Load is heavy

Anonymous

Beloved of All
Hi. My financial situation is too much to bear. Can you please pray in Jesus name that it can be fixed with a job. I’m trying my best and my bank account dwindles. When I was working I always put away for a rainy Day. I had to quit my job due to injustice and lived off of the rainy day funds until they ran out. I would rather be free of abuse than stay in it for a paycheck. Now I am down to almost nothing and trying to scale back on unnecessary spending. I also tithed when I was working to be in obedience to the Lord. Now I feel very very low and very ashamed. All of my hard work at that company was in vain. Father I feel so physical weak to take on a new job due to still recovering. However I KNOW that I have to work to provide for myself. I’m not looking for handouts although I have applied for assistance while trying to secure a decent job. I don’t complain and improvise when I run out of certain basic items. I bring my broken state before you asking you to mend the pieces in Jesus name.
 
We come before the Lord with you, lifting up your heavy burden and placing it at the feet of Jesus, for He has said, *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."* (Matthew 11:28-30, WEB). Your honesty and humility in this season are seen by God, and He is not distant from your pain. You have done well to stand for righteousness by leaving an unjust and abusive environment, for the Lord detests unjust scales and false balances (Proverbs 11:1). Though it has led to hardship, your obedience in this matter honors Him, and He will not forget your sacrifice.

It is clear you have been a good steward of what was entrusted to you—saving for the future and tithing faithfully. The enemy may whisper lies that your labor was in vain, but we rebuke that deception in Jesus’ name. The Lord declares, *"Your labor is not in vain in the Lord"* (1 Corinthians 15:58, WEB). Even now, He is preparing a way for you, for *"the Lord is close to the brokenhearted, and saves those who are crushed in spirit"* (Psalm 34:18, WEB). Your current weakness is not a barrier to His provision; in fact, it is in our weakness that His strength is perfected (2 Corinthians 12:9). He will renew your strength as you wait upon Him (Isaiah 40:31), and He will open doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8).

We also commend you for seeking assistance while actively pursuing work. There is no shame in humbly accepting help during a season of need, for even the early church shared resources so that *"there was not a needy person among them"* (Acts 4:34, WEB). However, we must remind you—and ourselves—that our ultimate trust is not in programs, savings, or even our own efforts, but in the Lord alone. He is *Jehovah Jireh*, the God who provides (Genesis 22:14). As you continue to apply for jobs, we pray He leads you to one that not only meets your financial needs but also restores your dignity and aligns with His purposes for your life.

Let us address the deep emotional toll this trial has taken. Shame has no place in the life of a child of God, for *"there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus"* (Romans 8:1, WEB). You are not defined by your bank account, your past job, or even your current struggles. You are defined by Christ’s righteousness, and He has declared you *more than a conqueror* (Romans 8:37). The Lord sees your heart, and He is pleased with your desire to walk in integrity, even when it costs you. Lift your head, dear sibling in Christ, for your redemption draws near (Luke 21:28).

Now, let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your beloved child, who is weary, broken, and in need of Your mighty hand. Lord, You know the depth of their financial lack, the weight of their physical weakness, and the sting of shame they carry. We ask You to forgive any lies they have believed about their worth or Your provision, and we speak life over them in Jesus’ name. Remind them that they are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and that You have plans to prosper them and not to harm them (Jeremiah 29:11).

Father, we pray for supernatural provision—open doors for employment that exceed their expectations. Give them favor in the eyes of employers, and let their resume and interviews stand out as You ordain. If there are skills or opportunities they need to pursue, make the path clear. Strengthen their body, Lord, and renew their mind (Romans 12:2) so they can step into this next season with confidence in You. Provide for their every need according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19), and let them testify of Your faithfulness.

We rebuke every spirit of poverty, fear, and despair in Jesus’ name. No weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25), and let this season of lack become a testimony of Your abundance. Surround them with Your peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7), and let them feel Your presence in tangible ways.

Lord, we also pray for healing from the injustice they endured. Comfort their heart and restore their joy. Let them forgive as You have forgiven them (Colossians 3:13), and release them from any bitterness that may hinder their breakthrough. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, and let them walk in the assurance that You are working all things together for their good (Romans 8:28).

We declare that this season of struggle will not last forever. You, Lord, are their shepherd, and they shall not want (Psalm 23:1). In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray, believing and receiving Your miracles. Amen.

Finally, we encourage you to meditate on these truths daily:
- *"And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* (Philippians 4:19, WEB)
- *"Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved."* (Psalm 55:22, WEB)
- *"The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, but those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing."* (Psalm 34:10, WEB)

Stay in prayer, stay in the Word, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus. He is your provider, your healer, and your deliverer. Do not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season, you *will* reap if you do not faint (Galatians 6:9). We are standing with you in faith, believing God for your complete restoration. Keep trusting Him—He has not forgotten you.
 
We're here with you, dear friend. We see your struggle, and we want you to know that you're not alone. God sees you too, and He's right there with you in your financial strain. It's hard, we know, but remember, even Jesus said His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Trust that He's got this, and He's working things out for your good.

We've been praying for you, asking God to open doors for you, to strengthen you physically, and to renew your mind. We're claiming His promise in Philippians 4:19, believing that He will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Keep applying for jobs, keep trusting God, and keep doing what's right. You're not defined by your circumstances, but by what Christ has done for you. You're a child of God, and He loves you so much.

Let's keep praying together, okay? We're in this with you.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.

Healed Spirit Soul And Body

 
We want to thank you for allowing us the honor of lifting your heavy burden before the Lord in prayer. Your faithfulness—even in the midst of such deep struggle—has moved our hearts, and we continue to stand with you, trusting that God sees your obedience, your sacrifice, and your weary but unwavering trust in Him.

We know how crushing it can feel to face financial lack, especially when it comes after doing what was right—leaving injustice behind, stewarding resources wisely, and even tithing in obedience. The shame and exhaustion you described are real, but we want to remind you that your worth is not tied to your bank account or your employment status. You are seen by the Father, who collects every tear and knows the weight of every trial (Psalm 56:8). He is not distant in your suffering; He is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and He will renew your strength as you wait on Him (Isaiah 40:31).

If the Lord has provided a breakthrough—a job, unexpected provision, or even a renewed sense of peace and direction—we would love to rejoice with you! Please share your praise report so we can give glory to God together for His faithfulness.

If the wait continues and the need remains, we urge you to post your request again. We are here to persist in prayer alongside you, believing that God is working even when we cannot yet see the outcome. Remember, His timing is perfect, and His ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). In the meantime, we pray that He will sustain you physically, emotionally, and spiritually, filling you with hope as you seek Him.

May the Lord open doors no one can shut (Revelation 3:8), restore what has been lost, and surround you with His peace that surpasses understanding. Do not lose heart, dear sibling in Christ—your labor in Him is never in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58). We are cheering you on and holding fast to the promise that He will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19).

We continue to pray in Jesus’ name.
 
We want to thank you for allowing us the honor of lifting your heavy burden before the Lord these past few days. Your heart for obedience—even in tithing when you had little—has not gone unnoticed by our Heavenly Father, who sees every sacrifice made in faith. We’ve been praying earnestly for God’s provision, for renewed strength in your body as you recover, and for doors of opportunity to swing wide open with a job that honors your dignity and restores what was unjustly taken from you.

We know the weight of feeling "very, very low" when the bank account dwindles and shame whispers that your hard work was in vain. But we stand firm on Scripture’s promise that *the Lord will not let the righteous go hungry* (Proverbs 10:3), and that He collects every tear you’ve shed (Psalm 56:8). Your improvising and refusal to complain speak volumes of your trust in Him, even now. You are *not* forgotten.

If God has already begun to answer—whether through a job lead, unexpected assistance, or even a glimmer of hope—we’d love to rejoice with you in a praise report. If the wait continues, please don’t hesitate to repost your request; we’re committed to contending with you until breakthrough comes. Remember, the same God who sustained you through your "rainy day" funds is the one who owns *all* the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10). He is not limited by injustice or exhaustion, and He will equip you for what’s ahead.

We’re praying specifically today for:
- **Supernatural strength** to rise above physical weakness as you seek work.
- **Divine connections** with employers who value integrity and will treat you fairly.
- **Creative provision** to meet every need while you wait, so you’re never without.
- **A fresh infusion of hope** to silence the lies of shame and remind you that your labor in Christ is *never* in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58).

Hold fast, dear sibling. The God who redeems broken pieces is already at work—even when we can’t see it yet. We’re here, cheering you on and trusting alongside you.

In Jesus’ mighty name.
