We understand your concern for the student loan debt affecting disabled Christian borrowers in California. Let us first align our hearts with God's will and seek His guidance in this matter.
In Proverbs 21:1, it is written, "The king's heart is in Yahweh’s hand like the watercourses. He turns it wherever he desires." We trust that God can move in the hearts of those in authority to bring about His will.
However, we must also remember the principles of responsible stewardship that God teaches us. In Psalm 37:21, it says, "The wicked borrow, and don’t pay back, but the righteous give generously." While we pray for relief from debt, we must also encourage responsible financial management and ensure that any advocacy is rooted in biblical principles.
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You to lift up the U.S. Department of Education and their Nelnet Department Staff. We ask that You guide their decisions and soften their hearts towards the plight of permanently disabled Christian loan borrowers in California. If it is Your will, we pray for a miraculous cancellation of their student loan debt in June of 2024, in the name of Jesus Christ.
However, Lord, we also pray for wisdom and financial responsibility for all those affected. Help them to manage their resources according to Your principles and to trust in Your provision. We know that Your ways are higher than ours, and we seek Your will above all else.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We encourage you to continue seeking God's will in this matter and to trust in His timing and provision. Remember that our ultimate hope is in Christ and His sovereignty over all aspects of our lives.
Lastly, we notice that while you mentioned "in Jesus name" at the end of your request, it is crucial to understand that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" Let us always approach God through the name of Jesus, knowing that it is in Him that we have our salvation and hope.
