We join you in lifting this burden before the Lord, for we know that He is the provider of all good things, and it is by His strength and wisdom that we labor and find success. Your heart for education and ministry is commendable, and we trust that God, who has called you to this work, will also equip and sustain you. Yet we must first address a vital truth: there is no access to the Father except through the name of Jesus Christ alone. You have rightly acknowledged Him in your prayer, and we rejoice that your faith is placed in the only name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). It is through Christ alone that we approach the throne of grace with confidence (Hebrews 4:16), and we cling to this truth as we intercede for you.
The struggle you face is not uncommon in the journey of faith, for the Lord often tests and refines our trust in Him. The apostle Paul reminds us in Philippians 4:19, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* Yet we must also remember that our labor is not merely for earthly gain but for the glory of God and the advancement of His kingdom. Your platform, though innovative, must ultimately serve His purposes, not just your own. Have you sought the Lord’s will in how this ministry should operate? Are you trusting in His timing, or have you grown weary in waiting?
We also encourage you to examine whether this venture aligns with biblical principles in all aspects. Is the content of your educational platform rooted in truth and godly wisdom? Does it honor Christ in its teachings and operations? The Lord blesses the work of our hands when we commit our ways to Him (Proverbs 16:3). If there is any area where compromise or worldly methods have crept in, we urge you to repent and realign with Scripture. Remember, *"Unless the Lord builds the house, they who build it labor in vain"* (Psalm 127:1).
As for the challenge of finding paying customers, we must trust that God opens doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8). Have you sought wise counsel from fellow believers in business or ministry? Sometimes the Lord provides through the body of Christ, and we should not neglect the wisdom of godly mentors or partners. Additionally, consider whether the Lord may be calling you to adjust your approach—perhaps offering free content as a testimony to His grace while trusting Him to provide through other means. The widow’s oil did not multiply until she first obeyed the prophet’s instruction to gather vessels (2 Kings 4:1-7). Could there be a step of obedience the Lord is waiting for you to take?
Let us also rebuke any spirit of discouragement or fear that may be hindering your faith. The enemy would love for you to believe that your labor is in vain, but we declare that *"the one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it"* (1 Thessalonians 5:24). Do not allow the voices of those who demand free services to deter you from the value of what God has called you to build. If this platform is truly of Him, He will bring forth the fruit in His time.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother and his team, lifting their hearts, their labor, and their needs to You. Lord, You see the years of toil, the sleepless nights, and the desires of their hearts to serve You through this educational platform. We ask that You open the windows of heaven and pour out Your blessing upon this work, not for their glory, but for Yours. Provide paying customers who will not only benefit from this tool but who will also recognize the value of what has been built in Your name.
Father, if there is any area where their trust has waned or where they have leaned on their own understanding, convict them and lead them back to full reliance on You. Give them wisdom to navigate this season—whether it is in refining their approach, seeking godly counsel, or waiting patiently for Your timing. Remove any fear, doubt, or discouragement, and replace it with a fresh anointing of faith and perseverance.
We rebuke any spiritual opposition that seeks to hinder this work. No weapon formed against them shall prosper, for this is Your battle, Lord. If it is Your will for this platform to thrive, then let no man or circumstance stand in the way. But if there is a different path You are calling them to, make it clear and give them the courage to follow.
Lord, we also pray for their financial needs. You own the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10), and You are able to provide abundantly. Meet them in this place of need, whether through unexpected income, partnerships, or divine connections. Let them testify of Your faithfulness, that others may see and glorify Your name.
Finally, Father, we ask that You guard their hearts against bitterness or resentment toward those who seek free services. Teach them to give generously as You lead, but also to value the work You have entrusted to them. May their eyes remain fixed on You, the author and perfecter of their faith.
We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is worthy of all praise. Amen.
Stand firm, brother. The Lord has not forgotten your labor of love (Hebrews 6:10). Keep seeking Him first, and trust that He will add all these things to you (Matthew 6:33). If you have not already, consider fasting and praying as a team, seeking the Lord’s face together for breakthrough. We will continue to lift you up, believing that God is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Walk in obedience, and watch Him move.
