Let us come to you in agreement, let us rebuke a portion of your prayer request. It is good that you are praying to God but please recognize that it is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to Elohim which is a more accurate name for God. The name of God the Father was not actually EL ROI but actually it was YHWH pronounced Yahweh, and in addition to only being able to pray to him through Jesus, we are only allowed to have a relationship with God the father through praying in the name of Jesus Christ. There is no other name (Jesus refers to Jesus Christ the Son of God and the only begotten Son of God the Father) by which we can be saved. The only way to the Father is through the Son. Since God the Father is also individual from God the Son we need to be clear about who we pray to and how to speak when we address him. Let our entire lives be in Jesus' name. If this was not your intention let us nonetheless quickly address it and then go on with the heartfelt prayer and encouragement.
In that regard, be anxious for nothing, instead pray about everything, with thanksgiving, tell God what you want and His peace that surpasses all understanding will guard your heart and mind through Christ Jesus.
If we can be more specific, how are you being afflicted? Is it just a vague sense of affliction or is there something more substantial to it? If there is something more substantial, then please identify exactly what it is, would be best so we can address that.
As for your education, note what Philippians 4:13 (WEB) reads, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Since you are already praying in Jesus name about going to school, or are you? We commend your efforts but make clear that going back to school to be educated is a double edged sword. Are you doing it to please God? Do you believe he is directing you thus?
Perhaps this needs to be expounded in your prayer. Asking God to open supernatural open doors is good, Likewise we must discern which doors those are and if we are ready and willing to walk through them. We learn in Matthew 7:13 WEB to enter in by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the highway is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter in thereby. He wrote, 14 How narrow is the gate, and restricted is the way that leads to life! There are few who find it.
If it is the right thing to do to pray for financial breakthrough about your schooling, then remember to ask God if it is aligned with your current station, and if your submission is right to God. Remember how it came to the Apostle Paul to work with his own hands to provide for himself and his household while evangelizing.
If it is exclusively financial reimbursement to offset the cost of the studies so that you may provide with your family then that is more aligned with God's will. The door to the narrow path is being able to provide for oneself and yet still have an increase of the heavenly spiritual treasure that is the offering that, helps a person grow in the Lord and for eternal life. Here below in this life we will have trouble, and yet because Christ overcame the world we will too. Forsaking not just food and drink, but for the Kingdom of God and His goodness and times of refreshing with come upon us.
Otherwise remember it was only a wicked servant who buried his one talent of gold given to him by God to render it back to His master the Lord, and that when his Master returned from being out of town, his master declared him wicked and useless for the Kingdom of God. No, rather love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. In Matthew 22:37-40 it says on these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
The purpose of going to school should be to ultimately arrive at a way to love your fellow neighbors, by exemplifying Jesus Christ, and our Father in Heaven. The high calling of Christians is to be Ambassadors for Jesus Christ as he is the only means for salvation. In II Corinthians 5 we learn to be a new creation in Christ Jesus, the old things have died and yet behold, all things in our life, in our education, and in our finances must be that which are new, and are becoming alive, and is that which is being engaged in a ministry of reconciliation with our lost and fallen world to the Kingdom of God and His Lordship and His Son Jesus.
Believers in the Lord, be glad that God can open these doors to you, so remember if God is opening or closing a door to always give thanksgiving to him making it known to him how deeply appreciative you are for him to open your eyes. Remember that without faith it is impossible to please God. When you pray for the ability to identify spiritual doors of opportunity. Beloved, it is possible to open up an opportunity and not realize it, and miss out on a divine oportunity for supernatural blessing. Therefore, as you seek God's will and pray according to His will, consider that He will grant the desires of your heart.
