Losing faith

Anonymous

Beloved of All
I’m in so much pain in my heart soul and mind. I’m losing faith. I don’t believe God loves or cares for me. Please pray for me.
 
We hear the deep pain in your heart soul and mind and we are lifting you up together before the Lord in Jesus name. We know what it is to feel that faith is slipping away and to wonder if God truly loves and cares for you, and we want to gently speak truth over those painful feelings because feelings can overwhelm us but they do not change the truth of God's Word.

The enemy would have you believe that God has forgotten you or that your pain means He does not love you, but that is a lie we rebuke in Jesus name. The truth is that God sees your brokenness and draws near to you in it. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit Psalm 34:18. He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds Psalm 147:3. We cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you 1 Peter 5:7. That care is not distant or conditional, it is personal and present even when you cannot feel it.

We also noticed your request did not mention the name of Jesus and we want to lovingly remind you that it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and assurance of His love. Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me John 14:6. There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life John 3:16. If you have not already, we encourage you to call upon the name of Jesus, to confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, for that is how we are saved and brought into the Father's love Romans 10:9. His love for you was proven at the cross while you were still in pain and doubt, and nothing can separate you from it. For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God's love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord Romans 8:38-39.

We want to encourage you not to walk through this alone. God does not want you to hold up your faith by your own strength. He says Don't you 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. When faith feels weak, bring even that weak faith to Him honestly in prayer, stay in His Word even a little each day, and seek fellowship with other believers who can stand with you and pray for you. Your pain is real and God is not disappointed in you for struggling, He invites you to pour out your heart to Him.

We pray together for you now.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and we lift up this precious one who is hurting in heart soul and mind. Lord You see the tears and the heaviness and the thoughts that say You do not love or care. We ask You to rebuke those lies and to reveal Your unfailing love in a fresh and tangible way. Pour out Your comfort and peace that passes all understanding, heal the broken heart and bind up every wound, and renew the mind with Your truth. Strengthen faith where it is weak, help unbelief, and hold this dear one fast with Your righteous right hand when they have no strength to hold on. Let them know without doubt that they are loved, seen, and never forsaken, and draw them closer to Jesus where true hope and salvation are found. We ask that You restore joy and give a renewed desire to seek You daily, and surround them with godly support and encouragement. We pray all of this in the mighty and loving name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, amen.
 
We are so glad you told us honestly where you are. When pain sits so deep in your heart and mind for a long time, it is understandable to wonder if God has stepped away or stopped caring. Feeling distant from Him does not mean He is distant from you, even though in that heaviness it can certainly feel that way.

What you are describing is something many believers experience in seasons of deep discouragement, that sense of being alone and even punished or forgotten. Those feelings are powerful, but they are not the full truth of who God is or how He sees you. He remains near and compassionate, even when your heart cannot sense it right now.

You do not have to carry this alone. It would be a good next step to let one trusted person in today, whether a pastor, a counselor, or a faithful friend who can sit with you and pray with you regularly. If this heaviness has been staying with you, please also consider reaching out to your doctor or a counselor alongside prayer, so you have support for both your soul and your body.

We are praying for you and we will keep praying.

Father, we lift this dear one to You who feels weary and unsure of Your love. Draw near in a way that can be felt, bring rest to a tired mind and heart, and give wisdom and steady companions to walk alongside. Show Your care day by day and lead gently forward. In Jesus' name, amen.
 
Your painful cry has been heard, and it has moved our hearts to carry you before the throne of grace. To feel such heaviness in heart and soul and mind, and to fear that God does not love or care for you, is a deep affliction indeed, and we do not pass it by lightly.

Hear what the Scripture says, for your feelings, though very real, are not the measure of truth. It is written, The just shall live by faith. Not by feeling, not by strength of our own, not by the brightness of our frames and feelings, but by faith. In the purest spiritual sense we become just before God through faith in Christ alone, not by tears, nor prayers, nor humbling, nor works, nor any goodness of our own, but by a simple and utter dependence upon the faithfulness of God in Christ Jesus. Being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, and by Him we have access into the grace wherein we stand.

You say, I am losing faith, I do not believe God loves me. Remember that faith is the hand of the soul, and without it we have no grasp of eternal things. Yet even the least faith in Jesus is the gift of God, and it is like precious faith. If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you can do wonders, for a little faith saves, though it may not yet comfort and strengthen as great faith does. The Lord does not despise the day of small things. He who has given you even the desire to cry out for help has already been at work upon your heart, for the eyes with which we look to Jesus are opened by Him, and Christ is revealed in us by the Spirit of God.

David was once in the cave of Adullam, fled from his foe and hidden in the clefts of the rock, and there he said, I will cry unto God most high, unto God that performeth all things for me. His soul trusted in the Lord, and in the shadow of His wings he made his refuge until these calamities were overpast. Faith is always an active grace, and its activity is first manifested in prayer. Though you feel faith to be weak, let that weak faith pray. Cry unto God most high. Tell Him all, as faith is in the habit of going to God with all her burdens and coming away with her load removed.

Do not wrap yourself up and say it is well with me when it is not, and do not conclude that because you are poor and miserable in your own sight you are so in the sight of God. God estimates men by their faith in His Son, and He is faithful to His promise and to His oath, which is confirmed and sealed with the blood of the Only Begotten. To doubt that promise is to do Him no honour, but to trust Him, even with trembling, is to please Him, for without faith it is impossible to please God, but by faith we recognize Him, approach Him, speak to Him, hear Him, and are delighted with His perfections.

We are praying for you, and we ask the Lord to do for you what only He can do.

O God most high, who performest all things for Thy people, look in mercy upon this wounded soul who is in pain of heart and mind and fears Thy love is gone. Lord, increase faith where it is little, and kindle it where it seems to fail. Reveal Thy Son anew, and grant the peace that comes by being justified through faith in Him. Let this dear one know that salvation is in Christ alone, and that whosoever believeth in Him is born of God and accepted in the Beloved. Give a living, working faith that works by love, that lays hold on Thy promises and feeds upon them, and grant to feel again Thy presence and Thy care. Keep this soul under the shadow of Thy wings until these calamities be overpast, and bring out of this darkness a stronger confidence in Thy faithful Word. For Jesus sake, Amen.

Cast yourself anew upon Christ as you are, with all your pain and all your doubt. He receives sinners and He will not cast out one who comes to Him. Live by faith upon Him day by day, and He will keep you, and sanctify you, and perfect His work in you.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God is so in love with you. Be Encouraged!

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
