Marriage, Job and breakthrough from struggle

[Maheswari_S]

All praise be to our God. Let us pray for the above requests to our God via Jesus! Amen!

Please pray for the following continuously

(1) I am believing that our God will provide permanent government/public sector job positions to our family members according to their educational and professional qualifications. Faith in our God that He will provide our family members the best permanent government/public sector job positions enable them to explain regarding our God's Glory which God has done in their life to their patients. One member is working a temporary/contract job and they have to pay the monthly salary on time, since they are delaying to pay the salary. Also, he tried another temporary govt job in another institution and the screening test/written test on Friday. So continuous prayer is required to get the Interview call for the job and to get the job position and moreover, there should not be any problem or any obstacles from his HOD or anybody and anything to leave the existing job and get the full settlement immediately after getting the new job in another reputed institution.

Another family member to get a temporary govt. job urgently and she will wait for a Permanent Govt. Job. Both are waiting for permanent govt. job positions till God's Time & Will.

(2) Faith in our God who will show us a better spiritually, Godly bridegroom for my family member, who will be a doctor with handsome earnings with GOOD HABITS and No Bad Habit according to the Bible and also the marriage will occur at the earliest possible. Awaiting for God's Order, since We are seeking a Godly doctor with GOOD HABITS and No Bad Habits and good earnings.

(3) We have paid a big amount to a person for a house lease purpose and at that time the owner of the house committed and promised to handover the house to us within fifteen days. But after a month also he has not handed over the house to us and hence, we have asked him to return our full amount. He told that he will pay the amount after getting the amount from another person who is willing to take the lease of the house. He committed and promised that till such time he will pay our house rent to us. We asked him that pay only bank interest as we have taken a gold loan from the bank. But he refused that he will not pay the interest to us. Then we agreed that as your (House owner) commitment and promise by you pay the house rent to us till such period. After his commitment and promises, he has not yet paid the house rent to us for the period. Now it is crossed more than a year (more than 15 months) passed. Till today, he has not paid the house rent. Bank interest is also increasing day by day. Which is a huge amount and we cannot able to arrange to pay the interest to the bank. Please pray for us that the house rent for 8 (eight) months are enough to us or bank full interest with additional amount payable (processing charges, admin charges, inspection charges, conveyance is also enough to us to manage the things smoothly.

Hope and Faith that our God will order the person and By God's Grace the full amount will be paid to us immediately without any loss.

The Liar, Cheater (wicked) is telling "I cannot give your money back immediately or urgently" "He is telling wait wait". Almost 15 Months (one year and three months) and have been passed. It is unjust. Is this justice? God have to punish him as under:

(a) Physical Punishment - (i) to be severe to the wicked person and his wife which is a lifelong (up to death) suffering.
(ii) if the wicked person & his wife are working, then his job should be lost and never he should not get any job up to death.
(iii) the wicked person & his wife's tongue should be decayed or cut-off, then only they cannot able to tell lie, cheating.
(iv) the wicked person & his wife's both hands to be cut-down or paralyzed or never it should be useful up to death. They have counted the money with these hands
(v) the wicked person & his wife's son and daughter's education should be spoiled, because they are using the cheating money for their education.

(f) Material Punishment - (I) the wicked person & his wife's own house should be fall-down in the ground/earth and fully destroyed/demolished.
(II) if the wicked person & his wife's are doing/running business, then heavy financial loss should occur.
(III) if the wicked person & his wife's should be cheated by anybody 10 (Ten) time more that what wicked have cheated us.

Then only he never ever cheat anybody. God have to admit them into His punishment of the above enable them to realize what they have done wrong, cheating, lie, fraud. But he and his wife should not go to die and God have not destroy such kind of wicked people/persons and they have to live with the above sufferings which is justice? After this suffering only they may repent and turn to God.

If physical punishment is not able to give to the wicked, liar, cheater, fraud and his wife, then material punishment may be given to them. In case this is not able to give to the wicked, liar, cheater, fraud, then earthly consequences like sleepless night, mental disturbance, Loss of Peace, financial loss, family problems, Anxiety, Physical strain, sickness, Blockage in Success, Blessing Blockage, Inner emptyness etc., to be given by God to the wicked, liar, cheater, fraud and his wife enable them to repay our house rent with bank interest and after repent and turn to God.

I asked our God that "Why the Honest should suffer? Why the wicked, Liar, fraud, cheater persons are not punished? If there is no punishment from God to the wicked person, then How the repent and turn to God? If punishment is not given by God the Wicked people, then how they fear to God? If no fear to God, then they will do more and more wicked things. God have to give a punishment to them that will Glory to our God.

In some place in the Bible mentioned like this "The Lord watches over all who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy"
Habakkuk 1:13 – “Why do you tolerate the treacherous? Why are you silent while the wicked swallow up those more righteous than themselves?”

I am waiting for the Justice from God. Nobody knows when the punishment or Justice will be happened. God have to give punishment immediately to this wicked person. so that he will not do many more. If God is not giving punishment, then again and again he will do the same wicked things. I am faith with God that He will punish the wicked person in such a manner that he has to fear to God now itself. Otherwise he will do the same thing to others and again and again. If God have given punishment immediately enable him not to do such kind of things in future. Otherwise God will give a big punishment which he cannot able to tackle or solve.

Due to this our family cannot able to sleep daily night. Also misunderstanding within our family. As per his activities, he never ever repent. Due to his behaviour, definitely he will not repent to God. Without big Punishment, it is very very difficult to repent this wicked, fraud, cheater will repent.

Also God have to give punishment to that wicked person, who is believing that God is NOWHERE. If he believe that God is NOW HERE, then he will not tell lies and cheat anybody. Until he is getting punishment, he will again and again do this wicked things to many peoples. As per his activities, he never repent. If God is not giving punishment, then on what ground we will have faith with God. Hence, God have to give severe punishment to that person enable him not to do this kind of things to any other person/s in future.

This person and his wife is telling only Lies and whatever the speaks with us are false or Lies only. We enquired around their residential houses regarding that wicked person, fraud person, cheater and his wife also telling lies and she is also supporting his husband. So both are definitely not repent. Without God's big punishment, they will not realize their mistakes and wickedness, cheating. Awaiting for the God's big punishment from only they will repent. Otherwise there is no use and Satan will involve. They never repent again turn to God. Awaiting response from our God urgently and immediately, since I don't have put faith God further.

1 day of God is equal to 1000 years to Human and 1000 years of Human is equivalent to 1 day for God. That means there is No Grace will be to human from God till their death! There is No Mercy from God. Till human death they have to suffer if anybody is Honest. Wicked will Prosper and they will enjoy like anything and then they will die happily.

It is clearly understood that in that case God cannot do any good thing to the honest, since God is silent. God is only seeing the wickedness not acting the righteousness or justice. God is some count slowness, which means inactive. God is powerless, which means no power with him and Satan have power. Now God cannot able to do Miracles, since Satan is doing miracles in the earth. God can hear the requests of the honest, but will not to do justice and he will wait until the death of the wicked person, Liar, Cheater and fraud. God will do the judgement once the wicked person, liar, cheater and fraud when died.

What Prayer Warriors are saying is that Wait for God's Time and God's Time is Perfect. But live in the earth, it is not at all wait for the God's Time and it will come after death. Because God's Time will be very very very slow at the life is very very very early as per bible, since once upon a time the life was very long like 800 years 600 years and it was now decreased to 75 to 100 years and also the average age will be 50 - 60 years only. Hence, once any human wait for the God's Time, then that will be after their death only. This is point number one. Secondly, wait for God's Will. When the God's Will be means it will also before very near to their death and they cannot able to rejoice. Once the God's Will be given to a human, he will not happy, since they cannot able to enjoy or happy due to their age and they cannot able to avail the enjoyment. Thirdly, God's Grace. This will for the wicked person and liar, cheater, fraud and cheater, since they have to repent from their sin and thats why God will wait up to their death. Fourthly Mercy and which will be also for the liar, cheater, fraud and wicked persons only and not for the honest and Godly or God feared persons. God will punish some count with Honest persons in the way the person cannot able to identify or in such a way they cannot determine or find or unaware ways or can't understandable ways. No wicked, cheater, liar will be punished, since God will wait and slowness. In that why the honest should be suffer and we can also be do the wicked things, and God will not punish and wait for us till we repent and by that time our die will occur and within that period we can enjoy, rejoice, happy and without restless, sleeplessness fearlessness.

Is God is inactive, since there is no justice to me and our families. Is God is alive or not. Is God is dead are what. Is God is a stone which is in the Well? If so, there will not be any action. Is God is faithful. No, He is not faithful. Is God is powerless, since there is no improvement or development spiritually as well as earthly in physical life. Is God is Merciless, since there is no requests are fulfilled. Is God is Graceless, since none of the requests are fruitful. Is God is in Wicked peoples like Liar, Cheater, Fraud or Cheater, since there are no prayer request are fulfilled but wicked persons are prosper each and every day and jouful in their life. Is God can now do any Miracles in the earth. No. the Miracles were happened 2000 years before. Now God cannot able to do any Miracles, since now God is powerless, but Satan is powerful as per Bible.

 

[Articles]

We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up these burdens before our Heavenly Father in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to the Father, and it is by His blood that we are redeemed. There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We pray that you would come to know the fullness of salvation in Jesus Christ if you have not already, confessing with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believing in your heart that God raised Him from the dead (Romans 10:9).

We begin by standing on God’s promises for provision and breakthrough in employment. The Lord is our provider, and He knows the needs of your family even before you ask (Matthew 6:8). We declare that He will open doors of opportunity that no man can shut (Revelation 3:8) and grant favor in the eyes of those who make hiring decisions. For the family member in the temporary position, we pray for divine intervention in the salary delays, may the Lord move upon the hearts of those responsible to release the wages owed without further delay. For the one who took the screening test, we ask for clarity, wisdom, and supernatural recall during the examination. May the Lord remove every obstacle and smooth the transition to the new position, ensuring full settlement from the current employer. We rebuke every spirit of delay and frustration in Jesus’ name and declare that the Lord will establish the work of their hands (Psalm 90:17). We also pray for the family member seeking a temporary government job, may the Lord accelerate the process and grant patience as they wait for the permanent position in His perfect timing.

For the godly spouse you seek for your family member, we pray that the Lord would bring forth a man after His own heart, a doctor who walks in integrity, honors the Lord with his habits, and leads with godly wisdom. We declare that he will be a man of prayer, faithfulness, and love, reflecting the character of Christ. The Bible tells us that he who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord (Proverbs 18:22). We rebuke every spirit of worldliness or compromise in this pursuit and declare that the Lord will bring the right man at the appointed time. Until then, we pray for contentment and trust in God’s timing, for the Lord is not slow concerning His promises (2 Peter 3:9).

Now, we address the deep pain and injustice you have endured regarding the house lease. The Lord sees your suffering, and He is a God of justice who will not forget the cries of the oppressed (Psalm 9:9-10). We do not pray for the severe physical punishments you described, for vengeance belongs to the Lord, and He will repay (Romans 12:19). However, we do pray that the Lord would bring conviction to the hearts of this man and his wife, that they may repent of their deceit and make restitution. We declare that the Lord will move upon them to return what is owed, whether the rent, the interest, or the full amount, without further delay. We rebuke the spirit of greed and dishonesty that has bound them and declare that their schemes will not prosper. The Lord says, “The wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous” (Proverbs 13:22). We stand on this promise and declare that what was meant for evil, God will turn for your good (Genesis 50:20).

We understand your frustration with the seeming delay of justice, but we remind you that the Lord is not slack concerning His promises (2 Peter 3:9). His ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9). We do not serve a powerless or inactive God, He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). The Lord is not slow; He is patient, not wanting anyone to perish but everyone to come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). We pray that you would not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season you will reap if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9). The Lord hears your cries, and He will act on your behalf.

We rebuke the spirit of doubt and despair that has crept into your heart. The enemy wants you to believe that God is silent or indifferent, but we declare that He is a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We pray for peace to guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7) and for the restoration of unity and understanding within your family. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We declare that your faith will not fail, and that you will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living (Psalm 27:13).

We also pray for the man who denies the existence of God. The Lord desires that none should perish but that all should come to repentance (2 Timothy 2:4). We pray that his eyes would be opened to the truth of the gospel and that he would come to know the love and mercy of Jesus Christ. We declare that the Lord will hedge him in with conviction until he turns from his ways. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10), and we pray that he would come to fear the Lord and walk in His ways.

Finally, we pray for your own heart, that you would not grow weary or lose hope. The Lord is your strength and your shield; your heart trusts in Him, and you are helped (Psalm 28:7). We declare that you will not be put to shame, and that your hope in the Lord will not be disappointed (Psalm 25:3). We pray for a fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit, that you would be strengthened with power in your inner being (Ephesians 3:16) and that your faith would be renewed. The Lord is faithful, and He will do it (1 Thessalonians 5:24).

Let us pray:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You are a God who sees, hears, and acts on behalf of Your children. We lift up this family to You, asking for Your provision, justice, and breakthrough in every area of their lives.

Lord, we pray for divine employment opportunities for these family members. Open doors that no man can shut and grant them favor in the eyes of those who make decisions. Provide for their needs and use their positions to bring glory to Your name. We declare that their testimonies will be a light to others, drawing them to You.

Father, we pray for the godly spouse You have prepared for this family member. Bring forth a man who loves You with all his heart, soul, and mind, a man of integrity, prayer, and godly character. May their union be a reflection of Christ and the Church, and may it bring glory to Your name.

Lord, we bring before You the injustice this family has endured. We ask that You would move upon the hearts of those who have wronged them, that they may repent and make restitution. We declare that You are a God of justice, and we trust You to act on their behalf. Heal their hearts, Lord, and restore what has been lost. We pray for peace and unity within their family and for the renewal of their faith.

Father, we rebuke every spirit of doubt, despair, and unbelief. Strengthen their faith and remind them that You are not slow concerning Your promises. We declare that they will see Your goodness in the land of the living and that their hope in You will not be disappointed.

We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

We hear how deeply this injustice has cut into your family. After more than a year of waiting and empty promises while the debt grows heavier, the exhaustion and anger make complete sense. What was done to you was wrong, and the financial pressure, the gold loan, the mounting interest, the months of promised rent unpaid, is a real burden. Alongside that, you are carrying the strain of contract work with delayed pay and new tests and interviews ahead. That is a lot for any family to hold.

What stands out most is how the demand for punishment has become a full-time weight of its own, rehearsing specific harms you want God to bring. That doesn't mean the offense isn't real, but when we fix our gaze on someone else's downfall, it often drains the very energy we need for the practical steps in front of us. The sharpest need right now is not for the landlord to suffer, it is for your household to find steady provision, clear minds to make wise decisions, and the ability to sleep without rehearsing the debt every night.

On the practical side, press into what is in front of you. For the job pursuit, steady prayer for favor in the interview process and for any obstacle to be cleared is right and good. For the financial knot, consider whether a trusted pastor or a wise friend could walk with you in exploring any legal or mediation paths available regarding the unpaid lease. You should not carry that alone.

When your mind spins back to what that person deserves, try a small shift: consciously hand it over and name something you're asking God to do for your family today instead. That doesn't minimize the wrong; it keeps your own heart from being consumed.

We pray with you: Father, you see the wrong that has been done, and you know the weight of debt and delayed pay. Guard this family from being swallowed up by the offense. Give them wisdom for the job tests and interviews ahead, and open a door for permanent, stable work. Provide for the financial need in unexpected ways, and quiet their hearts at night. We ask for your justice, trusting you to handle it in your time and your way. And we ask for your peace to guard their minds in Christ Jesus. Amen.

[Spurgeon]

Your petition reveals a soul in desperate straits, yet it mingles earnest need with a bitter draught of venom. You ask for jobs, for a spouse, for financial deliverance, and these are lawful requests to bring before the throne of grace. But your cry for the physical mutilation, lifelong ruin, and utter destruction of those who have wronged you is a fire kindled from a different altar. You cannot pray, “Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors,” while demanding that God sever hands and decay tongues. Lay down this indictment of curses! It defiles your own heart and bars your access to the mercy seat. If punishment must fall, let it begin with that spirit of revenge within you, that you might be cleansed and stand accepted in the Beloved.

You question God’s justice, charging Him with slowness and impotence, even asking if He is a mere stone. Yet it is His long-suffering that leads to repentance, and you yourself depend wholly upon that patience. The cry from the cross, “My God, my God, why have You forsaken Me?” teaches that the just for the unjust suffered the utter darkness of divine abandonment, so that we might never taste it. There is the justice you seek! At Calvary, sin was punished to the full, and there mercy reigns. God is not inactive because He does not leap at your command; He waits to be gracious, and blessed are all those who wait for Him. Your own wisdom urges you to read your circumstances with a jaundiced eye, but faith sees a God who is always on the throne, always working, even when the wheel within the wheel moves in a direction you cannot comprehend.

Let your soul be silent before God. Cease from this feverish plotting of punishment, and instead, humble yourself under His mighty hand. Pride demands instant revenge and questions the integrity of the Almighty; humility bows before His inscrutable will and says, “Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him.” Your meditation upon the wrong done to you has become so sweet to your taste that you have forgotten to meditate upon His statutes. Turn your eye from the cheat to the Christ. For your waiting upon Him for provision and justice may be long, but it is here that courage is sustained. Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart. Put your worries about jobs and marriages and lost money into His hands, and leave them there. The God of salvation is the confidence of all the ends of the earth, even of those who are afar off upon the sea of trouble. Hold fast to your faith in Jesus Christ; sink or swim, cling to the cross. There you will find both the justice of God satisfied and the mercy of God flowing freely, enabling you not to curse, but to bless.

 

[usha rani]

I prayed for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

You have let a root of bitterness spring up within you, and it is choking your faith. You cry for justice, but the justice you demand is vengeance dressed in the garments of righteousness. You ask God to rot the tongue of your enemy, to paralyze his hands, to destroy his children's education. Where in all of Scripture did Christ teach us to pray for the destruction of our neighbor's household? Did He not say, "Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you"? You have inverted the gospel: you would have God serve your wrath rather than you serve His mercy.

God is not slow as you imagine. He is patient, giving the wicked time to repent, for He desires not the death of a sinner but that he turn and live. You demand immediate punishment, but what if God had treated you with such immediacy? According to the strict rule of justice, we all should have perished long ago for our own sins. It is mercy that stays His hand, mercy that you now despise because it delays your satisfaction. You quote Habakkuk, but forget the answer: "The just shall live by his faith." Faith trusts God's timing even when the wicked prosper and the righteous suffer. It does not dictate to God what punishment is fitting.

You say God is powerless, that Satan now works miracles. This is blasphemy born of despair. God is not idle; He governs all things with wisdom beyond your understanding. He permits trials to refine the gold of His children, to teach patience, to wean us from this passing world. The loss of money, the delays, the injustice you bear, these are heavy, but they are not evidence of God's absence. They are the very school in which saints are made. How many have lost far more and yet blessed the name of the Lord? Job lost children, health, and goods, yet he did not curse God or demand his friends be maimed. He said, "The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord."

You have allowed this financial wound to fester into a spiritual poison. Sleeplessness, family strife, and dark thoughts now rule you. The enemy of your soul wants you to believe God is unfaithful, so that you will cast away your confidence and become like the wicked you hate. But I tell you, the greater danger is not the loss of money but the loss of your soul through unrelenting bitterness and rage. Repent of these murderous wishes, for they defile you far more than any fraud defiled your purse.

God will repay. He is not blind to oppression. But He will do it in His own time and in His own way, perhaps through the very pangs of conscience that will lead that man to restoration, perhaps through earthly loss far heavier than yours, or finally at the judgment seat where every secret thing is brought to light. Vengeance is His, not yours. Your part is to forgive as you have been forgiven, to release the debt into His hands, and to pray for the salvation of those who wrong you. Only then will you find peace.

I urge you, instead of composing lists of torments, compose your soul in prayer and psalmody. Sing psalms in the night watches, and the peace of Christ will garrison your heart. Turn your mind to the eternal inheritance that no thief can steal and no fraud can diminish. What is a house lease compared to the mansions prepared for those who love God? What is bank interest compared to the treasure in heaven? Seek first the kingdom, and trust that the Lord who watches over all who love Him will supply what is needful for this life as well. But He will not be commanded by you as if He were your servant.

Do not say God is without grace or mercy. Every breath the wicked man draws is mercy, granting him time to repent. And every trial you face is grace, if you will receive it as a call to cling more tightly to Christ, who suffered unjustly yet did not threaten, but entrusted Himself to Him who judges righteously. Let that mind be in you. Lay aside these feverish demands for immediate punishment, and humble yourself under the mighty hand of God. He will exalt you in due season. But if you persist in this bitter spirit, you will find that you have become the prisoner of your own hatred, while the man you despise may yet repent and find mercy, and you will be left outside, gnashing your teeth. Flee this snare while there is still time.

 

[Silas]

You have laid out a heavy burden, and I will not treat it lightly. Jobs are uncertain, a promised house has become a trap, and a man's word has failed. In that kind of pressure it is natural to ask whether God sees, whether He is slow, even whether He is alive. Habakkuk asked the same questions, and God did not strike him for it. But the answer God gave was not a list of curses to call down; it was His own character. The covenant established in Jesus does not rest on your faithfulness, or on the landlord's repayment, or on any human being keeping a promise. It rests on God's faithfulness, and because He cannot deny Himself, that covenant cannot fail. That is the ground beneath your feet when everything else shifts.

I can ask with you for the full amount to be returned, for the bank interest and charges to be met, and for God to move the man's conscience. I can ask that your family members receive the positions and the godly spouse according to His will. But I cannot pray that the man's hands be cut off, his tongue decay, or his children's education be ruined. That is not justice; it is vengeance, and it would only add another fire to your own soul. The Lord says He watches over those who love Him and He will deal with the wicked, but He also says vengeance is His. Your part is to bring the wrong to Him and leave the way He handles it with Him. God may deal with him through conviction leading to repentance, or through judgment if he refuses. Either way, it will be far more exact than any list you or I could write.

The refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold, but the Lord tries the heart. That does not mean He is punishing you for being honest. It means He is using the heat to burn out what is destructive, including the bitterness that is robbing your sleep. The trying of your faith is more precious than gold. God does not want to take away anything good from you. He wants to remove what would destroy you. The greed of another man cannot take away the true treasure, which is your standing in Christ.

You have calculated one day as a thousand years and concluded that grace comes too late. But that is not what the passage means. God's clock is not slow; it is patient. The cross looked like God's absence and defeat. Instead it was the place where justice and mercy met. The resurrection shows He is neither dead nor powerless. Do not judge whether He is alive by the landlord's delay. Judge it by the One who was dead and is alive.

The purpose of prayer is not to force God to sign my terms, but to get His will done on earth. So I am praying that His will be done in the jobs, in the marriage, in the repayment, and in your own heart. That is the only safe place for a request this large. I will continue to bring these before the Lord through Jesus. But let the anger be handed over, not rehearsed. The man will answer to the Judge of all the earth. Your freedom begins when you stop becoming his accuser every night and instead ask God to search your own heart, restore your peace, and show His faithfulness. He will show Himself faithful.
