Prayer For Emotional Healing And Strength

Oh Lord, I feel that both my heart and my life has been shattered into a thousand pieces and I don't know what to do or which way to turn. I feel that I have no strength left and that everything in my life has become an utter failure. Have mercy on me I pray, according to Your great goodness and abundant grace.

Lord, I know that Your Word says that You will give strength to the weary and hope to the distressed and I feel both weak and in distress, and ask for Your help and strength.

Help me to wait on You, abide in You and rest in Your love, because I know that You have promised that those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength and rise up with the wings as eagles.

Thank You also, that You have promised to heal the broken-hearted and restore those that are hurting. Heal my shattered heart I pray, and restore to me the joy of my salvation. This I ask in Jesus' name,

I don't usually do this but when our memories are painful or tortured it's usually because of a familiar spirit; they follow families, they know all the secrets and all the thorns that stick in our brains. Pray this out loud and often as needed: copy it down

I the name Above all Names__I pray in Jesus Name that Every Familiar Spirit, Fear and Torment Spirits, be bound up by the Name of Jesus. I plead the blood of Jesus over my mind, heart and soul; I command all soul ties to be broken and wash me clean from lingering memories.

I ask my Father in heaven for an angel to stand guard over the 4 corners of my home and prevent wars in my mind, as I put my bookmark in Ephesians 6 and confront the invisible enemies against my mind.

The Holy Spirit is my Comforter and my Helper. I will hear only His voice. My sleep is blessed and I choose to rest in My Lord Jesus. Amen! Hallelujah to my King! My Savior, Jesus.

Virgie, I'm praying for you.

Hi Virgie , I'm sure you must know that you are never alone , God is with you and so is Jesus , all day every day , they know exactly how you are feeling and why you are feeling this way . My advice ? Pour your heart out to God through Christ your sinless redeemer . He is waiting to hear from you , He is waiting for you to talk to Him , honestly and openly , do not be afraid to tell Him honestly , how you feel , He wants your honesty . Have you been praying regularly and reading His Word regularly ? If not , get to it girl smiley face . As for your family , are they also Christians ? Did you bring them up to be independent people ? Do they think that you are very independent and strong ? Maybe that's why they don't reach out to you too much , you brought them up too well smiley face . Perhaps if you allowed them to see a more vulnerable side to you they would respond , let them know that you miss and love them and would like to see them a bit more , sometimes you have to let your guard down a little bit with people , it's risky I know , but it can be very much worth it in the end . Also , come on here and have a chat to us , much love to you in Christ .

Dear Virgie, first of all, when you are saved, God seals your savation--you cannot lose it. Ephesians 1:13 "In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise." Second, we do not walk by feelings or sight, but by faith. We all feel down sometimes, feel abandoned by God, feeling unworthy, but the Bible says in Hebrews 11:1, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." When you get to feeling the way you described in your prayer request, pray through it.
