Peace and anxiety and fear low self esteem and healing

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.
We lift up your heart before the Lord, knowing that He is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Your burdens are heavy—fear, anxiety, low self-esteem, and the deep sorrow of watching your mother and another loved one face cancer while not knowing Christ as Savior. These are not small things, and we want you to know that God sees your pain and cares deeply for you. He has not abandoned you in this valley, and He invites you to cast all your anxieties on Him because He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7).
First, let us address the spiritual condition of your loved ones. The most urgent need is for their salvation, for what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul? (Mark 8:36). Without Christ, there is no hope beyond this life, no assurance of peace or eternal life. We must pray fervently that the Holy Spirit would open their eyes to their need for a Savior and that they would turn to Jesus in repentance and faith. There is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is only through Christ that anyone can come to the Father (John 14:6). If they have not yet surrendered to Him, we must intercede with urgency, for we do not know the number of their days.
Scripture tells us that the fear of man is a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe (Proverbs 29:25). Your fear of being hurt and your struggles with low self-esteem reveal a heart that may be looking to the world—or to people—for validation and security. But true peace and identity are found in Christ alone. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and if you have placed your faith in Jesus, you are a child of God, adopted into His family, sealed by His Spirit (Ephesians 1:5, 13). Your worth is not determined by the opinions of others or by your circumstances but by the blood of Jesus shed for you. He has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-discipline (2 Timothy 1:7). When anxiety rises, we are to bring our requests to God with thanksgiving, and His peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:6-7).
As for the cancer that your loved ones are facing, we know that God is sovereign over life and death. He is the Great Physician, and nothing is too difficult for Him (Jeremiah 32:17). We will pray for healing, trusting that His will is perfect, even if His answer is not what we hope for in this moment. Our ultimate prayer is that, whether in life or in death, they would be His (Romans 14:8). If it is His will to heal them, we praise Him for it. If it is His will to call them home, we pray they would go in faith, trusting in the finished work of Christ.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts heavy with sorrow and fear, yet we trust in Your goodness and sovereignty. Lord, we lift up this dear one who is carrying such deep burdens—the weight of anxiety, the pain of low self-esteem, and the fear of being hurt. Father, we ask that You would wrap them in Your love and remind them of their identity in Christ. Break the chains of fear and replace them with Your perfect peace. Let them know, deep in their soul, that they are loved by You, that they are redeemed, and that their worth is found in Jesus alone. Strengthen them by Your Spirit to walk in confidence, not in their own strength, but in Yours.
Lord, we also bring before You their mother and their loved one who is battling cancer. Father, we ask for Your healing touch to be upon them. You are the God who heals, and we pray that You would restore their bodies, that the cancer would be eradicated, and that they would be made whole. But even more than physical healing, we pray for their spiritual healing. Open their eyes to see their need for a Savior. Soften their hearts to receive the truth of the Gospel. Draw them to Yourself, Lord, that they may repent and believe in Jesus Christ. Do not let them face eternity without You. Surround them with Your presence, and let them know that You are near.
Father, we also ask for wisdom and comfort for this one as they walk this difficult path. Give them the words to speak, the strength to endure, and the faith to trust You in all things. Remind them that You are their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Let them rest in the assurance that You are working all things together for their good and Your glory (Romans 8:28).
We pray all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
Finally, we encourage you to meditate on God’s Word daily. Let His truth wash over your fears and anxieties. Psalm 23 reminds us that even when we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we need not fear, for He is with us. Cling to Him, dear one. He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). And as you pray for your loved ones, do so with the confidence that God hears you and that His will is perfect. Keep sharing the Gospel with them, not just in words, but in love and deed. Trust that the Lord is at work, even when you cannot see it.
