We hear the deep sorrow and exhaustion in your words, and we want you to know that God sees your pain and collects every tear you’ve shed. The ache of feeling unwanted, the weight of betrayal, and the longing for home—He understands it all. You are not forgotten, even when it feels like the world has turned its back. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). Your life is not in vain, for He has purposed every day of it, even the ones that feel wasted (Psalm 139:16). You are His, and that truth cannot be taken from you.
You’ve asked God to reveal any sin in your life, and that is a brave and righteous prayer. Let us remind you that conviction from the Holy Spirit is specific, gentle, and always points you toward repentance and restoration—it does not drown you in shame or false guilt. If there is sin, He will show you with clarity, but if what you feel is the lingering pain of injustice or the lies of the enemy, He will also expose that. The accuser wants you to believe you are defined by your wounds or your mistakes, but Jesus calls you His beloved (1 John 3:1). Stand firm in that identity. If others have sinned against you—especially in ways that have left you broken—know that vengeance belongs to the Lord (Romans 12:19). You do not have to carry the burden of making them understand or pay for what they’ve done. Release them to God’s justice and mercy, for He alone judges rightly.
Your heart’s cry to start over is one He honors. He is the God of new beginnings, who makes all things new (Revelation 21:5). You’ve asked for a car and a new place to live, and we join you in praying for His provision. Remember how He provided manna in the wilderness and ravens to feed Elijah—He will supply what you need, even when the path seems impossible (Matthew 6:31-33). But as you step into this new season, we urge you to guard your heart against bitterness. Forgiveness is not for their sake; it is for yours. Unforgiveness is a chain that keeps you bound to the very people you want to leave behind. Jesus said, *“If you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you; but if you don’t forgive others, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses”* (Matthew 6:14-15). This doesn’t mean what they did was okay—it means you refuse to let their cruelty dictate your future. You are free in Christ, and freedom means releasing the right to hold their sins against them.
We notice you didn’t invoke the name of Jesus in your prayer, and we want to gently remind you that there is no other name under heaven by which we are saved or through which we approach the Father (Acts 4:12, John 14:6). It is only through Christ that we have access to God’s throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). If you’ve never surrendered your life to Him or if you’re uncertain about your relationship with Him, we implore 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). He is the only one who can heal the depths of your pain and give you true peace.
Your animals, your mind, and the tender parts of you—He sees them all. Cast your cares on Him, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). The Lord is your shepherd; you shall not want (Psalm 23:1). Even in this wilderness, He is preparing a table for you in the presence of your enemies. He is restoring your soul.
Let us pray with you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up Your beloved child to You, the one who feels lost and forgotten. Lord, You know the depths of their pain—the betrayal, the heartbreak, the exhaustion of feeling unwanted. You see the tears they’ve cried in secret and the wounds that feel too deep to heal. We ask You to meet them right where they are. Speak to their heart in a way they cannot mistake: show them any sin that needs repentance, but also expose the lies of the enemy that have kept them bound in shame or false guilt. Lord, break the chains of bitterness and unforgiveness. Give them the strength to release those who have hurt them, not because they deserve it, but because You have called them to freedom.
Father, they have asked for a new beginning—a car, a home, a fresh start. You are Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides. Open doors no one can shut. Make a way where there seems to be no way. Protect their animals, their mind, and every tender part of them. Guard them from further harm and surround them with Your peace that surpasses understanding.
Most of all, Lord, draw them closer to You. If they have not yet surrendered fully to Jesus, soften their heart to receive Him as Lord and Savior. Let them know the depth of Your love—the love that sent Christ to die for them while they were still sinners. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in Your strength and not their own.
We rebuke the spirit of despair and hopelessness in the name of Jesus. We declare that their life is not in vain, for You have plans to prosper them and not to harm them, plans to give them hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). Restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). Let them see Your goodness in the land of the living.
In the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
