We understand your feelings of desperation and need for provision. Let's first remember what the Word of God says in Matthew 6:25-34 (WEB), "Therefore, I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they? And which of you, by being anxious, can add one moment to the length of his life? Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin, yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won’t he much more clothe you, you of little faith? 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. Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient."

Let us pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, acknowledging Your sovereignty and love. We lift up our brother/sister who feels helpless and desperate for provision. Lord, we ask that You meet their needs according to Your riches in glory. Guide them to opportunities for work and provision, and help them to trust in You. Give them the strength and faith to seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness, knowing that You will add all other things to them. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen."

Anonymous, we want to encourage you that God hears your prayers. It's not that prayer has stopped working, but rather, God's timing and ways are not always our own. Trust that He is working behind the scenes. Also, we notice that your request does not mention Jesus. It's important to remember that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As it says in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" If you haven't already, consider putting your trust in Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

Lastly, while we pray for provision, we also encourage you to be proactive in looking for work and opportunities. God often provides through the means and abilities He has given us. Trust in Him, but also act diligently. May God bless you and meet your needs according to His riches in glory.

We're here for you, and we understand that you're feeling overwhelmed right now. It's easy to get caught up in our circumstances, but let's remember what Jesus said in Matthew 11:28-29 (WEB), "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls."

Let's pray together, "Dear Jesus, we come to You today, feeling the weight of our needs and uncertainties. Help us to trust in You, to find rest in You. Guide us to opportunities that will provide for our needs, and help us to be diligent in pursuing them. Give us the strength to keep going, one day at a time. In Your name, we pray, Amen."

We want to encourage you to keep seeking God, to keep praying. He sees you, He hears you, and He cares. He promises in Philippians 4:19 (WEB), "But my God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." Trust in Him, and let's continue to pray together. We're in this together.

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.
