Request for rest, grace, eradication of debt, peace and renewal

I feel super defeated. It feels like each time I take steps forward, trying my best to do the right thing, a new blow is dealt.

I incurred debt while being unemployed for almost two years, and I have been steadily paying it off. I specifically paid one in full instead of settling for less money since the card was supposed to be reinstated. I received my confirmation letter that I no longer owe that debt, but when I called, I was told I wasn’t eligible for reinstatement due to misinformation. I have struggled for over a year to pay that high amount with the end goal in sight, only to find out it's a moot point.

I’m still being sued for a medical debt that should’ve been canceled. I'm grateful I was able to procure counsel, but everything is up in arms. I hope that since they now know I am represented, the opposing counsel will drop the suit. If not, I pray I win and can pay the lawyers for their work.

One of my primary sources of anxieties is losing housing since it almost happened twice while I was unemployed. There has been some rent gouging in the area and I’ve been told I can recoup the money, but with no line of credit, my actual credit fluctuating due to me paying it down and other factors, I cannot afford to get a hard pull for a new place. I am not trying to be greedy, and I could use the money, but not at the expense of messing up my living situation. I ask for prayer so I can clarify how to handle that situation.

I’m grateful to have my job, but it never seems straightforward. People on my team take for granted the resources at their disposal that I don't have. I spend 2x as long on things because I have to hunt down people over different departments and wait for them to respond, versus others who can have things automated. Yet, I am constantly compared and told that I am not meeting standards while I am doing various departments' work. Plus, the microaggressions every day and the digs become tiring. I am openly disrespected, yet I need this job, especially with student loans soon to be due and the job market as it is. Some practices are so off, yet they're allowed because those in charge are protected. There’s no point in anonymous surveys if we're going to discuss them in person and give feedback one by one. I don't get a chance to turn it off, I have to always be on the go, and I feel like burnout is circling. I can’t afford that if I ever get out of this hole.

I just want peace of mind, consistent sleep, and a reprieve. I want my bills covered and the opportunity to find me again. Maybe I can take a vacation and not feel guilty or ashamed that it should be spent on debt or that something bad is going to happen soon after. But most of all, it is to simply be seen and understood.

I know God is there for me, that He sees and hears all, but so many emotions are swirling. Sometimes, I’m just so angry, and other times, I'm defeated. I keep pushing because I know He has a plan for me, but I’m almost at my wits' end.
 
We hear the deep weariness in your heart, and we want you to know that God sees every tear, every struggle, and every effort you’ve made to walk in integrity—even when the world has dealt you unjust blows. The weight of debt, betrayal, relentless labor, and the fear of losing stability would crush anyone, but you are *not* abandoned. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). Let us remind you: your worth is not tied to your debt, your job performance, or the opinions of those who disregard your dignity. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and Jesus Himself bore your burdens at the cross so you wouldn’t have to carry them alone.

The enemy wants you to believe this cycle of defeat is endless, but Scripture declares that *no weapon formed against you shall prosper* (Isaiah 54:17). The financial betrayal you’ve faced—the debt paid in full only to be denied reinstatement, the medical debt resurfacing unjustly—these are not accidents. They are attacks meant to steal your peace and make you question God’s provision. But we serve a God who *restores what the locusts have eaten* (Joel 2:25). He is the God of justice, and He will not let your righteous efforts go unrewarded. Stand firm in this: *"The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still"* (Exodus 14:14). We pray He exposes every hidden corruption in these financial battles, that the medical debt lawsuit is dismissed in your favor, and that every cent wrongfully taken from you is returned *with interest*—not for greed, but as a testament to His faithfulness.

As for your housing fears, we understand the terror of instability. But remember: the same God who fed Elijah by ravens (1 Kings 17:6) and provided manna in the wilderness (Exodus 16:4) has *not* forgotten your address. We pray for divine wisdom as you navigate this—whether it’s clarity on recouping funds without risking your credit, or a supernatural door opening to affordable, stable housing. The Lord owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10); He is not limited by credit scores or rent gouging. Trust Him to provide *before* the crisis comes, not just in the midst of it.

Your workplace is a battleground, and the spiritual warfare there is real. The microaggressions, the unfair comparisons, the systemic dysfunction—these are not just "office politics." They are tools of the enemy to wear you down. But Scripture commands: *"Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good"* (Romans 12:21). We pray for supernatural endurance, that God would give you favor with those in authority (Proverbs 16:7), and that He would either *change the hearts* of those who mistreat you or *remove you* from that toxic environment in His perfect timing. If burnout is circling, it’s time to set boundaries where you can—even if it’s just carving out moments to breathe and remind yourself that your identity is in Christ, not your productivity.

You mentioned guilt over the idea of rest or vacation—*this is not from God*. Jesus Himself said, *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest"* (Matthew 11:28). Rest is not a reward for the debt-free; it is a *commandment* (Exodus 20:8-10). We pray the Lord breaks the lie that you must earn reprieve. He delights in giving good gifts to His children (Matthew 7:11), and sometimes the most radical act of faith is to *stop striving* and let Him provide.

Lastly, we must address the anger and defeat you’re feeling—these emotions are valid, but they must not become your master. Ephesians 4:26-27 warns: *"Be angry, and do not sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the devil."* The enemy will use bitterness to build a stronghold in your heart. We pray for the Holy Spirit to replace anger with *righteous indignation*—a fire that fuels prayer, not despair. And for the defeat? *"We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed"* (2 Corinthians 4:8-9). This season is *not* the end of your story.

**Let us pray together:**

Heavenly Father, we lift our sister before You, a warrior who has fought so hard yet feels the weight of every battle. Lord, we ask for *supernatural rest*—the kind that transcends sleep, the deep soul-rest that only You can give (Matthew 11:28-30). Break the cycle of sleepless nights and anxious thoughts. Replace her exhaustion with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).

We come against the spirit of defeat in Jesus’ name. You are the God who turns mourning into dancing (Psalm 30:11), and we declare that *this story is not over*. Every debt that was paid unjustly, every promise broken by man—Lord, we ask for Your justice. Expose the lies, reverse the wrongs, and let her testimony be that *You* fought for her when she could fight no more. Give her favor in the courtroom, wisdom with her finances, and a miraculous breakthrough in her housing situation. Let no weapon formed against her prosper (Isaiah 54:17).

At her job, Lord, we bind the spirits of oppression, comparison, and disrespect. If this is not where You want her long-term, open doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8). If she is to stay, give her *divine strategies* to navigate the dysfunction without absorbing the toxicity. Surround her with Your angels (Psalm 91:11) and let her work be *seen* and *valued* by those in authority.

Father, she longs to be understood—*You* understand. You collect every tear in a bottle (Psalm 56:8). Remind her that she is *seen*, that her labor is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58), and that joy is coming in the morning (Psalm 30:5). Break the guilt over rest, Lord. Teach her to receive Your gifts without shame.

Most of all, we pray she feels Your presence tangibly. When anger rises, let it drive her to her knees, not to despair. When defeat whispers, let Your Word roar louder: *"You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4).

We speak *renewal* over her mind, body, and spirit. Restore what has been stolen. Let this season of struggle birth a testimony so powerful that others will see Your hand and believe. In the mighty name of Jesus, our Provider, our Justice, and our Peace—*Amen.*

We're here with you, sister. We see the relentless battles you've faced, the debts that keep resurfacing, the housing instability, the workplace strife. It's overwhelming, we know. But remember, you're not alone in this fight. We're standing right here with you, and we're not going anywhere.

We're praying for supernatural rest to fill your soul, for justice to be served in your financial struggles, for wisdom and favor in your housing situation. We're binding the spirits of oppression at your workplace, and we're asking God to give you favor with those in authority. We're also praying for anger to be replaced with righteous indignation, and for defeat to be turned into dancing.

We want you to know that your worth is not tied to your debt, your job performance, or the opinions of others. You are fearfully and wonderfully made, and Jesus bore your burdens at the cross. Trust Him to provide before the crisis comes, not just in the midst of it.

Keep pushing, dear one. Joy comes in the morning. You are not alone. We're in this together, and we're not going anywhere. Keep praying, keep trusting, and let's continue to stand with you in this fight.

I want to start off with a praise report. God has brought me a long way. I am still in my apartment, and I have a job. And for that, I will be forever grateful because I know it is only through Him I was granted such grace. I have been trying to keep my head down and just focus on pushing...
