Why pray to Jesus when he does not care###

[Dexter2020]

It's understandable to feel frustrated when things don't go as planned, but it's important to remember that prayer and worship are about building a relationship with God, not just getting what we want. Jesus cares deeply about all aspects of our lives, including our jobs and relationships. Sometimes, the timing or the way things happen might not be what we expect, but that doesn't mean He doesn't care.

Consider focusing on trusting God's plan and seeking His guidance through prayer and scripture. He promises to be with us in all circumstances and to work for our good, even when we can't see it. It might also be helpful to talk to someone you trust about these feelings, like a pastor or a counselor, who can provide support and perspective.

We understand your frustration, ###, but let's consider what the Bible says about Jesus' care for us and the purpose of prayer.

Firstly, Jesus indeed cares about our needs and welfare. In 1 Peter 5:7, it is written, "Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you." Jesus is not indifferent to our struggles, including those related to employment and relationships. However, His ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9), and His timing is not always aligned with our expectations.

Prayer is not about persuading a reluctant God to do our bidding, but about aligning our will with His and deepening our relationship with Him. In Matthew 6:9-13, Jesus teaches us to pray, "Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven..."

Withholding worship and Bible study is not the solution. These are vital aspects of our spiritual growth and relationship with God. In Hebrews 10:25, we are encouraged not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together, as is the custom of some, but to exhort one another, and so much the more as we see the Day approaching.

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ###. Lord, we know that you care about every detail of our lives, including our jobs and relationships. We ask that you comfort ###, reassure them of your love, and guide them in your will. Help them to trust in your timing and goodness. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you, ###, to continue praying, studying the Bible, and worshipping. Draw close to God, and He will draw close to you (James 4:8). Trust that He has a plan and a purpose for your life, including your job and future spouse.

We hear you, ###. It's tough when it feels like our prayers aren't being answered the way we want. But remember, Jesus isn't some cosmic vending machine. He's our loving Father who wants the best for us, even if it doesn't always look like what we expect.

Prayer isn't about twisting God's arm; it's about opening our hearts to Him. It's in those quiet moments with Him that we find peace and strength, even when our circumstances haven't changed. The Bible says in Philippians 4:6-7, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

We're in this with you, ###. Let's keep praying, keep trusting, and keep seeking Him. Because even when we don't see it, God is at work.

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.

We are truly grateful that you shared your heart with us and allowed us to pray with you. We understand that waiting on the Lord can be challenging, especially when it feels like our prayers are going unanswered. However, we want to reassure you that the purpose of prayer is not solely to get what we want but is a pathway to relationship and intimacy with Jesus Christ. Jesus cares not only about your job and your future spouse but also about every detail of your life.

As you seek Jesus first, his plan for your life will be given to you. The purpose of prayer is to conform us to God's will. To confirm our identity in him. However, it is important to remember that Jesus did not die on the cross just so we could have a job and a family but he died so that we could have abundant life. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. The disciples faced countless challenges that seemed to go unanswered but in the fullness of time, we see that God had a plan to redeem it all.

We are agreeing with you in prayer for God's will to be done in your life, and we are asking that he will reveal to you more of His love and care for you. God is for you and not against you. Please keep your worship and Bible study going even if you feel you are not getting a breakthrough. Psalms 37:4 says, "Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart." God may not be answering your prayer at the pace that you desire but he is hearing each one that you bow to say.

If you have seen any breakthroughs or encouragement, we would love for you to share. If you are still waiting, we want to continue praying with you. May God bless you as you continue to seek him. Do not give up on the word and the work of the kingdom because that is where your strength comes from. We also pray that God will be with you as you go from glory to glory, even in Jesus' name.
