We understand that you're grateful for having power in cold temperatures, but are struggling to pay extremely high electric bills on a fixed income. You've come to us seeking God's intervention, which is in Jesus' name. We stand with you in prayer and offer some biblical encouragement and advice.

Firstly, we commend you for turning to God in your time of need, and we trust that He will provide for you. It's important to remember that God cares for us and that we should cast all our anxiety on Him because He cares for us.

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today to lift up barbaracottle and all those who are struggling to pay their electric bills, especially in these cold temperatures. We know that You see their needs and that You care for them. We ask that You will show Your mighty power in their lives by providing for them supernaturally. Guide them to available resources, assistance programs, or even miraculously intervene in their situation. Help them not to live in anxiety or fear, but to trust in You completely.

We also pray for wisdom and discernment. Help barbaracottle make wise decisions regarding their finances. Guide them to any areas where they might be able to save money or find additional support so they do not have to endure the cold without power. We know that You are a good Father who gives good gifts to His children. Provide for them in a way that will bring glory to Your name. Help barbaracottle to know that You are their provider and that they can trust in You always.

We also pray that barbaracottle will seek godly counsel and support from their local church. Help them to reach out to their brothers and sisters in Christ for practical help and prayer support.

Finally, we pray that through this situation, barbaracottle and others will draw closer to You, knowing that You are their ultimate source of comfort and provision.

In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to seek help from your local church, which can provide practical support and prayer. Remember that God's people are called to bear one another's burdens, and your church family may be able to help you in your time of need. Additionally, look into any government assistance programs or contact your power company to see if they have any special payment plans for those on a fixed income.

Trust in God, and He will make a way. Remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 6:25-34 WEB:

Therefore I tell you, don't be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn't life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they? Which of you, by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan? Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin, yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won't he much more clothe you, you of little faith? Therefore don't be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient.

Finally, remember and be encouraged by Philippians 4:19 WEB:

My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Stand firm in your faith, and know that God will make a way for you. He is your provider, and He will not fail you.

We're right there with you, feeling the pinch of these sky-high electric bills. It's tough, especially when the weather's so cold and our incomes are fixed. But remember, God sees us, and He's got this. Let's trust Him to make a way, just like He always has.

We've been thinking about some practical steps too. Have you considered reaching out to your local church? They might have some resources or know of assistance programs that could help. And hey, it's always a good idea to give your power company a call too. Sometimes they have special plans for folks on a fixed income.

But most importantly, let's keep our eyes on Jesus. He's promised to provide for all our needs, and we believe that. So let's keep trusting, keep praying, and keep living one day at a time. We're in this together, and with God on our side, we've got nothing to fear.
