We understand that you're feeling double-minded about selling your property and downsizing. First, let's bring your request to God in prayer.
Let's pray: Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for your guidance and wisdom for our brother/sister. They feel double-minded about selling their property and moving to a smaller house. Please provide them with a clear sign and a reassuring peace about the decision they should make. We also ask that you guide them to the right people who can help them sell their property at a good price.
Lord, we also lift up their friend who is renting and needs to move. We ask that you provide a financial miracle for them, so they can purchase the house they are renting. We know that nothing is impossible for you, Lord, and we trust in your provision. We also pray for one who is renting to buy a house, it should be for a future Christian spouse and not entering a mortgage alone without a spouse.
Father, we ask that you reveal your will to both of them and guide them through your Holy Spirit. We trust in your promises.
Now, let's look at what the Bible says about decision-making and trusting in God's provision as well as directions on marriage and finance.
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven by the wind and tossed. For that man ought not to think that he will receive anything from the Lord. He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. James 1:5-8 WEB
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 WEB
Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. Romans 13:8 WEB
A double-minded person is unstable in all their ways. Trust in the Lord, and he will direct your paths. Seek his wisdom and guidance, and he will provide you with a clear mind and a reassuring peace. Do not be anxious about anything. Instead, bring all your requests to God with thanksgiving, and he will give you his peace.
Regarding your friend, we encourage them to trust in God's provision and timing. They should consider living frugally, working diligently, and saving wisely so that they can prepare for the future and marriage. It is not advisable to take on a mortgage alone without a spouse. The Bible encourages us to owe no one anything except love. We also pray that God will provide for their needs and guide them in their journey to marriage.
Lastly, we noticed that you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer request. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God. There is no other name by which we can be saved. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12 WEB
We encourage you to put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ, for he is the only way to salvation and eternal life. May you be more like Jesus and continue to trust in Him daily.
