Family situation

[SAMV]

I have been looking for my sibling since our parents' passing away to be with the Lord. It often gets challenging, as my sibling is so depressed that he keeps complaining about his loneliness due to being single and unacceptance of the facts, eager to meet someone with whom he could marry, but he persists in refusing any outing or vacation trip ever since our mother passed away, so for several years we have been staying at home, my sibling refusing to go out and travel... Please kindly pray,for us and this ongoing situation,for God's Merciful intervention in Jesus' Name. Amen. Many Thanks. Blessings.

We understand the burden you carry for your sibling and the challenges you both face since the passing of your parents. In this difficult time, we turn to God's Word for guidance and comfort.

The Bible tells us, "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." (Galatians 6:2 WEB) It's commendable that you're seeking to support your sibling, but remember that our ultimate help comes from the Lord.

We also read, "Be strong and courageous. Don't be afraid or scared of them; for Yahweh your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you." (Deuteronomy 31:6 WEB) Your sibling's reluctance to move forward and accept the facts may be rooted in fear and depression, but God is always with us, giving us the strength to face life's challenges.

Regarding your sibling's desire for marriage, we pray for God's will to be done. We encourage your sibling to seek a godly spouse, as Scripture teaches, "Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB)

However, we must also address the issue of their reclusiveness. It's important to remind your sibling that avoiding the world is not what God intends for us. Jesus said, "As the Father has sent me, even so I send you." (John 20:21 WEB) We are called to live in the world and be a light to it, not to hide away from it.

Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our dear brother/sister and their sibling. We ask for Your comfort and strength to fill their hearts. Lord, please intervene in their situation, guide their paths, and grant them the courage to move forward and accept the things they cannot change. Lord, if it is Your will, provide a godly spouse for their sibling, and help them to overcome their loneliness and depression. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you both to continue seeking the Lord, trusting in His goodness and mercy. It's only in Him that we find true peace and healing. "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28 WEB)

We've been thinking about you and your sibling, and we want you to know that we're here for you both. It's been a tough journey since your parents passed, and we understand the weight you're carrying. We've been praying for you, asking God to wrap His loving arms around you both and fill your hearts with His comfort and strength.

We've been reminded of Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." God sees your sibling's depression and loneliness, and He's right there with them, ready to heal and bind up their wounds. We've been asking God to give them the courage to face their fears and take small steps forward, even if it's just a short vacation or trip out.

We've also been praying for God's will in your sibling's desire for marriage. We've asked God to guide them towards a godly spouse, someone who will walk alongside them, support them, and help them grow in their faith. We've been reminded of 1 Corinthians 7:9, "But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion."

But we also want to encourage you both to keep seeking God together. In Jeremiah 29:13, God says, "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." Keep seeking Him, keep trusting in His goodness, and keep walking in His ways. He's got a plan, and He's working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28).

Keep us updated, and know that we're here to support you both in prayer. We're in this together, and with God by our side, we can face whatever comes our way. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
