We join with you in prayer to Jesus and we thank you for inviting us to pray together, for we know that where two or three are gathered in His name He is there among us. We hear the weight you are carrying this week, the strain of having little to get through on, the leaking house in bad weather, the unsettled atmosphere where people who do not belong linger for immoral reasons, and the anxiety about stepping out in self employment, about your physical strength and about speaking up as a whistleblower. We bring all of this before our Father in Jesus name, for it is only through Him that we have access to God and there is no other name by which we are saved, and we are grateful you have come to Him.
We are encouraged that you want to do what is right even when it is hard, and that you spoke up because you were worried about who would get hurt. The Lord sees this and He honors those who love truth and seek to protect others. Do not be anxious, for God says Be not afraid, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41:10. And we remember that the righteous are bold as a lion. Proverbs 28:1. When half turn away and half condemn you for speaking, remember that speaking the truth in love is pleasing to God. Ephesians 4:15. We pray God will be your defender and shield, that He will guard your reputation and your safety, and that He will bring justice in His perfect time, for He says Vengeance belongs to me, I will repay, says the Lord. Romans 12:19.
We also lift up your living situation to the Lord. It is grievous to have no peace at home, to have rain coming into the house, and to feel unsafe because an unsavoury person who does not live there is taking advantage while the landlord does not care. We pray for your protection and for God to be your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1. We pray He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty and say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust. Psalm 91:1-2. We ask the Lord to convict those who linger for immoral reasons and to cause them to depart, for we are called to come out from among them, and be separate, says the Lord. 2 Corinthians 6:17 and to flee sexual immorality. 1 Corinthians 6:18. We pray the Lord will move upon your landlord to take responsibility with care, and if not, that the Lord will open a more settled and safe dwelling for you in His provision, for My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19.
We pray for your daily needs and for your work. We thank God with you for the opportunity for self employment and for the desire to work productively, and we ask for His wisdom and establishment upon it. Commit your deeds to the Lord, and your plans shall succeed. Proverbs 16:3 and Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men. Colossians 3:23. We ask for wisdom as you navigate this, for If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. James 1:5. We pray tomorrow you will be able to wake early, make your walk to town even in the weather safely, and do productive work, and that the Lord will help you catch up on all you are lagging behind in, communication, study and other work. We cast your burden on the Lord, for He says Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you. Psalm 55:22 and In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7.
We thank God for your successful physical rehabilitation earlier and for the honest and kind neuromuscular therapist who will do you a programme for a kind and honest price. We pray the Lord will provide the means for you to continue when the time is right and will strengthen your body day by day, for He gives power to the weak. He increases the strength of him who has no might. Isaiah 40:29 and those who wait for the Lord will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31. We pray your exercises now will bear fruit and that God will be your strength, for God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26.
You confessed your anger and words spoken in anger and your fear when you want to trust God, and we gently remind you that confession brings forgiveness. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9. Do not be condemned, for God understands how hard this is. Be angry, and do not sin. Do not let the sun go down on your wrath, and do not give place to the devil. Ephesians 4:26-27. We pray the Lord will help you to release anger and fear and to trust Him more each day, for God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self control. 2 Timothy 1:7 and Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6.
So together we pray, Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son. We lift up our dear brother and sister to You, You know their need, their leaking home, their small provision for the week, their anxiety about work and about speaking truth. Lord, be their provider, be their shelter from the rain and from those who do wrong. Command the unsavoury influence to leave and bring peace to that house. Give wisdom and favor in self employment, establish the work of their hands and let it provide honestly and sufficiently. Give strength to their body, bless the exercises and the therapist, and provide for further treatment in Your timing. Guard their heart from fear and anger, forgive what was spoken in anger, and fill them with Your peace that passes understanding. Grant them early rising tomorrow, safety on the walk to town, protection in the weather, and grace to catch up on all that has fallen behind. Let tomorrow and the days ahead be ordered by You, and help them to seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness, trusting that all these things will be added. Matthew 6:33. Let them not be anxious for tomorrow, for each day has enough trouble of its own, but let them rest in You today. Matthew 6:34. We ask all this in the mighty and merciful name of Jesus, amen.
