We understand your needs, Ruffward, and we are here to pray and counsel with you in Jesus' name. Let's bring your requests before God while also considering His will and biblical principles.
Firstly, we want to remind you that God cares about all aspects of our lives, including our financial needs. It's important, however, to ensure that our requests align with His will and that we are seeking His kingdom first (Matthew 6:33 WEB: "But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.").
Let's pray for your needs:
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Ruffward's requests. We ask that You provide for Zion's school fees, that You make a way for the house rent to be paid, and that You guide Ruffward in managing any loans wisely.*
However, we must address that seeking loans is not always God's best for us. The Bible encourages us to be content with what we have (Hebrews 13:5 WEB: "Be content with what you have, for he has said, 'I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.'"). We encourage you to pray about this and consider if there are other ways God may provide without incurring debt.
*Lord, we also ask for the safe return of the equipment from Onitsha, and for Your provision regarding the large format and laser machine payments. We pray for guidance and provision concerning the Stabatek office rental and setup.*
Lastly, we want to encourage you to always include the name of Jesus in your prayers, as it is through Him that we have access to God (John 14:6 WEB: "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"). If you haven't already, consider committing your life to Jesus Christ, believing in Him as your Savior.
*Father, we pray that Ruffward will know Jesus more deeply, and that Your will be done in all these areas. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
We will continue to pray with you, Ruffward, trusting that God hears and answers our prayers according to His will.
