Renewed strength

We lift you up before the throne of grace, dear brother or sister in Christ, knowing that the weight of past abuse and trauma can feel crushing at times. The enemy seeks to steal your joy, your peace, and your strength, but we stand in agreement with you, declaring that God’s power is made perfect in your weakness. The Lord does not leave you to carry this burden alone—He is your refuge, your healer, and your ever-present help in trouble.

The scriptures remind us, *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* (Psalm 34:18 WEB) You are not forgotten, and your pain is not invisible to the One who bore our sorrows. We also hold fast to the promise that *"those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint."* (Isaiah 40:31 WEB) This is not just a distant hope—it is your inheritance in Christ.

Yet we must also speak truth with love: the wounds of abuse and trauma can sometimes lead us to seek comfort in ways that do not honor God. If there are patterns of bitterness, unforgiveness, or coping mechanisms that dishonor Him—whether through substance, unhealthy relationships, or self-destructive habits—we urge you to surrender them fully to Christ. He alone can satisfy the deepest longings of your heart. *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest."* (Matthew 11:28 WEB) True healing begins when we stop running to other sources and run instead to the arms of our Savior.

We also encourage you to seek godly counsel—whether through a pastor, a biblical counselor, or a trusted Christian community. Isolation can amplify the enemy’s lies, but fellowship with believers who walk in truth can be a lifeline. *"Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective."* (James 5:16 WEB) You do not have to navigate this journey alone.

With hearts full of compassion and faith, we pray:

Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister, lifting up their pain, their exhaustion, and their cry for renewed strength. Lord, You see every tear, every memory that haunts them, and every moment they’ve felt overwhelmed. We ask that You would pour out Your healing balm upon their heart and mind. Break the chains of the past, Lord, and replace their ashes with Your beauty, their mourning with Your joy, and their despair with Your hope.

Father, we rebuke the spirit of fear, shame, and oppression that seeks to keep them bound. In the name of Jesus, we declare that no weapon formed against them will prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You will condemn. (Isaiah 54:17 WEB) We speak life over their weary soul—strength for today, courage for tomorrow, and faith to believe that You are working all things together for their good.

Lord, if there are areas where they have turned to the world for comfort instead of You, reveal those places with Your gentle conviction. Give them the grace to repent, to lay those burdens down at the foot of the cross, and to receive Your forgiveness and restoration. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in the fullness of Your peace and purpose.

We ask that You surround them with believers who will speak truth in love, who will pray with them, and who will remind them of Your promises when the enemy whispers lies. Give them wisdom to seek godly counsel and the humility to receive it. And Father, as they wait on You, renew their strength indeed. Let them soar on wings like eagles, run without growing weary, and walk without fainting.

Above all, Lord, draw them closer to You. May they know the depth of Your love, the power of Your resurrection, and the hope of Your calling. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the name above every name, the One who conquered sin and death so that we might have life abundantly. Amen.

Hold fast to this truth, dear one: *"But we have this treasure in clay vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God, and not from ourselves. 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 4:7-10 WEB) Your struggles do not define you—Christ in you does. Keep pressing into Him, and watch how He turns your pain into a testimony of His faithfulness.
 
We're here with you, dear one, standing in the gap and lifting you up before our heavenly Father. We know the weight of past abuse and trauma can be overwhelming, but remember, you're not alone. God sees you, He knows your pain, and He's walking every step of this journey with you.

We claim the promise in Isaiah 40:31, "those who wait for the Lord will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not be weary, they will walk and not faint." We declare this over your life today. God is renewing your strength, giving you wings to soar above your circumstances, and filling you with endurance to keep going.

Let's also remember Psalm 34:18, "The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." He's close to you, He's near, and He's saving you, healing you, and restoring you.

As you trust in Him, we pray that God would reveal any areas where you might be seeking comfort in things that don't honor Him. Give those burdens to Him, and receive His forgiveness and restoration. He's got you, and He's working all things together for your good.

We're also here to encourage you to reach out to a trusted friend, pastor, or counselor. Fellowship with believers can be a lifeline in these times. You don't have to navigate this alone.

Let's keep holding onto the truth that our struggles don't define us - Christ in us does. Keep pressing into Him, and watch how He turns your pain into a testimony of His faithfulness.

We're praying for you, and we're believing with you for strength, healing, and hope. Keep trusting, keep fighting, and keep holding on. You're not alone.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy.

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Matthew 6:33: But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
