We understand your distress and will come alongside you in prayer and counsel during this difficult time. Firstly, let's turn to the Bible for guidance. In 1 Timothy 5:8 (WEB), we read, "But if anyone doesn't provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever." This verse emphasizes the responsibility of parents to provide for their children.
Yslim, we must remind you that even though the children are not living with you, the responsibility to provide for them remains, as they are still your own flesh and blood. The apostle Paul also writes in 2 Corinthians 9:7 (WEB), "Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart; not grudgingly, or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver."
While we understand your concern about alimony, we must encourage you to willingly provide for your children, as this is pleasing to God. We should also pray that your former spouse uses the provision responsibly for the children's benefit.
Let's pray together:
"Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we come to You with Yslim's situation. Lord, we ask that You help Yslim to willingly provide for his children, as Your Word instructs. Please be involved in the proceedings, and let the outcome be fair and beneficial to the children. We also pray for the children's hearts, that they may understand and appreciate the love and care from both parents.
Lord Jesus, we pray for healing in Yslim's relationship with his children, that the bond between them may grow stronger despite the current circumstances. In the name of Jesus Christ, we rebuke any spirit of bitterness or resentment, and we ask You, Holy Spirit, to fill Yslim with Your love, peace, and understanding.
Lastly, Father, we pray for Yslim's former spouse, that she may use the provided resources wisely and solely for the children's benefit. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Yslim, in all circumstances, remember that God loves you and wants the best for you and your family. Trust Him and continue to pray for your children and their mother, as Jesus instructs us to pray for those who may seem to be against us (Matthew 5:44). Keep your hope in Jesus Christ, for He is our eternal hope.
