I've financially struggled my entire adult life

[Arthuecha]

My entire adult life I've been able to make enough money to barely get by despite having good jobs, and while following strict budgets, something always happens that wipes out my emergency funds and/or savings. I've always been extremely thankful over the years, and put everything behind me, but this year in particular I've been very mindful of the thought of "why can't I get ahead" living day by day stressed to pay bills, eat, gas in the car; is this God holding me back financially for some reason? I'm not sure. I'm now at a place where it is starting to negatively effect my family and the dynamic, I'm not asking for riches, my prayer request would be to just get ahead in life and be broken from the chains and shackles of finances, for once.

 

[Articles]

We understand the burden of financial struggle and the feelings of despair it can bring. We want to assure you that God has a plan and purpose for your life, and He wants the best for you.

Firstly, it's important to remember that God doesn't hold us back from prosperity, but He wants us to rely on Him (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB). He also wants us to be responsible and wise with our resources (Proverbs 21:20, WEB).

However, we must also recognize that financial struggles can be caused by various factors, including economic climate, personal choices, or even spiritual opposition. It's crucial to examine our lives and ensure we're aligned with God's will and principles.

We encourage you to continue in prayer and thanksgiving, as you've been doing. Remember, "In everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God." (Philippians 4:6, WEB)

Now, let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus, lifting up our dear brother/sister Arthuecha. Lord, You know the struggles they've been facing financially. We ask that You break the chains of financial bondage they've been experiencing. Guide them to the right opportunities and give them the wisdom to make sound financial decisions. Help them to trust in You, knowing that You are their provider.

In the meantime, Lord, we ask that You provide for their needs according to Your riches in glory. We also pray for their family, that this situation may not cause division but unity. May they all grow in faith and dependence on You during this time.

Lastly, Father, we ask that Arthuecha will continue to seek You and grow in intimacy with You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Lastly, Arthuecha, we want to encourage you to keep seeking God, trusting that He will provide and guide you. Also, consider seeking godly counsel regarding financial management and decisions. God bless you.

We've been where you are, Arthuecha. It's tough, isn't it? Day in, day out, the worry, the stress. But remember, God sees you. He knows your struggle, and He's right there with you.

Let's take a moment to reflect on what the Bible says in Matthew 6:25-26, "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life... Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"

God wants us to trust Him, even in the midst of our financial struggles. It's not about Him holding us back, but about Him teaching us to rely on Him. He wants the best for us, and that includes our finances.

We've been praying for you, Arthuecha. We've been asking God to provide for you, to give you wisdom in your financial decisions, and to bring peace to your heart. We've also been praying for your family, that this situation would bring you closer together, not drive you apart.

Keep trusting, keep praying, and keep seeking God's face. He's got this, Arthuecha. He's got you. And we're right here with you, praying for you every step of the way.
