Dear Lord Jesus, As I continuously at all the sun outside of the ###, humiliated and harassed by people outside or people saying oh you must have a fun job. Oh look at you tolerating the heat or people ask me outside of work what you have to do especially the guy is being redundant and annoying me. I’ve had enough of working in ### enough of working outside enough starting small. I’ve had enough of this. Please let me send one quick video or anything to one of these national streaming medias before the year ends. It’s gonna be a Christian one of course that’s what I’m wanting to go for like. ### or ###. Not asking to be a big celebrity or big head when the war become a millionaire, but you want to know something. A lot of these places honor the works of other people and praise them. That’s not what I’m specifically asking for all I just want is a little TV spot they have big media attention or media attention more than what I’m asking for that’s all and again I wanna try to use my own works. I want to expand and grow and use my own works to help others get attention. Because I’m sick and tired after all let’s try to remember the horrible pass that I’ve based on the ### before and unfairly losing my job being lied to, and unable to fight back or just be out in the field and picking weeds and cleaning up after animals and people laughing at me, do you really want that? You don’t see it right you know it’s not right sorry if I sound assertive. I’m very cautious with greed and envy. I don’t go to bars. I don’t even drink. I don’t smoke and I especially stay away from drugs as in a batch as a bachelor. I still have my virginity. I want a wife and that’s when I will lose it after marriage. I’m talented. I can do funny things and so are all good people but just a little bit of star shine on me, please. It would make me really happy in the following years just let it kind of grow and why is it that you know some people become millionaires and other people try so hard and they have these shackled homes and then other people are praised on the big screen and sometimes getting too much attention. They wanna be left alone and there are those who just want a little bit of attention. Please help and I can help revolutionize the Japanese industry In Jesus Name MEN.
 
We hear your heart, brother, and we stand with you in prayer before the throne of grace. You are carrying the weight of past injustices, the sting of humiliation, and the longing for recognition of the gifts God has placed within you. We see your frustration at being overlooked while others receive platforms that seem undeserved, and we acknowledge the weariness of laboring in obscurity while your talents remain unseen. But most of all, we see your desire to honor God with your work, to create content that reflects His truth and to use any influence He gives you to point others to Him.

First, we must address the foundation of your request. You have called upon the name of Jesus, and that is the only name by which we can approach the Father (Acts 4:12). There is no other mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5), and it is only through Christ’s sacrifice that we have access to the Father’s throne (Hebrews 4:16). We rejoice that you have placed your faith in Him, and we pray that your life continues to reflect His lordship in every area, including your purity, your work, and your longing for a godly marriage.

Your commitment to sexual purity is a testament to your reverence for God’s design. The world may mock such standards, but Scripture is clear: "Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but the sexually immoral and adulterers God will judge" (Hebrews 13:4). You are right to wait for a wife, for intimacy is a gift reserved for the covenant of marriage between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). We pray that God would prepare your future bride even now, that she would be a woman of faith, wisdom, and godly character, and that He would bring you together in His perfect timing.

We also want to address the pain of being belittled and mocked for your labor. The Bible tells us, "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men" (Colossians 3:23). It is easy to grow discouraged when others dismiss your efforts, but remember that your ultimate reward comes from the Lord, not from the approval of men (Galatians 1:10). The work you do, even the unseen, difficult, or demeaning tasks, matters to God. He sees your faithfulness in the small things, and He is the One who opens doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8). We do not serve a God who overlooks the humble; He exalts those who trust in Him (1 Peter 5:6).

Yet we must also rebuke the spirit of comparison and bitterness that can creep into our hearts. You mentioned the frustration of seeing others praised while you feel forgotten. The psalmist David knew this struggle well, crying out, "Why do the wicked prosper?" (Psalm 73:3). But when he entered God’s presence, his perspective shifted: "Whom have I in heaven but You? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You" (Psalm 73:25). The world’s metrics of success, fame, wealth, influence, are fleeting, but the work done for God’s glory lasts forever. We must guard our hearts against envy, for "love does not envy" (1 Corinthians 13:4), and "a sound heart is the life of the flesh, but envy the rottenness of the bones" (Proverbs 14:30).

You have a God-given desire to create and to use your talents for His kingdom. That is a holy ambition! The Lord delights in using ordinary people to do extraordinary things. David was a shepherd boy, yet God made him a king. Esther was an orphan, yet God used her to save a nation. You may feel small now, but God specializes in taking the weak things of the world to shame the strong (1 Corinthians 1:27). We encourage you to keep creating, write, film, produce, whatever the Lord has placed on your heart. But do so with a posture of surrender, saying, "Lord, this is for You. Use it as You will." The apostle Paul reminds us, "Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God" (1 Corinthians 10:31).

As for your desire to break into media, we pray that God would open the right doors for you. But we must caution against seeking fame for its own sake. The world’s version of "star shine" often leads to pride, emptiness, or moral compromise. Instead, ask God to give you influence for the sake of His kingdom. If He grants you a platform, use it to proclaim His truth, to encourage the brokenhearted, and to point others to Christ. Remember, "Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it" (Psalm 127:1). Your work will only bear lasting fruit if it is built on Him.

We also want to speak to the pain of past injustices, the lies, the unfair treatment, the loss of a job. It is right to mourn these things, for God is a God of justice (Psalm 37:28). But we must release our desire for vengeance to Him, for "vengeance is Mine, I will repay, says the Lord" (Romans 12:19). Holding onto bitterness will only poison your own soul. Instead, ask God to heal your wounds and to use even the hardships for His glory. Joseph was sold into slavery and wrongfully imprisoned, yet God used those trials to save nations (Genesis 50:20). Your story is not over. The same God who allowed those trials can redeem them for your good and His glory.

Now, let us pray:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, the Name above all names. Lord, we lift up our brother to You, knowing that You see his heart, his struggles, and his dreams. You know the injustices he has faced, the humiliation he has endured, and the longing for his gifts to be recognized. We ask that You would heal the wounds of his past, Lord. Where there has been betrayal, bring restoration. Where there has been mockery, bring dignity. Where there has been obscurity, bring purpose.

Father, we pray for open doors in his career. You are the God who opens doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8), and we ask that You would connect him with the right opportunities, platforms where his talents can be used to glorify You. Give him favor with those in positions of influence, and let his work be a light in the darkness. But Lord, guard his heart from the love of fame or the approval of men. Let his motivation always be to honor You, not to seek the praise of others.

We pray for his future wife, Father. Prepare her heart even now. Make her a woman of faith, wisdom, and godly character. Knit their hearts together in Your timing, and let their marriage be a reflection of Christ and the Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). Until that day, help him to remain pure in thought and deed, honoring You with his body as a temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

Lord, we rebuke the spirit of comparison and envy that seeks to steal his joy. Remind him that his worth is found in You alone, not in the approval of others. Help him to find contentment in Your presence, knowing that You are enough. When he feels overlooked, remind him that You see him, You love him, and You have a plan for his life.

We declare that his labor is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58). Whether his work is seen by millions or by a handful, may it always bring glory to Your name. Give him creativity, perseverance, and boldness to create content that reflects Your truth. Use him to revolutionize industries, to encourage the brokenhearted, and to point others to Jesus.

Finally, Lord, we ask that You would fill him with Your peace. Where there is anxiety about the future, bring Your calm. Where there is weariness, renew his strength. Where there is doubt, remind him of Your promises. May he walk in the confidence that comes from knowing You are with him, guiding his steps.

We pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith. Amen.
 
We hear the ache behind this, the exhaustion of being stuck in a place that feels humiliating, the sting of being overlooked while others seem to get the recognition you long for, and the sheer frustration of having gifts you can’t seem to get in front of the right people. That kind of invisible, grinding disappointment wears on a person deeply, and we’re sorry you’re carrying it.

It’s clear you’re trying to walk faithfully: guarding yourself against greed and envy, honoring God with your body, dreaming of using your talents to bless others. That integrity matters, and we don’t want to breeze past it. At the same time, when a man under 40 feels his work is going unnoticed or that he’s spinning his wheels, it can cut right to the core of who he is. Many of us tie a huge piece of our identity to what we do and whether it’s seen as valuable. That’s not weakness, it’s part of how we’re wired, and it can hit especially hard when the daily grind feels like a public embarrassment.

One thing we’d gently suggest: while you wait and pray for that door to open, what if you channeled some of that creative energy into making something small and complete on your own terms right now? Not waiting for the perfect invitation, but writing a short script, recording a simple video, or drafting a pitch that captures the kind of Christian media you’d want to create. Even if no one sees it yet, the act of making it can shift something inside you from powerless to purposeful. And if God does open that door, you’ll have something ready to hand them.

Jesus, you see this man, not just the job he hates, but the heart he’s guarding and the talents he wants to use for you. Lift the weight of humiliation off his shoulders. Give him a clear sense of his worth that doesn’t rise and fall with other people’s applause. Open the right door at the right time, and in the waiting, give him steady hands to keep creating and a renewed hope that you haven’t forgotten him. In Jesus’ name.
 
You cry out from the dust of a wearisome road, and the Lord hears the longing of your heart. Yet take heed, for the way you tread, though it seem low and surrounded by scoffers, is the very path your Saviour chose before you. He humbled Himself, being found in fashion as a man, and stooped to the death of the cross. Will you then despise the valley of humiliation when the Rose of Sharon perfumes its every shadowed corner? The heat of the sun upon your back, the mockery of idle tongues, the smallness of your present sphere, these are the schoolroom where learned obedience the Captain of our salvation. It is a sweet spot, though your flesh groan under it, for here you may have fellowship with Him who made Himself of no reputation.

But your request rises higher: you would send a video, gain a spot upon the national stage, have your talent known and praised. Weigh this carefully. The servant who received but one talent was not condemned because he had little; his sore guilt was that he buried it and brought forth no increase. The Master did not ask him why he had not gained ten, but simply, “What hast thou done with thy own?” Beware therefore of envying those who shine with ten talents, nor say in thine heart, “Lord, I could serve thee better with a wider fame.” He who knows all things has placed you where you are, and the trouble of using a single talent is small indeed, so your responsibility is all the more direct. Do you seek to revolutionize an industry in Japan? Then begin by being faithful in the bleakest corner of your own field, for God’s kingdom is built not by sudden blazes of notoriety but by the quiet leaven of faithful service. A true Christian cannot long remain hidden; if your gifts are from Him, they will make room for themselves in His time and way. But to cry for a little star-shine, even for a sanctified purpose, is a dangerous prayer. Remember that our blessed Lord needed the ministry of a poor woman’s hand to lift Him from a fever, and He condescended to receive it, yet He rushed not after the applause of crowds. He made Himself of no reputation.

The ministry of the gospel, the only revolution worth desiring, is attested not by streaming services nor by the praise of men, but by the stamp of God upon converted souls and holy lives. You speak of a Christian video; I would sooner see one poor sinner reclaimed from the mire by your private word in that despised workplace than behold a thousand broadcasts that tickle itching ears but bear no eternal fruit. Are you weary of picking weeds? Then pick them to the glory of God, and your very sweat shall be a sweet-smelling savor. Sympathy with souls is born not in the spotlight but in the furnace. You have known injustice and felt the sting of helplessness, there is your commission to speak a word in season to him that is weary. The Christian is a king; it is beneath his dignity to fret over the trifling honors of this passing age. Your crown awaits you at the last, when the Lord shall say, “Well done, good and faithful servant”, and that shall be better than a million views or the nod of any network executive.

Resign yourself, then, to His unerring wisdom. If He means you for a larger sphere, the door will open when you have learned to walk contentedly in the narrow place. If He withholds, then be it yours to say with your whole heart, “Nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt.” Let your ambition be that Christ may be magnified in your body, whether by life or by death. Use the talent you have this very day, with no eye to the gallery but with a single eye to His smile. Then, come what may, mockery, obscurity, or the gradual enlargement of your influence, you shall know the peace that passeth all understanding. And in the end, when earthly lights flicker and fail, to have been a door-mat for the pierced feet of Jesus is greater than to have been a star in this world’s firmament.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God is so in love with you. Be Encouraged!

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Matthew 6:33: But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Heal Me Lord Jesus Spirit, Soul, And Body

 
You speak of being tired of working outside, of people laughing, and of wanting a little shine from a media spot. Understand first that every ability you have is a talent entrusted to you by the Lord. He did not give you that creative spark so that you might bury it in the ground out of bitterness or idleness. The servant with one talent was condemned not because he had little, but because he did nothing with it. Do not let the mockery of others cause you to hide what God has given. But beware: the same servant who buried his talent also misjudged his master, regarding him as hard. Do not become hard-hearted yourself, measuring your worth by the applause of men.

You say you do not ask to be a big celebrity, only a little television spot. Yet search your soul: is this not the craving of vainglory, dressed in modest clothing? For every conflict, every root of envy, springs from the love of earthly honor. One man steals your honor, you say? He does not take what is yours from God. The praise that comes from men is a shadow; it fades as a garment waxes old. The real starshine is when the Bridegroom comes at midnight and finds your lamp full, not of human notice, but of oil, which is mercy and the good use of your gifts for others. The five foolish virgins had some oil, but not enough; they sought to borrow at the last moment and were shut out. So too, if your desire to “revolutionize the Japanese industry” aims only at being seen, you may find yourself knocking and hearing, “I know you not.”

You mention that others become millionaires while you struggle. Do not look to him who has five talents and envy his increase. The one with two talents was praised equally, because he gained what he could. Your ability, however small it seems, is meant to be traded for the common good, not buried under resentment. You want to use your own works to help others, this is excellent, if the glory is directed entirely to God. But if you seek even a little beam of worldly attention, you risk making the belly your god, serving the appetite for recognition instead of serving Christ. Remember that many who are praised on the big screen today will hear, “Thou wicked and slothful servant,” if they used their wealth and influence only for themselves.

The humiliations you suffer, the heat, the weeds, the animals, the mocking words, these are not unseen. He who fashions anew the body of our humiliation sees every drop of sweat. Endure them without nursing a grievance, and they become treasure stored in heaven. What does it profit if you gain a fleeting spot on a streaming service and lose the peace of a soul content with God’s timing? The punishment for seeking one’s own glory is not a light one; the fire that awaits the unprofitable servant is not quenched in a moment. Do not barter eternal rest for a few years of being noticed.

Use your talent. Write, create, do whatever funny or good thing lies in your power, but do it as to the Lord, not to men. If He opens a door to a wider audience, enter it with fear and trembling, giving Him all thanks. If not, be faithful in the small field He has given you. The widow with two mites was not denied her reward because no camera recorded her. Peter and John were unlearned and ignorant men, yet they filled the world with their sound, because they sought no shine for themselves. Let this mind be in you, and you will find that the light of Christ is far brighter than the flicker of any screen.
 
You are telling God you've had enough of the small, the outside, the heat and the weeds and the mocking words. You want a platform now, before the year ends, a video sent off to a streaming media outlet so you can finally feel some worth and get the attention you crave. There is nothing wrong with wanting to use your creative gifts for Christ, but the way you have framed it shows a heart that is dangerously close to despising the very field God has placed you in today.

Remember the man who received one talent. He looked at his master as hard and unfair, and he let fear and resentment make him bury the gift in the ground. When his lord returned, he handed it back unchanged and unforgiven, and he was thrown into outer darkness. The servant who took his few talents and traded with them, who used them in the ordinary exchanges of life, heard "Well done." Your current job is not a mistake. The heat, the harassment, the guy who asks you annoying questions, those people laughing, that is the plot of ground where you have been called to sow right now. If you are faithful in that unglamorous place, you are increasing what God has entrusted to you. If you refuse to trade until you get the big stage, you are burying your talent.

Look at the apostle Paul. He was chained in a Roman prison, cut off from the open-air preaching and the church planting he had known. It seemed a waste of a mighty talent. But Paul did not demand a release by the end of the year. He took the prison as his next assignment. He witnessed to the guards chained to him, and the gospel reached Caesar's own household. When he stood before Felix, Festus, and Agrippa, he did not plead for a media spot; he gave them the testimony of his conversion. Every arrest turned into an opportunity to testify. The Lord had promised that very thing: when you are dragged before rulers, the Spirit will give you words, and it will turn out for an opportunity to bear witness. You are not in a Roman jail, but the principle is the same. The weary field, the annoying coworker, the public ridicule, these are the providences God is using to prepare you and to shine through you now. Do not despise the one-talent assignments while you dream of the ten-talent platform.

You say you are not asking to be a big celebrity or a millionaire, just a little TV spot, a bit of star shine. I want you to search your heart. The desire for even a little recognition from man can become what Jesus warned about: the praise of men. The servant who builds a name for himself, who receives his plaque and his applause, may find that is the only reward he ever gets. God will not give His glory to another. When our deepest craving is to be seen and honored, we are stepping onto dangerous ground. The way of Christ is to love to be hidden, to serve with no spotlight, to be thrilled simply that we have been given any opportunity to serve the Lord at all. The princes of the world exercise dominion and jockey for attention. Among you, it shall not be so.

Now, you talk about revolutionizing the Japanese industry with a Christian video, and I believe you have a sincere desire to use your works to help others. That is good, but God's timing and God's method may not be a sudden email to a national network. Have you used the small, cheap means in front of you today? The internet is a tool that can serve a wonderful purpose or fill the mind with pollution. You can create your Christian content right now, without anyone's permission, and put it out faithfully. Do not wait for the gatekeepers. The servant who doubled his talent did not require a royal edict; he simply got to work with what he had. As you are faithful with a tiny audience, if it pleases the Lord, He may open a door to a larger one. But if you will only work once you have a guaranteed spotlight, you are not seeking the increase of the Kingdom, you are seeking your own escape from humiliation.

You have reminded the Lord of your moral faithfulness, your virginity, your avoidance of drink and drugs. Those are things for which we give thanks, but they are not leverage to demand a reward. Righteous living keeps you from unnecessary shipwreck, but it is not the price of a TV slot. The talent is a weight, a heavy stone that was used in the balance scales. What God has put into your hands is precious, but it must be used, not stored up as proof of your deserving. You are afraid of greed and envy, and that is well, for envy is rotting the bones. When you see others praised on big screens and you feel you are in a shackled home, do not let that comparison poison your spirit. The one-talent man looked at the others' increase and buried his own out of spite. Love your neighbor; rejoice when others are fruitful, even while you work in obscurity.

If God ever does give you a wider hearing, it will not be because you grew tired of being small, but because you learned, like Paul, that every place, whether a weedy field or a palace court, is an opportunity to testify of Jesus. Your call is to love, to serve, to create in the quiet, to speak a word for Christ to that redundant, annoying guy who asks about your job. The way of the believer has always been a marked, strange life, different from the world's scramble for limelight. So I urge you, stop demanding the end of the year as your deadline. Lay that before the Lord once, then take your hands off the calendar. Start using the video capability you already have. Start seeing your outdoor work as the place where the Holy Spirit can give you conversations that turn for a testimony. Do not bury the one talent under a napkin of discontent. If you will be faithful in the very small things, in due time, if He wills, He may entrust you with more. But even if no big media attention ever comes, you will hear on that final day what is infinitely better than the applause of a streaming channel.
