What you really need is what Jesus said, God's Word, that is sharper than a double edged sword, and not a sermon.
Here;
The Parable of the Persistent Widow
Luke 18. 1-8
Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.
He said: "In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared about men.
And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, 'Grant me justice against my adversary.'
"For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, 'Even though I don't fear God or care about men,
Yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won't eventually wear me out with her coming!' "
And the Lord said, "Listen to what the unjust judge says.
And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?
I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?"

Right now, you are in need of a prayer conquest, which means that you conquer the thing that you are praying about. The bible says that the fervent effectual prayer of a righteous man availeth much. In order for you prayers to be fervent and effectual, you must repent of any wrong that you've done knowingly or not knowingly. And then, go to God with a sincere heart and be honest with him. Tell Him all about what is bothering you and explain to Him why you feel the way you feel. He already knows all about it, but He still wants to hear it from you. After doing this, pray and believe and receive in your heart that you will have what you say. DON'T DOUBT AND DON'T FEAR!!!! It takes faith to really believe what you say and what you pray. Therefore, don't entertain doubt, fear or any other thoughts or actions that are contrary to your prayer. You must let patience have its perfect work and know that God will manifest things in His timing, not yours. LOL.

3 Trust in the LORD and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Delight yourself in the LORD
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the LORD;
trust in him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret—it leads only to evil.
Psalm 37
