Off to ###?

Bemenra · Aug 19, 2024

I have requested prayers on here many times and I say thank you to anyone and everyone who has brought my situation before the throne room of grace & mercy. I’ve been pleading with God to open a door back to ###. On July 28, I was offered a job teaching school and coaching basketball. I just knew everything else would flow into place but it did not. I could not get a vehicle and I do not have a place to live, I have a plane leaving today at 4:30 or so. I am so torn and last night I had so much anxiety in my body. I could literally land in ### and be homeless at 12:30 in the morning. I’ve contacted the homeless shelter and am prepared to live there and walk to the school until I can get a vehicle. I was prepared to live in a vehicle for one to three months, but there were so many issues like how long I’ve been at my job and did I have a house in ### that prevented me from getting a vehicle at the current time. I feel like I am in the boat, and Jesus is in the water motioning for me to come out of the boat. I feel like moving to ### with no vehicle and no home could be an act of faith. Every ounce of me wants to cancel my flight and go back to my dad’s house in ###. However, because of the prayers on this thread and others around the world, I suddenly feel the strength to finish packing and to make the flight I do not know what’s gonna happen at 12:15 AM. I love my wife and children deeply and I miss them terribly; it’s been almost 2 years. I hope that God is working to get me back to them. I can only imagine if my wife were to suddenly call me and want to reconcile when the plane landed, that would be incredible. People say God is all about timing, I can’t imagine better timing than that. I hope! Please continue to pray that God will guide me and leave me to everything that I need. Please continue to pray for my wife ### that she will soften her heart and make a way for reconciliation. Thank you.

We understand your dilemma, ###, and we stand with you in prayer, seeking God's will for your life. We are reminded of the story of Peter walking on water, called by Jesus in the midst of the storm. As you've mentioned, it feels like you're being asked to step out of the boat in faith (Matthew 14:22-33, WEB).

Firstly, we commend you for your faith and willingness to take a step into the unknown. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1, WEB). However, we must also ensure that our steps are guided by the Lord. Remember that God promises to direct our paths if we trust in Him with all our heart and do not lean on our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB).

We also note your mention of family. We are praying fervently for the reconciliation of your marriage, as God's design for marriage is a lifelong union between a man and a woman (Matthew 19:4-6, WEB). We pray that God would soften your wife's heart and bring about a reconciliation that honors Him.

Let us pray together:

"Lord Jesus, we come before You, lifting up ### and his family. We thank You for the opportunities You've placed before him, and we ask for Your clear guidance. If it is Your will for him to go to ###, we pray for a miraculous provision of a home and a vehicle. If not, give him the courage to wait on Your timing.

We also lift up ###'s marriage. We pray for a softening of hearts, for healing, and for restoration. We ask that You would bring about a reconciliation that honors You, Lord.

We pray all these things in Your holy name, Jesus. Amen."

We also encourage you, ###, to seek the Lord in all your decisions. Ensure that your steps are guided by Him and that your faith is rooted in His word. Remain steadfast in prayer and in the study of His word. If you haven't already, we encourage you to seek godly counsel from pastors or spiritual mentors in your life.

Lastly, we notice that your request does not mention the name of Jesus. We want to remind you that it is by His name that we have access to God, and it is by His name that we are saved (John 14:6, WEB; Acts 4:12, WEB). We encourage you to place your trust in Jesus, the only mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB).

We're right there with you, ###. We've been praying for you and your situation, believing that God has a plan and a purpose in all this. We know it's tough, feeling like you're stepping out into the unknown, but remember, God is with you every step of the way. He's called you to this, and He'll equip you for it.

We've been praying for your family too. We believe in the power of prayer, and we're asking God to soften hearts and bring about reconciliation. We're trusting that He's working behind the scenes, even when we can't see it.

We want to encourage you to keep trusting in God. He's got this. Keep seeking Him, keep praying, and keep stepping out in faith. Remember, even when it feels like you're on your own, you're not. You've got us, and more importantly, you've got God.

We're praying for you, ###. We're praying for a smooth journey, for provision, and for a heart softened to welcome you home. We're praying for your family, for healing, and for restoration. We're praying all these things in Jesus' name. Amen.

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.
