Alaska Update / Wisdom ?

[Bemenra]

God granted your prayers; he gave me strength. I was able to go work door-dash and make $204 ($30/hr). Thank God. Thank You for praying. It almost didn’t happen as I left the shelter ~ 6:30 am and -8F; I bought coffee then slept in the van till 9:30 am. I had no strength. The last thing I wanted to do was to go deliver food. After my nap, I decided to “try”. That “try” turned into a good day of DD. I need wisdom (James 1:2). Why? The Union is working out a deal with the district. He told me he already had 3 months pay but he was working on. 4. He suggested I take it as any more may take over a year to achieve. He said I could probably win but having 3/4 months salary now might be better than a year from now. I agreed BUT there is a principle here. It is wrong what they are doing. God, what should I do? Should I take $12-16k now or fight for the rest of my contract? I guess, if I fight on, I could potentially get $0. As mom and dad used to always say “Life is not fair!” I MUST trust God that he is leading me or guiding me (Prov 3:3-5). I believe God brought me here, he can also take me away from here. The guy who sold me the van finally messaged me about the payoff ($2200). I told him what had happened and he was not ugly or mean. He asked me if I needed a job. I try and be detailed in my description… maybe something I say will help another person who reads it. I also see the hand of God in a number of ways. I pray a lot throughout the day. Prob every few minutes, I will say “God, please help me!” Possible answered prayers: Strength to work Money - $204 Kind debt collector Safety making deliveries New winter items to work (gloves, etc.) Warmer (10F vs -29F) Food Place to sleep (shelter) I miss my wife (Kai) deeply. I miss my children deeply. I have been unable to find a home. The veteran guy called me and told me he’s been looking for me but nothing. I “wish” my wife would call me and then I’d have a place. Please God!!

Bemenra, we are grateful to hear that God has been faithful in providing you with strength and guidance. It is clear that He has been answering your prayers, as seen in the provision of work, safety, and basic needs. We are thankful for the opportunity to continue praying for you and offering biblical counsel.

Firstly, we acknowledge your need for wisdom in decision-making regarding the settlement offer. Let’s consider what scripture has to say. James 1:5 reminds us, If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.We encourage you to seek God’s guidance through prayer and scripture study.

Let’s also consider your situation with your wife and family. 1 Corinthians 7:2 says, But because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. and 1 Thessalonians 4:4 says, 4 that each one of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,
Also 1 Corinthians 7:8-9 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say this: it is good for them to stay unmarried, even as I am. But if they can’t contain, let them marry. For it’s better to marry than to burn. If you're not legally married to the woman called in your posting "wife", you are not having a relationship that is valid by biblical standards. and you should not be living as husband and wife if you are not married. If sex is happening outside of marriage it is called fornication. It's also not appropriate to "wish" for a women to bring you into her home while you are not married to her.

To "wish" instead of being man to provide a home appears to let you be not aligned with the biblical standards of what a man and husband should be. That is a provider and protector. Ephesians 5:25 says, Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it; It is not biblical to wish for your wife to make a unmarried man's home. We are commanded to abstain from all appearance of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:22 and 1 Peter 3:7 says, You husbands, in like manner, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered. A biblical marriage is important if you want your prayers answered. Sex outside marriage is a sin thus will hinder your relationship with your Lord.And if you want to be married to her, then the best way to resolve this is repent of any fornication (sex outside marriage) and seek to court her and have her become your wife cementing this agreement, keeping it biblically.

A biblical marriage is important if you want your prayers answered. Please examine your life to see if there is anything hindering your prayers. Proverbs 21:13
Whatever a person says in secret, all shall hear it; fear and judge him. The corrupt in heart grieve the Lord and works contrary to God's standards. As for us,Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good. Romans 12:9

It is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to God. Acts 4:12, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved.'

Let's pray together for you:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, thanking You for Your faithfulness in Bemenra's life. Bemenra says they miss their children, please help him walk legally and able to be reconnected with them. You have provided strength, work, and basic needs, and we praise You for that. We ask for Your wisdom and guidance regarding the settlement offer. Help us walk with dignity. Our God does not want us begging from others to give us a home, but give us the provision to be able to afford one. Help them to stand by faith and be strengthened. Please help Bemenra to pursue a biblical marriage and to live in a way that honors You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Finally, we encourage you to continue trusting in God's provision and guidance. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Keep seeking God, read His Word and make sure your loved ones know your relationship goals and align them with the biblical context. Request offers of help only if they align with God's standards so people can pray tangible prayers for you.
