My life has broken down and I need immediate help

Disciple of Prayer
My life has broken down. I have emergency hospital bills, I am past due on my car payments. I am recovering from nurse burnout, pneumonia and a cardiac issue. I also lost ###lbs in ### months. My body is very stressed. I just got divorced and I keep trying to connect with pastors or their wives in church for help because I feel completely alone but no one has time to talk to me, they say “after the new year will be better” I am in a crisis. I have always struggled with friendships and it’s probably from deep wounds. I am being harassed spiritually even when I go to church the spiritual presence doesn’t feel right. I have prayed and fasted and I will continue to do so but for how long will this last?
 
We hear the depth of your pain and desperation, and our hearts ache with yours as we come before the Lord together in Jesus' name. The weight you carry—physical illness, financial strain, emotional exhaustion, and the loneliness of feeling unseen by those who should extend Christ’s love—is more than any one person should bear alone. But you are not alone, even when it feels that way. The Lord sees you, knows your every struggle, and is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). We stand with you in prayer, declaring that His grace is sufficient for you, and His power is made perfect in your weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9).

First, we must address the spiritual harassment you’re experiencing. The enemy seeks to isolate and discourage, especially when you’re vulnerable. But we rebuke every spirit of oppression, fear, and despair in the name of Jesus. The Bible tells us, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" (James 4:7). You are not imagining this battle—it is real—but Christ has already won the victory. We pray that you would put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18) daily, standing firm in faith, even when the atmosphere feels heavy. The presence of God is with you, even when it doesn’t *feel* like it. His Word says, "I will never leave you nor forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5), and we take Him at His promise.

Your physical and financial struggles are overwhelming, and we lift them to the Lord with urgency. We pray for supernatural provision over your hospital bills, car payments, and every need. The Lord is your Jehovah Jireh, your Provider (Genesis 22:14), and we trust Him to open doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8). We also pray for your body’s healing—from the effects of burnout, pneumonia, and cardiac stress. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and we declare restoration over every cell, organ, and system. The same God who raised Jesus from the dead is at work in you (Romans 8:11), and we speak life over your physical strength.

The pain of your divorce and the rejection from those you’ve reached out to in the church is a deep wound. Loneliness in the body of Christ is a grievous thing, and we grieve with you. But we must also gently address the reality of your situation: divorce is not God’s design for marriage (Matthew 19:6), and while we do not condemn you, we encourage you to examine your heart before the Lord. Have you sought biblical counseling to understand the roots of this brokenness? Are there steps toward repentance or reconciliation (if possible and safe) that the Lord may be leading you toward? We pray for wisdom and clarity as you navigate this season, and we ask the Lord to heal the wounds that have made friendships difficult. The church *should* be a place of refuge, and we are deeply sorry that you have not found that. But we also remind you that Jesus is the friend who sticks closer than a brother (Proverbs 18:24), and He will never turn you away.

You asked, "How long will this last?" We don’t know the timeline, but we know the One who holds it. The psalmist cried out, "How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever?" (Psalm 13:1), and yet he ended that same psalm with, "But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation" (Psalm 13:5). This season is not forever. We pray for endurance, for moments of joy even in the struggle, and for the strength to keep pressing into the Lord. You are not forgotten. You are not abandoned.

Let us pray together now:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister who is weary and heavy-laden. Lord, You see her every need—her physical pain, her financial burdens, her loneliness, and her spiritual battles. We ask You to move mightily on her behalf. Provide for her needs according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19), heal her body, and surround her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).

We rebuke every spirit of oppression and isolation, and we declare that she is a daughter of the Most High God, seated with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6). Father, raise up godly believers around her who will walk with her, pray with her, and show her the love of Christ in tangible ways. Heal the wounds in her heart, and give her the strength to forgive those who have failed her.

Lord, we ask for wisdom as she navigates this season. If there are areas where she needs to seek repentance or reconciliation, reveal them to her. If there are steps she needs to take toward healing, guide her feet. And if she is where You want her to be, give her the grace to trust You even when the path is unclear.

We thank You that You are her refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Sustain her, Lord. Renew her hope. And let her see Your faithfulness in the midst of this storm. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Hold fast to the Lord, dear one. This is not the end of your story. The God who parted the Red Sea is the same God who walks with you now. Keep seeking Him, keep crying out to Him, and keep standing on His promises. You are loved more than you know.
 
Dear friend, we're here with you, holding you up in prayer. We know the weight you're carrying feels immense, but remember, God is always near, especially in the valleys. We're claiming Psalm 147:3 over you, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."

We're praying for supernatural provision. We believe God will open unexpected doors for your financial needs. We're also asking for a double portion of healing for your body. We declare Isaiah 53:5 over you, "By His stripes, you are healed."

We're sorry for the pain you've experienced in the church. We're praying for God to raise up a community around you, people who will walk with you, pray with you, and love you tangibly. We're also asking God to heal the deep wounds that have made friendships difficult.

We don't know how long this season will last, but we know the One who holds the timeline. We're praying for endurance, moments of joy, and the strength to keep pressing into the Lord. You are not alone. You are loved.

Let's pray together now:

"Father, we come before You in Jesus' name. We lift up our sister, heavy-laden and weary. Lord, You see her every need. We ask You to move mightily on her behalf. Provide for her needs according to Your riches in glory. Heal her body and surround her with Your peace. We rebuke every spirit of oppression and isolation. Father, raise up godly believers around her. Heal the wounds in her heart and give her the strength to forgive. Lord, we ask for wisdom as she navigates this season. Sustain her, Lord. Renew her hope. Let her see Your faithfulness in the midst of this storm. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Keep holding on, dear one. God is with you, and He's not finished with you yet. Trust in His love, and keep seeking Him. You are deeply loved.
