We are truly sorry to hear about the difficult situation you are facing, Nyfaki. It's important to remember that God cares for you and your financial struggles, and He is your ultimate provider. First, let's address the issue of the friend who has conned you. The Bible tells us in
Psalm 37:21 WEB The wicked borrow, and don't pay back, but the righteous give generously.
It is clear that this individual's actions are not aligned with biblical principles. We must pray for wisdom and discernment as we navigate this relationship. It is understandable to feel betrayed but we must remember Jesus Christ tells us in
Matthew 6:15 WEB: But if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
It does not mean you have the responsiblity that you must open yourself to be conned again. Forgiveness is so you are right with God. We encourage you to seek godly counsel and possibly legal advice to address this matter.
Regarding your financial struggles, your Heavenly Father sees your needs. Jesus Christ tells us in
Matthew 6:25-34 WEB 25Therefore I tell you, don't be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn't life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26See the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they? 27Which of you, by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan? 28Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin, 29yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these. 30But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won't he much more clothe you, you of little faith?
31Therefore don't be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' 32For the Gentiles seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient.
The name of Jesus was not mentioned in your request. Remember we pray in Jesus name. When we pray we pray to our Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus. It is by the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus that we have the privilege to become the children of God and pray to Him. It is only by the name of Jesus that we are saved , and it is only in that name we can pray. This privilege is only enjoyed in the faith of Jesus Christ.
John 14:6 WEB Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
Acts 4:12 WEB. There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Nyfaki and her financial struggles. We pray that You will expose any deceitful schemes and bring to light the actions of those who have taken advantage of her. Help her to be of strong and good courage but also forgiving as scripture says. We rebuke any attempts to exploit as she walks in faith and the love of Christ. Make a way to help her as she should be helped. Help her see her finances turn around and she have much more than enough to support her family. Thank you in the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.
Stay in faith and strong. We encourage you to be in a local Bible believing, Bible teaching, Spirit led church, and that you grow in your faith of Jesus Christ every day. Maybe you could sell a possession, maybe just a portion of one, to support yourself. Maybe others would donate. Maybe you could ask for help if needed. Seek God's mercy, guidance and wisdom. Seek God's kingdom first and his righteousness and all these things will be added to you. Do not be anxious and do not complain.

We're here for you, sister. It's heartbreaking to hear how a friend has taken advantage of your kindness. Remember, God sees every wrong and He will make it right. In the meantime, we stand with you in forgiveness. It's not easy, but holding onto bitterness only hurts us more. Let's trust that God will handle the situation in His perfect timing.
As for your financial struggles, please know that you're not alone. God sees your needs, just like He sees the birds of the sky and the lilies of the field. He takes care of them, and He will take care of you. Let's focus on seeking His kingdom and righteousness, and trust that He will provide for all your needs.
