[Articles]

We join you in bringing your whole family before the throne of grace and we thank you for your honest and humble cry for help, for yourself, for your dad's heart, for your mom's brain, for your bedridden grandma and for your own healing. We hear your weariness, your loneliness, your stress, your depression, and your feeling of being in darkness with no way out, and we want you to know that the Lord hears you too and He is near to you even now.

The Lord says in Psalm 34:18, The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. And in Psalm 103:2-3, Praise the Lord, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases. We stand on this promise as we pray for healing for your family. We know that every healing is according to His will and His mercy, and we ask Him to touch your dad's heart, to touch your mom's brain, to strengthen and comfort your grandma in her bedridden condition and to heal her toes and her whole body, and to bring healing and wholeness to you as well. Jeremiah 30:17 says, For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says the Lord. We also cling to Isaiah 53:5, But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.

We also hear your confession about being addicted to the internet and shopping and dreaming all the time, about covetousness, about being easily tempted, and about bitterness and resentment toward your mom. We love you enough to speak the truth in love about these things, because God calls us to turn from them. The shopping and internet addiction you describe is a form of covetousness and idolatry, wanting what we do not have and looking to things to fill a place only God can fill. Exodus 20:17 commands, You shall not covet, and Luke 12:15 warns, Beware Beware of covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses. Hebrews 13:5 says, Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you. Also 1 Corinthians 6:12 says, All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of anything. When we allow the internet or shopping or constant dreaming to have power over us, we are not walking in the freedom Christ bought for us. Romans 12:2 calls us, Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

We also gently address the bitterness and resentment toward your mom that you mentioned. Hebrews 12:15 warns, lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it. And Ephesians 4:31-32 says, Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you. We know caring for a bedridden grandma while carrying stress and exhaustion is very hard, but God honors that service. Colossians 3:23 says, And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men. And 1 Timothy 5:8 reminds us of the importance of caring for our own family. We pray God gives you fresh strength and tenderness to care for her.

You said you are always sinning and feel you are in darkness with no way out, and that you were an atheist. We rejoice that you are now calling on the name of Lord Jesus Christ and pleading the blood of Christ, because that is the only way out of darkness. John 8:12 says, I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life. 1 John 1:7 says, But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanses us from all sin. And 1 John 1:9 promises, If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. You do not have to stay in the cycle of sin and shame. Romans 8:1 declares, There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. Through faith in Jesus, your past atheism and all your sins are forgiven when you repent and believe. Romans 10:9 says, that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. John 14:6 says, Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, and we are so thankful you called on Him.

We pray together for you and your family now.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, and we plead the blood of Jesus over this dear soul and over this family. Lord, forgive all our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. We confess our covetousness, our addiction to shopping and the internet, our idle dreaming, our bitterness and resentment, our depression and our former unbelief, and we ask You to wash us clean. Lord, deliver us from every sin that entangles us and lead us out of darkness into Your marvelous light. Heal this dad's heart, heal this mom's brain, heal this grandma who is bedridden and suffering in her toes and body, and heal this dear one who is lonely, stressed, tired and depressed. Let Your healing power rest on each one according to Your perfect will. Take away the spirit of heaviness and give the garment of praise. Take away bitterness and give a tender, forgiving heart toward mother and toward all. Break the power of addiction and set us free to serve You with a clear mind and a content heart. Teach us to be good stewards of our time and money and to find our joy in You alone. When we are tempted, make a way of escape as You promised in 1 Corinthians 10:13. When we are weary, give us rest as You promised in Matthew 11:28, Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Help us to care for our grandma with patience and love, and help us to walk in hope and not in despair. We ask this for all people as well, that many would know Your healing and Your salvation. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit, guide us into fellowship with other believers, into Your Word and into prayer daily, so we may know You more and be transformed. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, amen.

We encourage you to keep seeking Him daily, to open the Bible and pray even when you feel tired, to limit your time on the internet and shopping by setting clear boundaries and asking a trusted Christian for accountability, to bring every covetous thought captive to Christ, and to choose forgiveness toward your mom each day as Christ forgave you. Galatians 6:9 says, Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up. God is not disappointed in your imperfect service, He delights in your turning to Him. Keep calling on Jesus, keep confessing, keep walking in the light one step at a time, and He will be faithful to complete the work He has begun in you and in your family.

We hear how heavy this has felt for you, carrying worry for your dad's heart, your mom, and your bedridden grandmother while feeling lonely, stressed and tired yourself. Thank you for being so honest about the internet and shopping habits, the constant dreaming, the covetousness and bitterness toward your mom, and the sense of being stuck in darkness and sin. Wanting to know Jesus and to care better for your grandmother even while you feel depressed and worn out is a real and good desire, and we want to stand with you in it.

What you describe makes sense, when life is lonely and stressful and caregiving is demanding, scrolling, shopping or escaping into daydreams can feel like relief for a moment but then leave you more tired and discouraged. Lasting change rarely happens by trying harder alone. It helps to have people alongside you.

One small step that could help this week is to bring one trusted person into what you are carrying, a pastor, a Christian counselor, or your doctor, and share honestly about feeling depressed, exhausted, and caught in these habits, as well as the health concerns for your family. For your dad, mom and grandmother, please also keep their medical providers involved alongside prayer.

Father, we lift this dear family to You in Jesus' name. Please bring Your light into the darkness they feel, cover them in the blood of Christ, and draw each of them closer to knowing You. Bring healing and care for dad, mom and grandmother, and give wisdom to their doctors and strength for caregiving. Lift the heaviness, ease the loneliness and stress, and loosen the grip of temptation and covetousness. Soften bitterness and resentment and give a renewed heart and rest. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your cry from darkness has been read with much tenderness and prayer, and we have carried you and your household before the Lord who hears the weary and the broken in heart.

You confess that you are tired, lonely, stressed, depressed, easily tempted, always sinning and seeing no way out, addicted to the internet and to shopping and to dreaming, and burdened by covetousness and by bitterness and resentment toward your mother. You also tell us plainly that you have lived as an atheist and now you say, I am sorry, I want to know you, please deliver me. That sorrow itself is a gracious work. Our first sight of Christ brings bitterness into our soul, not a bitter feeling against Him, but a bitter mourning for Him and for our sin against Him, as one mourns for an only son. God makes sin bitter to us and there dwells in that bitterness a power that helps to sanctify us. That bitterness makes Christ very sweet, for when sin is seen as exceeding sinful, the blood of Christ becomes exceeding precious, and the world with its charms, its shops, its endless images and dreams, loses its hold upon the true believer.

You speak also of loneliness, and of caring for a bedridden grandmother while your own heart is heavy. Our Lord knows this loneliness most intimately. He was left alone just when most, as Man, He needed human sympathy, and yet He said, You shall leave Me alone and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me. His loneliness did not destroy Him, though it pained Him, and His brave self surrender in that loneliness has an awfulness of love in it. In deep soul conflict, when faith must fight for very existence, He is near to those who feel forsaken. You are not alone in that dark room, nor at that bedside, for the Father is with those who look to the Son.

You ask that all bitterness and resentment toward your mother be taken away. Hear this gracious effect of that holy bitterness for sin. One effect of it upon the soul that feels it is to take away all bitterness against your fellow men. When we mourn for Him whom we have pierced, we learn to forgive as we have been forgiven, and to put away the gall of bitterness.

You tell us you are in depression of spirit and that you cannot stop. Gifts cannot comfort a man when he is in deep depression of spirit, when he is sick and especially when near to despair. Many a man lying on a sickbed has found comfort in the grace which God has given him, but there never was one who found comfort in his gifts. Depression of spirit often leads to slackness of hand, so that many through sad hearts have ceased to labor for Christ. What you need is not more resolve alone, but grace, the free favor of God in Christ, which alone can comfort and strengthen you to walk in newness of life. Grace preferred to gifts will keep you when temptation comes again to the screen or to the shop.

We have prayed for your father's heart and for your mother's brain and for your bedridden grandmother, even for her toes, that the Lord in His mercy would lay His healing hand upon them according to His wise and good will. We have prayed also for your deliverance, that the Lord Jesus Christ, by His blood shed on the cross, would bring you and your family out of darkness into His marvelous light. For salvation is through Jesus Christ alone, and there is no other name by which we must be saved. Turn from trusting in yourself or in any other hope, and look to Him alone who bore our sins in His own body on the tree.

Seek Him daily in His Word, even a few verses at a time, and in plain, honest prayer, such as you have already begun. Put away the occasions of temptation where you can, bring your struggle into the light with a faithful pastor or a mature believer in a true church, and ask for help to watch over your time and your spending. In caring for your grandmother, ask the Lord for grace to serve with patience and gentleness, doing the small things faithfully as unto Him.

We now pray for you. O Lord Jesus Christ, for the sake of Your blood, have mercy upon this soul and this family. Forgive all sins, atheism, covetousness, and every other trespass, and wash away guilt and shame. Deliver from the chain of internet and shopping and vain dreaming, and set the feet upon the rock. Take away bitterness and resentment, and give a tender heart toward mother and toward grandmother. Comfort the depressed and weary heart, and let Your presence be known in loneliness and stress. Heal according to Your mercy, the father's heart, the mother's brain, the grandmother's body, and above all heal the soul by bringing all into living faith in You. Make Christ sweet to this soul, and make this soul faithful in love to You. Amen.

Continue to seek Him. He has said, Him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out. Look to Him, and look again, till light breaks through the darkness.

Praying for this request in Jesus Name.

 

[Jonathan_M]

Praying for this request in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

Your honest and sorrowful prayer has been heard, and we thank you for bringing it before the Lord with such openness. You have confessed your sins, your weariness, your loneliness and depression, and your desire to know Christ and to be delivered from darkness. That confession itself is a work of grace, for God draws near to those who humble themselves and call upon the name of Jesus Christ, through whose blood alone we are brought out of darkness into light.

We are praying for you and for your family as you asked. We pray for your father's heart to be healed and strengthened, for your mother's brain to be healed, and for your bedridden grandmother to be healed and cared for, even to her toes. We pray that the Lord in His mercy would grant healing according to His wise and loving will, and that He would give you strength and tenderness as you care for your grandmother. We pray also for all people as you asked, that many would be delivered from darkness through the blood of Christ.

You have spoken plainly about being addicted to the internet and to shopping, about dreaming all the time, about covetousness and being easily tempted, and about feeling that you are always sinning with no way out. Scripture teaches that covetousness is not a small fault but idolatry, because we make a god out of what we crave. It enslaves us with a bitter bondage, and like all idolatry it comes from an insatiable appetite that God did not create. The Lord calls us to turn that strong desire in a new direction, to hunger and thirst after righteousness as much as we once hungered for more possessions or more distraction. When we cut away excess and learn moderation, we find a healthier way to live.

You also spoke of bitterness and resentment toward your mother, and of feeling tired and depressed. Bitterness is described as a root. A root of bitterness does not bear sweet fruit, because all that grows from it is bitter and full of hatred. The way to be free is to drive away bitterness, lying, uncleanness and covetousness from the soul, and to become kind, tender hearted and forgiving toward one another. When we do this, nothing hinders the Holy Spirit from coming and filling our hearts, and when that great light is kindled within us, the way of virtue becomes easier and not so difficult.

You said you want to serve the Lord but are easily tempted, and that your life is lonely and stressful. The Scripture says that no temptation has taken you except what is common to man, and God is faithful. He will not let you be tempted beyond what you are able to bear, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, so that you may be able to endure it. Often God allows a season of trial or delay in answering prayer not to harm us, but to draw us to Himself, as a loving father allows a little fear so that his child will run to his arms. So keep praying even when you do not see an immediate answer. Persevere that you may receive, and when you receive, give thanks. God is contriving by such perseverance to keep you close to Him.

You wrote that you are sorry for being an atheist, for sinning, and for not doing a good job, and that you are in darkness and want to know Jesus. Know this, that salvation is through Jesus Christ alone, and His blood is sufficient to take you and your family out of darkness. If you confess your sins, He is faithful to forgive because of that blood. Do not remain in despair. Turn from covetousness and all sin, ask the Lord to forgive you and to fill you with His Spirit, and hunger daily for righteousness through prayer, reading Scripture, and simple obedience.

We pray for you now, that the Lord Jesus Christ would deliver you from covetousness and from all sins, take away all bitterness and resentment, lift your depression, and bring you out of darkness into His light. May He give you a way of escape in every temptation, teach you moderation in place of excess, give you love and patience as you care for your grandmother, and fill your lonely and stressful days with His presence. May He make you well in body and soul, and keep you and your father, mother and grandmother in His care. Continue to seek Him, to pray, and to walk in kindness and forgiveness, and trust that He who has begun a good work in you will carry it to completion.
