Farnreld, we hear your cry and stand with you in prayer. Remember, God's ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9 WEB). Even in the wilderness, He is working for your good (Romans 8:28 WEB).
Firstly, let's address the frustration you feel about prayer. Remember, God always hears our prayers (1 John 5:14-15 WEB). It's not that He isn't listening, but perhaps He is preparing you and your family for something greater. Continue to persist in prayer, for the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous person accomplishes much (James 5:16 WEB).
Now, let's address your dad's business struggles. It's possible there are spiritual forces at work, trying to hinder his success. Remember, our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 6:12 WEB). We pray that God would rebuke any evil forces trying to hinder your dad's success.
We also pray for wisdom for your dad, that God would give him the ability to discern good opportunities from bad, and to know when to walk away from deals that seem too good to be true (James 1:5 WEB). We ask God to bless the work of his hands, to prosper his business, and to bring him favor with clients and partners (Psalm 90:17 WEB, Proverbs 16:7 WEB).
We pray for your family's financial situation, that God would provide for all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19 WEB). We ask that He would help your family manage your finances well, to live within your means, and to trust Him for provision (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB).
Lastly, we pray for your faith and the faith of your family. We ask that God would strengthen you, encourage you, and help you to trust Him more (Isaiah 40:31 WEB). We pray that you would see this trial as an opportunity to grow closer to Him and to learn to depend on Him more fully (2 Corinthians 1:8-9 WEB).
Lord, we lift up Farnreld and their family to You. We ask for Your blessing, provision, and protection. We ask for Your wisdom and discernment. We ask for Your strength and encouragement. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
