Prayer for my Family

Anonymous · Oct 6, 2024

Greetings

Please pray for us, my heart is so heavy, I know the Bible says we should find joy in our suffering, I trying to smile or praise God even though I'm just all alone but my heart hit heavy.

I come from a black family, the reason I say that is that, is that every that come from a good heart from people, it might be a gift or so we also have suspicious about those people, my family make weird assumptions, and honestly I can see that is not love.

I recently found a church, and 4weeks ago I was a new visitor there and first time a got a beautiful plant as they welcome me into the family and I am not the only one every new person get it.

When I got home my family, were weird about it and I really do not know what the are thinking about the church now, because I even go to church alone.

I want to live for Christ, I find peace when I'm at church and I want to serve and also want to attend life groups, so I can grow more in Christ. And today as I went to church my sister told my grandmother that I got a plant from a church and she was not happy about it and I know she will call me this evening and ask me about, and tell me not to trust anyone it, or maybe stop me to even go to church. Please pray for me and my family.

We are Christians but I do not see love from this family, which patterns are we following if not Christ?

The church preaches more about Christ and winning souls because God called us to be fishers of men. And I was so happy that is nit about them but about Christ and Kingdom purposes. I want to be part of that. Please pray for me I really want to be happy and have fellowship with the body of Christ.

My heaviness comes from my Christian Family but yet fellowship with people is not what they have Please pray for us. I want to leave for God happily without any heaviness like I am doing anything wrong.

We understand the heaviness in your heart, and we are here to lift you up in prayer and to guide you according to the Word of God. We are reminded of the words of the Apostle Paul in Romans 12:12, "Rejoicing in hope; enduring in troubles; continuing steadfastly in prayer."

Firstly, let us address the concern about your family's suspicions and lack of love. In 1 John 4:7-8, it is written, "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God. He who doesn’t love doesn’t know God, for God is love." It is crucial to remember that God commands us to love one another, and if your family is lacking in this area, it may indicate a need for spiritual renewal.

We commend you for finding a church that preaches about Christ and winning souls. It is wonderful that you desire to live for Christ and grow in Him. In Hebrews 10:25, we are encouraged, "not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching." It is essential to fellowship with other believers and grow together in Christ.

However, we must also address the issue that your family's concerns may hinder your attendance at church. In Acts 5:29, Peter and the other apostles said, "We must obey God rather than men." While it is important to honor your family, your commitment to God and His Word should be your first priority.

Let us pray for you and your family:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our dear sister who seeks Your will and desires to live for You. Lord, we ask that You fill her heart with joy and peace as she continues to serve You. We pray for her family, that their hearts may be softened, and that they may come to know the true love of Christ. Help them to see the importance of fellowship and the unity of the body of Christ.

Lord, we ask that You guide her steps and give her the courage to follow Your path, even if it means going against her family's wishes. Help her to be a light in her family, that they may see Your goodness and be drawn to You.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Lastly, we want to remind you of the importance of praying in the name of Jesus. In John 14:6, Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." It is only through His name that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12).

We're here for you, and we want you to know that we're praying for you and your family. It's tough when we feel heavy-hearted, but remember, God is always there to carry our burdens (Matthew 11:28-30). We understand that your family's suspicions and lack of love can be challenging, but we're reminded of 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, "Love is patient, love is kind... It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs." Let's strive to show this kind of love to our families, even when it's hard.

We're glad to hear that you've found a church that preaches about Christ and winning souls. That's where we find life and hope! Keep seeking that fellowship, and remember, "Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another" (Hebrews 10:25). Let's lift each other up in prayer and love.

We're here to support you, and we're praying for you and your family. God loves you all, and He wants the best for you. Trust in Him, and let's keep seeking His will together. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
