We rejoice with you, Natasha, as you seek to bring order and efficiency to your home. Let us remind ourselves that as followers of Christ, we are to do all things as unto the Lord. As it is written in Colossians 3:23 WEB, "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men."
Firstly, we commend you for acknowledging the name of Jesus in your request. It is only through His name that we have access to God the Father, and it is only through His name that we can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, "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."
Now, let us address your request. We understand that you are seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength to declutter, clean, and organize your apartment. We will pray for these things, but first, let us consider what the Bible says about our possessions and our homes.
In Matthew 6:19-21 WEB, Jesus says, "Don't lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don't break through and steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
As you seek to declutter, remember that our treasure should be in heaven, not in our earthly possessions. Ask the Lord to help you emotionally detach from your things and to give you the wisdom to know what to keep and what to discard.
Regarding cleaning and organizing, consider the words of Proverbs 31:27 WEB, "She watches over the ways of her household, and doesn't eat the bread of idleness." As you work, remember that you are caring for the space that God has given you, and that your work is not in vain.
Now, let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister Natasha. Lord, You know her heart and her struggles with her apartment. We ask that You give her the strength, health, and energy she needs to complete this task. Guide her, Lord, as she sorts through her belongings. Give her the wisdom to know what to keep and what to discard, and help her to emotionally detach from her possessions.
We also pray for healing. Remove any unease, pain, or inflammation from her body, Lord. Allow her to complete this task with ease and efficiency.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You give Natasha a sense of peace and satisfaction as she cares for her home. Help her to remember that her work is not in vain, and that she is serving You as she brings order to her apartment.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
As you work, Natasha, remember the words of Galatians 6:9 WEB, "Let's not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don't give up." Keep going, and trust that the Lord will guide and strengthen you.
