Prayer For Depression and Continued Prayer For My Ex

[Liz.M2022]

I'm asking for prayers for my ex. He is still drowning in depression and work stress. All he does is sleeps and works and doesn't socialize much anymore. I haven't heard from him in a month and I think that's best for both of our healing. I'm still praying for his healing and recovery and that he will fully and completely turn his struggles over to the Lord and find healing, peace, and clarity. I'm also asking for prayers for myself as I'm drowning in my own depression. I know the Bible says the Lord is near to the brokenhearted, but I feel all alone in this season of grief. I'm not only grieving my ex, but I'm also still grieving my dad who I lost last year. Life has been a bit struggle for me recently and I guess maybe God is testing my faith, but I feel very weak and in the lowest place in my life. I'm asking for prayers for my healing as well. Thank you all so much for your prayers during this hard time and God bless.

We lift both you and your ex before the throne of grace, asking the Lord to meet you in your deepest struggles. The weight of depression and grief is heavy, and we stand with you in prayer, believing that God hears the cries of the brokenhearted. The Word tells us in Psalm 34:18, "The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." Even when you feel alone, He is there, drawing near to you in your pain.

For your ex, we pray that the Lord would break through the darkness of depression and work stress. May the Holy Spirit stir within him a hunger for healing and restoration, that he would turn fully to God and find the peace that surpasses all understanding. We declare over him the truth of Psalm 147:3, "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds." Father, we ask that You would lift the burden from his shoulders and replace his weariness with Your strength.

For you, dear sister, we pray that the Lord would comfort you in your grief, both for the loss of your father and the season of separation from your ex. Grief is not a sign of weak faith but an opportunity for God to meet you in your sorrow. We hold fast to the promise in Matthew 5:4, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." May the Holy Spirit fill the empty places in your heart with His peace and presence. We also ask that God would strengthen your faith, even when it feels tested. Remember, He is not testing you to break you but to refine you, as gold is refined in the fire (1 Peter 1:7). You are not alone, even when it feels that way.

We must also gently address the past relationship with your ex. While it is loving to pray for his healing, it is important to surrender him fully to God’s care. Lingering emotional attachments can hinder your own healing, and we encourage you to seek God’s will for your future. If you are not already doing so, we urge you to guard your heart (Proverbs 4:23) and trust God to write the next chapter of your life according to His perfect plan. The Lord has a purpose for you beyond this season of pain, and we pray that He would reveal it to you in His timing.

We rebuke the spirit of depression and grief that seeks to overwhelm you both. In the name of Jesus, we declare freedom from despair and restoration of joy. The enemy wants to isolate you, but God calls you into community, lean on fellow believers, share your burdens, and let others pray with you. Galatians 6:2 reminds us, "Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ."

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, the only name by which we can be saved and find true healing. We ask that You would pour out Your mercy and grace upon both of these precious souls. Lift the weight of depression from them, Lord, and replace it with Your peace. Comfort them in their grief, and remind them that You are close to the brokenhearted. Strengthen their faith, even when it feels weak, and help them to trust in Your unfailing love. We ask that You would guide them into the fullness of life You have planned for them, free from the chains of the past. May they experience Your presence in tangible ways, knowing that You are working all things together for their good. We pray this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Healer. Amen.

We hear the weight you’re carrying right now, grieving your dad, grieving the loss of what you hoped for with your ex, and fighting your own depression all at once. That is a lot for any heart to hold, and it’s no wonder you feel alone and weak. You mentioned feeling like God is testing your faith, but sometimes we simply live in a broken world where losses pile up, and God weeps with us. He doesn’t always test; He often carries.

One thing that can sneak up on anyone in deep grief is isolation. When everything feels heavy, it’s tempting to pull away from people and even from church. Yet this is when we most need the steady presence of others who can sit with us, pray for us, and remind us we’re not forgotten. It doesn’t have to be big, maybe just giving yourself permission to sit in a worship service this week, even if you don’t feel like singing, can slowly lift the weight of loneliness. We’ve seen how simply being with God’s people can be a quiet anchor.

Since you mentioned drowning in depression, please consider also talking with a doctor or a Christian counselor. Depression can go deeper than a spiritual struggle; sometimes our bodies and minds need extra care, and there’s no shame in reaching for that. God often heals through the hands of others.

We’ll keep praying for your ex, too, that he’d find his way out of the fog and turn his struggles toward the Lord.

Lord Jesus, wrap Your arms around this woman. She feels so alone, yet You are close. Comfort her in her grief for her dad, steady her heart as she lets go, and lift the heavy weight she carries. Give her courage to take one small step toward help and healing. Draw her ex to You, ease his burdens, and bring them both Your peace. In Your name, amen.

[Spurgeon]

When grief piles upon grief, it is easy to feel that you have been put aside in a dark corner where even the light of heaven cannot find you. You are mourning a father you loved, and you are mourning the man you hoped might walk beside you through life. Now depression has settled over your spirit like a thick fog, and the silence from your ex feels like a locked door. In such a season, the soul grows faint, and you begin to imagine that you are utterly alone. But your sorrow is not hidden from the Lord Jesus, for He knows what it is to walk a solitary path.

Think of Him in the garden, when sleep pressed down the eyes of His nearest friends and His anguish went up without a single human witness. He was alone when they seized Him, alone when false voices hissed their accusations, and alone in the deep spiritual darkness of the cross. He has gone before you into the solitary place, and therefore He can meet you in your own. You are not abandoned, for the One who endured the forsakenness of the cross now stands beside you in the shadows. He keeps company with the brokenhearted because He knows that country perfectly.

You say you feel weak and at your lowest place. That is, strangely, a hopeful confession. Our Lord never appears more glorious than in the eyes of those who are brought low. When the paralysis of soul has so gripped you that you cannot stir hand or foot toward heaven, Christ enters the house where the fever of sorrow rages, and His presence turns it into a palace. He does not stand at a distance, waiting for you to climb out of the pit. He comes down into it. There is a Tree of Life growing on both sides of the river for you, its leaves are for healing, and they are near enough for a trembling hand to reach. He does not require you to be strong before He acts. The power of the Lord is present to heal you now, just where you lie.

You are praying for your ex, even while your own heart is so heavy. That is a Christlike love, a love that works by faith when feeling has fled. You may entrust him to the Great Physician with confidence, for Jesus knows the paralyzed places of his soul even better than you do. And as for you, dear heart, the first word Christ speaks to a soul laid low is not a demand but a gift: "Your sins are forgiven you." Then comes the healing. The forgiveness of your sins is a finished certainty sealed at the cross, and the healing of your spirit will follow as surely as the morning follows the night. You are not being tested in the sense of being abandoned; you are being drawn deeper into the fellowship of Him who was acquainted with grief.

In your loneliness, let this steady you: the Good Shepherd does not drive His sheep, but He goes before them. The silence you face is not an empty void, it is a silence in which He is listening with you, and His heart is tenderer toward you than any human love. When you cannot frame a word, the Holy Spirit intercedes with groanings that cannot be uttered. Even your sighs are understood. The loving Father knows how to send a love letter in a black-edged envelope, and the end of this sorrow will be joy that cannot be weighed.

Let us pray.

Lord Jesus, You who were a Man of Sorrows and are now the risen Healer of every wounded spirit, look with tender mercy upon this dear soul. She is bent low with grief for her father and for the one she still prays for, and her own heart is faint within her. Draw very near, Good Physician. Apply the healing leaves of Your presence to every raw and bleeding place. When the enemy whispers that she is alone, speak the truth that nothing can separate her from Your love. Take her by the hand in the darkness, for a child feels safest when her Father’s grip is sure. Breathe peace upon her mind, lift the crushing weight of depression, and give her sleep in the night seasons. And for the man she lifts before You, work mightily in his life, bringing him to the place where he will cast all his burdens upon You. Restore what is broken in Your own time and way. Keep this dear one steady in faith until the day breaks and the shadows flee away. In Your strong and gentle name, Amen.

We want to thank you for the privilege of standing with you in prayer during this deeply painful season. It is clear that your heart is carrying so much—grief for your father, sorrow over the distance from your ex, and the weight of your own depression. We have lifted each of these burdens before the Lord, asking Him to draw near to you as He promises in His Word, to comfort you in ways only He can, and to bring healing to both you and your ex.

If the Lord has already moved in your situation—whether through moments of unexpected peace, renewed strength, or even small glimpses of hope—we would be so encouraged to hear about it. Your praise report could be a blessing to others walking a similar path. If, however, you still feel overwhelmed and alone, please know that we are here to continue praying. You are not forgotten, and your request is still before the throne of grace. We will keep standing in faith with you, believing that God is working even when we cannot see it.

May the Lord surround you with His presence, remind you of His love, and lift you from this valley in His perfect timing. We pray for breakthrough, for restoration, and for the peace that surpasses understanding to guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.
