We come before the Lord with you in this time of deep weariness and sorrow, lifting your heart to the Father who sees your struggles and longs to carry your burdens. The weight of depression, marital strife, and burnout is heavy, but we are reminded in **Matthew 11:28-30** that Jesus says, *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."* You do not have to carry this alone—He is calling you to lay it all at His feet.
First, let us address the spiritual foundation of your request. We notice you did not invoke the name of Jesus in your plea, and we gently but urgently remind you that there is no other name under heaven by which we are saved or through which we can approach the throne of God. **Acts 4:12** declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* **John 14:6** reinforces this truth: *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* If you have not yet surrendered your life to Christ or are uncertain about your salvation, we implore you to do so now. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you *will* be saved (**Romans 10:9**). Without this foundation, every other struggle will feel insurmountable, for apart from Him, we can do nothing (**John 15:5**).
Now, let us speak to the specific battles you face. Depression is a real and heavy burden, but it is not one you must bear without hope. The Psalms are filled with the cries of those who felt overwhelmed, yet they consistently turned their eyes back to God. **Psalm 42:11** asks, *"Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him, the saving help of my countenance, and my God."* Even in the darkness, praise is an act of defiance against despair. We encourage you to fill your mind with Scripture, worship music, and the company of believers who can speak life into you. If your depression feels unmanageable, seeking godly counsel or medical help is not a lack of faith—it can be a step of wisdom (**Proverbs 11:14**).
Regarding your marriage, we must ask: Are you and your spouse both walking with the Lord? A marriage centered on Christ is the only one that can withstand the storms of life. **Ephesians 5:22-33** outlines the biblical roles of husbands and wives, emphasizing love, submission, and mutual respect *as unto the Lord*. If there is strife, we urge you to examine your own heart first (**Matthew 7:3-5**). Have you loved your spouse sacrificially, as Christ loved the church? Have you forgiven as you’ve been forgiven (**Colossians 3:13**)? If sin—whether bitterness, unforgiveness, or something else—has taken root, repent and ask God to soften both your hearts. Marriage is a covenant, not a contract, and God hates divorce (**Malachi 2:16**). If your spouse is not a believer, **1 Peter 3:1-2** encourages you to win them *"without a word"* by your godly conduct. Pray fervently for your marriage, fasting if led, and trust that God is able to restore what is broken (**Joel 2:25**).
As for your burnout at work, we are reminded that even Jesus withdrew to rest (**Mark 6:31**). You were not created to run endlessly on empty. **Exodus 20:8-10** commands a Sabbath rest—not as a suggestion, but as a necessity for your soul. Are you prioritizing time with God, or has work become an idol? **Matthew 6:33** tells us to *"seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness"* and trust that He will provide. If your workload is truly unsustainable, pray for wisdom on how to set boundaries or seek change. But first, surrender your anxiety to God (**1 Peter 5:7**), and ask Him to renew your strength (**Isaiah 40:31**).
Lastly, we must address the danger of isolation. **Hebrews 10:24-25** warns us not to neglect meeting together, as some are prone to do, but to encourage one another. Are you plugged into a Bible-believing church? Do you have brothers or sisters in Christ who can pray with you, hold you accountable, and speak truth into your life? If not, we strongly urge you to seek out fellowship. You were not meant to walk this path alone.
Now, let us pray over you:
*"Heavenly Father, we lift our brother/sister before You now, knowing that You are the God who sees and hears. Lord, we ask that You would meet them in this place of deep weariness and despair. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, reminding them that their hope is not in their circumstances but in You alone. Break the chains of depression and replace them with the garment of praise (**Isaiah 61:3**). Restore to them the joy of Your salvation (**Psalm 51:12**) and give them strength to face each day.
Father, we pray for their marriage. Soften hearts, heal wounds, and restore unity. Convict where there is sin, and grant repentance and forgiveness. Let this marriage be a testament to Your faithfulness, a covenant that reflects Christ’s love for the church. If there is division, Lord, be the Reconciler. If there is bitterness, replace it with love. If there is distance, draw them back to You and to one another.
We ask for wisdom and rest in their work. Help them to trust You as their Provider, not their own striving. Show them how to set godly boundaries and to find their identity in You, not in their productivity. Renew their mind and body, Lord, and give them clarity on how to move forward.
Most of all, Father, we pray that they would draw near to You. If they have not surrendered fully to Christ, convict their heart now. Let them know the depth of Your love and the power of Your resurrection. Fill them with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding (**Philippians 4:7**), and let them walk in the assurance that You are working all things for their good (**Romans 8:28**).
We rebuke the spirit of depression, burnout, and division in the mighty name of Jesus. We declare that no weapon formed against our brother/sister will prosper (**Isaiah 54:17**), and that You, Lord, are their strength and their song (**Exodus 15:2**). May they rise up on eagle’s wings, renewed and steadfast in You.
In the precious and powerful name of Jesus we pray, Amen."*
Beloved, cling to this truth: *"We are pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not to despair; pursued, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not destroyed; always carrying in the body the putting to death of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body"* (**2 Corinthians 4:8-10**). This season is not the end of your story—it is a chapter where God is refining you, drawing you closer to Himself. Hold fast to Him. He is faithful.

Dear friend, we're here with you in your weariness, feeling the weight of your depression, marital struggles, and burnout. We see you, and we want you to know that you're not alone. Jesus sees you too, and He's calling you to come to Him, to find rest in Him.
First, let's remind ourselves of the power in Jesus' name. There's no other name under heaven by which we can be saved or approach God. If you haven't yet surrendered your life to Christ, we urge you to do so now. Confess that Jesus is Lord, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved.
