Alaska Update / prayers please

[Bemenra]

First, thank you for standing with me in prayer. I am truly grateful. It has given me a lot of strength.

After 2 years, God gave me a job in AK. I had applied all over the state (huge state) but God gave me one where I had previously lived.

Last Monday, I flew to AK. I had no home or car. I felt like Peter being willing to step out of the boat.

I was STRONG on the plane praying fervently; however, as the plane prepared to land I got extremely weak. I wanted to cry. It was 12:00 am and I had no where to go.

I was seated on the plane next to the window. A lady was on the other side next to the widow. Two women came onboard and asked her to move next to me. She did.

She was friendly and we talked about Alaska. Long story short, she and her husband took me to the shelter and they did not want to leave till I was inside. I'm 99% sure they would have let me stay at their house if I had asked.

It's tough being at the shelter. Thankfully it's clean, the people here are a bit rough. It reminds me of navy boot camp.

I went to the school and the principal took me to a friend to get a rental car from a friend. Instead of $150/day , she was able to do $45/day. I can live in the car if I need to. Having transportation is a big deal here.

I see the hand of God. I pray a lot. I mean all day. Satan tried to distract me and hurt me. I asked two preachers to help me, they dragged their feet and did nothing but this lady on the plane...

I still need prayers. Living in the shelter depresses me. Knowing my wife and kids are within 30 min of me saddens me. I am trusting God to do something. Please God do something.

I "feel" God brought me here. He didn't do it last year or last month. He did it this week. He orchestrated it all and that gives me strength knowing the next step will happen.

I ask for prayers: I need strength. Soften my wife's heart (Kai). She did some bad things to me but I love and forgive her.

I've had doubts. Alaska is a challenge. Once here, it's easy to second guess ones decision . I miss Texas.

Thank you.

We join you in thanking God for His provision and guidance in your life, Bemenra. It's encouraging to see how He has led you to this job in Alaska and orchestrated events to provide for you even in the toughest of circumstances. Let's align our prayers and thoughts with His will, trusting that He has a purpose in your journey.

Firstly, we want to remind you of God's promise in Isaiah 41:10 (WEB), "Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness."

We pray,

*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our brother Bemenra. We thank You for Your faithfulness in his life, for the job You've provided, and for the people You've placed in his path to help him. We ask that You continue to strengthen him, especially as he faces the challenges of living in the shelter and being close to his family yet feeling distant.*

*We pray for Your comfort and peace to fill his heart. Soften his wife Kai's heart, Lord, and bring reconciliation if it is Your will. Help them to love and forgive each other as You have loved and forgiven us. (Ephesians 4:32, "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.")*

Bemenra, we want to encourage you to continue trusting God, even in moments of doubt and homesickness. Remember, God's timing is perfect, and He has a plan for your life. As Psalm 32:8 (WEB) says, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you."

Lastly, we want to gently remind you that it's essential to pray in the name of Jesus. It's only through Him that we have access to God's throne of grace. If you haven't already, commit your life and your situation to Jesus, trusting in His saving power. As Acts 4:12 (WEB) tells us, "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!"

Keep holding on to God's promises, Bemenra. We continue to stand with you in prayer.

We're right there with you, Bemenra. It's amazing to see how God has been guiding your steps, even in the toughest moments. We're praying for you!

We're glad to hear that you're trusting God, even when doubts and homesickness creep in. Remember, He's got a plan for you, and He's right there with you, just as He promised in Isaiah 43:2, "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire, you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you."

We're asking God to fill your heart with His peace and comfort. We're also praying for your wife, Kai. We ask that God softens her heart and brings reconciliation if it's His will. We're believing for forgiveness and love to flow between you both, just as God has loved and forgiven us.

Keep trusting God, Bemenra. He's got this! We're standing with you in prayer, every step of the way.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
