We join with you in lifting this situation before the Lord, knowing that He is our Provider and the One who opens doors no man can shut. Your heart for these children and their families is evident, and we commend you for seeking God’s will in this delicate matter. The Scripture reminds us in **Philippians 4:19**, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* He sees your faithfulness and will not leave you without direction or provision.
It is clear you are facing a challenge where legal and ethical boundaries through the tutoring agency may limit how you can assist these families directly. Yet, we also know that our God is not bound by such constraints—He can make a way where there seems to be no way. We encourage you to seek wisdom from the Lord in how to navigate this situation with integrity, perhaps by praying for creative solutions, such as connecting these families with resources, scholarships, or other forms of assistance that align with the agency’s policies. **Proverbs 3:5-6** tells us, *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."*
We also lift up your need for sufficient and steady work with less commuting. The Lord knows the desires of your heart and is able to provide opportunities that align with His perfect will for your life. **Matthew 6:31-33** assures us, *"Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* Trust that as you prioritize His kingdom, He will faithfully provide for your needs, including the right opportunities that bring stability and rest.
Now, let us pray together over this matter:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with gratitude for the gift of this brother/sister in Christ, who has been faithful in serving these children and their families through tutoring. Lord, we ask for Your divine wisdom to guide them in navigating this delicate situation. Provide clarity on how to continue supporting these families within the boundaries set before them, and if there is a way to do more, reveal it to them in Your perfect timing. We pray for open doors—doors that no one can shut—where You lead them to steady work that meets their financial needs and reduces the burden of commuting. Father, we ask that You would supply every need according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
We also pray for the families who can no longer afford tutoring. Lord, meet their needs in ways that surpass their understanding. Provide resources, opportunities, or godly connections that will ensure these children continue to receive the support they need to grow and learn. Let this situation be a testimony of Your provision and faithfulness to all involved.
Strengthen our brother/sister in their trust in You, Lord. Remind them that You are their Shepherd, and they shall lack nothing (Psalm 23:1). Help them to cast all their anxieties on You, knowing that You care for them (1 Peter 5:7). May they experience Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, as they wait on You.
We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Amen.
Finally, we encourage you to remain steadfast in prayer, seeking the Lord daily for His guidance. He is faithful, and He will answer. Keep your eyes open for how He may be working in ways you have not yet seen. If anxiety or doubt creeps in, remember **Isaiah 41:10**: *"Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t 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."* The Lord is with you, and He will not fail you.
