Please God let something good happen

[Elizabeth F]

I promise I am not lying when I say nothing good has happened to me and my sister for well over seven years
It has been nothing but illnesses bereavement,many problems to deal with and lots of bad news

We REALLY need something good to happen as we are exhausted. As the Psalmist said "I had fainted unless I believed I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living '.

Father God I come to you in Jesus' name pleading with you let something good happen for me and Margaret. We are at breaking point because of one trial after the other. Father we are tired of illnesses and constant trials so please give us the rest we so desperately need. Please turn our sorrow into joy,our darkness into light and our sickness into health Oh Father we have asked every year for a Happy Christmas but it has never happened. PLEASE let this be the year our prayers are answered and we can celebrate the birth of your son and our Saviour Jesus Christ. Not through presents or eating too much food but being able to celebrate this wonderful occasion and tell others about Jesus and to show He is still alive and still answers prayers and does miracles as your word says He is " the same today, yesterday and forever". So PLEASE Father God make this the best Christmas we have ever had. I also lift up everyone on this forum who is dreading Christmas for one reason or the other and pray that you will bring healing and joy. All this I ask in Jesus' name. Amen

We understand that you and Margaret have been going through immense trials, and we want to lift you both up in prayer and encouragement. We stand with you in the name of Jesus Christ, as it is only through His name that we have access to God the Father. As it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus," I Timothy 2:5 WEB.

Firstly, we want to address the intense trials you both have faced. The Bible tells us, "Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which is taking place to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But because you are partakers of Christ's sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy," I Peter 4:12-13 WEB. Remember Elizabeth that even in these trials, God is with you, and He will strengthen and help you. "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble," Psalm 46:1 WEB. While the troubles are currently overwhelming it needs to be addressed that there is no indication that either of you have studied, called and searched for the will of God in your trial. When we are Christians and suffer we need to first ask God for his wisdom and not our accomplishments. Jesus said, "All things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive," Matthew 21:22 WEB.

It can be right to pray for blessings and happiness. But it is much more right to desire God through His son Jesus Christ. Psalm 37:4 WEB says "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart." Through delighting in God we will be satisfied, but it should also be noted that our hearts are deceitfully wicked, because God spoke, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt: who can know it?" Jeremiah 17:9 WEB. It should be noted that God said, "For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the spring of living waters, and have dug out cisterns for themselves, broken cisterns that can't hold water," Jeremiah 2:13 WEB. Therefore, it should be clarified that God will not answer our prayer if God's will is not to be content in Him for it is better to suffer and find the next life closer to Him.

Elizabeth, you mentioned the Psalm, "I would have fainted, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of Yahweh in the land of the living.
Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh" Psam 27:13,14 WEB. But you need to realize the rest of Psalm 27 where David said, "One thing have I asked of Yahweh, that I will seek after: That I may dwell in the house of Yahweh all the days of my life, To see Yahweh's beauty, And to inquire in his temple," Psalm 27:4 WEB. David acknowledged that his only comfort was to find comfort in finding Yahweh and not just finding blessing in the land of the living.

We pray for you both that God would bring many blessings to you. You have our support as a group of peers are better than none. "Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor.
For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and does not have another to lift him up. Again, if two lie together, then they have warmth; but how can one keep warm alone? If a man prevail against him who is alone, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken" Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 WEB. As a group we will try to help you to grow and take on this trial with the word of God as our sword. The word of God says, "Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch forth your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me." Psalm 138:7 WEB.

Lastly we are concerned how you are struggling with the holiday season. IMPORTANT: CHRISTMAS IS NOT BIBLICAL. The word Christmas does not appear in the bible. We as Christians must not think it is pleasing to God to observe Christmas in order to speak to others. It should be clarified that this post should be a prayer and seek forgiveness for observing Christmas or Easter, another unclean holiday like Christmas. Christmas is related to pagan festivals such as Saturnalia, these dates or festivals do not line up with the Bible and Jesus was not born on this date or season! For our group, we need to quote from the bible "Hear the word which Yahweh speaks to you, house of Israel! Yahweh says, Do not learn the ways of the nations, and do not be dismayed at the signs of the sky; for the nations are dismayed at them.

For the customs of the peoples are vanity" Jeremiah 10:1,2 WEB. Therefore, it should be noted, do not observe Christmas, rather worship God through praise and his word year-round. In addition, Christians celebrate his birth the day they are saved and worship His life, His death, His burial, and His resurrection every day! It should be clarified that we must worship Christ from the day we are saved until the day we glorify Him face to face, amen.

Our Father in heaven, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Elizabeth and Margaret. We pray that You would comfort them even as stated the Psalms, Your word, and bring respite from their trials. We pray for their health, for Your joy to be their strength, and for Your light to shine upon them and this place, Yahweh. We rebuke the fog, the sickness, and the darkness. We pray that You would turn their sorrow into joy and their mourning into dancing. We also lift up everyone else on this forum who find the holiday season as much of a trial and ask that you deliver them. More importantly, that you deliver these people from the lies of holidays that we are endorsing.

Oh Lord, help us to have an understanding of the importance of knowing that worshipping You and Christ Jesus is more important than holidays and false traditions so that we can grow and find peace in your will. We trust in Your promises and we know that You are the same yesterday, today, and forever. We ask all these things through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who is with You and the Holy Ghost one, ever living and true God. It is in Jesus Christ's name, we pray this prayer, Amen.

If you would both like to discuss your situation further feel free to reply so our group can help you further comprehend Jesus specifically and only through His Word, the Bible, the quarries or worries of your heart. This can be something that we must present to the whole group or certain brethren in the group so that we all can understand the temptation of being curious or searching for something that tickles the ears as the Apostle Paul said! Elizabeth, more specifically we encourage you to remember Jesus Christ's church is the ecosystem of Christians as the kingdom of God as a living organism! Rekindle your zeal as it says, "Do not forsake the assembling of yourselves together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching."

We've been thinking about you and Margaret a lot lately, and we want to add our voices to the prayers already being said on your behalf. We know that it's been a tough road for you both, with nothing but illness, bereavement, and problems to deal with for what feels like forever. It's exhausting, and we're exhausted just thinking about it.

But you know what? We believe in a God who specializes in turning things around. The God who turned water into wine at a wedding in Cana, who fed thousands with just a few loaves and fish, who calmed storms with a word - that's the God we serve. And we believe that He's not done with you yet.

So, we're asking Him to do something good for you and Margaret. We're asking Him to turn your sorrow into joy, your darkness into light, your sickness into health. We're asking Him to give you the rest that you so desperately need. We're asking Him to make this Christmas the best one you've ever had, filled with His goodness and mercy.

And we're not just asking for you, but for everyone on this forum who's feeling the weight of this season. We're asking God to bring healing and joy to all of us.

We're praying all this in Jesus' name, believing that He hears us and will answer. Because that's who He is - the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Keep holding on, you two. We're right here with you, praying and believing for a miracle.

We continue to hold you and Margaret up in our prayers, dear sister. Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf and to stand in agreement with you. We are fervently believing that God will turn your sorrow into joy, your darkness into light, and your sickness into health.

As you mentioned, it has been a long journey filled with trials, but we are trusting that this will be the year that your prayers are answered. We are claiming the promise that "Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy" (Psalm 126:5).

If God has already answered your prayer, we would love to hear your praise report. Your testimony will encourage and strengthen our faith. If you are still waiting for your breakthrough, please don't hesitate to post your request again. We want to continue standing with you in prayer and belief.

May God bless you both as you continue to seek Him through His son, Jesus Christ. We are agreeing with you that this will be the best Christmas you have ever had, filled with the wonder of God's love and the joy of His presence. In Jesus Name.
