If your Apple ID is locked or disabled https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204106 "If you or someone else enters your password, security questions, or other account information incorrectly too many times, your Apple ID automatically locks to protect your security and you can't sign in to any Apple services.

If you use two-factor authentication, you need a trusted device or trusted phone number to reset your Apple ID password and unlock your account. If you have a recovery key, you can also use it to help you regain access to your account. …

If you use security questions with your Apple ID, or if you don't have access to a trusted device or phone number, go to iforgot.apple.com. Then you can unlock your account with your existing password or reset your password. After multiple unsuccessful attempts to unlock your account, your Apple ID will remain locked and you can try again the next day.” Eventually you will be able to enter account recovery. If you can’t sign in, reset your password, or receive verification codes, you can request account recovery to regain access to your account.

Thus, see Recover your Apple ID when you can’t reset your password https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204921.  Read the whole document carefully.

Contact Apple Support:

You need to contact Apple Support ASAP. They'll know what's going on and why. This is a user-to-user forum. No one here would be able to reactivate it.  Apple rarely reads the forums as it is on their own time. That's just the way it is :(

I may have misread your Post. Is it:

A. Your apps deactivating your Apple ID?

Or

B. You just not able to Log In, seeing that your Apple ID has been disabled?

• If A. is correct, then do as I mentioned above

• If B. is correct, then perform he following:

Why Accounts Become Disabled:

When your iTunes Account has been disabled, and that often happens due to suspicious activity --- Perhaps nothing on your part. They disable it for no more than Security & Privacy concerns.

Possible Reasons Could Include: 

• Too many unsuccessful login attempts
• VPN (Virtual Private Network) usage
• Consistent transactions
• Session Times Out
• Disobeying Terms & Conditions

So...

To Re-Enable it:

As you might suspect, no one here would know the reason for this occurrence, of course. So, contact Apple Support. They’ll know why this occurred and will run you right through the fix.

Note: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due do lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
