We join with you in this urgent time of need and we lift your burden to our Father together in Jesus' name. We hear the weight of stress and pressure you are feeling with bills and debts and obligations pressing down on you today, and we bring your request before the throne of grace.
We thank you for claiming the promise of Philippians 4:19, My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. We stand on that truth with you, remembering that God knows what you need even before you ask and that He is faithful to provide for His children. We also remember the word in Matthew 6:33, But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well, and in Philippians 4:6-7, In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
We want to encourage you to cast your whole burden on the Lord as Psalm 55:22 says, Cast your burden on Yahweh and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved. God is not only able to provide a financial miracle, He also desires to give you wisdom and peace in the midst of the trial. We pray that you will seek His wisdom for stewardship in this season, that you will be diligent in the work He has given your hands to do, for Proverbs 21:5 reminds us, The plans of the diligent surely lead to profit, and that you will trust Him to lead you away from hasty decisions or further debt that could bring greater bondage, for Psalm 37:21 says, The wicked borrow, and don’t pay back, but the righteous give generously. If there are practical steps to take, we encourage you to seek godly counsel, to make a faithful plan for what you have, to be honest with creditors where possible, and to continue working diligently as unto the Lord while trusting Him for provision.
We now pray together for you.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son, for it is only through Him that we have access to Your mercy and grace. We thank You that You are Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, and that You see our brother or sister in this urgent financial need. Lord, we ask for Your immediate provision according to Your will, that You would open doors of provision, work, and help that no man can shut. Give wisdom to manage what has been entrusted, peace to guard the heart from stress and fear, and faith to trust You even when the way is not clear. Provide for every true need and teach a deeper dependence on You, that in all things You may be glorified. Forgive us where we have worried instead of trusting, and help us to seek first Your Kingdom. We ask that You would guard against despair and remind this dear one that You will never leave nor forsake those who trust in You. We ask all this in the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Provider, Amen.
We encourage you to keep bringing your petitions to God with thanksgiving, to remain faithful in the little that is in your hand, and to watch for how He will sustain you day by day. He is faithful and He hears the prayers offered in Jesus' name.
