Financial Spiritual Battle on multiple fronts and my hope and my future in the balance.

[Trormaenath]

Dear Fellow Saints and Prayer Warriors.

Please Pray for me in regards to updates in my current situation.

Regarding my inheritance in my late father's home.
My brothers have colluded to accept a conditional offer from a buyer for 1.3 mill still well below the actual worth of my dad's home under normal conditions. However, it's only a conditional offer and if the Lord intervenes as I am Praying he will, it might not go through. This is the house that failed to attract any bids from buyers when it went to auction on the 14th of March. I attributed it to the ongoing War, the fuel price rise, and in Australia, an interest rate rise as well. I proposed that the property be taken off the market and rented out till the war ended and prices and demand recover, but my brothers who are unbelievers are guided by the Enemy acted against me and continued to force the sale even though prices are currently at the worst in the Australian market now. Allowing the offer to go through now will cost me 200 grand from the true value of my inheritance of my share; that's what the Enemy will steal from me if the offer succeeds. Pray that it will not succeed and Pray that the blindness to what is going on in the Australian real estate market will be revealed to my brothers and that they will act according to my advice.

At the same time, the Lord as shown me a few properties in QLD in a search last night that meet our criteria for a new home. So my Prayers to guide me to the right property seem to me to be met, the only issue is the price. All of them are way out of our reach even if my dad's house sells for the right price under normal circumstances. I got a feeling the Lord might be telling me to trust him in providing me directly and forget about my squabble with my brothers over my father's house. The Oz lotto draw tonight is 4 mill just right to purchase any one of the properties in Toowoomba the Lord brought to my attention. So I am banking he'll just open the door for me tonight; he's done everything else, my son even went to the town last weekend and scouted out the place and sent me photos; it seems that he likes the place as it's very much like Ballarat just warmer. So all the groundwork has been laid very much like the Israelites when they were about to enter the promised land but unlike them whose spies brought back an unfavorable report and angered Moses and God, my Son brought me a favorable report so all God needs to do now is open the door for us. I'll buy a ticket today; Pray that the door will open tonight for us. You can also Pray that my inheritance will be protected from being stolen by the Enemy but at the same time maybe the Lord is saying to me, don't depend on it, depend on me, watch me open the door!! Pray that this will be so.

I also had another email from solicitors from a Christian College over a debt we owe to them. (past school fees for my kids' education that were being paid by installments, but some of them bounced as my wife wasn't putting the money I gave her to paying off the school instead using it to pay her other debts). We already contacted them after they threatened to sue us for the debt about a fortnight ago, which shocked me and my wife. After that, my wife submitted another repayment plan to the college promising to pay them $50 every week although I had told her she should offer to pay them more. They were supposed to have called off the debt collectors after that, but now I got another email from their lawyers, so it's another shock to me. They say we haven't paid the debt and are about to take legal action against me and Jen. This is even though Jen submitted to them the repayment plan more than a week ago. I tried to contact the person in charge of payments just now, but she's away until tomorrow; they said she'll contact me then. As for the solicitors, they said they just received an email from the college regarding our case from the college after they already sent us their email, so I'll see what happens now. Pray that our case will be taken off and Pray that the Lord will grant me the Provision tonight to completely pay off the debt; it's only 5700, come on Lord, to be sued by a Christian College for debt for bringing up our kids with Christ in their lives, but not being able to provide for us to pay them off is not only embarrassing but makes a joke of what the Lord stands for in us and the College to the world! If the Lord of the universe who owns the cattle on a thousand hills can't pay the bills for our kids' Christian education, it's going to be a joke to the world, and I am sure he doesn't want us to look that way.

I think the Spiritual battle is ramping up now. The Enemy is attacking on many fronts where he knows I am weakest in the area of my finances, my inheritance, and my resources and my hope for the future. But at the same time, I believe he's trying to make the Lord look bad especially with the issue of our Christian college debt from our kids' education (they have graduated and are no longer enrolled but the debt remains).

Pray that the Lord will take charge of this situation and not let the world make a mockery of his will and his ability to provide for his children.
Pray that the Lord will prevent my inheritance from being stolen by people who know not the Lord or hate him.
Pray that the Lord will open the doors for me to move to QLD tonight after he's already laid down all the groundwork and provided several suitable places for me to move to; all we need are the funds to purchase them and he can open the door tonight.
Pray that the Christian College will drop their legal action against us as we have already submitted a repayment plan to them and this action makes the whole situation make a mockery of the Lord all that he stands for to the world. Pray that the Lord will just provide me the funds to settle the debt of 5700 once and for all.
Pray that the Lord will come against the Enemy and STOP HIS ATTACKS on my finances, my inheritance, and my hope for the future.

I Pray all this for his glory in Jesus' name.

[Articles]

We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this situation that weighs so heavily upon you. The battles you face—financial, spiritual, and familial—are real, and we stand with you in prayer, believing that our God is greater than any scheme of the enemy. The Word reminds us in Ephesians 6:12, *"For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."* The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life abundantly (John 10:10). We rebuke every attack of the enemy in your life—over your finances, your inheritance, and your hope for the future—and command it to cease in the mighty name of Jesus.

First, we address the matter of your father’s home. It is clear that your brothers, being unbelievers, are not walking in the wisdom of the Lord, and their decisions are being influenced by worldly pressures rather than godly discernment. Proverbs 19:21 says, *"There are many plans in a man’s heart, but Yahweh’s counsel will prevail."* We pray that the conditional offer on the home would fall through, that your brothers’ eyes would be opened to the reality of the market, and that they would heed your counsel to wait until conditions improve. We declare that no weapon formed against your inheritance shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we ask the Lord to protect what rightfully belongs to you. However, we also hear the Lord’s whisper to you: *"Do not depend on it, depend on Me."* We pray that you would find your security not in the outcome of this sale, but in the Lord’s provision. He owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10), and He is more than able to provide for you in ways you cannot imagine.

We are concerned, however, by the mention of the Oz Lotto as a solution to your financial needs. While we understand the desperation you feel, we must remind you that gambling is not a godly means of provision. Proverbs 13:11 warns, *"Wealth gained by dishonesty will be diminished, but he who gathers by labor increases it."* The Lord does not promise to meet our needs through games of chance, but through faithfulness, hard work, and trust in Him. We encourage you to reject this path and instead seek the Lord’s face for His provision. He has already shown you properties in Queensland—trust that He will open the door in His timing and in His way. Philippians 4:19 assures us, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* We pray that you would rest in this promise and wait on the Lord’s perfect provision.

Regarding the debt to the Christian college, we are grieved that this situation has escalated to legal threats, especially when you have already submitted a repayment plan. We rebuke the spirit of accusation and legalism that seeks to bring shame upon you and your family. The Lord is not a God of shame, but of grace and mercy. We pray that the college would extend that same grace to you, recognizing that you are acting in good faith to repay what is owed. We ask the Lord to soften their hearts, to remove any legal action against you, and to provide the full amount needed to settle this debt. Psalm 37:21 says, *"The wicked borrow and don’t pay back, but the righteous give generously."* We declare that you are not wicked, but righteous in Christ, and we pray that the Lord would move mightily to resolve this situation. We also encourage you to examine how this debt arose—specifically, the mismanagement of funds meant for your children’s education. Proverbs 21:5 reminds us, *"The plans of the diligent lead surely to plenty, but those of everyone who is hasty, surely to poverty."* We pray for wisdom and accountability in your household finances moving forward, so that such situations may be avoided in the future.

The spiritual battle you are facing is intense, but we declare that the Lord is your shield and your defender. Psalm 91:4-6 says, *"He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day; nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that desolates at noonday."* We pray that you would find refuge in the Lord, that He would surround you with His peace, and that He would silence the lies of the enemy that seek to rob you of hope. The enemy wants to make the Lord look powerless, but we declare that our God is the King of kings and Lord of lords—nothing is too hard for Him (Jeremiah 32:17). We pray that He would move mightily in every area of your life, that His name would be glorified, and that the world would see His power at work in your circumstances.

We also want to gently address the foundation of your faith. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father (John 14:6), and there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your life fully to Jesus Christ, repenting of any sin and trusting in His finished work on the cross for your salvation. This is the first and most important step in standing firm against the enemy’s attacks. When we are rooted in Christ, no weapon formed against us can prosper (Isaiah 54:17).

Now, let us pray:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother who is under spiritual and financial attack. Lord, You see the battles he is facing—over his inheritance, his finances, and his hope for the future. We rebuke every scheme of the enemy in Jesus’ name and declare that no weapon formed against him shall prosper. Father, we ask that You would intervene in the sale of his father’s home. Let the conditional offer fall through, and open the eyes of his brothers to the truth of the market. Give them wisdom to wait until conditions improve, and protect our brother’s rightful inheritance.

Lord, we also pray for the properties You have shown him in Queensland. You have already gone before him, preparing the way, and we trust that You will open the door for him to move forward in Your timing. We reject the temptation to seek provision through gambling or worldly means, and we ask that You would provide for him in ways that glorify Your name. Give him patience and faith to wait on You, knowing that You are faithful to supply every need according to Your riches in glory.

Father, we lift up the debt to the Christian college. We ask that You would soften the hearts of those in charge, that they would extend grace and understanding rather than legal action. Provide the full amount needed to settle this debt, and remove any shame or embarrassment that the enemy seeks to bring upon him. We also pray for wisdom in managing finances moving forward, that there would be accountability and diligence in stewarding the resources You provide.

Lord, we declare that the enemy’s attacks will not prevail. You are the God who parts the Red Sea, who shuts the mouths of lions, and who raises the dead to life. You are more than able to turn this situation around for Your glory. We ask that You would silence the lies of the enemy, fill our brother with Your peace, and let Your name be magnified through his life. May the world see Your power at work and know that You are the one true God.

Finally, Lord, we pray that our brother would find his security and identity in You alone. May he rest in the knowledge that You are his Provider, his Defender, and his Hope. Strengthen his faith, deepen his trust in You, and let him experience Your goodness in every area of his life. We pray all of this in the powerful name of Jesus, Amen.

Dear friend,

I've been praying for you and the situation you're facing. Here's what I've been interceding about:

1. **Financial and Spiritual Battle**: Lord, I lift up this heavy burden you're carrying. I claim your promise in Matthew 11:28-29, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls." I pray that you would find rest and strength in Jesus today.

2. **Inheritance and Home Sale**: Father, I ask that you would intervene in the sale of your father's home. Expose the truth of the market to your brothers, and give them wisdom to wait until conditions improve. Protect your rightful inheritance and provide for your needs according to your riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19). I also pray that the Lord would open the door for you to move to Queensland as He has shown you, and provide the funds needed to purchase a suitable property.

3. **Debt to Christian College**: Lord, I lift up the debt to the Christian college. I ask that you would soften the hearts of those in charge, and that they would extend grace and understanding. Provide the full amount needed to settle this debt, and remove any legal action against you. I also pray for wisdom in managing finances moving forward, that there would be accountability and diligence in stewarding the resources the Lord provides.

4. **Trust and Provision**: Lord, I pray that you would find your security and identity in You alone. I claim your promise in Psalm 37:4, "Delight yourself also in the Lord, and he shall give you the desires of your heart." I trust that as you delight in Him, He will provide for all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

5. **Protection and Peace**: Lord, I ask that you would shield you from the enemy's attacks. I claim your promise in Psalm 91:4-6, "He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings shall you trust. His truth shall be your shield and buckler. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day; nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor of the destruction that wasteth at noonday." I pray that you would find refuge in the Lord, and that He would surround you with His peace.

I pray all these things in Jesus' mighty name, Amen.

Keep trusting in the Lord, and remember that He is always with you.

We are concerned, however, by the mention of the Oz Lotto as a solution to your financial needs.

I have no choice dear brothers and sisters. I don't have the amounts people in the Toowoomba area are asking for the properties the Lord showed me ! Even if I do get my inheritence share at the right Price that my fathers home is worth, about 6 to 7 hundred grand its not enough to meet the 1.5 to 2 mill they are asking for a house on a farm of 20 to 40 acres there. However I see it not as a game of chance but a key to the gate to allow to access to move to Toowoomba . My parents should have settled in QLD when properties were cheap back in the 1980's and we would have been there by now for at least 20 or 30 years . But I can't blame them now that they are gone so this is the only way I can gain that access now, its a lot harder now but unless the Lord can open a way outside of my thoughts then I see this as the key and you should Pray that he uses it as such, rather than be concerned. The Lord uses many ways to open difficult paths for his children even those not thought of or expected to be used we should leave room for him to use any and every way as a path to the solutions of issues we face.
