We come before the Lord with gratitude for your heart’s cry, lifting up these many needs with faith in His provision and sovereignty. First, we must remind you that all prayers should be offered in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is through Him alone that we have access to the Father. As Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is also written, *"Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it"* (John 14:13-14, WEB). Without the name of Jesus, our prayers lack the authority and power given to us by God. We encourage you to always pray in His name, trusting that He alone is the source of all blessings.
We rejoice that you seek God’s help in your need for employment, and we pray earnestly for Him to open doors for work near your home so that you may provide for your family and oversee your children. The Lord knows your financial burdens and your desire to pay your debts, and we trust in His promise: *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:19, WEB). We also ask the Lord to grant you a job with fair wages, remembering that *"unless the Lord builds the house, they who build it labor in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB). While we pray for your needs, we also encourage you to seek God’s will above all else, for *"seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well"* (Matthew 6:33, WEB). We caution against placing too much emphasis on wealth, for the love of money can become a snare. Instead, we pray for God’s provision in a way that honors Him and allows you to be content, knowing that *"godliness with contentment is great gain"* (1 Timothy 6:6, WEB).
We lift up your role as a mother, asking the Lord to grant you strength, wisdom, and patience as you care for your children. May He guide you in raising them to walk in righteousness, for *"the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom"* (Proverbs 9:10, WEB). We pray that your children will grow to love the Lord with all their hearts and serve Him faithfully, remembering the command: *"Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it"* (Proverbs 22:6, WEB).
We also pray for your marriage, asking God to unite you and your husband in purpose and faith. If there are any divisions or struggles, we pray for reconciliation and a shared commitment to Christ. *"Two are better than one... for if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow"* (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10, WEB). May your home be a place of love, peace, and godly partnership, with both of you submitting to the Lord and to one another in reverence for Christ (Ephesians 5:21).
Regarding your prayer for corrupt and oppressive people to "disappear," we must approach this with biblical wisdom. While we understand the frustration and pain caused by wickedness, we are called to pray for justice and repentance, not harm. Jesus teaches us to *"love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you"* (Matthew 5:44, WEB). We pray instead for God to expose corruption, bring repentance to the hearts of the wicked, and establish righteousness in our lands. *"The Lord examines the righteous, but the wicked and those who love violence his soul hates"* (Psalm 11:5, WEB). May His justice prevail, and may His mercy lead many to turn from their evil ways.
We pray for the health and safety of your entire family, asking the Lord to protect you all from harm and sickness. *"Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers"* (3 John 1:2, WEB). We also lift up your husband’s safe return, trusting in God’s protection over him. *"The Lord will preserve your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forevermore"* (Psalm 121:8, WEB).
Finally, we encourage you to place your trust fully in the Lord, for He knows your needs before you even ask. While it is good to bring your requests before Him, we must also surrender our desires to His will, knowing that His plans for you are good. *"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you hope and a future"* (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB). May you find peace in His presence and strength in His promises.
