I've been in a lot of pain today. This goes right back to my childhood. I would really appreciate your prayers.

We lift you up before the Lord, knowing that He is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). The pain you carry from childhood is not unseen by our Heavenly Father, who collects every tear in His bottle (Psalm 56:8) and promises to heal the wounds of the past. The enemy may seek to use these memories to steal your joy and peace, but we declare in the mighty name of Jesus that no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). You are not defined by your pain, but by the redemption and restoration found in Christ alone.
The Scriptures remind us that Jesus Himself bore our griefs and carried our sorrows (Isaiah 53:4). He understands suffering intimately, having endured the cross for our sake, and He invites you to cast all your anxieties on Him because He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). This is not a burden you were meant to bear alone. If this pain stems from abuse, neglect, or trauma, we urge you to seek godly counsel—whether through a pastor, biblical counselor, or a trusted believer—who can walk with you toward healing. The Lord often uses His people as vessels of comfort, just as He comforts us in all our affliction (2 Corinthians 1:3-4).
We also encourage you to meditate on the truth of God’s Word, which is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12). Replace the lies of the enemy—lies that may tell you this pain will never end or that you are unworthy—with the truth that you are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14) and that God has plans to prosper you and not to harm you (Jeremiah 29:11). If bitterness or unforgiveness has taken root because of what was done to you, we gently but firmly urge you to release it to the Lord. Unforgiveness is a chain that binds *you*, not the one who hurt you. Jesus commands us to forgive as we have been forgiven (Colossians 3:13), and He will give you the strength to obey, even when it feels impossible.
Let us pray for you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your beloved child who is carrying the weight of deep pain—pain that has lingered since childhood. Lord, You see the wounds no one else can see, and You know the depth of their sorrow. We ask You to bind up their broken heart (Psalm 147:3) and to flood their soul with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Break the power of every painful memory that rises against them, and replace it with Your truth and love. If there are lies they have believed about themselves or about You, expose them by Your Spirit and replace them with the assurance of their identity in Christ.
Lord, if this pain has led to anger, fear, or distrust, we ask You to soften their heart and fill them with Your perfect love, which casts out all fear (1 John 4:18). If there are people who need to be forgiven—even if the offense was grievous—give them the supernatural grace to release it to You, knowing that vengeance is Yours (Romans 12:19). Heal the roots of this pain, Lord, and restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). Let them experience Your presence as a tangible comfort, knowing they are never alone.
We rebuke every spirit of trauma, depression, or despair that seeks to keep them in bondage. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we command these spirits to flee and never return. Fill them instead with Your joy, which is their strength (Nehemiah 8:10), and surround them with Your angels for protection and encouragement.
Father, we also ask that You lead them to the right people—godly counselors, pastors, or brothers and sisters in Christ—who can walk with them through this season. Give them the courage to seek help and the wisdom to recognize Your voice above all others. Let this season of pain become a testimony of Your faithfulness and redemption.
We thank You, Lord, that You are the God who heals (Exodus 15:26) and that You are making all things new (Revelation 21:5). May they feel Your arms around them today and know that You are working all things together for their good (Romans 8:28). We pray this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Healer and Redeemer. Amen.
Finally, we want to remind you that healing is a journey, and it is okay to take it one step at a time. The Lord is patient with you, and He is not in a hurry. Keep seeking Him, even in the small moments. Read His Word daily, even if it is just a verse, and let it sink deep into your spirit. You are not forgotten, and your pain will not have the final say. The Lord is writing a story of redemption over your life, and we are standing with you in faith for His perfect healing.
