We come before you with heavy hearts, lifting up our brother who is overwhelmed by the weight of his circumstances—physically, emotionally, spiritually, and financially. The burdens he carries are many, and the enemy has sought to crush him under the weight of despair, bitterness, and financial oppression. Yet we know that even in the deepest valleys, our God is sovereign, and His plans are for our good, though we may not always understand them.
First, we must address the deep wound of unforgiveness toward God that has taken root in your heart. Beloved, we understand your pain, but we urge you to consider the words of Job, who, though he suffered greatly, declared, *"Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him"* (Job 13:15, WEB). God is not the author of evil—He is holy, just, and good. Satan is the accuser, the thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but our Lord is the One who redeems, restores, and works all things together for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28). The enemy may have been allowed to sift you like wheat, but Jesus has prayed for you, that your faith may not fail (Luke 22:31-32). Do not let bitterness harden your heart. Instead, surrender your pain to the Lord, for He is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). Repent of this unforgiveness, for it is a weight that will only deepen your suffering. *"Be angry, and don’t sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath, and don’t give place to the devil"* (Ephesians 4:26-27, WEB). Your anger is giving the enemy a foothold—release it to Jesus, who bore your sorrows on the cross.
You have also mentioned a "confirmed satanic assignment" against you. We do not doubt that the enemy is at work, but we serve a God who is greater. *"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4, WEB). Put on the whole armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18), stand firm in faith, and resist the devil, knowing that he must flee (James 4:7). We will pray fervently for the Lord to break every chain of darkness over your life and to expose and dismantle every scheme of the enemy. The blood of Jesus is more powerful than any curse or assignment of the enemy.
Regarding your financial crisis, we acknowledge the predatory nature of the lenders who have exploited your situation. The Bible warns against such injustice: *"He who increases his wealth by excessive interest gathers it for one who has pity on the poor"* (Proverbs 28:8, WEB). We pray that the Lord will intervene supernaturally in this situation. He is Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides, and He owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10). We ask Him to make a way where there seems to be no way—whether through divine provision, favor with the lenders, or a miraculous solution you cannot yet see. *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:19, WEB). Trust Him, even now, to turn this around for your good.
We also lift up your deep loneliness—the absence of a wife and children. We know this ache is real, and God sees it. He created marriage and family as a blessing, and it is not wrong to desire these things. But we must also surrender this longing to Him, trusting in His timing and His will. *"Delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this"* (Psalm 37:4-5, WEB). If it is His will for you to have a spouse, He will bring it to pass in His perfect time. In the meantime, seek Him first, and let Him prepare you to be the godly husband and father He has called you to be. Do not allow desperation to lead you into relationships that are not of God—whether through compromise, unbelief, or seeking outside of His will. A godly marriage is built on the foundation of Christ, and we pray that the Lord will prepare you and your future spouse for a covenant that honors Him.
Lastly, we notice that your cry for help did not invoke the name of Jesus. Beloved, there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). It is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father (John 14:6). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Him, we urge you to do so now. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). If you are already a believer, then we encourage you to approach the throne of grace boldly in His name, for it is in Jesus that we find mercy and grace to help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16).
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother who is crushed under the weight of his circumstances. Lord, You see his pain—his financial despair, his loneliness, his bitterness, and the spiritual warfare raging against him. We ask You to forgive him for the unforgiveness in his heart toward You, and we pray that You would soften his heart to receive Your love and truth. Break every chain of bitterness, anger, and despair, and fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
Lord, we rebuke every satanic assignment against his life. We declare that no weapon formed against him shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We bind every spirit of poverty, oppression, and loneliness in the name of Jesus, and we command them to flee. We ask You, Lord, to expose and dismantle every scheme of the enemy. Let Your light shine into every dark place and bring freedom.
Father, we pray for supernatural intervention in his financial crisis. You are the God who parts the Red Sea, who multiplies loaves and fishes, who provides manna in the wilderness. We ask You to provide for his every need—restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25), and make a way for him to keep his vehicle. Give him wisdom to navigate this situation, and if it is Your will, soften the hearts of those who seek to exploit him. Let Your justice prevail, Lord.
We also lift up his desire for a wife and family. Father, if it is Your will, prepare him to be a godly husband and father. Bring a woman of faith, virtue, and godly character into his life, and let their union be founded on You. Until then, satisfy his longing with Your presence, and teach him to find his fulfillment in You alone.
Lord, we pray that You would draw him closer to Yourself through this trial. Let him know that You are with him, that You have not abandoned him, and that Your plans for him are good. Renew his strength like the eagle’s (Isaiah 40:31), and let him rise from this valley with a testimony of Your faithfulness.
We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Beloved, hold fast to your faith. The Lord has not forgotten you. *"For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory; while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal"* (2 Corinthians 4:17-18, WEB). Keep your eyes on Jesus, and trust that He is working even now. We are standing with you in prayer.
