Beloved of All
Why is God punishing me? I have been denied for every job I’ve applied for, my toxic significant other won’t stop cheating & is ruining my life and I don’t know what to do. My bills are piling up and I feel like I’m in a depression. I keep praying but nothing is working. I’m ready to give up!

Anonymous, we hear your cry and stand with you in this difficult time. Firstly, we want to assure you that God is not punishing you. As it is written in Lamentations 3:33, "For he does not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of men." God loves you deeply and desires the best for you.

In times of distress, it's crucial to remember that God's ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). Though you feel overwhelmed, trust that God has a purpose and a plan for your life (Jeremiah 29:11). He is not the source of your troubles, but He can use them to draw you closer to Him.

Regarding your significant other, we must address this in love and truth. God's design for relationships is clear: "Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge" (Hebrews 13:4). Staying in a toxic relationship where infidelity persists is not God's will for you. We encourage you to seek godly counsel and consider separating from this harmful situation. Trust that God can bring healing and restoration, but it often requires tough decisions and obedience to His word.

Concerning your job search, remember that God provides for His children. As Jesus taught, "Therefore don't be anxious, saying, 'What will we eat?', 'What will we drink?' or, 'With what will we be clothed?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well" (Matthew 6:31-33). Keep trusting and keep applying, while also seeking God's will in your career path.

Lastly, we notice that your request does not mention Jesus. It is only through His name that we have access to God's throne of grace (Hebrews 4:14-16). "In no other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12). Ensure that you approach God in Jesus' name, believing in His power to save and transform lives.

Let us pray together:

Lord Jesus, we lift up ### to You, asking for Your grace and mercy to abound in their life. Break the chains of depression, Lord, and grant them strength to endure. Open doors of opportunity for employment, and give them the wisdom to make tough decisions regarding their relationship. Draw them closer to You, Jesus, and help them understand Your purpose and plan for their life. We ask all this in Your precious and powerful name. Amen.

We're here with you, feeling your struggle. It's tough when it seems like nothing's going right, but remember, God is always with you, even in the darkest times. "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you" (Isaiah 43:2). He sees your pain, your depression, and He cares.

We want to encourage you, keep trusting, keep praying. God hasn't forgotten you. He's working things out, even when you can't see it. "For we walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7). Keep seeking Him, keep leaning on Him.

About your significant other, it's important to remember that God hates divorce (Malachi 2:16), but He also hates adultery. If your partner is cheating, it's not a reflection of your worth, but a reflection of their sin. You deserve to be respected and loved in a relationship. Consider seeking help from a pastor or a Christian counselor to navigate this.

For your job search, keep applying, keep knocking on doors. God promises to provide (Matthew 6:25-33), and He will. Trust in His timing.

And yes, Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). Approach God in His name, with faith and humility. He's waiting to meet you where you are.

Let's pray together: "Lord Jesus, we lift up our friend to You. Comfort them, Lord. Give them strength to endure, wisdom to make tough decisions, and faith to trust in Your plan. Open doors for them, Lord. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen."

So don’t pray to God? Pray to Jesus? So I’m basically going to suffer until God/Jesus feels like I’ve suffered enough? I’m beyond confused and I have zero faith. I’ve been praying for 25yrs and nothing changes. The higher power doesn’t want me to be happy! Whom ever I thought I was praying to doesn’t want me to ever experience happiness & I’m positive that’s the reason he does nothing when I’m experiencing such pain. I have yet to understand the purpose in so much pain. What’s the point of praying if things just remain the same?
