Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Bernarde to Your throne of grace. Lord, we ask that You work in Bernarde's heart, removing any pride and boastfulness that may be present. We pray that You humble him, Lord, and bring him to a place of repentance and humility.
Father, we ask that You intervene in his job as a future trader. If it is not in alignment with Your will, we pray that You cause the stocks and futures he is investing in to fail, so that he may recognize his need for You and turn away from any prideful ways. Lord, let this be a lesson that draws him closer to You and helps him understand the importance of humility and respect for others.
We also pray for Bernarde's employment situation. Lord, if it is Your will, do not grant him another full-time job until he has learned to humble himself and treat others with kindness and respect. Let him experience the same challenges and discrimination he has shown to others, so that he may grow in empathy and understanding. When the time is right, Lord, provide him with a temporary job that will further teach him humility and reliance on You.
Father, we also lift up Dexter2020, who has been affected by Bernarde's actions. We ask for Your provision and strength as Dexter2020 works from contract to contract to make ends meet. Bless Dexter2020 with opportunities and favor, and let Your peace and grace abound in their life.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
