For When You Feel Numb, Dry, or Far Away
(In the Name of Yeshua HaMashiach)
Abba Yehovah,
I come before You not in pretense, but in truth. You know when I rise and when I fall. You know when my heart is burning—and when it feels like dust.
Lift
Right now, I feel disconnected. Distant. Numb. But I refuse to stay in this valley of dryness. I lift my voice to You—not because I feel You, but because I choose You.
Stand
Your Word says You are near to the brokenhearted and save the crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). So I stand on Your Word, not my emotions. I rebuke every lie that tells me You’ve left me. I silence every whisper that says You’re done with me.
Command
In the name of Yeshua, I command every spirit of apathy, heaviness, slumber, and discouragement to leave me now. You have no authority in this vessel. I am a temple of the Ruach HaKodesh. I belong to Yehovah.
Bind
I bind the spirit of confusion and cast down every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of Elohim (2 Corinthians 10:5). I take every thought captive that says, “Why even pray?” or “He’s not listening.”
That is not Your voice, Abba. Your sheep hear Your voice, and I declare I am still Yours.
Revive
Revive me according to Your Word (Psalm 119:25). Breathe into these dry bones.
Restore my hunger. Renew my oil. Reignite my flame. Let the Ruach blow through every corner of my heart that has gone cold.
Cleanse
I repent for every door I’ve opened to distraction, bitterness, sin, or disappointment. Cleanse me. Wash me. Restore unto me the joy of my salvation (Psalm 51:12).
Praise
I put on the garment of praise to shake off this spirit of heaviness (Isaiah 61:3).
I prophesy over myself: I will not stay numb. I will not stay distant.
Yehovah is drawing me near with cords of lovingkindness. Yeshua is interceding for me at the right hand of Elohim.
The Ruach is stirring again. The dryness is breaking. The cloud is shifting.
I declare: My soul is waking up. My spirit is rising up. And Yehovah has never left me.
In Yeshua’s name,
Amen. Ken Yehi Ratzon.
