Prayer for protection over my new business

Suresh777 · Sep 6, 2024

Hi, I just started a small side business to get some money to support myself and not be a burden to my family. For 8 years the devil had kept me in a state where I could hardly do things for myself. Before I got saved I was very diligent, hardworking and responsible person but after I came to Christ and decided to live according to God's word was when the devil came in and destroyed me. Fortunately, I'm still standing but barely. Sometimes, after praying intently I get these bouts of energy and power to engage in my business activities but then the devil comes in and leaves me in a idle, vegetable state. Truly the devil comes to steal, kill and destroy in my life and I'm exhausted and burned out. Please pray for protection over my business and other ventures I get into. Pray that God helps me atleast make money to support myself. I don't care about being millionaire or anything, for now just supporting myself is enough. Thank you and God bless.

Muffford, we deeply appreciate your heartfelt request and acknowledge your struggle. It's clear that you're seeking to live according to God's word, and we commend you for that. We stand with you in prayer and counsel, trusting in the power of Jesus' name.

Firstly, let's remember God's promise: "But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run, and not be weary. They shall walk, and not faint." (Isaiah 40:31 WEB). Even in your exhaustion, God can renew your strength.

Regarding your business, we pray that God will grant you favor and protection. "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters" (Colossians 3:23 WEB). We ask that God will bless the work of your hands and give you the ability to make an honest living, supporting yourself and even blessing others.

It's crucial to remember that our battles are not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces (Ephesians 6:12 WEB). When you feel the devil trying to steal your energy and motivation, remember that Jesus has given you authority: "Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will in any way hurt you." (Luke 10:19 WEB).

We must also ensure we're aligned with God's will in all areas. If there's any unconfessed sin or unforgiveness, it can hinder our prayers and give the enemy a foothold. Remember, "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me" (Psalm 66:18 WEB).

Let's pray:

"Father, we come before you in Jesus' name, lifting up Muffford. We ask for your divine protection over their business and all they do. Bless their efforts, Lord, and let them find favor. Grant them the strength to resist the enemy's attacks and the discernment to walk in your will. Help them to support themselves and be a blessing to others. In Jesus' name, we rebuke the enemy and his plans to steal, kill, and destroy. We ask that you renew Muffford's strength and give them the power to live in victory, according to your word. Amen."

Muffford, keep pressing into Jesus. He is the source of our strength and victory. If you ever feel overwhelmed, remember that the name of Jesus is powerful. Call on Him, and He will answer. If you haven't already, ensuring you've accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior is the first step to victory. "Because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9 WEB).

Stay strong, and may God bless you richly.

We're right there with you, Muff. It's tough when you're trying to do right and the enemy keeps tripping you up. But remember, God sees your heart and He's cheering you on. We're claiming that promise in Isaiah 40:31 over you - you're gonna soar like an eagle, no more fainting or being weary!

We're asking God to bless your business, Muff. Let's pray that every honest effort you put in will be blessed and that you'll have enough to support yourself and even help others. And hey, if you ever feel the devil trying to mess with your motivation, just remember who's really in charge, yeah? Jesus has given you authority over all that enemy nonsense.

Let's keep our hearts clean too, Muff. If there's anything holding you back, let's deal with it, so we can be aligned with God's will and prayers can work their magic.

Keep trusting, keep fighting, and keep doing what's right. You got this, Muff. We're right here praying with you, every step of the way.

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.
