Disciple of Prayer
I need urgent prayers for deliverance, my troubles started when I informed my family that I was ready to get married and subsequently paid Lobola for my wife. My mother in particular – hated the fact that I was now set on venturing on my own to start my own family as up to that point I had been sustaining the whole family and had even built them the house they now live in at this moment.
After just over a year of engagement in December 2013, I moved out of our place of residence after my family members made it clear that they hate my fiancée. An example of this was displayed in particular by my mother when we announced to the family that we were 3 months pregnant – she immediately fell ill despite the fact that she had been in a jovial mood just prior to us making the announcement.
To my dismay, they continued to be offish towards us as we ventured out on our own to start our new family. In the meantime, I was having nightmares about dogs and I was even warned that I should be very careful when I am around them as they wanted to harm my fiancée and our baby and so I kept my distance from them. We got married a couple of weeks before our baby was born in May 2014 and it was a very momentous occasion in my life, although it was a small occasion conducted by a marriage officer – needless to say that my family was not part of the event. What startled me was that when I phoned my mother to inform her that the baby was born, she told me that my uncle had passed away earlier that very same morning. I thank the Lord our God, for preserving our baby from their evil deeds as I believe that they had performed witchcraft to try and kill our baby but one of them died instead.
I was then dismissed from my place of work in September of the same year under dubious circumstances despite having worked there for over 8 years. I took my case to the ccma but experienced great pain in that process as firstly the commissioners showed a great bias towards my employers and then when I was eventually able to secure an attorney to represent me; he inexplicably was a no show despite having told me that he was on his way. His representatives then told me that he had not come as thought that the chances of success had been slim – a complete contradiction of what we had discussed prior to the case. I subsequently lost the case and those that conspired against me at work had a filled day. This one event in particular really hurt me as it was against a prophecy I had received from a Man of God. Up to this day I still wonder how it is possible for prophecy from a Prophet of God would not come through. I came another company of lawyers who offered to help me in this case but I do not have the required funds to be able to acquire their help as they requested that I deposit R 3000.00 to their account for them to be able to assist me.
I took the money received for my pension to buy a side tipper trailer, to work on mines, I was excited when the trailer came as I was under the impression that it would alleviate a lot of the financial strain we were under as it would bring us a steady income whilst I continued to look for other employment. This was a very naïve view from me as firstly the people who rented my trailer refused to pay me and changed my tyres for inferior ones; then when I took the trailer from them I then partnered with someone who had very little regard for me as partner and subsequently drove his truck with my trailer to a destination about 600 Km from where we had agreed he would work; unfortunately he did not reach his destination as his truck broke down with a gearbox problem. He claimed that he did not have money to repair the problem and eventually got one of the farmers to keep the truck and trailer for him in his farm. When it was time for us to get paid for the loads he had done prior to the truck breaking down – it emerged that instead of us getting money he was actually owing the people for whom he was working and what’s more he did not even have a contract with them. My trailer stayed at the farm for a total of about 3 months. I then met a couple who offered to rent the trailer from me which I gladly accepted but when they were supposed to take the trailer they then told me that the trailer was in a horrible state and that they would incur a lot of costs to get it running again so they offered to buy it instead; they would pay in installments with the first installment due at the end of December 2015. It was not the best deal in the world but it offered me a chance to keep my head above water. It is almost the end of March now and to date I have only received one payment from them, even then it was a short-payment on the amount we had agreed upon. Once again my hands are tied as I do not have the means to enforce the contract I signed with them.
I have been called to just one interview ever since I was dismissed from work but they never phoned me back for a follow-up interview. I was promised by my cousin last year that she would help me get to work for her company as they were in need of staff but nothing came out of that promise – she has now promised that she will put in a good word for my wife, who is also unemployed, I do not know what shall come out of it this time but we live in hope that the God of Israel will one day come through for us. For the last 6 months I have been trying to broker deals whereby I would get commission for trucks for which I would secure work. Up to now it has been an uphill struggle as I have experienced everything from people lying about having trucks, to a truck having an accident on it’s way to going on site, and on the few occasions that the trucks have actually arrived on site I have come across an incompetent transport manage, people who have circumvented me or problems with the mine. At present I have 12 trucks on site that have been waiting to load for a week – the latest promise that has been made is that they shall load on Tuesday this week. I pray that the Lord remember me and the promises He has made to me.
I am even scared to answer my phone or open mail as I do not know what to say to my creditors anymore. I have exhausted all options in as far as securing finance and providing for my family is concerned. I have been a failure for the last year and a half. I have made numerous prayers to no avail. I have asked many Christian websites for prayer some have responded, others have not but still the only change I have experienced so far is me sinking deeper into financial trouble, the bank is threatening to repossess a property I had bought as an investment property as well as a stand I had intended to build our house on and as long as I am not getting any income I cannot do much except to make them promises of when I hope to able to pay them – promises I may not be able to keep. The other creditors have probably listed me on the creditors’ burea by now but I cannot do much about that as my biggest concern right now as about being able to feed my family.
I do not what good can come out of this misery – if any. But I believe God can redeem from this situation as He recently brought into my spirit Jeremiah 29:11 but please let me know when this suffering will end and what state I shall be in then. Why would God allow my enemies to triumph over me and to have over-filled joy at my expense? Both my family and those at work would be delighted if they saw the anguish that I am suffering at this present moment – I would definitely be their laughing stalk. Where is the justice of God? Why will He not hear my prayers and supplications? I am in pain where is the healer that so correctly stated that “it is the sick that need a physician”? I feel as though He has forsaken me even though it says in His word that “He will be with me unto the ends of the end”. I have received other prophecies which have not materialised and I do not understand why God would move His men to give me prophecies which He knows will not happen. I feel like the Prophet Jeremiah in a way when he enquires as to why God would send him out to fail and subsequently said that he doesn’t want to have anything to do with him “but His word was like a burning spear”. Please come to my aid, My Messiah.
