Prayer for employment, a home and to be financially stable.

Disciple of Prayer
I had my own apartment 7 months ago and I had been renting for 4 years on my own. I became friends with a girl from church and she came and visited me at my apartment and she wept tears when she saw my apartment, comparing herself to me and saying that I have it all but she didn't know the sacrifices I had to make to have my apartment, working real hard for it. 2 weeks after, things got really bad at work and I had to resign for my mental well-being but before I resigned I had asked my sister in a different city if I could stay with her until I find employment and she said do what you need too, I am here for you, to support you, so because she gave me that support over the phone I had felt I could count on her and I placed my resignation but it was the biggest mistake I ever made. I relocated to live with my sister and my mom was with me so my sister said we must help out with her new born baby and we said okay. The first two weeks it was okay staying with her and her family but after that they would complain about basic necessities and mom and I weren't allowed to use the toilet at night and we would only eat once or sometimes twice a day because of the fear of her picking on what she does, I had done a freelance job and bought a few things for the house and I told mom she and I will manage with whatever I could buy, even if it was bread and butter and mom was happier to eat that then hear words about food. So a month passes and things are getting worse, my sister comes from work everyday in a bad mood and takes it out on my mother and me and we had to keep quiet because we were staying in her house. The thing about my sister is she's never took accountability for anything she does, she feels like she is the one that's victimized but it's not true at all, even growing up she would hit me in my sleep and I've had issues with her in the past but before we moved to her place, my mom assured me that my sister had changed and she really wants to help, little did we know what we were getting ourselves into. So now we are in month 2 of staying with her and I graduate back in the other city that I'm from and since then she starts to act faulty with me and doesn't talk to me, so once mom and I get back to her house she starts to scream at my mother and I couldn't take it anymore and I told her to have some respect and she starts to use vulgar terms at me and in the heat of the moment I said "I left my job because you gave me hope, you shouldn't have pretended then I would have never left" then she was like going to hit me for saying that but in a way I feel like she should have just been hone from the beginning and said that she can't keep mom and I, don't call us all the way to an unknown city where we cannot even fend for ourselves or get help. So she was going on for herself and she is like picking on me and saying I don't help so I told her when she's at work, I'm the one taking care of her newborn during the day because my mom can't do it by herself as she is old now and doesn't have the energy to care for a small baby so the baby did get very close to me and she would pull the child from me and during the argument I told her she comes home in such a bad mood that we are scared to even move or say anything to her and she was so oblivious and didn't accept what she did and tells my brother in law that we are lying but she was bullying us and emotionally abusing us. So while all this is going on, she takes the child and goes out of the house and it was so clear that she didn't want us there so I had to use my credit card and book emergency flights for mom and I back to where we are originally from. We didn't know where we were going to stay, my mom messaged my aunt and uncle and they said we can stay with them until I find work and we are currently staying here with them but it's of course not the same as staying in your own place, like my aunt has her moments of being nice then she sometimes behaves differently but mom and I are way better off staying here then with my sister. At least here they don't pick on anything and they are so appreciative even if we help to clean which mom does a lot here. My sister blocked us from her phone and told us to not put pictures of her baby up and I love the child so much, she hasn't even apologized and still feels like she is right and she bad mouthed me at her company that she works at, I used to work there a long time ago and I fixed her that job, they wanted to hire me but she wasn't working and I vouched for her. I've always been giving her whatever was meant for me, because I wanted her to know that she could always count on me but she has never once willingly done good for me or helped me. And even now she was bad mouthing my mom and I to my cousin sister that's my aunts daughter, it's like she doesn't want us to have a place to live and okay leave me out but how can one treat their own mother that way? I apologize for this long explaination, I had to give you a back story of how I'm currently without a home. Please can you pray for me to have strength to not give up, pray for me to receive a job that will set me free financially so that I can get mom and I out own place to live and I can further my education. My dream is to own my own house for my mother and I and to be financially free and stable. I do feel a lot of hurt and pain from everything I've been through but I keep reminding myself that Jesus went through so much for us all, and this life I have does have purpose but at times I do feel overwhelmed. My aunt knows that in the new year I'm getting a job and she has a new granddaughter so I'm sure she would want to decorate this room mom and I are staying in because a lot if the babies stuff is here and I just don't want mom and I to ever be without a home so my prayer is to receive a good job in the new year with a good work environment, all I want, is to take care of my mom and give her a good life and give myself a good life, to make myself happy again, to have peace. Thanks so much for your prayers.
 
We hear your heart, and we lift you up before the Lord with deep compassion. The pain, betrayal, and instability you’ve endured are heavy burdens, but we stand with you in faith, believing that God sees every tear and hears every cry. Your strength in the midst of such hardship is a testament to the resilience He has placed within you, and we declare that He will not abandon you now. The Word reminds us in Psalm 34:18-19, *"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."*

First, we must address the brokenness in your family with truth and love. What your sister has done—emotional abuse, manipulation, and the refusal to take accountability—is sinful and contrary to God’s design for family. Scripture is clear in Ephesians 6:2-3, *"Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with a promise: "that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth."* Your sister’s treatment of your mother is a grievous violation of this command, and we rebuke the spirit of division, selfishness, and unrepentance in her life. We pray that God would soften her heart, open her eyes to the harm she has caused, and lead her to genuine repentance. However, we also recognize that you and your mother had to flee for your safety and well-being, and we affirm that this was a necessary act of wisdom. Proverbs 22:3 says, *"A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it."*

Your dream of providing a stable home for yourself and your mother is noble and aligns with God’s heart for the family. In Psalm 68:5-6, we read, *"A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in his holy habitation. God sets the solitary in families."* You are not alone in this desire, for God Himself is the ultimate provider and defender. We pray that He would open doors of employment for you—work that is not only financially rewarding but also honors Him and brings peace to your soul. Proverbs 16:3 reminds us, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* Trust that as you seek Him first, He will direct your steps toward the right opportunities.

We also lift up your financial struggles and the fear of being without a home. The enemy would love to keep you in a place of anxiety and scarcity, but God’s Word declares in Philippians 4:19, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* We rebuke the spirit of lack and declare that God will provide for you in ways that exceed your expectations. Your current living situation, though not ideal, is a temporary refuge, and we pray that God would give you favor with your aunt and uncle, that they would continue to show you kindness and grace. However, we also pray for your own place—a home where you and your mother can live in peace, dignity, and security. Jeremiah 29:11 assures us, *"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,” says Yahweh, “thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future."*

The hurt and betrayal you’ve experienced are deep, but we encourage you to guard your heart against bitterness. Hebrews 12:15 warns, *"Looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it."* We pray that God would heal your wounds and replace the pain with His peace. Forgiveness does not mean excusing your sister’s actions, but it does mean releasing the burden of anger to God so that it does not hinder your own walk with Him. Colossians 3:13 says, *"Bear with one another, and forgive each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do."*

Finally, we must emphasize the foundation of your faith. You mentioned Jesus and His sacrifice, and we rejoice that you recognize His love for you. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your life fully to Him, repenting of any sin and trusting in His finished work on the cross for your salvation. Romans 10:9 says, *"If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."* Salvation is not earned by works but is a free gift of grace, and we pray that you would walk in the fullness of that truth.

Let us pray for you now:

Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our sister in Christ, lifting up every burden she carries. Lord, You see her heart, her struggles, and her dreams, and we ask that You would move mightily on her behalf. Father, we declare that she is not forgotten, nor is she forsaken. You are her provider, her defender, and her peace.

We pray for employment, Lord. Open doors that no man can shut, and lead her to a job that not only meets her financial needs but also aligns with Your purpose for her life. Give her favor with employers, wisdom in her decisions, and perseverance in her search. We rebuke the spirit of delay and declare that breakthrough is coming in Jesus’ name.

Father, we ask for a home—a place of safety, rest, and stability for her and her mother. You know the desires of her heart, and we trust that You will provide in Your perfect timing. Until then, give her and her mother grace in their current living situation, and let Your peace guard their hearts.

Heal the wounds of betrayal, Lord. Where there is pain, bring Your comfort. Where there is bitterness, bring Your forgiveness. Where there is fear, bring Your courage. Remind her daily that You are with her, that You have a plan for her life, and that Your love never fails.

We pray for her sister, Father. Soften her heart, convict her of her sin, and lead her to repentance. Restore what has been broken in their relationship, if it is Your will, but above all, let Your justice and mercy prevail.

Strengthen our sister’s faith, Lord. Help her to trust You more deeply, to lean on You in every circumstance, and to walk in the fullness of Your promises. May she find her joy and peace in You alone.

We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the name above every name, the One who died and rose again so that we might have life abundantly. Amen.
 
We're here for you, and we're sorry to hear about the struggles you've been going through. It's understandable to feel overwhelmed and hurt by the situation with your sister. We want to encourage you to keep your heart open to forgiveness, as holding onto bitterness can only cause more harm to you in the long run. Remember that Jesus loves you deeply and has been through much more than you can imagine. Trust in Him, and know that He is with you every step of the way.

We pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We lift up our sister in Christ to You today, Lord. She is feeling overwhelmed, hurt, and uncertain about her future. We ask that You would comfort her, heal her wounds, and give her the strength to forgive. Help her to trust in You and to know that You have a plan for her life.

Lord, we ask for a job for her - one that meets her financial needs and brings her peace and fulfillment. Open the right doors for her and give her favor with employers. We also pray for a stable home for her and her mother, a place where they can live in peace and security.

Heal the broken relationships in her family, Lord. Soften the hearts of those who have hurt her, and bring them to repentance. Restore what has been broken, if it is Your will.

Strengthen her faith, Lord. Help her to trust in You more deeply and to find her joy and peace in You alone. Give her the courage to face whatever comes her way, knowing that You are always with her.

In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
 
I prayed that God in Jesus' name will answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God Loves You. Thank You Jesus!!!

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
