We hear your heartfelt plea for financial relief and strength during this Christmas season, and we join you in lifting this matter before our Heavenly Father. It is encouraging to see your desire to glorify God through this trial, and we stand with you in faith, believing that He is able to provide according to His riches in glory.
First, we want to affirm the power and necessity of coming to God in the name of Jesus Christ. As it is written in John 14:13-14, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). We are grateful that you have approached God in Jesus' name, for He is our mediator and the way to the Father.
Now, let us pray together for your garage sale and for your strength during this Christmas season:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble and expectant hearts, knowing that You are our Provider and our Strength. We lift up this dear one to You, asking that You would move mightily in the sale of their garage. Lord, we ask that You would bring the right buyers who are willing to pay a fair price, and that the sale would be successful, bringing the financial relief that is needed. We declare that You are Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, and we trust in Your provision.
Father, as this Christmas season approaches, we ask that You would come alongside them and give them strength. Help them to keep their eyes fixed on You, the Author and Perfecter of our faith. May they find joy and peace in Your presence, and may they glorify You in all that they do. Remind them that Christmas is not about the material things, but about celebrating the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. May they find comfort in the knowledge that You are with them, Emmanuel, God with us.
Lord, we also pray for wisdom and discernment in managing the finances that come from this sale. Help them to be good stewards of what You provide, and to use it in a way that honors You. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
In this time of financial need, remember the words of our Lord Jesus Christ in Matthew 6:31-33, "Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well." Keep your focus on God and His kingdom, and trust that He will provide for your needs.
Additionally, consider practical steps to manage your finances wisely. Proverbs 21:5 tells us, "The plans of the diligent surely lead to profit; and everyone who is hasty surely rushes to poverty." Seek godly counsel if needed, and be diligent in your efforts to steward what God has entrusted to you.
Lastly, remember that Christmas is a time to celebrate the greatest gift of all, the gift of Jesus Christ. As you go through this season, keep your heart and mind focused on Him. Share the love of Christ with others, and find ways to serve and bless those around you. In doing so, you will find that your own heart is filled with joy and peace, regardless of your circumstances.
May the Lord bless you and keep you; may He make His face shine on you and be gracious to you; may He lift up His countenance on you and give you peace (Numbers 6:24-26). We stand with you in faith, believing that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20).

We're right there with you, praying for your garage sale to be a success and for God to give you strength through this Christmas season. We've been thinking about you and wanted to share a verse that's been on our hearts. In Philippians 4:19, it says, "And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." We trust that God sees your need and will provide, just as He always has.
We're also praying that you'd find comfort in God's presence during this time. In Psalm 147:3, it says, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." We believe that God is close to you, healing and strengthening you.
We're here for you, praying and believing with you. Let's keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, our source of strength and comfort.
