I am having a very SERIOUS battle with depression that I can't seem to shake, I'm also struggling financially as well. The enemy seems to be hitting really hard in these 2 areas, along with attacks upon my son and daughter. Sometimes it seems the struggle will NEVER end and it takes just about all I have to simply go on some days, life has become so burdensome. I earnestly covet the prayers of all God's true warriors that the enemy will be defeated once and for all in these areas, and that myself and my family will walk in the complete overcoming victory the Lord has provided for us. I desperately need His restoration in my life right now, for I have definitely grown lukewarm and am very weary of these seemingly never ending battles...so much so, it's to the point that I can hardly even fight anymore, for myself or anyone else. I guess the best way I can explain it is I feel really 'beat up', like the life has just been sucked out of me. I'm also a widow and very alone in all of this which makes it all the more difficult. My strength and joy in the Lord, along with the passion for both God and life that I once possessed, seems to be so very far from me now.
I've known the Lord for many years, yet I'm so miserable and unhappy with my life, it's like everything has been stripped from me. If anyone has gone through a major 'wilderness experience' in their walk with the Lord they'll know exactly what I mean here.
Where does it all end? How much is one person called upon to endure?
And for HOW long?! I have never felt so alone in all my life! Please stand in the gap for me in prayer, I don't know how much longer I can endure all this heartache, and I really need the Lord's intervention. I'm overwhelmed, I can't seem to deal with anything very well, even little things now seem so big to me, I'm just sooooooooo tired, so hurt, so disappointed. I'm really not one to pour my heart out in public like this but I don't know what else to do anymore, nor do I know where to turn. I'm truly truly at wits end, and need as much prayer as I can possibly get right now. Thank you in advance for your compassion and understanding, and for standing in the gap for this one disillusioned wounded warrior. May God Bless you.

Father,
I know exactly what JML is going through. I have been battling depression myself. I can identify with her pain and her need for you. I ask you to break this depression off her. I ask you to pick her up and carry her through this valley. I ask you to strengthen her. I ask you to bring her up out of this fog. I ask you to show her she is not alone. Show her you have never left her or forsaken her. Give her a fresh annointing for the fight she must endure. Place her in the pillar of fire and place a thorny hedge of protection around her. Give her wisdom to deal with her children. Touch her where she is and let her feel your presence. Give her visions of you dancing with her and loving her as you have done with me. I ask you to show her you are there. Show her that she is your special child and that she is not fighting alone. In Jesus Name, AMen

LOrd, help JML overcome her depression. Let the love of the HOly Spirit flood her with calmness and peace. Let her know that You are there for her always. You won't give her more than she can handle.
In Jesus name I pray this amen.
