Dear readers.. Dear God, I am in ...

Anonymous · Aug 9, 2024

Dear readers.. Dear God, I am in a huge bind, I never thought I’d be back here. I asked for you to deliver the truth and show me clear visions for my relationship, you removed that. I was supposed to move into a new house with this person and get a new roof, it did not work out but by faith, you made a way to provide my own roof in sudden times, I asked for mental clarity at work, that place was not for my wellbeing, so I no longer have it. In other words, I lost everything all at once. But I don’t take it as a loss, I take it as my renewal period because I asked for these things and it hasn’t been on my time, I understand, it’s been God’s time. I am in a situation where I don’t know what is going to happen next with my new roof over my head or finances. I pray that I continue my faith, faith as small as a mustard seed. I know my God is real because I’ve been tested countless times and He’s always came through when I least expect it. I’ve been struggling with Letting go and letting God! I’m only human and I’ve tried to do my part but I’m at a point of when do I let go of my humanly nature and let God work. I have not realized that I’ve exhausted all of my options, EXCEPT just letting go. I’m down to the chopping block and I know that I am not a saint, we all are sinners, but I repent and ask God to show me the light. Pick me up because right now I’m finding it hard to walk. Help me get back to the person I know I can be and get my mind back. Help me to continue my path of spirituality. I feel stuck and I need a boost. I need a pick up. God says to say specifically what you need from him, but I also know that he knows what we need more than us. With that being said, I saw a prayer, the ‘I don’t know prayer.’ God I don’t know but you do! Help me through this tough time where I’m having a hard time thinking for myself. I ask for prayers. Thank you in advance as well! To my Heavenly Father, Lord, King, I pray to you above. I am crying out for help. Hear me out. I’m letting go. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Anonymous, we hear your cry for help and we stand with you in prayer, seeking God's will for your life. We commend you for your faith and for recognizing that God's timing is not always the same as ours. It is encouraging to see that you are holding onto your faith, knowing that God has a plan and a purpose for you.

Firstly, we want to address the importance of surrender. You mentioned the struggle with letting go and letting God work. In Romans 12:1-2 (WEB), we are encouraged to present our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is our spiritual service. We are to be transformed by the renewing of our minds, so that we may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. Letting go is not a sign of defeat, but an act of faith, trusting that God knows what is best for us.

Regarding your situation with the house and finances, we pray that God will provide for your needs according to His riches in glory. Philippians 4:19 (WEB) tells us, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." We pray that God will open doors for you, that He will bless you with a stable home and finances, and that He will give you wisdom to manage them well.

We also want to address your relationship status. We noticed that you mentioned moving into a house with a person, but it is unclear if this person is a spouse or an unmarried partner. If the latter is the case, we encourage you to consider God's design for relationships. In 1 Corinthians 6:18 (WEB), we are told to flee from sexual immorality, which includes living together outside of marriage. We encourage you to pursue relationships that honor God and align with biblical principles. If you are not already married, we pray that God will bring a godly spouse into your life, someone who will love and respect you, and who will help you grow in your faith.

Lastly, we want to encourage you to continue seeking God, to continue praying and reading His Word. In Jeremiah 33:3 (WEB), God says, "Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great things, and difficult, which you don't know." We pray that God will reveal His plan for your life, that He will give you clarity and direction, and that He will strengthen your faith.

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today, lifting up our dear sister/brother in Christ. Lord, You know the struggles she/he is facing, the uncertainties, the fears. We ask that You would be her/his comfort and strength in this time. Help her/him to fully surrender to You, trusting that You have a good and perfect plan for her/his life.

We pray for her/his living situation and finances. Lord, You know her/his needs. We ask that You would provide for her/him according to Your riches in glory. Open doors for her/him, give her/him favor, and bless her/him abundantly.

We also pray for her/his relationships. Lord, if it is not Your will for her/him to be in this current relationship, we ask that You would give her/him the strength to walk away. Bring a godly spouse into her/his life, someone who will love and respect her/him, and who will help her/him grow in her/his faith.

Lord, we ask that You would reveal Your plan for her/his life. Give her/him clarity and direction. Strengthen her/his faith and help her/him to continue seeking You, no matter the circumstances.

In Jesus' precious name, we pray. Amen.
