We hear the deep cry of your heart, and we join you in lifting this before the Lord Jesus Christ, who alone is our refuge, strength, and deliverer. You have invoked the name of Jesus, and we rejoice that you are turning to Him, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved. *"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!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). It is through faith in Christ alone that we find true peace, healing, and freedom from fear.
First, let us address the distress you feel regarding the prayer tower, the mural, and the ominous signs you mentioned. The Bible warns us against placing our trust in man-made symbols, omens, or idols, for these things have no power over those who are in Christ Jesus. *"Turn to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other. I have sworn by myself. The word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and will not return, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear."* (Isaiah 45:22-23, WEB). If there has been any involvement in practices or places that do not honor God, we ask the Lord to break every ungodly tie and stronghold in your life. You are a child of God, and no weapon formed against you shall prosper when you are hidden in Christ. *"No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me,” says Yahweh."* (Isaiah 54:17, WEB). We rebuke any fear or spiritual oppression tied to these past experiences, and we declare that the blood of Jesus covers you, cleanses you, and sets you free. *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* (1 John 1:9, WEB).
You also mentioned your struggles with PTSD, depression, and past drug addiction, as well as your fear of independence due to your vision disability. We want to remind you that God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. *"For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control."* (2 Timothy 1:7, WEB). While medications can be a tool God uses for healing, true and lasting peace comes from Him alone. We encourage you to seek godly counsel and medical help, but always remember that your ultimate hope is in Christ. *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest."* (Matthew 11:28, WEB). He is the Great Physician, and He longs to heal your heart, mind, and body. We pray that He will guide you to the right medical professionals and treatments, and that He will give you wisdom as you navigate your health. *"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him."* (James 1:5, WEB).
Your fear of moving to Japan and the challenges of academic and occupational competition are valid, but we urge you to trust in the Lord’s provision and timing. He has not forgotten you, and He goes before you. *"Yahweh is my shepherd: I shall lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me."* (Psalm 23:1-4, WEB). You are not alone in this journey. The Lord is with you, and He will equip you for every challenge. We pray that He will open doors for you in Japan, that He will provide godly friendships and community, and that He will give you the strength and confidence to thrive. *"I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me."* (Philippians 4:13, WEB).
We also want to address your desire for prosperity and success. While it is not wrong to pray for provision, we must always seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, trusting that He will add all things we need. *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* (Matthew 6:33, WEB). True prosperity is found in walking closely with the Lord, not in worldly success or material wealth. We pray that your heart will be aligned with His will, and that you will find your satisfaction in Him alone.
Lastly, we celebrate that you are reading the Bible in Japanese romanji English. The Word of God is living and active, and it will transform your life as you meditate on it day and night. *"Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path."* (Psalm 119:105, WEB). We encourage you to continue diving into Scripture, for it is your greatest weapon against fear, doubt, and the lies of the enemy.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother who is crying out to You for deliverance, healing, and provision. Lord, we thank You that You are a God who hears and answers prayer, and that You are near to the brokenhearted. We ask that You break every chain of fear, oppression, and bondage in his life—whether from past experiences, spiritual strongholds, or the lies of the enemy. Father, we rebuke every spirit of fear, anxiety, and doubt that has taken root in his heart, and we declare that You are his protector, provider, and healer.
Lord Jesus, we ask that You would heal his mind, body, and soul. Touch every area of his life that has been affected by trauma, addiction, and depression. Restore him completely, and fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Guide him to the right medical professionals and treatments, and give him wisdom as he seeks help for his health. We pray that You would also provide for his physical needs, including his vision, and that You would give him the confidence to live independently, knowing that You are his strength.
Father, we ask that You would go before him as he considers moving to Japan. Open the right doors for him, and close the ones that are not of You. Provide godly community, friendships, and opportunities for him to thrive. Give him favor in his academic and occupational pursuits, and help him to trust in Your provision rather than fearing competition or struggle. We pray that You would surround him with people who will encourage him in his faith and walk with You.
Lord, we also ask that You would align his desires with Your will. Help him to seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness, knowing that all things will be added to him as he walks in obedience to You. Give him a hunger for Your Word, and let it be a lamp to his feet and a light to his path. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, and let Your presence be his greatest comfort and joy.
We declare that he is more than a conqueror through Christ Jesus, and that no weapon formed against him shall prosper. We speak life, hope, and victory over his future, and we trust that You will complete the good work You have started in him. Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and love. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, to lean on Him in every step, and to trust that He is working all things together for your good. *"We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose."* (Romans 8:28, WEB). You are not alone—we are standing with you in prayer, and the Lord is walking beside you every step of the way. Stay rooted in His Word, and let His promises be your anchor in every storm. God bless you, and may His peace guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
