Beloved of All
Dear Lord, In this season of unemployment, I have even more time to spend with you. I’m trying to understand how to navigate through the deep dark valley of rent arrears debt, landlords pushing for funding and the back and forth with creditors. Some days I regret leaving an abusive (incessant) work environment because I lost my sole source of income. Those people wanted to fire me but they couldn’t. Money is not my god. Losing that job is tied to losing health insurance, the ability to get food, unpaid bills and loss of housing. Lord in Jesus name please make a way in the “wilderness” as I actively do my part. It’s embarrassing and now I’m going to rest myself and get some sleep.
 
We hear your heart and stand with you in this difficult season, lifting your burdens before the throne of grace. The weight of financial strain, the pressure from creditors, and the lingering pain of an abusive work environment are heavy to carry, but we know that the Lord is your provider, your defender, and your peace. You are not alone in this valley—He walks with you, and so do we, as we intercede on your behalf.

First, we want to affirm your trust in God over money. It is a powerful declaration to say, *"Money is not my god,"* and we pray that this truth anchors your heart even when the storms rage. The Lord sees your faithfulness in seeking Him first, and He will not abandon you. As it is written in Matthew 6:31-33, *"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."* You are seeking Him, and He *will* provide.

We also want to acknowledge the pain of leaving that toxic work environment. It is never easy to walk away from abuse, even when it is the right thing to do. The enemy may try to whisper regrets or shame, but we rebuke those lies in Jesus’ name. You did not fail—you chose freedom, and that is courageous. The Lord is your vindicator, and He will restore what was stolen from you. Psalm 34:18-19 reminds us, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all."* Your deliverance is coming.

Now, let us address the practical and spiritual battles you face. Financial hardship can feel like a wilderness, but we serve a God who makes rivers in the desert (Isaiah 43:19). We pray that He would open doors of opportunity—whether through new employment, unexpected provision, or divine favor with creditors. We declare that your rent arrears will be settled, your debts will be cleared, and your needs will be met. The Lord is your shepherd; you *shall not* lack (Psalm 23:1).

We also lift up your health and housing. Losing insurance and stability is frightening, but we trust that the Lord will sustain you. We pray for wisdom as you navigate assistance programs, community resources, or even temporary solutions. May He lead you to the right people and places that can offer help. 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 direct your paths."* We declare that He *is* directing your steps, even when the path is unclear.

Lastly, we want to encourage you to rest. Sleep is not an escape—it is a gift from God, a time for your body and soul to be renewed. Psalm 127:2 says, *"It is vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil; for he gives sleep to his loved ones."* You are loved, and He gives you permission to rest in Him.

Let us pray together:

*"Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister in Christ, lifting up every burden they carry. Lord, You see their need, their pain, and their trust in You. We ask that You would make a way in this wilderness—open doors of provision, soften the hearts of creditors, and restore what has been lost. Father, we rebuke the spirit of shame and regret that tries to cling to them. You did not bring them this far to leave them. We declare that You are their provider, their healer, and their peace.

Lord, we pray for new opportunities to arise—work that honors You, employers who value them, and favor in every application and interview. We ask for wisdom in managing finances, for creative solutions to their housing and debt, and for Your supernatural provision where human resources fall short. Father, we also pray for their health. Cover them with Your healing hand and lead them to the care they need.

Above all, we ask that You would draw them closer to You in this season. Let them feel Your presence in the quiet moments, Your peace in the storm, and Your hope for the future. Strengthen their faith, renew their strength, and remind them that You are working all things together for their good (Romans 8:28).

We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your faithfulness and declare that this season of lack will turn into a testimony of Your provision. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen."*

Hold fast to hope, dear one. The Lord is not slow in keeping His promises—He is preparing a table for you in the presence of your enemies (Psalm 23:5). Keep seeking Him, keep trusting Him, and watch how He moves on your behalf. You are not forgotten.
 
We're right there with you, friend, in this season of uncertainty and change. It's tough, we know, feeling like you're in a financial wilderness, with debts piling up and bills stacking high. But remember, God sees you, He knows your needs, and He's walking right beside you.

We want to echo what's already been said, but also share a little something from our own hearts. You know, even in the darkest valleys, there's always a glimmer of light. That light, for us, is our faith in Jesus. He's the light of the world, and He's promised to never leave us or forsake us. So, even when it feels like everything's falling apart, we can hold onto that promise.

We also want to encourage you to keep seeking God's face. In times like these, it's easy to get caught up in worry and fear. But remember, Matthew 6:33 tells us to "Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." So, let's keep seeking Him, let's keep trusting Him, and let's watch how He moves on our behalf.

And hey, it's okay to rest. God's given us sleep as a gift, a time for our bodies and souls to be renewed. So, let's take that time, let's let our hearts be still before Him, and let's trust that He's got this.

Let's pray together, shall we? "Lord, we come before You today, laying down our burdens, our fears, our anxieties. We trust that You see us, that You know our needs, and that You're working everything out for our good. We ask for provision, for wisdom, for peace. We ask that You would open doors of opportunity, that You would soften hearts, and that You would restore what's been lost. We trust in You, Lord. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

You're not alone, friend. We're in this together. Keep trusting, keep seeking, and keep resting in Him. He's got you.
