We understand the heavy burden of debt and the distress it brings, especially when it affects someone as dear as your mother. The Word of God reminds us in Proverbs 22:7, *"The rich rules over the poor. The borrower is servant to the lender."* Debt can feel like a chain, but we serve a God who specializes in breaking chains and providing supernatural provision. However, we must also remember that God often works through our obedience, wisdom, and diligence—not just miraculous intervention. While we pray for divine help, we encourage you and your mother to seek godly counsel on managing finances biblically, as Scripture teaches us in Proverbs 21:5, *"The plans of the diligent surely lead to profit; and everyone who is hasty surely rushes to poverty."*
It is also important to note that your request did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. There is no other name by which we can be saved, nor is there any other name by which we can approach God in prayer. As it is written in John 14:6, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* And in Acts 4:12, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* If you or your mother do not yet have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we urge you to repent of your sins and place your faith in Him alone for salvation. Without faith in Christ, prayers are empty, and eternal life is unattainable. But with Christ, all things are possible—including financial restoration.
Let us also consider whether there are unconfessed sins, poor stewardship, or unwise financial decisions that may have contributed to this situation. Proverbs 13:11 warns, *"Wealth gained dishonestly dwindles, but he who gathers by hand makes it grow."* If there has been any financial mismanagement, dishonesty, or reliance on worldly systems rather than trusting God, now is the time for repentance. We are not saying this is the case, but it is wise to examine the heart, as Scripture commands in 2 Corinthians 13:5: *"Test your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves."*
With that said, we will lift your mother’s situation before the Lord, asking for His mercy, provision, and wisdom. We pray that if there has been any financial sin, God would convict and lead to repentance. We also pray that He would provide a godly solution—whether through unexpected income, wise budgeting, debt restructuring, or even a helper as you’ve requested. But let us always remember that our ultimate trust must be in God, not in man. Psalm 37:25 declares, *"I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread."*

**Our Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this dear sister and her mother to Your throne of grace. Lord, You are Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, and nothing is too difficult for You. We ask for Your mercy upon this family, that You would open doors no man can shut and provide supernatural breakthrough in their finances.
Father, if there has been any financial mismanagement, greed, dishonesty, or reliance on worldly systems rather than trusting in You, we ask that You would convict and lead to repentance. Cleanse their hands and hearts, Lord, and teach them Your ways of stewardship. Help them to walk in wisdom, diligence, and integrity, as Your Word commands.
We pray for divine intervention in settling this debt—whether through unexpected income, a godly helper, or a miraculous provision. But even more, Lord, we ask that You would guide them into financial freedom through Your principles. Give them wisdom to budget, save, and seek counsel if needed. Break the spirit of poverty and lack, and replace it with Your abundance and blessing.
We rebuke any spiritual strongholds of fear, anxiety, or hopelessness in Jesus’ name. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds. Remind them that You are their Shepherd, and they shall not want (Psalm 23:1).
Father, we also pray that through this trial, their faith would grow stronger. Let them testify of Your goodness and provision, that others may see and glorify Your name. We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is worthy of all praise. Amen.

We encourage you to seek godly financial counsel, perhaps through your local church or a trusted Christian financial advisor. Avoid the temptation to seek quick fixes, such as loans with high interest or unethical means, as these often lead to greater bondage. Instead, trust in the Lord’s timing and provision. As you wait on Him, meditate on Philippians 4:19: *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* Stay faithful in tithing and giving, even in lack, for God honors a cheerful giver (2 Corinthians 9:7).
If your mother is overwhelmed, remind her of Matthew 6:33: *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* Her primary focus should be on honoring God in all things, and He will take care of the rest. We will continue to stand with you in prayer, believing for God’s perfect will to be done in this situation.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have. God bless me to prosper, walk in excellent health, and never stop growing in the love, grace, and knowledge of Christ Jesus. God bless me to know You in truth, fall in love with You with all my heart, mind, soul, body, and strength and never fall out of love with You. Bless me to have an ever growing closer stronger, more intimate relationship with You. Bless me with the love, desire, strength, and the spirit of obedience to always delight myself in You, seek first Your kingdom, Your righteousness, and to always respect and obey You. Bless me to trust You with all my heart, acknowledge You in all my ways, and lean not to my own understanding.
