We come before the Lord with you in this time of deep need, lifting up your burdens and trusting in His provision, for He has promised to never leave nor forsake His children. Your cry for help has been heard, and we stand with you in faith, knowing that our God is a God of miracles, who owns the cattle on a thousand hills and provides for the needs of His people.
The weight of financial responsibility you carry is heavy, and the lack of support from those who should share the load must feel crushing. Yet we are reminded in **Philippians 4:19**, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* This is not a hollow promise—it is the unshakable truth of a Father who cares for His own. He sees your labor, your sleepless nights, and the sacrifices you make for your family and even for those you are helping without pay. **Hebrews 6:10** assures us, *"For God is not unrighteous, so as to forget your work and the love which you showed toward his name, in that you served the saints, and still do serve them."*
We also recognize the weariness in your heart—the longing to leave a place of struggle, the unpaid salaries, the looming deadlines, and the silence of those who should stand with you. In these moments, it is easy to feel abandoned, but **Psalm 37:25** declares, *"I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread."* The Lord is your Provider, *Jehovah Jireh*, and He will make a way where there seems to be no way. Even when others fail you, He remains faithful.
Yet we must also address the matter of your unpaid labor and the responsibilities others are neglecting. While it is noble to help those in need, it is not biblically sound to enable laziness or irresponsibility, especially when it places an undue burden on you and your family. **2 Thessalonians 3:10** is clear: *"For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: ‘If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat.’"* If those you are helping are able-bodied and capable of contributing, it may be time to have difficult but necessary conversations about shared responsibility. You are not called to carry what others refuse to lift. **Galatians 6:2** tells us to *"Bear one another’s burdens,"* but this does not mean bearing them alone or indefinitely. Wisdom and boundaries are needed, and we pray the Lord grants you both as you navigate this.
As for the deadline for your electricity bill and the purchase of your tickets, we claim **Matthew 6:31-33** over you: *"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."* Your focus must remain on trusting Him, not on the storm around you. He who fed the five thousand with five loaves and two fish can certainly provide for your electricity bill and your travel plans. Stand firm in faith, and do not let fear dictate your steps.
We also lift up your husband as he continues to work, asking the Lord to strengthen his hands, protect his health, and grant him favor in all he does. May the Lord bless the work of his hands, as **Deuteronomy 28:12** promises: *"The Lord will open to you his good treasure in the sky, to give the rain of your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand."* May every effort he makes be fruitful, and may the Lord reward his diligence.
Finally, we pray for your inner peace—the peace that surpasses all understanding, as **Philippians 4:6-7** assures us: *"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."* The Lord does not want you to carry this anxiety. Cast it upon Him, for He cares for you (**1 Peter 5:7**).

**Our Prayer for You:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You today on behalf of Your child, who is weary, burdened, and in need of Your mighty hand. Lord, You see the financial struggles, the unpaid bills, the unmet needs, and the lack of support from those who should stand alongside them. You know the deadlines that loom and the desire to move forward in faith. We ask You, Lord, to intervene supernaturally. Provide the funds needed for the electricity bill, Lord—let no service be cut off, but let Your provision flow in ways that can only be attributed to You. Open the way for the purchase of these tickets, Lord, and make the path clear for this family to take the next step You have for them.
Father, we also ask for justice where there has been neglect. Stir the hearts of those who have failed to contribute, Lord. If they are able, convict them to take responsibility. If they are unwilling, give this family the wisdom and courage to set boundaries that honor You and protect their own household. Lord, You have called us to help others, but not to the detriment of our own families. Grant them discernment in this, we pray.
We lift up this husband and father, Lord. Strengthen him in his work. Let his labor not be in vain, but let it bear fruit that sustains his family. Bless the work of his hands, Lord, and let favor surround him like a shield. We also pray for rest—for true, refreshing rest that renews their bodies and spirits. Let sleep come easily, Lord, and let it be deep and restoring.
Most of all, Father, we ask for Your peace to flood their hearts. Replace anxiety with trust, fear with faith, and weariness with hope. Remind them that You are their Provider, their Protector, and their Strength. Let them feel Your presence in tangible ways this week, Lord. Surround them with Your favor as with a shield.
We rebuke the spirit of lack, fear, and oppression in the name of Jesus. No weapon formed against this family shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment shall be condemned (**Isaiah 54:17**). Lord, let Your will be done in their lives, and let Your name be glorified through their testimony of Your faithfulness.
In the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
