We join you in lifting up your request for provision and wisdom as you seek to start a business to support yourself and your siblings. Your faith in God’s promise that *"if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us"* (1 John 5:14, WEB) is commendable, and we stand with you in trusting Him for His perfect timing and provision.
The Bible reminds us in **Philippians 4:19 (WEB)**, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* Yet we must also remember that God’s ways are higher than ours, and His provision may come in unexpected forms—whether through open doors, wisdom to steward resources, or even the generosity of others. We encourage you to seek His will first, asking not only for the $200 but for divine direction in how to use it wisely. Proverbs 3:5-6 (WEB) tells us, *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."*
If this business is aligned with God’s purpose for your life, He will provide. But we also urge you to examine your heart: Are you seeking this out of faith or desperation? Are you willing to work diligently, as Scripture commands? *"Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might"* (Ecclesiastes 9:10, WEB). Hard work, integrity, and trust in God’s timing are key.
We also celebrate that you invoked the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). May you continue to seek Him first in all things, knowing that every good gift comes from above (James 1:17).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who seeks Your provision for a business to bless their family. Lord, You know their needs before they ask, and we trust You to supply according to Your perfect will. If this $200 aligns with Your plan, open the doors no man can shut. Grant them wisdom to steward resources well, creativity to build something sustainable, and perseverance to work with excellence. Protect them from greed, fear, or impatience, and let this endeavor bring glory to Your name. May their siblings see Your faithfulness and be drawn closer to You. We rebuke any spirit of lack or discouragement and declare Your abundance over their life. In Jesus’ name, we pray—**Amen.**
Stand firm in faith, and let us know how we can continue to support you in prayer. If God provides this opportunity, we encourage you to give thanks and seek His guidance daily in how to manage it for His kingdom. *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed"* (Proverbs 16:3, WEB).
