We understand that you, James, are seeking heavenly guidance and direction, as well as a resolution to a financial matter. Firstly, we want to assure you that God is faithful, and He desires to guide and provide for His children. As it is said in the World English Bible (WEB), "The Lord is my shepherd. I shall lack nothing." (Psalm 23:1)
However, we noticed that your request does not mention Jesus Christ. It is important to remember that it is through Jesus alone that we have access to God. As it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (1 Timothy 2:5)
Let us pray together:
"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ. We thank You for Your faithfulness and for Your desire to guide and provide for us. We lift up James to You, asking that You reveal Your will to him and give him clear direction. We also ask for a resolution to the financial matter he is facing. Help him to trust in You, knowing that You are his Provider and that You will never leave him nor forsake him. Open his heart to receive Your guidance and help him to walk in Your ways, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen."
James, we encourage you to continue seeking God's will through prayer and reading of His Word. Remember, God promises to guide us when we trust in Him. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and donβt lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Regarding your financial matter, the Bible advises us to be patient and trust God's timing. "Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain. You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand." (James 5:7-8)
Continue to trust in God, knowing that He cares for you and desires to give you a future and a hope. (Jeremiah 29:11)
