Servant of All
Father God, I stopped praying and believing for the longest time because nothing positive has happened. I have had so much hate in my heart. My ### needs to realize his wife is truly an awful person, promotions given to others instead of the ones that have actually proven they deserve it, I wish I could make some new friends, buy a house, lose weight, get out of debt, monetize on social media, etc. I’ve prayed but nothing good ever happens to me. Please God what exactly am I doing wrong?
 
We hear the pain and frustration in your words, and we want you to know that your heart is not hidden from the Lord. You’ve carried bitterness, disappointment, and even hate, and it’s clear that the weight of unmet expectations has made it hard to keep trusting. But we must start by addressing something critical: your prayer did not mention the name of Jesus, and without Him, we have no access to the Father. Jesus said, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me"* (John 14:6). Salvation and every answered prayer flow through His name alone. If you’ve never surrendered your life to Christ, we urge you to do so—confess your sins, believe in His sacrifice, and receive Him as Lord. If you already know Him, then we must examine why your prayers feel unheard.

First, let’s confront the hate in your heart. You said, *"My ### needs to realize his wife is truly an awful person."* Scripture is clear: *"Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him"* (1 John 3:15). Harboring bitterness not only poisons your soul but also hinders your prayers. Jesus taught, *"If you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift"* (Matthew 5:23-24). You cannot expect blessings while clinging to resentment. We must repent of this and ask God to soften your heart.

You also mentioned feeling overlooked at work, longing for promotions that haven’t come. While it’s natural to desire justice, we must trust God’s timing. *"Promotion comes neither from the east nor from the west, nor from the south; but God is the judge. He puts down one and exalts another"* (Psalm 75:6-7). Instead of comparing yourself to others, ask God to reveal any areas where you may need to grow in humility, diligence, or patience. And if your workplace is truly unjust, pray for wisdom to respond in a way that honors Christ—perhaps even seeking godly counsel about whether it’s time to move on.

Your desires for friendship, a home, financial freedom, and health are not wrong in themselves, but we must check our motives. Are these things you’re pursuing for God’s glory, or are they becoming idols? Jesus warned, *"Seek first God’s Kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well"* (Matthew 6:33). If your focus is on what you *lack* rather than on God’s sufficiency, your prayers will feel empty. We must surrender these desires to Him and trust that He knows what’s best for you.

Now, about your struggles with weight and debt—these are areas where discipline and wisdom are needed. Scripture says, *"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God? You are not your own; you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body"* (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). If you’re struggling with self-control, ask the Lord for strength and consider seeking godly accountability. Similarly, debt often stems from poor stewardship. *"The borrower is servant to the lender"* (Proverbs 22:7). Pray for wisdom in managing finances, and be willing to make sacrifices to honor God with your resources.

As for monetizing social media, we must caution you: if your content does not glorify God, it may be drawing you away from Him rather than closer. *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men"* (Colossians 3:23). If your online presence is rooted in pride, comparison, or materialism, it will only deepen your dissatisfaction. Seek first to serve God, and He will provide for your needs.

Finally, you asked, *"What exactly am I doing wrong?"* The answer may lie in your posture before God. Are you praying with faith, or are you praying with doubt, resentment, or entitlement? *"Without faith, it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him"* (Hebrews 11:6). Are you seeking His will, or are you demanding your own way? *"You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions"* (James 4:3).

Let us pray for you now:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, the only name by which we can be saved and heard. Lord, we lift up our sister to You, who is carrying heavy burdens of bitterness, disappointment, and unmet desires. First, we ask that You forgive her for any hate in her heart and any prayers that have been hindered by resentment. Cleanse her, Lord, and fill her with Your love and peace. Help her to release every grudge and trust You to bring justice in Your perfect timing.

Father, we ask that You realign her heart with Yours. Where she has been seeking her own will, teach her to seek Yours. Where she has doubted, build her faith. Where she has compared herself to others, help her to find contentment in You alone. Lord, we declare that You are her Provider, her Healer, and her Redeemer. You see her struggles with weight, debt, and loneliness, and we ask that You give her the strength and wisdom to walk in discipline and trust.

We pray for her workplace, that You would either open doors for promotion or lead her to a place where her gifts are valued and used for Your glory. We ask for godly friendships to enter her life—friends who will sharpen her, encourage her, and point her to Christ. We pray for her financial situation, that You would give her wisdom to manage what You’ve entrusted to her and provide opportunities to get out of debt.

Lord, if her desires for a home, a platform, or success are aligned with Your will, we ask that You bring them to pass. But if they are not, we pray that You would redirect her heart to what truly matters—Your Kingdom and righteousness. Above all, we ask that You draw her closer to Jesus, that she would find her worth, her hope, and her purpose in Him alone.

We rebuke every spirit of discouragement, doubt, and delay in Jesus’ name. We declare that her prayers are heard, and Your answers are on the way. Give her the patience to wait and the faith to believe that You are working all things together for her good.

In Jesus’ precious and powerful name we pray, Amen.
 
We hear you, dear friend, and we're here for you. It's clear that you've been carrying a heavy load for far too long, and it's okay to feel frustrated when it seems like nothing's changing. But remember, God sees you, He knows your heart, and He cares deeply about every situation you've mentioned.

First, let's talk about your bitterness and resentment. It's natural to feel this way when we've been hurt or disappointed, but holding onto these feelings can be like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. It's not healthy, and it's not what God wants for you. In Matthew 18:21-22, Peter asks Jesus, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?" Jesus answers, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times." That's a lot of forgiveness, isn't it? It's time to let go of that bitterness and trust that God will bring justice in His own time.

Next, about your desires for a new home, better job, or more friends. God wants the best for you, but remember, His ways are not always our ways. Sometimes, what we think is best for us might not align with His will. In Philippians 4:19, it says, "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." Trust that God knows what's best for you and that He will provide in His perfect timing.

Now, about your struggles with weight and debt. These are areas where discipline and wisdom are needed. In 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, we're reminded that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, and we should glorify God in them. So, let's ask God for strength and self-control in this area. And regarding debt, let's pray for wisdom in managing our finances and be willing to make sacrifices to honor God with our resources.

Lastly, about monetizing social media. It's great to have a platform, but remember, everything we do should bring glory to God. In Colossians 3:23-24, we're told to "work at whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men... Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters." So, let's ask God to help us use our platforms for His glory.

We don't know exactly what you're doing wrong, but we do know that God is faithful and just. He will answer your prayers in His perfect timing. So, let's keep trusting Him, keep praying, and keep seeking His will.

Now, let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today on behalf of our friend. Lord, we lift up their burdens to You - the bitterness, the disappointments, the unmet desires. We ask that You would heal their heart, fill them with Your love and peace, and help them to release every grudge. Help them to trust in You and to seek Your will above their own.

Lord, we ask that You would realign their heart with Yours. Where they've been seeking their own will, teach them to seek Yours. Where they've doubted, build their faith. Where they've compared themselves to others, help them to find contentment in You alone. Lord, we declare that You are their Provider, their Healer, and their Redeemer. You see their struggles, and we ask that You would give them the strength and wisdom to walk in discipline and trust.

Lord, we pray for their workplace, for godly friendships, and for their financial situation. We ask that You would provide opportunities for them to get out of debt and manage what You've entrusted to them wisely. Above all, we ask that You would draw them closer to Jesus, that they would find their worth, their hope, and their purpose in Him alone.

In Jesus' precious and powerful name, we pray, Amen.
