I'm a guy, almost 40, single, abandoned ...

Jonathan B.

Humble Prayer Partner
I'm a guy, almost 40, single, abandoned by my family and with no friends and I really need the prayer as I'm struggling right now. Please pray for God to be the father that I've never had but always desired, please pray for Him to show me His love, protection, mercy, grace, and blessings.

I'll try my best to keep this short. I was small for my age, had a learning disability, was over two years behind my peer group with my hormonal development, and always tried to go against the flow to do what God wanted me too. Because of those things and I guess I was an easy target because I was and am very tenderhearted, I was bullied by my peers, teachers, and even at church for my whole childhood, during this time and up into my late twenties until I severed ties with him my dad was verbally, emotionally, and spiritually abusive to my mom and I. Even after taking a full time job I stayed at home because seeing his increasing violence made me fearful for my mom's safety. Long story short my dad admitted under oath that he had heard voices in the middle of the night telling him to get a butcher knife and to kill my mom and I in our sleep. He still to this day sends me birthday and Christmas cards telling me that I'm going to hell for helping my mom and for setting my boundaries with him.

I've gotten counsel from several trusted pastors and a psychologist who have helped me understand the importance of removing myself from that toxic environment. That said, I continue to be bullied at work despite a co-worker and I going to our manager who does nothing about the situation. I'm stuck in a house that I purchased hastily right before the crash in 2008 that leaks when it rains and that I don't have the money to fix and get out of... There's quite a bit more that out of brevity I'll leave out because I think this should paint the picture...

Let me preface by saying that I have very, very few memories from childhood all the way into my 30's...

In all of this I've found out that I have something called Complex PTSD. Here's a link to an article: https://flyingfreenow.com/emotional-spiritual-abuse-causes-c_ptsd/

In all of this I really need to see God work on my behalf... I need to see and experience His protection for me... I need healing... I need to see some of my broken dreams, hopes, and good desires resurrected. And, I need to know that I'm not going to be totally and completely alone on this earth when the time comes for my mom to go be with Jesus.

According to the "love languages" survey my primary and overwhelming one is physical affection, followed closely by quality time. One of the few memories that I have is playing outside by myself at 5 or 6 years old, singing the praise songs that we sang at church, and praying for God to bring me just one real friend... I remember even then knowing the desire to have a wife and children of my own as well... Knowing that if that friend was someone that I could be affectionate with that I wanted it to be a girl. Long story short, I've been praying for that for around 35 years without answer... I thought I had that once but, evidently God had other plans and took her away from me...

In all of this I get the usual encouragement... God will do something for you soon! Everything will get better!!! Don't worry, God loves you and He'll be your father and show you His love... Remember Romans 8:28... And yes, I have read the verses where Jesus says that if we just ask in His name that God will do it for us, I keep seeing the verses where Jesus talks about the child asking for bread and fish, and I have read about God being a father to the fatherless and giving us the desires of our hearts... I've known, had faith, trusted, and believed that He can do anything by just saying the word since I was a child... I've looked at God as my one and only "superhero" with all power... But, as the years and decades go by, and more and more horrible things happen I'm losing hope. I'll be 40 on March 7th and I'll be honest, I'm really starting to feel that those biblical promises don't pertain to me. I guess it's hard when you see those around you blessed beyond belief and taking it all for granted while your hopes and dreams are all broken and scattered as you get older and realize that those things were dependent on your youth...

I keep hearing and reading words, words, words... but, I've gotten to a place where I've suffered for so long that I need action... words are hollow and meaningless without seeing action from them and that's where I am right now...

Please pray for me!!!

Merry Christmas to you all!!!
 
Praying with and for you in Jesus.

We can do everything Jesus did and more! We can speak; sickness leave in Jesus! Be healed by Jesus stripes! I am healed by Jesus stripes! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!

You can copy and paste this to pray every day and share...

There is nothing that happens for us that is bad. All things work for our good in Jesus! Look at everything as good!

Sing through out your days Thank You Jesus, Praise You Jesus, Glory to You Lord Jesus or anything that is on your heart to sing to Jesus! It doesn't matter how we sound, Angels will join in with us and Jesus will join in with us as well as fight for us, knock down walls for us, open locks for us, save people for us, evil will flee from us, He heals us and He will over flow His Holy Peace in us.

Praying for others on here and reading your Bible will help you tremendously.

I wanted to commit suicide once, I even came up with a plan. Right before I headed out the door I posted a prayer on here and hoping there might be help from God one last time I opened the Bible and only read take no thought for your life. I read that before at least 100 times but never really could understand how. This time I took it to heart, all right God I will end my life by not thinking about it. I take no thought, I take no thought, I take no thought over and over and over again I take no thought was my only thought that day. All of a sudden I noticed something, Jesus showed up, all my pains were gone, no neck ache, no back pain, no leg pain from many many accidents I had over the years and no pain in my heart as my wife had left me. I started singing praises and thanks to Jesus and my life has never been the same. It is our obedience to God from His Holy Instructions that makes a difference to His Power of His Promises in our lives.

Be a doer of Jesus friend, it really makes a difference! Thank You Lord Jesus!

Search the Bible for Jesus' Promises friend, do them and claim them in Jesus! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!

Powerful healing promise hidden in Proverbs 3:7-8, I am not wise in my own eyes, I fear You Lord, I depart from evil, especially my own evil thoughts and my flesh is healed and my body is refreshed in Jesus.

Praying for others especially in your situation will help you tremendously in yours friend.

Take no thought for your life dear friend and Jesus will take thought for you. Sing praises and thanks to Jesus and He will overflow His Holy Spirit in you and so much more. He will fight for you and give you the desires of your heart.

Pray this prayer look up the verses and pray it again with your friends and family and let's mount up with wings as eagles and soar. Soar with me.

Let Us Pray: God I ask in Jesus' name, bless me to grow closer to You. I long for a more intimate relationship with You. God I take You at Your Word, if I will draw closer to You, You will draw closer to me (James 4:8). Show me how to draw closer to You. Bless me daily to cast off and forsake my thoughts and ways for my life, and exchange them for Your thoughts and ways for my life. Let me think Your thoughts and dream Your dreams for my life. God bless me to live and walk in Your love, mercy and forgiveness (Isaiah 55:7). I confess, I will take no thought for my life. I will trust You Father God to take thought for me and take care of me (Mathew 6:25-34). I will not be wise in my own eyes, I will fear You Lord and depart from evil and my flesh will be healed and my body will be refreshed (Proverbs 3:7-8) daily. Thank You Jesus for Your Promises! Lord make me the Child of God You need me to be in Christ for all those around me and for the world to see (Psalms 128:3). Not by my might, nor by my power, but by Your Spirt Christ Jesus (Zechariah 4:6) this shall happen. And it will happen, it is happening now in Your timing, Power, Strength, Might, and Spirit, Christ Jesus. God all that I have asked of you in this prayer please do the same for all those I love, care about, and every faithful prayer warrior on this site. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You Lord Jesus, my Savior and Lord for answering this prayer with a Yes and Amen.

Bless us to sing praises and thanks to You Lord Jesus so You can fill us with the wine of the Spirit in Jesus Name, Amen.
 
Let us pray...

"Father, Your eyes are in every place, everywhere. And you see all that is Good and all that is not, at all times. When forces seem to be working against me, I tend to take matters into my own hands rather than turning it over to You. Or, at the time, I think that I have turned it over to You, but I really have not because I have continued to breed worry, doubt, fear and anger. I know better than this. I do! And yet I still use my free will to take complete control without consulting You or inviting You to help me.
Father, I realize when I choose to take the reins alone, that I have stepped away from co-Creating with You. When I find myself in the midst of dealing with energy that is not of You, my desire is to always be mindful to turn it directly over to You and to trust that You have my back. That You will stretch forth Your Loving Hand and protect me without hesitation or reservation.
I invite You Father, into the totality of my Life, to help me get to the place that You desire me to be. Thank You Father, thank You so very much for protecting me even when I have had a momentary lapse of reason. My heart goes out to Your Divine Thoughtfulness and Goodness.
You are the Best! Your Beloved Son Jesus said, 'If ye shall ask anything in My name, I will do it.' Therefore, through Jesus Christ's Precious, Pure and Holy Name, I pray this prayer. Amen~"

Friend don't despair. Our God is limitless. Our ways are not His ways ,I'm a woman next month I will be 49 but still have hopes of meeting the right person and have a family. Right now living in uAE ,no job, no visa, no money any time I can become homeless ,I'm scared but deep inside I know God is in control and will take care of me .so brother take heart ,let God's love and grace be sufficient .the battle was already worn
 
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.
