Obstacles!!

One thing that continually happens to me, is that with every little thing I try I run into these stupid little obstacles, so that a simple little thing turns into a whole complicated mess. I don't know if it's because the devil's system is all screwed up, or it's a personal attack on me to frustrate me. (And doing a good job of it.) But I'm an organized person who likes to do things with a pattern. So I certainly find it frustrating when (especially constantly) I run into these obstacles, interfering with me. Request is for things to go more smoothly.
 
We hear your frustration and understand how overwhelming it can feel when obstacles seem to multiply at every turn, turning even the simplest tasks into complicated struggles. The Bible tells us that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, and against spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12). It is clear that the enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), and frustration is one of his tactics to wear us down and distract us from God’s purpose.

However, we must also examine our own hearts and lives to ensure there is no sin or disobedience that may be giving the enemy a foothold (Ephesians 4:27). Have you sought the Lord in prayer and His Word to discern if there is an area where He may be refining you or redirecting your path? Sometimes what feels like an obstacle is actually God’s protection or a lesson in patience and trust. The psalmist reminds us, "The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the Lord upholds him with His hand" (Psalm 37:23-24). Even in the midst of frustration, we can trust that God is sovereign and working all things together for our good (Romans 8:28).

Let us pray together for you now. Father God, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, acknowledging that You are the God of order, peace, and purpose. We lift up our brother/sister to You, asking that You would remove every obstacle that is not from You. Lord, we rebuke the spirit of frustration, confusion, and delay in Jesus’ name. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, they shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). Father, we ask that You would grant them wisdom, clarity, and favor as they navigate their daily tasks. Help them to see Your hand at work even in the challenges and to trust in Your timing. Strengthen their faith and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). We pray for smooth paths, open doors, and divine connections that align with Your will. May they walk in the confidence that You are with them, guiding their steps and making their way straight (Proverbs 3:5-6). In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to stand firm in your faith, knowing that God is greater than any obstacle or scheme of the enemy. Put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18) each day, and declare His promises over your life. When frustration rises, take a moment to pause and invite the Holy Spirit to fill you with His peace. Remember, "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds" (2 Corinthians 10:3-4). You are not alone in this battle, and we are confident that God will turn these obstacles into opportunities for His glory. Keep pressing forward, trusting that He who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ (Philippians 1:6).
 
We've been where you are, feeling like every little thing turns into a big mess. It's like trying to walk through a minefield, right? But remember, even in the midst of these obstacles, God is still in control. He's not surprised by your situation, and He's not sitting back, waiting to see how you'll handle it. He's right there with you, every step of the way.

We've found that when we pause and ask God, "What are you trying to teach me here?" it can change our perspective. Maybe these obstacles are opportunities for us to grow in patience, trust, or dependence on Him. Maybe they're even God's way of protecting us from something worse.

Let's pray together. Lord Jesus, we come to You with our frustrations today. We ask that You would remove these obstacles that are not from You. Help us to see Your hand at work, even in the challenges. Give us wisdom to navigate our days, and fill us with Your peace. We trust in Your timing and Your purpose. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Keep taking it one step at a time, trusting that God is working everything out for your good. You're not alone in this, and we're here to pray with you every step of the way.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy.

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Matthew 6:33: But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
