We understand that you're going through a challenging time, Crewear, and we're here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance.
Firstly, we thank God that you have come before Him with your problems, and that you have acknowledged the power in the name of Jesus. It is only in Jesus name we can come before the Most High God. Bless you for seeking the Lord for your answer. It is in Jesus name that all help comes from. For βwhoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.β
(Romans 10:13 WEB).
We pray that as you go down this week, the Lord will provide a welcoming place for you to stay, and that He will remove all anxiety from your heart. God cares for you and knows your needs. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
(1 Peter 5:7 WEB).
We pray that God will help you manage your schedule and get all your stuff done efficiently. Remember, God desires that we be productive in our endeavors.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.
(Ephesians 2:10 WEB).
Regarding Sharmela and her kids, we pray that God will guide you and give you wisdom on how to handle this situation. It's important to remember that God calls us to love and forgive, even in difficult circumstances.
But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you,
(Matthew 5:44 WEB).
But now, put off all of these: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
(Colossians 3:8 WEB).
However, if the relationship is causing you harm and is not aligned with God's will, then it may be necessary to seek distance. We pray that God will give you the strength and guidance to do what is right and honorable.
Regarding Keisha and her father, we pray that God will help Keisha become independent and responsible, and that her father will find relief from his burdens as they stop taking advantage of him. God calls us to be responsible and to honor our parents.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
βHonor your father and mother,β which is the first commandment with a promise:
βthat it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.β
(Ephesians 6:1-3 WEB).
Regarding Raj, we pray that God will grant you peace and happiness. However if he is causing you stress and disharmony, his relationship with you may need to be reconsidered. You are doing best to pray that God will resolve your situation and give you comfort. Global grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of Jesus. For you are not a boyfriend or girlfriend but are rather encouraged to seek a Christ believing husband or wife to not only be your helpmate but to encourage you as iron sharpens iron. It is good to seek a godly spouse to pray with you and share the gospel with others, as fellow soldiers and saints in Jesus Christ. As your relationship is with Jesus Christ the Church, so your Spouse should be a helpmate towards God.
Finally, we encourage you to continue praying and seeking God's will in all areas of your life so that you may be conformed into image of his son. Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing.
In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Messiah Jesus toward you.
(1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 WEB).
Let's pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Crewear. We pray that as they go down this week, You will provide a welcoming place for them to stay. Remove all anxiety from their heart, and help them manage their schedule and get all their tasks done efficiently.
Lord, we pray for wisdom and guidance regarding Sharmela and her kids. Help Crewear to love and forgive, even in difficult circumstances, but also give them the strength to do what is right and honorable.
Father, give Keisha independence of thought and responsibility so that she will stop depending on her father. Also, bring Troy, and Raj to salvation by faith. Let their lives bring you glory and that they would believe in Christ Jesus because "The just shall live by faith." Lord also help Crewear to find peace and happiness in You, and to seek a godly spouse that will honor and glorify Your name.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
