Alone,Depressed.Lost, No Job - cncman - 02-15-2010 10:12 AM
I lost my job 4 months ago. Ive been looking & applying but nothing yet. I am single & live by myself. I feel so alone. I am so sad & so depressed. I sleep a lot. I feel like I have no energy. I feel totally lost. I'm 51 & i dont know what i want to do. The bills keep coming & I'm watching my savings slowly disappear. I go to bed at night & i cant turn my brain off with all the worries i have. All i have the strength & energy to pray for is for God to "Help Me". Please pray to God for me to help strengthen me, to lift me from my depression & feeling of being totally lost, to help me find a good job that will bring me happiness and help me serve God and His people.

I'm 56 and lost my job 18 months ago. I also have depression but (thank God) am not alone in my life. I also feel lost most days and am trying to find a new way. I envy anybody who gets enough sleep, I have so many sources of body pain I am always short of sleep and tired making my depression worst. I can't even remember the last time I got a full night's sleep.
The point is: count your blessings, you actually do have some. God is still with you and me too, we have to work through this. Nobody else can do it for us.
I pray that God will guide you to a new life that will give you happiness.

When we don't know what to say brother, the Holy Spirit makes intersession for us. Just raise your hands and completely submit your will over to our Father. He knows what you have need of brother before you even ask Him. Sometimes we go through things so that we can be humbled enough to give our lives over to his will and stop trying to fix it ourselves.
"Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all other things will be added unto you."
Brother, please read, Matthew 6:25-34 in your bible. If you do not have a bible, please get one. It is the word of God that will comfort you and give you the confidence that you will need to make it through any storm you will face in this world.
Father, please open doors for this dear soul that no man can close. Show Yourself to him in a mighty way, that he will be a witness of Your goodness to other.
I ask this in Jesus Holy name. Amen!

Prayer brings victory
Dear brother, we know a man in the bible named JOB, he lost everything and was left pauper with boils in his body, but he did something which changed his situation, Job 42:10 says-And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. Here is one of the key to restoration of what you have lost. Pray for others who are in the same situation. God will bless you abundantly. Because bible does not say us something which is just a story but everyword is yes and Amen in christ Jesus. Ps22:24 says-For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard. Hallelujah. May the Lord give you strength and grace to pray for others and pour in you the spirit of prayer.

Loving Father, lift this person out of depression. Reassure him of your love for him and that you are with him in his struggles. Lead him quickly to a new job that meets his needs. In the name of Jesus, according to your will, amen.
