Prayer To Pray When I Can’t Pray | And My Heart Feels Empty

 

Prayer To Pray When I Can’t Pray | And My Heart Feels Empty


Prayer To Pray When I Can’t Pray | And My Heart Feels Empty



HaShem, my Father, 


I come before You today, and my heart feels heavy, weary, and empty. I confess that sometimes I cannot find the words to pray, my spirit feels dry, and my lips cannot express the longing of my soul. But I know, O Lord, that You are near to the brokenhearted, and You save those who are crushed in spirit. (Psalm 34:18)


HaShem, I ask You now to ignite in me the fire of Your Spirit. Stir my heart, open my lips, and give me the language of heaven to speak when I am silent. Let Your presence overwhelm the emptiness within me, so that even when I do not know what to pray, the Spirit intercedes for me with groanings too deep for words. (Romans 8:26, though not written by Paul, the principle echoes in Torah wisdom of intercession and supplication)


Father, I cover myself with the shield of Yeshua’s blood. Let that blood wash over my mind, my heart, and my spirit. Protect me from the enemy’s attempts to paralyze my prayer life, to steal my words, and to leave me feeling abandoned. As Yeshua intercedes for us before Your throne (Isaiah 53:12), let His righteousness be my covering, and let Your glory shine through my weak prayers.


HaShem, I remember Your Word in the Torah: “Call to Me, and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.” (Jeremiah 33:3) I take Your promise to heart. Even when my heart feels silent, teach me to call to You in spirit. Teach me to pray as Yeshua taught His followers, with trust, with faith, and with reverence: “But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” (Matthew 6:6)


Father, I feel weak. I feel empty. I feel incapable. But I know Your fire is mighty, and it can consume the dryness in my soul. Send Your fire, O HaShem, to purify my thoughts, ignite my desire for You, and bring forth prayers from the depths of my being that I cannot yet utter. As it is written, “He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.” (Malachi 3:2; also echoed in Matthew 3:11) Let that fire come upon me now, Father, and empower me to pray.


HaShem, I pray for Your Kingdom to expand through Yeshua. Let every prayer that rises from my lips, every sigh from my spirit, glorify Your Name. Let my prayers be a vessel for Your glory, even when they are few or feeble. Let Your light shine through the darkness of my struggle, and let Your Name be lifted high because even in my inability, You are able.


Father, I ask You to remove every barrier that stops me from praying. Remove fear, confusion, shame, and weariness. Replace them with Your peace, Your joy, and Your faithfulness. As Yeshua said, “Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28) I come now, Lord, laying down my exhaustion and my inability, and I trust You to carry my spirit to Your throne.


HaShem, plant in me the desire to pray continually. Teach me, as Your Word instructs, to “pray without ceasing” (1 Kings 8:22; also the principle in Luke 18:1), to lift my heart to You even when words fail, and to rely on Your Spirit to intercede on my behalf. Let my silence be filled with Your presence. Let my weakness be transformed by Your strength.


Father, I thank You that even in moments when I cannot pray, You are working in me. You hear the cries of my heart, even unspoken. You are moving in ways I cannot see. Let me trust Your timing and Your ways. Let my spirit be awakened, my heart be softened, and my lips be opened, so that I can pour out my soul to You in honesty and in truth.


HaShem, I claim the shield of Yeshua’s blood over my mind, my heart, my spirit, and my words. I ask for Your fire to burn away all obstacles that hinder me from drawing near to You. May Your Name be glorified through my prayers. May Your Kingdom come, O Lord, in my heart, in my home, in my life, and through my witness to others.


I declare, Father, that You are my Teacher, my Helper, my Sustainer, and my God. When I cannot pray, You intercede for me. When my heart is empty, You fill me. When my spirit is weak, Your Spirit strengthens me. I will not be silenced, O Lord, for Your fire burns within me.


I lift this prayer to You now, HaShem, with a heart willing to be taught, a spirit longing to pray, and a soul that desires Your glory. May my prayers, spoken and unspoken, honor You. May Your Kingdom be established through me, through my obedience, and through the life of Yeshua, my Messiah.


In the mighty Name of Yeshua, Amen.
