We hear the deep weariness in your heart, and we stand with you in this season of overwhelming burden, lifting your needs before the Lord with urgency and faith. The weight of financial strain, physical exhaustion, and the heat of injustice can feel crushing, but we are reminded that our God is the God of the impossible, who parts seas, multiplies loaves, and provides manna in the wilderness. You are not forgotten, beloved. The Lord sees your struggle, and He is faithful to sustain you even when the path feels unbearable.
The Scripture declares in **Matthew 11:28-30 (WEB)**, *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."* Jesus is inviting you to release these burdens into His hands—every lost item, every financial need, every appointment, and even the oppressive heat. He is not indifferent to your cries. In **1 Peter 5:7 (WEB)**, we are told to *"cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you."* This is not a passive suggestion but a command rooted in His deep love for you.
We also take note of your question: *"Where are your miracles, Jesus, for your saints?"* Oh, beloved, the miracles are still here—they are in the breath in your lungs, the strength to rise each morning, and the fact that you are still standing despite the weight of it all. But we also acknowledge that sometimes the miracles we long for seem delayed, and in those moments, we must cling to the truth of **Habakkuk 2:3 (WEB)**: *"For the vision is yet for the appointed time, and it hurries toward the end, and won’t prove false. Though it takes time, wait for it; because it will surely come. It won’t delay."* The Lord’s timing is perfect, even when it feels slow to us. He is working behind the scenes in ways we cannot see, and we must trust that His provision—whether through the sale of your vehicle, an unexpected blessing, or a supernatural intervention—will come at the exact right moment.
As for the sale of your vehicle, we declare **Philippians 4:19 (WEB)** over you: *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* We pray that the Lord would send the right buyer quickly, that every obstacle would be removed, and that the sale would exceed your expectations. We also pray for wisdom in managing the appointments ahead and for supernatural strength to endure the heat. The Lord is your shade and your refuge, even in the scorching sun (**Psalm 121:5-6**).
Yet we must also address something tenderly but firmly: in your cry, you asked, *"Where is your miracles, Jesus, for your saints?"* While we hear the desperation in your voice, we gently remind you that our words—even in our deepest distress—must honor the Lord. Questioning His faithfulness, though understandable in human weakness, can open the door to doubt and discouragement. Instead, let us declare with the psalmist in **Psalm 42:11 (WEB)**, *"Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God! For I shall still praise him: my Savior, my helper, and my God."* Even when we don’t see the answer yet, we choose to praise Him, for He is worthy.
We also notice that while you mentioned "Jesus" in your plea, there was no direct invocation of His name in prayer—no "in Jesus’ name" or acknowledgment of His authority over this situation. Beloved, it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father (**John 14:6, 13-14**). There is no other name by which we are saved, no other name with the power to move mountains (**Acts 4:12**). We encourage you to boldly approach the throne of grace *in His name*, for it is there that mercy and help are found (**Hebrews 4:16**).
Now, let us pray over you together:
*"Heavenly Father, we lift our brother/sister before You, knowing that You are the God who sees and the God who provides. Lord, they are weary—bone-tired and overwhelmed by the weight of financial lack, the heat of injustice, and the relentless demands of life. But You, O God, are their strength and their portion forever. We ask that You would supernaturally intervene in the sale of their vehicle. Send the right buyer quickly, Lord, and let the sale be a testament to Your faithfulness. Provide for every financial need, not just enough to scrape by, but abundantly, so that they may praise Your name and be a blessing to others.
Father, we pray for supernatural rest and refreshment for their body, mind, and spirit. When the heat feels unbearable, be their shade. When the appointments feel endless, be their peace. When the lost items seem to mock their exhaustion, Lord, restore what has been misplaced and bring order to the chaos. We rebuke the spirit of overwhelm and confusion in Jesus’ name, and we declare that Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard their heart and mind (**Philippians 4:7**).
Lord, we also ask that You would reveal any areas where our brother/sister may be carrying burdens You never intended for them to bear. Show them how to release these things into Your hands fully. And Father, forgive any words spoken in frustration or doubt. Renew their faith and help them to stand firm on Your promises, knowing that You are working all things together for their good (**Romans 8:28**).
We thank You, Lord, that You are not distant but near to the brokenhearted (**Psalm 34:18**). We thank You that You are their Provider, their Healer, and their Justice. We declare that they will see Your miracles—perhaps not in the way they expect, but in ways that will leave them in awe of Your goodness. Strengthen them to wait on You, to trust in You, and to praise You even in the waiting.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen."*
Beloved, hold on. The Lord has not forgotten you. Keep your eyes on Him, not the storm. And remember: the same God who fed Elijah by ravens (**1 Kings 17:4-6**) and who turned water into wine (**John 2:1-11**) is the God who is working in your life right now. Trust Him. Wait on Him. And watch as He moves on your behalf.
