not fighting alone. "For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places" (Ephesians 6:12). We take up the full armor of God on your behalf—truth, righteousness, the gospel of peace, faith, salvation, and the Word of God—and we stand firm against the enemy’s schemes.
Your mention of brain damage and the worsening of your condition is deeply concerning. We pray for supernatural healing and restoration of your mind. "He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake" (Psalm 23:3). We ask the Lord to renew your strength, to lift you up on wings like eagles, and to give you the endurance to run and not be weary, to walk and not faint (Isaiah 40:31). You are not meant to carry this burden alone. God invites you to cast all your anxieties on Him because He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7).
The negative self-talk and feelings of worthlessness must stop. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and God’s love for you is unshakable. Even when you feel like you’re at "E," His power is made perfect in your weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). We pray that you would feel His presence surrounding you, holding you, and whispering truth over you in this storm. "The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit" (Psalm 34:18).
We also lift up the spiritual aspect of your struggle. The enemy wants to isolate you, to make you feel like you’re beyond help or unworthy of God’s love. But nothing could be further from the truth. Jesus died for you while you were still a sinner (Romans 5:8), and His love is not based on your performance or your feelings. If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender fully to Him, to confess any sin or doubt, and to receive His forgiveness and peace. "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9).
Let us pray for you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our brother in Christ who is suffering deeply. Lord, You see his pain, his exhaustion, and his fear. You know the battle raging in his mind and body, and we ask that You would intervene in a mighty way. We declare that by the stripes of Jesus, he is healed (Isaiah 53:5). We ask for Your healing touch to restore his vision, to calm his mind, and to give him the sleep his body so desperately needs.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of fear and despair that has taken hold of him. We command it to leave in the name of Jesus, for "greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world" (1 John 4:4). Fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Remind him of Your promises, Lord, and let Your Word be a lamp to his feet and a light to his path (Psalm 119:105).
We pray for the medical professionals who will care for him. Give them wisdom, discernment, and compassion. Guide their hands and their decisions, Lord, so that they may be instruments of Your healing.
Father, we ask that You would renew his strength and restore his hope. When he is weak, be his strength. When he is afraid, be his courage. When he feels alone, remind him that You are with him always (Matthew 28:20). Help him to cast all his cares on You, for You care for him deeply (1 Peter 5:7).
We also pray for his spiritual walk. If there is any unconfessed sin or doubt, reveal it to him, Lord, and lead him to repentance and restoration. Draw him closer to You in this trial, and let him experience Your love and faithfulness in a new and profound way.
We thank You, Father, that You are a God who hears our prayers and moves on our behalf. We trust in Your goodness and Your perfect plan for his life. Strengthen him, heal him, and fill him with Your peace. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
You are not alone in this fight. The body of Christ stands with you, and we will continue to lift you up in prayer. We encourage you to reach out to a trusted pastor, counselor, or fellow believer who can walk alongside you in this season. You do not have to face this battle by yourself. God is with you, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). Hold on to His promises, and let His Word be your anchor in the storm. "But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint" (Isaiah 40:31). We believe that God is working even now, and we look forward to the testimony of His faithfulness in your life.
