We rejoice with you in the goodness of our Lord, who has already opened doors for you through the side job and new business opportunities! Your gratitude is a beautiful testimony of a heart that recognizes God’s faithfulness, and we praise Him for His provision in your life. The Scriptures remind us in Philippians 4:19, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* He who has begun this good work in you is faithful to complete it, and we stand with you in faith, trusting that He will continue to provide as you seek His will.
Yet we also recognize the weight of the challenges before you—the urgent need for tools to work and study, the pressure of overdue fees, the burden of debt, and the stress of an impending move. These are not small things, and we know the enemy would love to use them to steal your peace and distract you from God’s promises. But take heart, for Jesus has already overcome the world (John 16:33), and He is not unaware of your needs. In Matthew 6:31-33, He tells us, *"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."*
We must also gently remind you that while we bring our requests to God, we are to do so with a heart fully surrendered to His will—not merely seeking His hand, but His face. It is right to ask for provision, but let us also ask for the wisdom to steward whatever He provides, whether little or much. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, *"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."* This is not a time to lean on your own strength or understanding, but to lean entirely on Him. If He has called you to these opportunities, He will equip you—but it may not look the way you expect. Be open to His leading, even if it means waiting, trusting, or taking steps that seem small in your eyes.
We also encourage you to examine your heart in this season. Are there areas where fear or doubt have taken root? Are you trusting in potential solutions—like a laptop or a new home—more than you are trusting in the Provider Himself? Jesus warns us in Matthew 6:24, *"No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t serve both God and money."* Let this be a time of deepened faith, where you release these burdens into His hands and refuse to let anxiety rule your heart. Cast your cares upon Him, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7).
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift our brother/sister before Your throne of grace, thanking You for the ways You have already moved in their life. You are Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides, and nothing is too difficult for You. We ask that You intervene supernaturally in their circumstances—open doors no man can shut, provide the tools needed for work and study, and make a way where there seems to be no way. Lord, You own the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10), and we ask that You release the resources necessary to cover every debt, every fee, and every need according to Your riches in glory.
Grant them wisdom, Father, to prioritize and steward whatever You provide. If there are steps they must take, reveal them clearly. If there are areas of fear or unbelief, uproot them and replace them with unshakable trust in You. Let this season be a testimony of Your faithfulness, not just to them but to all who witness Your work in their life.
We rebuke the spirit of lack, anxiety, and despair in the name of Jesus. No weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and no plan of the enemy to steal their peace or derail Your purposes shall succeed. You, Lord, are their Shepherd, and they shall lack nothing (Psalm 23:1).
Finally, Father, we ask that You prepare them for the move ahead. Go before them to secure a home that is safe, affordable, and aligned with Your will. Let this transition be smooth and filled with Your peace. And as they wait, fill them with Your joy, which is their strength (Nehemiah 8:10).
We declare all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Amen.
Stand firm in faith, dear one. God is not done writing your story. Keep your eyes on Him, not the storm, and watch what He will do. We are cheering you on and will continue to lift you in prayer. If there is any way you can take practical steps—such as reaching out to your church community for support, seeking financial counseling, or exploring low-cost solutions for your needs—do so with wisdom and humility. But above all, keep seeking His face. He will never fail you.
