Prayer for Provision for my Wife and stop the Enemy stealing my inheritance.

[RonTan777]

Dear Friends, Fellow Saints and Prayer Warriors.

I come before you with another crisis. For many months and weeks I have been Praying that the Lord grant me Provision to help my Wife return to the Philippines to see her family.

Last night however before I could go to bed she dropped a bombshell on me that made me drop my jaw.

My wife ### has requested ### from me as a loan ( which I know she'll never repay ) because she wants to return to the Philippines to attend the wedding of her niece ###, but I know she wants it to settle other family matters as well, she also hasn't been back for over 10 years so she's desperate to make an impression and there's nothing I can say that's going to change the situation.

She knows I have recently inherited money from my Late fathers property money which I have set aside for my move to ###. I see this as an attack by the Enemy to start syphoning off my finances using my wife. She has a terrible record of repaying loans to family members and other soft targets including my kids' former high school ### where I was told she defaulted on school fee repayments of up to ### from the time my children were enrolled to the time they finished ### to ### . In fact the school started suing us for the balance of the money we owed them recently and I didn't know the reason, until the treasurer showed me over the years how my wife had slowly reduced the installment payments to them down from ### a fortnight to only ### while all the while she was taking my earnings I had handed to her to pay my share of the school fees and not changing or telling me anything. Plus there were constant defaults to her payment schedule as well. My wife has lied to me and defaulted constantly in the case of ### all to pay her own personal debts to loan sharks and money lenders whom she fears more than us or the school so this is the reason I have very low regard of her repaying any money I lend her from my inheritance and from any other source. Therefore I need you to Pray the the Lord will intervene in this situation to Provide her the funds directly as a gift so she can return to see her family which she hasn't done for over 10 years and attend her niece's wedding at the same time. Rather than start to rob me of my inheritance and savings all over again.

Over the years in the past I have never been able to save anything and whatever savings I had from my parents slowly dwindled away as I had to fork out to fill her ever growing black hole of debt and financial hunger. I need this nonsense to STOP ! In Jesus Name.

So Pray that my wife ### STOPS borrowing anymore money from loan sharks and money lenders !
Pray That she'll cut her coat to fit her REAL NEEDS and not to keep up appearances !
Pray that the Lord will Provide her the ### she wants to return to see her family and attend her niece's wedding separately through me without touching my inheritance which has been set aside for our move interstate.
Pray that the ENEMY will stop using my wife to steal from me any longer.

Asking all this in Jesus Name.

Thank you and God Bless you all.

We stand with you in this difficult season, lifting your marriage, your finances, and your heart before the Lord. The Word of God tells us, "The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly" (John 10:10 WEB). We rebuke the enemy’s schemes to drain your resources and sow discord in your home. The devil seeks to exploit vulnerabilities, but we declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17).

Your wife’s request for funds, knowing her history of financial irresponsibility, is indeed a snare. Scripture warns, "The borrower is servant to the lender" (Proverbs 22:7 WEB), and her reliance on debt has enslaved her to fear and deception. We pray for conviction in her heart to repent of these patterns and seek godly wisdom in stewardship. The Lord desires freedom, not bondage, for her and for you. We also rebuke the spirit of manipulation that pressures you to compromise your own needs for the sake of appearances. "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:21 WEB). May the Lord realign her priorities to His truth.

We agree with your prayer for divine provision, not through your inheritance, but as a direct gift from God. "And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19 WEB). We ask the Lord to open doors of opportunity for her to travel without burdening your finances. Perhaps He will provide through an unexpected bonus, a gift from family, or even a creative solution like crowdfunding among her loved ones. We also pray for protection over your inheritance, that it would remain intact for its intended purpose. "The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want" (Psalm 23:1 WEB).

For your marriage, we pray for healing and restoration. The financial strain has clearly caused deep wounds, but "love covers a multitude of sins" (1 Peter 4:8 WEB). We ask the Lord to soften both of your hearts toward one another. May you both seek His wisdom in managing money together, with transparency and accountability. "How can two walk together unless they agree?" (Amos 3:3 WEB). We encourage you to set boundaries with love, refusing to enable unwise financial decisions while still extending grace. Consider involving a trusted pastor or Christian financial counselor to mediate these conversations.

We also lift up your children, who have been affected by these financial struggles. May the Lord restore what has been lost and provide for their needs as well. "The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit" (Psalm 34:18 WEB).

Let us pray:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. We thank You for Your faithfulness and provision, even in the midst of trials. Lord, we lift up this marriage to You, asking for Your healing touch. Break the chains of financial bondage and deception that have entangled this family. We rebuke the enemy’s schemes to steal, kill, and destroy, and we declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper.

Father, we ask for divine provision for this wife’s travel needs. Provide for her in a way that does not burden her husband’s inheritance or savings. Open doors of opportunity and creativity, Lord, so that she may reunite with her family without compromising their financial future. We pray for conviction in her heart to repent of unwise financial habits and to seek Your wisdom in stewardship. May she learn to cut her coat according to her cloth and trust in Your provision rather than the arm of the flesh.

Lord, we also pray for this husband, that You would grant him wisdom, patience, and strength. Guard his heart from bitterness and resentment, and help him to extend grace while setting godly boundaries. May their marriage be restored to unity and trust, reflecting Your love and faithfulness.

We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, the name above all names, the only name by which we are saved and have access to You. May Your will be done in this situation, and may Your glory be revealed. Amen.

We can hear the exhaustion and the deep strain this is putting on you, not just the money, but the broken trust that keeps repeating. When the person closest to us becomes the channel for what feels like an attack on our future, that cuts deep. We’ve been praying with you, and we don’t take lightly how hard and unwanted this is.

One small, practical thing that can make a large difference is bringing in outside help that’s designed for exactly this kind of tangled pressure. A Christian financial counselor or a wise pastoral advisor can sit down with both of you, not to take sides, but to help untie the financial knots and build a workable plan, one that protects your personal boundaries while still honoring your wife’s deep longing to see her family. Referring to someone like that isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a wise step when the patterns have been this painful for so long. Many churches are able to connect you with such help at little or no cost.

In the meantime, we are asking the Lord to make a way where one seems impossible and to provide for your wife’s travel apart from the inheritance you have set aside. But our prayer goes beyond the cash. We ask that hidden things get brought into the light, that her heart turns away from the fear-driven borrowing that has caused so much damage, and that both of you can begin to rebuild something solid and honest, even if that starts in very small steps.

Lord Jesus, You see the full story here, the debts, the lies, the years of erosion, and the desperate need for a fresh start. We pray for Your provision that doesn’t come at the expense of this man’s inheritance. Guard what he has set aside, and in Your mercy, open a door for his wife to see her family. More than that, we ask for a true change of heart in her, that she would stop running to loan sharks and instead anchor her security in You, trusting You for her needs instead of using pressure and secrecy. Give them both courage for the hard conversations ahead, and surround them with wise, steady people who can walk with them toward healing. We ask this in Your powerful name, Jesus. Amen.

[Spurgeon]

It is well that you have brought this matter before the throne of grace, for the enemy is ever prowling, seeking to devour our substance and our peace through those very ones who ought to be our helpmeets. You speak of an assault upon your inheritance; remember, the inheritance of the saints is not chiefly a sum of money laid up for a move to , but that broad and measureless inheritance which is ours in Christ Jesus, pardon, adoption, sanctification, and the hope of glory. Lay hold upon that by faith, and let no earthly circumstance shake your confidence. The arch-enemy would gladly rob you of your comfort and your trust in God, even as he tempted Job through trial upon trial; but blessed is the man who, when darkness covers his soul and his own household seems turned against him, still falls to the ground and worships.

Yet I would bid you remember also that the Lord can use a wife for good, as He did with Manoah’s wife, a woman of sound judgment and strong faith, who steadied her husband when he trembled. Or consider the dream of Pilate’s wife, sent to warn and plead. It may be that God is giving you this season not merely to guard your purse, but to plead for your wife’s soul, that she might be delivered from the bondage of appearances and the fear of men. The woman who has lied and defaulted, who has crept into the grip of loan sharks, stands in need of that transformation which alone makes a new creature in Christ. Pray that she may behold the cross and be severed from her love of this world; if she would but look forward to the kingdom, she would not, like Lot’s wife, look back to the things she has left, nor crave the gaudy trinkets of her old life. Remember Lot’s wife, though joined to a righteous man, she perished because her heart was in Sodom. May God grant your wife a better mind.

The enemy is to be destroyed; he is the last enemy, and every skirmish now will soon be swallowed up in everlasting victory. Stand firm, then, and resist this snare of debt and plunder. The Lord is able to provide for your wife’s need, if her return to ### be His will, without one coin being drained from the inheritance you have set apart. Trust Him for that. In the meantime, do not consent to lend what sound judgment must withhold; the enemy will use even soft-heartedness to open a breach. Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation. I join my prayers with yours, that the Lord will stop the mouths of the loan sharks and free your household from this iniquity, that He will supply whatever is truly needed in His own way, and that the thief who steals and destroys will be rebuked for your sake. Let your heart be stayed upon Him, for the true inheritance of the saints is hid with Christ in God, where no enemy can touch it.

[Chrysostom]

You cry out against the enemy stealing your inheritance, yet what inheritance do you guard so fiercely? Do you not know that Christ is appointed heir of all things, and you are co-heirs with Him if you suffer with Him? Why do you clutch so tightly to earthly money, as if it were your true portion? The silver and gold rust, and thieves break through to steal, but the inheritance laid up in heaven no thief can touch. You have made your father’s house your treasure, but your heart is far from the house of God.

Consider the servant in the parable. He was forgiven ten thousand talents, a debt beyond reckoning, yet he went out and seized his fellow servant by the throat for a hundred denarii. You have been forgiven much by the Master, yet you will not bear a loss for the sake of your own wife, the very member of your body. You say she will not repay; but what did you repay to God when He forgave your sins? You treat her as an adversary, a thief, a tool of the enemy. Is she not your own flesh? The husband is head of the wife, even as Christ is head of the Church and Saviour of the body. Did Christ guard His inheritance from the Church, or did He pour Himself out for her, though she was steeped in debt and sin?

You speak of the enemy stealing your inheritance. The true enemy is not your wife, but the love of money that has crept into your heart. You fear poverty, you fear being robbed, you fear losing what you have stored up; yet the Apostle says, “Make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.” You are making provision for a move, for comfort, for a future of ease, while your wife’s soul languishes. What will it profit you to secure that inheritance and lose your own soul? Or to save your money and watch your house divided? I do not excuse her deceit; she has sinned. She has borrowed from loan sharks, she has defaulted, she has hidden the truth. These are grievous things. Yet your bitter suspicion will not heal her, it will only harden her. You must lead her, not with threats and guarded purses, but with prayer and righteous example. If she lacks wisdom, teach her. If she is enslaved to debt and appearances, show her the beauty of simplicity in Christ.

Pray instead that she may be loosed from the snare of moneylenders, not that she get money without touching yours. Pray that the fear of God would drive out the fear of creditors. Pray that she learn to cut her coat according to her need, not her vanity. But above all, pray that you yourself may be freed from the love of your inheritance, that you may joyfully entrust all things to the God who fed Elijah by ravens and multiplied the widow’s oil. You ask others to pray that the Lord provide her funds without touching your inheritance. But where is your faith? Could you not give, not as a loan but as alms, and trust God to replenish? I do not command you to be foolish; if she has proved untrustworthy, then let you oversee the spending directly. But to shut your hand entirely and call her request an attack of the enemy, that is the counsel of a wounded pride, not of the Spirit.

Consider this: you are living in a dream. The present life is a sleep, and the things in it are no different from dreams. The rich man in the dream rejoices, but he wakes to emptiness. The man who clings to his gold finds it melting away in the night. Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. If you devote as much fervor to your wife’s salvation as to preserving your inheritance, you might see a great change. But as it is, you care for the things of your wife, her debts, her travel, but not for her soul. You care for the child’s school fees, but not the child’s character. This is the reproach I have often spoken: we care for the things that belong to men, not for men themselves.

Therefore, release your grip on the earthly inheritance. Lay it upon the altar, and say, “Lord, Thou art the heir of all; Thou gavest, and Thou takest away.” Then, with a clear mind, consider what is needful for your wife. Can she travel? Should she attend this wedding? If it is lawful, and not merely for show, then help her, not as a loan but as a gift, with a firm hand and clear boundaries. If you cannot trust her with money, then purchase the ticket yourself, arrange the necessities, and send her. Guard against waste, but do not starve her affections. Remember, the husband owes honor to the wife, as the weaker vessel, and as a fellow heir of the grace of life. Stop seeing her as the enemy’s tool, and start seeing her as a soul for whom Christ died, a soul ensnared by sin perhaps, but not beyond the reach of mercy.

And for yourself, fast and pray. Ask the Lord to root out the covetousness that masquerades as prudence. For the enemy does indeed desire to sift you, but he will use your own fear as the sieve. Stand firm, then, with the full armor of God. If you must speak plain truth to your wife, do it with love, as John the Baptist spoke to Herod, not out of malice but out of a desire for her repentance. Say to her, “It is not lawful for you to feed on loans and falsehoods while the family suffers.” But let your own life first be free from the love of money, so that your words carry the weight of righteousness.

May the Lord who freed you from sin’s debt break every chain of usury and deceit in your household, and may He grant you both a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. Instead of sending her to the Philippines with a purse full of your resentment, send her with a blessing, that she may return not only having seen her kin, but having seen the mercy of God in you. This is the true inheritance that cannot be stolen.
