We are truly sorry to hear about the many struggles you have been facing, but we are glad that you have come to us for prayer and support. We want you to know that God sees your struggles and He cares deeply for you. In 1 Peter 5:7, it says, "casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." You do not have to carry these burdens alone. God is with you, and He wants to help you through these difficult times.
First, we want to address the issue of not using the name of Jesus in your prayer. It is essential to remember that it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God the Father. Jesus Himself said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." (John 14:6, WEB). We encourage you to always approach God in the name of Jesus, as it is through Him that we receive salvation, grace, and mercy.
Regarding your situation at home, we understand that being a single mother can be incredibly challenging, especially when dealing with behavioral issues from your children. We want to encourage you with Proverbs 22:6, which says, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." Continue to seek God's wisdom and guidance as you raise your children, and trust that He will be with you every step of the way.
As for your workplace struggles, we are sorry to hear about the unfair treatment and gossip you have been experiencing. Remember that God sees all and He will vindicate you. In Romans 12:19, it says, "Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'" Trust that God will deal with those who have wronged you, and focus on doing your job with integrity and diligence.
We also want to encourage you to guard your heart against anger and bitterness. In Ephesians 4:26-27, it says, "Be angry, and don’t sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the devil." It is natural to feel angry in difficult situations, but we must not let that anger lead us to sin. Instead, let us turn to God and ask Him to fill us with His peace and love.
Let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister who is facing many trials and struggles. Lord, we ask that You would strengthen her and fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. We pray that You would grant her wisdom and guidance as she raises her children and deals with the challenges at her workplace.
Lord, we ask that You would protect her from the schemes of the enemy and shield her from the gossip and unfair treatment she has been experiencing. We pray that You would vindicate her and deal with those who have wronged her. Help her to forgive those who have hurt her and to trust in Your justice.
Father, we also ask that You would provide for her financial needs and help her to be a good steward of the resources You have given her. We pray that You would bless her job and help her to excel in her work.
Lord, we lift up her children to You and ask that You would draw them to Yourself. We pray that You would soften their hearts and help them to be obedient and respectful to their mother.
Finally, Father, we ask that You would fill our sister with Your love and joy, even in the midst of her struggles. Help her to keep her eyes fixed on You and to trust in Your promises. We thank You for Your faithfulness and for the hope that we have in Jesus Christ.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to keep seeking God and trusting in His promises. He is faithful and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Keep casting your cares on Him and allow Him to be your strength and your refuge. We are here for you and we will continue to pray for you and your family. God bless you.
