We hear the deep pain and despair in your words, and our hearts ache with you. The loss of your belongings, the betrayal from your son, and the feeling of being abandoned—even by God—are heavy burdens to carry. But we want you to know that you are not nothing. You are a child of the Most High God, created in His image, and He loves you more than you can comprehend. The enemy wants you to believe the lies that you are worthless, that God has turned His back on you, and that your suffering has no purpose. But we stand in the gap for you, declaring that these are lies straight from the pit of hell.
First, we must address the name of Jesus. It is only through Him that we have access to the Father. There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so. Confess your sins, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6), and it is only through Him that we can find true peace, hope, and restoration.
Now, let us rebuke the spirit of despair and hopelessness that has taken hold of you. The Bible tells us that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). The enemy wants you to believe that you are defeated, but we declare that you are more than a conqueror through Christ who loves you (Romans 8:37). We rebuke the lies that you are nothing, that God has abandoned you, and that your life has no purpose. We command every spirit of depression, anxiety, and self-hatred to leave you now in the name of Jesus.
We also rebuke the ungodly words and actions of your son. The Bible is clear that children are to honor their parents (Exodus 20:12), and your son’s words are not only hurtful but sinful. We pray that God would convict his heart and bring him to repentance. We also pray for your protection from his verbal attacks and that God would give you the strength to set boundaries with him if necessary.
Regarding the loss of your storage units, we understand the deep pain of losing something you worked so hard for. But we want to remind you that your worth is not found in your possessions. Jesus tells us not to store up treasures on earth, where moths and rust destroy, but to store up treasures in heaven (Matthew 6:19-20). We pray that God would restore what was lost, whether through the facility’s regional manager or another means, but we also pray that your heart would be freed from the grip of material things. God sees your pain, and He is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18).
We also want to address the bitterness and anger you feel toward God. It is okay to be honest with Him about your struggles. The Psalms are full of cries from people who felt abandoned by God, yet they still turned to Him. We encourage you to pour out your heart to Him, just as David did in Psalm 13: "How long, Yahweh? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?" (Psalm 13:1). God can handle your questions, your anger, and your pain. He wants you to bring it all to Him.
We also rebuke the spirit of comparison that has made you feel like an outcast. The enemy wants you to look at others and feel less than, but we declare that you are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Your worth is not determined by your appearance, your possessions, or your circumstances. Your worth is found in Christ alone. We pray that God would open your eyes to see yourself as He sees you—a beloved child, chosen and precious in His sight.
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister who is hurting deeply. Lord, we ask that You would wrap Your arms around her and remind her that she is not alone. You are close to the brokenhearted, and You save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We ask that You would break the chains of despair and hopelessness that have bound her. Replace her sorrow with Your joy, her fear with Your peace, and her shame with Your love.
Lord, we pray for restoration. We ask that You would intervene in the situation with the storage units. If it is Your will, we pray that the regional manager would show mercy and allow her to reclaim what was lost. But even if that is not Your plan, we pray that You would restore what was taken in other ways—whether through provision, opportunities, or a fresh start. We trust that You are a God who restores (Joel 2:25).
We also pray for her son. Father, we ask that You would soften his heart and bring him to repentance for the way he has treated his mother. We pray that You would convict him of his sin and draw him to Yourself. We ask that You would protect our sister from his hurtful words and give her the strength to set boundaries if needed.
Lord, we rebuke the spirit of comparison and self-hatred that has made her feel like an outcast. We declare that she is fearfully and wonderfully made, and that her worth is found in You alone. Help her to see herself through Your eyes, as a beloved daughter, chosen and precious in Your sight.
Father, we ask that You would fill her with Your Holy Spirit and remind her of Your promises. Help her to trust in You even when she doesn’t understand Your ways. Give her the strength to keep going, one day at a time. And most of all, Lord, we pray that she would know how deeply You love her. That she would experience Your presence in a tangible way and know that she is never alone.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust that You are working all things together for her good (Romans 8:28), even when she can’t see it. We ask all of this in the powerful name of Jesus. Amen.
We want to encourage you to hold on to hope. The enemy wants you to believe that this is the end of your story, but God is not done with you yet. He has a plan and a purpose for your life, and He is working even in the midst of your pain. We encourage you to seek out a biblical, Christ-centered church where you can find community and support. Surround yourself with people who will speak life into you and remind you of God’s truth.
We also encourage you to spend time in God’s Word. Even if you don’t feel like it, open your Bible and ask God to speak to you. Start with the Psalms, where you will find raw, honest cries to God from people who felt just like you do now. Let their words be your words, and trust that God hears you.
Lastly, we want to remind you that your feelings are not the final say. Just because you feel worthless or abandoned does not mean it is true. God’s Word is the final authority, and it says that you are loved, chosen, and precious in His sight. Cling to that truth, even when your feelings tell you otherwise.
You are not alone, and you are not forgotten. God sees you, He loves you, and He is with you. Keep pressing into Him, and trust that He will lead you through this valley.
