Ballyren

Disciple of Prayer
Hi,

So I have posted twice before about this, I'll copy the info in below under 'PREVIOUS PRAYER REQUESTS'.

Basically, I didn't get the job I interviewed for last week (my first interview in forever). They said I was a good candidate, but because it was an afternoon/evening shift, and public transport becomes super sketchy/unavailable at those times, and I don't have a car (too poor), they didn't want to take the risk that I wouldn't turn up.

That's understandable, although unhelpful.

To make matters worse, I had to take a day off work to travel to the interview.

As a result, the recruitment agency I am employed by is punishing me by only giving me 3x half days of work this week. (Even the usual 5x half days is not enough for me to pay rent.)

So, it's almost certain now that I will get evicted as my rent falls further into arrears. And with no family, and nowhere to go, that is a devastating option.

I have looked at the cheapest possible accommodation I could think of - moving into a dirty, low quality hostel - but in my city, they cost more than my current rent, lol.

Almost all my bills - electricity, gas, water, internet, phone - I keep missing the payments on.

I'm drowning here, even though I'm working as much as I can.

(And my job is not that easy - I travel a four hour round trip to do four hours of hard labouring (the company has squashed the entire shift into four hours because they are losing money and can't afford for us to work longer, so we have to work like crazy or else you don't get rostered for the next day).)

I've also been studying part-time at uni for the last few years, to try and improve my future. But I don't have enough money to continue paying for the course. This will likely mean that I need to drop out - because you have to make enough academic progress every semester to satisfy the rules, but I could only pay for one subject this semester.
(I originally registered for 3/4 subjects this semester, and had until end of March to pay, but as I came under spiritual attack, my job reduced my work and I could only pay for 1, and now I can pay for no more...).)

This means the last few years of my life in which I have bee applying myself to study will all have been for nothing.

I am reminded of Christ in the boat, when the waves picked up and the disciples started to freak out, and he told them to chill, saying they had to just have faith.

Except ... in my case, I entire life is being trashed and is going to zero in every way.

How long will the Father wait to act? Will he wait until I am homeless, in debt, dropped out of my studies, have nothing?

How is it helpful to have a God like this?

I am so over praying for help, and trying to withstand this spiritual attack so that the devil will flee.

My life started badly, and has only seemed to get worse. This has caused me to reflect and realize that God has never raised me up in any way. So why should I keep trying to withstand the spiritual attack for a God who is always silent, and who doesn't seem to care about me?

As the title of my post says, I am getting to the end of my tether. Why should I keep walking with Him if he never acts for my good?

Thank you if you have read this far.

And thank you for your prayers.

PREVIOUS RELATED PRAYER REQUESTS

Original prayer request:

In 2023, I sought the Lord in prayer, asking Him daily about how I could serve Him. This was my first time so boldly asking God this. He gave me His answer at the very end of 2023, and I made a decision in my heart to commit to doing it. Cue 2024 starts and I start undergoing a spiritual attack. I've been through minor spiritual attacks before, but this is the most comprehensive attack I've experienced by many orders of magnitude. Every has been going wrong - relationships, work, finances, and for the first time in my life, I have been given an eviction warning. I'm currently 12 days in arrears because my company reduced my hours severely and I haven't been able to find more work. The rental company said if I get to 14 days behind, they will evict me. I'm a pretty stubborn guy, but it's May now, and this spiritual attack shows now signs of stopping, even though I continue to resist the devil. Prayer would be greatly appreciated.

Update:

I have a job interview tomorrow, and if I get the job it will be me more working hours and enable me to pay off my rent arrears, and all my overdue bills etc..

This couldn't come sooner, as my finances have even worsened since I made my original prayer request above. I had been paying weekly rent, although, due to my reduced hours this year, not enough, hence the arrears build up. But last week I wasn't even able to pay any rent.

Hence, I am closer to eviction than ever.

I really need to do well in this interview and get this job. I am very nervous because there is so much pressure on me to do well in this interview.

I have no family, so if I get evicted, there will be nowhere for me to go.

I request your prayers that my interview goes very well, and that I can start my new job next week. But ultimately, that the Father's will be done.

Thank you, and may you be blessed.
 
Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Ballyren and their current struggles. Lord, You see the challenges they are facing with employment, finances, and their education. We ask for Your divine intervention and provision in their life.

Father, Your Word says in Philippians 4:19, "And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus." We pray that You would provide Ballyren with a stable job that meets their needs and offers reliable transportation options. Open doors that no man can shut and grant them favor with employers.

Lord, we also ask for Your provision in their financial situation. Help them to catch up on their rent and bills, and provide a way for them to continue their education. We know that You are Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, and we trust in Your ability to supply all their needs.

In Matthew 6:33, You remind us to seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness, and all these things will be given to us as well. Help Ballyren to keep their eyes on You and trust in Your perfect plan for their life.

We pray for peace and comfort during this difficult time. Surround them with Your love and support, and guide them with Your wisdom. May they feel Your presence and know that You are with them every step of the way.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
 
Praying with you and for you for this. May our Heavenly Father grant you strength and wisdom to endure all you are facing. I pray a better alternative will come where you will not have to lose your home. I pray for better paying opportunities to come your way. I know it can seem like God does not hear you but I believe he does. Don’t give up. God is with you and will never abandon you. Stay prayerful and strong in faith. Remember God loves you and is always with you. In the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen~
 
I went through the same process, I hated what he was doing to my life, if you persevere, it will slowly get better, hope you stay hopeful and strong within the process.
 
Hi,

About an hour after I posted this, I got my first ever eviction notice. They have given me two weeks (until 04 June) to pay: all rent arrears + the month of June, or be evicted.

Also, 03 June is the day of my first uni exam. It will be difficult to prepare and focus when facing homelessness the next day.

I thank you all from my heart for your prayers. This time would be a lot darker for me without them.

Andrew

When you are down to nothing, God is up to something.... The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps. (Proverbs 16:9)

I am going through something quite similar to you, where everything seems to be imploding in my life. I am trying to trust that things are happening (and things are not happening) for my good. Romans 8:28 says And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Sometimes it's hard to believe these words and take them in. I am learning that, as in Mathew 8:13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, 'Go! Let it be done just as you believed it would.

My core beliefs are not based on what God believes about me and what God sees in me, or wants for me. To change that takes a lot of energy, and trust in God himself. I choose to believe that the spiritual attack I am under is my motivation to change.

Beliefs I need to change:
people can be trusted, even though I didn't have that many trustworthy people in my family of origin. God is the One I ultimately need to trust, and then I will see the people in my life change. What is in me, will be mirrored outside of me.

I also need to trust that God works through people. No coincidences in the circumstances God has placed me in, where my relationships are concerned. Romans 12:6; However, he often chooses to use his people when he shows his kindness to other people. So, God works in and through his people. That is like a master who directs his servants in their work. The master may choose to show his kindness through the actions of his servants (Luke 14:21-24).

I will also share that forgiveness is a neglected part of my toolkit for resisting spiritual attack. It is an area I struggle with the most, because I am blind to the many times I have been forgiven. I have a double standard operating in the background of my mind. Hebrews 8:12 For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.

I am not quite sure why I am being so personal in this post... I can only trust that God wants people to see this. Not quite a prayer, but it is from my heart. I post anonymously so my ego doesn't get rewarded with sharing my truth. (Yep, I can go to 'wow, look at me' when I pray for and support others!)

I pray that you find peace with your circumstances, and an inner knowing that God is using the circumstances to change you and bring you closer to Him. It's not easy, but it is worthwhile... because If God is all you have, you have all you need. John 14:8.
