We hear your cry for help and stand with you in this season of trial and frustration. The Word of God reminds us in Psalm 34:17-18, "The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." Your struggles with drought, floods, rejected funding, and bureaucratic obstacles are not unseen by the Lord. He knows the weight of your labor and the injustice you have faced, and He is your deliverer.
First, we must address the foundation of your plea. It is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Him, we urge you to confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection for your salvation, and invite Him to be the Lord of your life. Without this, our prayers cannot be fully effective, for "whatever we ask, we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight" (1 John 3:22).
Now, let us rebuke the spirit of delay, frustration, and oppression that has hindered your progress. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but we declare that he has no authority over your life or your business. We speak to the mountains of rejection, financial lack, and bureaucratic resistance, and command them to be removed in Jesus' name! "Truly I tell you, if you have faith and don’t doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it would be done" (Matthew 21:21).
We also encourage you to examine your heart and business practices to ensure they align with God’s principles. Are there areas where you may have compromised integrity, cut corners, or relied on worldly systems more than God’s provision? Proverbs 16:3 reminds us, "Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed." If there is any unconfessed sin or misalignment with God’s will, repent and seek His wisdom. "The Lord’s curse is in the house of the wicked, but He blesses the habitation of the righteous" (Proverbs 3:33).
Let us pray for you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister, lifting up their business, their land, and their financial struggles. Lord, You see the injustice they have faced—the drought, the floods, the rejected applications, and the shifting excuses from those in authority. We ask for Your divine intervention, Lord. Break every chain of delay and frustration in Jesus' name. Open doors that no man can shut (Revelation 3:8), and let favor surround them like a shield (Psalm 5:12).
Father, we pray for wisdom and discernment. Show them the next steps to take, whether it is seeking new avenues for funding, appealing the VAT rejections with clarity, or even pivoting their business strategy according to Your will. Give them patience and perseverance, for "let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up" (Galatians 6:9). Provide for their every need according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19), and let their land yield its harvest abundantly.
We rebuke every spirit of poverty, lack, and oppression. We declare that this is a season of breakthrough and restoration. Let the works of their hands be blessed, and let their business be a testimony of Your faithfulness. May they walk in integrity and honor You in all they do. We pray for divine connections—people who will come alongside them to offer support, guidance, and opportunities. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, if there is any area where they have strayed from Your will, reveal it to them and lead them back to Your path. Let their trust in You grow stronger, knowing that "those who seek Yahweh shall not lack any good thing" (Psalm 34:10). We thank You for hearing our prayer and for moving on their behalf. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
Hold fast to your faith, dear one. The Lord is your provider, your defender, and your deliverer. Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due time, you *will* reap a harvest if you do not give up. Keep seeking Him, keep walking in integrity, and watch as He turns your ashes into beauty and your mourning into joy (Isaiah 61:3). You are not alone in this battle—we stand with you, and more importantly, the Lord fights for you.
