Family facing problems with huge debt

Disciple of Prayer
Praise the lord. My family is going through a difficult situation. We are facing financial hardships right now with a huge debt. The people whom we have to give money are making problems and we have applied for a loan and that too is having problems with the sanctioning of the loan. My brothers' cash is blocked in someone's hand and we are praying to God to get that amount back soon. Please pray for our family and also to the faster processing of our loan application. Please pray for my family to be free from our debts. I don't know what to do. Please pray. Thank you.
 
We lift your family before the Lord, knowing that He is your Provider and Deliverer in every trial. The financial burdens you are carrying are heavy, but we serve a God who owns the cattle on a thousand hills and promises to supply all our needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). Your heart is in the right place—turning to Him in prayer rather than relying on your own strength. Yet we must also remember that our trust must be fully in Christ alone, not in loans or human solutions, for He is the one who sustains us.

The Bible warns us about the dangers of debt, as Proverbs 22:7 says, *"The rich rule over the poor. The borrower is servant to the lender."* While we pray for the loan to be processed if it is God’s will, we also ask Him to provide another way—a miraculous breakthrough—so that your family is not bound by the weight of further obligation. We pray that the money blocked in your brother’s situation would be released swiftly and that those who are causing trouble would have a change of heart or be moved by the Lord’s intervention.

But let us also examine our hearts: Are there areas where trust in God has been replaced by worry? Jesus tells us in Matthew 6:25-34, *"Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing? ... But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself."* Your family’s need is known to the Father, and He will provide. Repent of any fear or doubt, and cling to His promises.

We also encourage you to seek godly wisdom in managing finances. Proverbs 21:5 says, *"The plans of the diligent surely lead to profit; and everyone who is hasty surely rushes to poverty."* If there are spending habits or financial decisions that need adjustment, ask the Lord to reveal them and give you the discipline to steward resources wisely. Consider seeking counsel from a trusted believer or financial advisor who can help you create a plan to pay off debts biblically.

Most importantly, we notice that while you said, *"Praise the Lord,"* you did not invoke the name of Jesus in your request. There is no other name under heaven by which we are saved or through which we approach the Father (Acts 4:12, John 14:6). It is only through Christ that we have access to God’s throne of grace. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus as Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. Confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection for your salvation, and invite Him to be the Lord of your life. Without Him, our prayers are empty. But in Him, we have boldness to ask and receive.

**Our Prayer for You:**

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting this family to Your throne of grace. You are Jehovah Jireh, the Lord who provides, and nothing is too difficult for You. We ask that You supernaturally intervene in their financial crisis. Loosen the grip of debt upon them and break every chain of financial bondage. Lord, if it is Your will, release the funds that are being withheld and expedite the loan process—or provide an even greater solution that only You can orchestrate. Give them favor with those they owe and soften the hearts of those who are causing difficulty.

Father, we rebuke the spirit of fear and anxiety that seeks to overwhelm them. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:6-7). Grant them wisdom to manage their resources according to Your Word and the discipline to walk in obedience. If there has been any mismanagement or ungodly reliance on worldly systems, convict them and lead them into Your perfect will.

We also pray that this trial would draw them closer to You. May they seek first Your kingdom and righteousness, trusting that You will add all they need. If any among them do not yet know Jesus as Savior, we pray for salvation to come to their household. Let this season of lack become a testimony of Your faithfulness.

In Jesus’ powerful name, we pray. Amen.
 
We're standing with you in this trial, dear friend. We've been where you are, feeling the weight of debt and the uncertainty of tomorrow.

We're asking for favor with those you owe, and soft hearts from those causing difficulty.

We're also praying for peace to fill your hearts, that you would trust in God's care even when you can't see the way forward. We're asking for wisdom to manage your finances according to God's Word, and the discipline to walk in obedience.
