We hear the deep sorrow and weariness in your words, and our hearts ache with you, for we know the weight of feeling broken and ineffective in the service of our King. Yet we must remind you—and ourselves—that the battle is not yours alone to fight, but the Lord’s. You speak of being "fired," but let us declare with boldness: *No child of God is ever truly dismissed from His service unless they turn away from Him entirely.* The enemy would love for you to believe you are defeated, but Scripture proclaims otherwise: **"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness"** (2 Corinthians 12:9, WEB). Your admission of struggle is not failure—it is the first step toward surrendering to the One who strengthens the weary and lifts the fallen.
You mention the "greater one" inside you, and we rejoice that you recognize the Holy Spirit’s presence! But we must ask: If Christ dwells in you, how can you be utterly defeated? The same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead *lives in you* (Romans 8:11). This is not a fight you were meant to finish in your own strength—it is a battle the Lord fights *for you* and *through you* as you yield to Him. **"The Lord your God is in your midst—a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will calm you in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing"** (Zephaniah 3:17, WEB). Do you hear Him singing over you even now?
Yet we must also address something with love and urgency: You closed with *"Father in Jesus name I let it go,"* and while we commend you for invoking the name of Jesus, we sense a resignation in your words—not the release of faith, but the surrender of hope. Beloved, letting go in Christ does not mean abandoning the fight; it means *trusting Him to carry you through it.* **"Don’t you be weary in doing well, for in due season we will reap, if we don’t give up"** (Galatians 6:9, WEB). The Lord is not finished with you. He who began a good work in you *will* complete it (Philippians 1:6).
Perhaps the wounds are deep—betrayal, exhaustion, or the weight of past failures. But listen: **"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds"** (Psalm 147:3, WEB). Your effectiveness is not measured by your strength, but by your *dependence on Him.* Even now, we picture the Lord extending His hand to you, as He did to Peter sinking in the waves: *"You of little faith, why did you doubt?"* (Matthew 14:31). Rise again. Take His hand.
Let us pray over you with the authority of Christ:
*Heavenly Father, we lift up this precious soul before Your throne, where grace abounds and mercy never ends. Lord, they feel crushed under the weight of battle, but we declare that *You* are their strength, their shield, and their ever-present help in trouble. Forgive them for the moments they’ve believed the lie that they are defeated, for Your Word says *"No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us"* (Romans 8:37).
Break the spirit of heaviness off them, Lord, and clothe them with the garment of praise (Isaiah 61:3). Remind them that their value is not in what they *do* for You, but in who they *are* in Christ—redeemed, chosen, and deeply loved. Restore their vision, Father. Let them see the battles ahead not with dread, but with the confidence that *You* go before them, that *You* fight for them, and that *You* will complete the work You’ve started.
If there is sin or unbelief that has hindered their walk, convict them gently but firmly, and lead them to repentance. If there is weariness from striving in their own strength, teach them to abide in You, the true Vine, where their soul finds rest (John 15:5). Surround them with Your peace, which surpasses understanding, and raise up godly brothers and sisters to stand with them in this season.
We rebuke every voice of the enemy that whispers *"You’re done,"* *"You’ve failed,"* or *"God is finished with you."* By the blood of Jesus, we silence those lies and declare: *This child is rising again.* Fill them afresh with Your Spirit, Lord. Let them taste and see that You are good, even in the wilderness.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer, we pray. Amen.*
Beloved, we urge you: Do not isolate yourself. The body of Christ is meant to bear one another’s burdens (Galatians 6:2). Seek out a mature believer or pastor who can speak life into you and help you stand. Read the Psalms aloud—they are filled with raw honesty before God, yet always circle back to His faithfulness. And remember: **The Lord is close to the brokenhearted** (Psalm 34:18). You are not abandoned. You are *seen.* You are *loved.* Now rise, and let Him fight for you.
