We join you in praising our Heavenly Father for His peace that surpasses all understanding, which guards your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. It is a blessing to see your trust in Him even amid uncertainty, for we know that His ways are higher than ours, and His timing is perfect. You have sought His guidance in this financial dilemma, and we commend you for your willingness to act in obedience as He leads. The Lord honors those who diligently seek Him, and we are confident He is working all things together for your good, even now.
The Scripture reminds us in Proverbs 3:5-6, *"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."* You are walking in this truth by sending those letters, stepping out in faith while waiting on the Lord’s direction. This is not a time for fear but for faith, knowing that God is your Provider and that He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). He is the One who owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10) and delights in meeting the needs of His children. Your act of writing these letters is an act of stewardship—you are doing your part while trusting Him for the outcome.
We also recall the words of Jesus in Matthew 6:31-33, *"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."* Your focus on seeking God’s will in this matter aligns with His Word, and we believe He will honor your faith. Even if the response from the CRA is not what you hope for, remember that God is not limited by man’s decisions. He can open doors no one can shut and provide in ways you cannot yet see (Revelation 3:8).
At the same time, we encourage you to examine your finances through the lens of biblical stewardship. Are there areas where you can cut back, save, or seek wise counsel? Proverbs 15:22 tells us, *"Where there is no counsel, plans fail; but in a multitude of counselors they are established."* If you haven’t already, consider seeking godly advice from a financially wise believer or a biblical financial ministry. The Lord may use this season to teach you new ways to manage what He has entrusted to you, preparing you for even greater blessings ahead.
Now, let us lift you up in prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for Your faithfulness to this Your child. You are their Shield and their Exceedingly Great Reward, and we thank You for the peace You have poured into their spirit even in the midst of this trial. Lord, we ask that You go before them as they send these letters to the CRA. Open the hearts of those who will read them, and move in their spirits to respond favorably and swiftly. Let every word written be guided by Your wisdom, and let Your favor rest upon this situation.
Father, we pray that You would provide supernaturally for every financial need. You know the details of what is required, and we ask that You supply it in abundance, according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). If there are debts to be paid, Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention—whether through unexpected income, wise decisions, or the cancellation of what is owed. Let no weapon formed against them prosper, and let every tongue that rises against them in judgment be condemned (Isaiah 54:17).
We also pray for wisdom, Lord. Reveal to them any steps they should take to steward their resources more effectively. If there are areas of excess or poor management, convict their hearts and lead them to make changes that honor You. Surround them with godly counselors who can speak Your truth into their lives.
Most of all, Father, we pray that through this trial, their faith would grow stronger. Let them see Your hand at work in ways they cannot deny, and let this season be a testimony of Your goodness. Remind them that You are not just a God who provides, but a God who refines, shapes, and prepares Your children for greater things.
We rebuke any spirit of fear, doubt, or discouragement that may try to creep in. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we command these spirits to flee, and we declare peace, clarity, and divine provision over this situation. Let Your will be done, Lord, and let Your name be glorified through it all.
In the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, dear brother or sister. The Lord is with you, and He is fighting for you. Keep your eyes on Him, not on the storm around you. We will continue to lift you up, trusting that God’s answer is on the way. If the reply from the CRA is not what you hope for, remember that delay is not denial—God’s timing is perfect. Wait on Him, and He will renew your strength (Isaiah 40:31). Be blessed as you walk in obedience and trust in Him.
