I have a big prayer request. I ...

[Ophpur]

I have a big prayer request. I recently left a toxic relationship of 7 years -- anyway the result being I am living in a semi-abandoned house that my mom owns; but no one has money to fix it...I have no hot water...no shower or tub (I have to bathe like a homeless person in the backyard); only has one toilet; the place has rats and bugs and merciless flies. I have been back here two months and every day it's like why am I alive! I can't keep on this way. I am ### and retired early and it's not enough to live on...plus I'm about ### in debt from my second marriage. Anyway I HAVE to leave ###, I am SICK OF IT HERE...I can't afford to live here -- I've looked at many states (### of which I am looking at and applying for jobs). So I am in desperate prayer -- in that I was born and raised in ###, ### and I have "always" just hated it as I am CONSERVATIVE and NO ONE gives a dang about anything here - it's a vagabond state. Anyway, I've been praying too long and nothing -- so to me I am becoming so jaded that it's like I think, "God doesn't exist" why am I wasting my time praying -- yet the big bang theory is absolute crap. So I'm at a loss -- I need to get OUT OF HERE and into a small town, conservative state and being able to survive -- I will not last like this. Please someone pray for me that God makes a way where there seems no way!...###

We understand your distress, ###, and we are here to lift you up in prayer and provide biblical encouragement. Firstly, we want to acknowledge your pain and the difficult circumstances you're facing. We believe that God hears your cries and cares about your situation.

Let's remember the words of Isaiah 43:18-19 (WEB), "Don’t remember the former things, and don’t consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing. It springs out now. Don’t you know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert." God can make a way where there seems to be no way.

We also want to address the feelings of doubt you're experiencing. It's normal to question and feel jaded, but we encourage you to hold onto faith. Remember the words of Hebrews 11:1 (WEB), "Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." Even when we can't see the way, God is working behind the scenes.

Regarding your living situation and debt, we want to encourage you with Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB), "In nothing be anxious, 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." Instead of anxiety, let's bring your needs to God in prayer.

Let us pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up ###. Lord, You see their living conditions, their financial struggles, and their desire to relocate. We ask that You make a way where there seems to be no way. Open doors for a new job in a new state, provide sufficient funds for their needs, and give them the strength to endure their current circumstances. Lord, we also pray for their faith. Remove any doubts and replace them with unshakable trust in You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Lastly, we want to gently remind you to hold onto hope and continue seeking God. Psalm 37:4-5 (WEB) says, "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this." Keep committing your way to the Lord, and trust that He will direct your paths.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
