God Help Me! | 12 Powerful Prayers To Flex The Mighty Arms Of God In Your Life

A Christian’s hope is found in Christ Jesus — the finisher of all our problems. Don’t just scream in anguish ‘God Help Me!’ But on your knees say these prayers. The Comforter is already at work.

You may spend a couple of hours asking why life could be unbearable. You don’t have all the answers and you can’t find all the answers; even Google can’t get you all the answers. God has it. Welcome to the right place if you are one of those screaming out “God help me!” with their last breath and hope.

I often say, there is no shame in asking for help. However, I don’t fancy relying on the help and strength of man. I can’t confide in mere mortals to help me. Here the scriptures say:

“Thus says the LORD: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart departs from the LORD” (Jeremiah 17:5).

Over the past few years, I have come to understand that many of our troubles or afflictions are rooted in the spiritual realm. Your human knowledge and strength would be powerless against all that you are going through.

God answers prayers so never give up if you can’t see Him at work. Understand the simple fact that God is not a genie but Supreme over all powers, knowledge and understanding.

Look, I have seen and known how the spirit of darkness wreck havoc on the lives of innocent people! Go ahead and pray against these ferocious creatures.

Honestly, we all have some demons to fight. If it is not about financial challenges, then it is about marital issues, health problems, job issues, unfruitful relationships, fears, death anxieties, etc.

As a Christian believer, you will surely cry out “God help me!” when things are falling apart. Thank God that you first believe in His power.

As you find yourself reading this post, I have a collection of prayers to use instead of just saying help me, God. I believe you have to spend some quality time communicating with Him.

In The Spirit – Pray For God’s Help

As I have already said in the early paragraphs, you have to touch the root of the problem and uproot it with the blood of Jesus through targeted prayers.

God help me with Bible verse

I believe you are already aware that our battle is not of flesh and blood but against spiritual forces. And here the Bible calls for spiritual exhortation for this warfare. I simply love this verse:

“With all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints” (Ephesians 6:18).

Once again, God knows His children are bombarded with many afflictions but He delivers them all( Psalms 34:19).

Help Me God Prayers

Here I present to you some helpful prayers to help you find answers to your problems while you scream with anguish “God help me!.”

Believing that God will provide takes you one step ahead of your healing and salvation.

“I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth” (Psalms 121:1-2).

1. When Things In Life Keep Going Wrong

Dear God, I feel that everything in my life is going wrong and the dreams that I had in the past just seem to have shattered. People have let me down and my health seems to be failing and life seems to be one long disappointment after another…

Give me Your strength I pray to carry on and help me to pick up the shattered pieces of my life and move on in Your strength – not regretting the past but rather learning from it. Lord I know that Your strength and power must have sustained me even when I did not realize it, for You have promised to be with me through every difficult situation… thank You for being there…

Help me Lord to trust You and to unburden all my sorrows and disappointment to You… help me to pour out my heart to You, just as the Psalmist did, for I know that You listen to the cries of Your children and that You alone are my help and strength…Lord I know in my heart that You alone are all I need… help me to rest on this fact.

Heavenly Father, my hope is in You alone as I face the many storms of life that constantly seem to be battering at my door, with increasing intensity.

Help me Lord to look to You and maintain that hope that I have in You, knowing that without You I am nothing, but with You at the helm of my life I have all I need to stand firm in the faith.

Lighting the candle of hope

Lord thank You that by Your grace I have been made a new creation in Christ and thank You for the promise of hope that is set before me in Him. Thank You that my hope was founded on You the moment I first believed – but forgive me Lord… for over the years I know I have drifted far away from You as I tried, in my own strength, to be the captain of my own life and negotiate through its little surges and swells by my own skill and cunning. Lord I ask Your forgiveness for being so careless with my relationship with You, for You alone deserve my praise and thanksgiving for You alone are the source of my life and the sphere of my hope – You are the faithful Shepherd of the sheep and the Rock upon Whom my hope is founded. Lord, I pray that as the intensity of life’s storms increase all around me, that I may cling ever closer to You, and rest all my hope upon You, for You alone are worthy, in Jesus name I pray,

Your power resonates and I await your victory

My heart is ready to receive your blessings

With you there is victory and I trust you

Help me God overcome death anxiety

God of mercy and love

we put in your loving hands

the soul of (name of person)

that you have called from this life into your presence

In this life, you showed him your great love

and now that he’s free of all the worries

grant him safe passage through the gates of death

and enjoy the light and eternal peace

Having finished his earthly life, receive him in paradise

where there will be no more sadness or pain

only happiness and joy

Amen!

In Summation

God delights in helping us overcome all our challenges. As Christians, we must make prayers and fasting our weapons. But there is one thing we must bear in mind while we scream out God help me in prayers.

God doesn’t like inactivity. I mean, sometimes we have to take the right steps in preparation for God’s help. For example, someone praying for a job shouldn’t stay ideal.

Make some effort in search of the job and God will see you through; your application letter and interview would be highly favored in Jesus’s name!
