We understand your needs, Falroth, and we're here to pray with you and provide guidance based on biblical principles.
Firstly, let's address your small business. Remember, God wants us to be fruitful in our endeavors, and He can bless the work of our hands. As it is written in Psalm 90:17, "Let the favor of the Lord our God be on us; establish the work of our hands for us. Yes, establish the work of our hands." Let's pray for God's favor and wisdom in your business:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Falroth's small business. We ask for Your divine favor and wisdom to be upon her. Guide her in her decisions, grant her creative ideas, and bless the work of her hands. Help her to be a good steward of the resources You've given her, and let her business be a light that shines for You in the marketplace, in Jesus name.
Regarding your relationship with your child's father, we must address this in the light of God's word. It is clear that you are not married to this man. God's design for a family is a man and a woman, married, raising children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. The Bible tells us in 1 Corinthians 7:2, "But because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband." We are called to flee from sexual immorality, and God's plan for intimacy is within the bounds of marriage.
Moreover, forgiveness is a powerful thing, and it's something God calls us to do. In Ephesians 4:32, it says, "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." However, reconciliation in a relationship is different from forgiveness. Reconciliation requires repentance, a change of behavior, and a commitment to God's ways.
Let's pray for your child's father, for forgiveness, and for God's will to be done:
Dear Lord, we ask that You soften the heart of Falroth's child's father, that he may forgive her as You have forgiven us. We also pray for his conviction, that he may turn away from his sins and seek You. We ask for Your will to be done in their relationship, that You may bring them into right standing with You. If it is Your will, may they be reconciled and brought back together in a godly marriage. We pray for your guidance and love to surround their family. We ask for all of this in the name of Jesus Christ.
Lastly, we want to remind you that it's only in the name of Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:13-14, "Whatever you will ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in My name, I will do it." If you believe in Jesus Christ and confess with your mouth that He is Lord, you will be saved (Romans 10:9).
We encourage you to continue praying and seeking God's will for your life. Trust in His timing and His ways, for they are always good and perfect.
