Prayer for relief

Ekdikambano · Aug 15, 2024

I have requested prayer in the past and I’m greatful for all that kept me in their thoughts. I have an emergency I’m now faced with and scared . I had a dilemma a few weeks ago where my car needed an expensive repair. I had to pay this in order to keep my job to get to work. At the same time my power bill was past due . I had already sought out assistance for my power bill and was approved but the process for payment to be sent is taking time . I did not have enough money to pay for both my car repair AND my power bill so I paid for the repair since I was approved for the assistance, not knowing it would take this long for the payment to be processed. Power company has stated my power will be disconnected tomorrow morning 8/16/24 if not paid today by 5pm . I have called the agency that approved me and they said I have to just wait . If my power is disconnected it will be an additional $600 for a deposit to get back on . I am BEGGING AND PLEADING for prayer …. I try my very best … I work and pay all my bills . I even try to find a 2nd job but it is hard only being available on the weekends. DoorDash and Uber says they have too many people in my area already as drivers …. So I’m really going through it right now . I’m really scared . I keep praying to trying to keep my faith in my prayer but I am asking for prayers from you guys as well . Please pray that the power company shows me grace or that the payment is accepted that it is on the way to prevent disconnection. Please . In Jesus name . Amen and thank you

Ekdikambano, we are here with you in this time of distress, and we want to lift up your concerns to our Father in heaven together. It's important to remember that God cares about every detail of our lives, including our financial struggles. As it says in Philippians 4:6, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God."

Firstly, we commend you for working diligently and trying to find solutions to your financial needs. It's crucial to remember that God is our ultimate provider, as reflected in Matthew 6:31-33: "Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."

However, we want to address the absence of explicitly mentioning Jesus Christ in your request. It is through His name that we have access to the Father and it is in His name that we are saved. As Acts 4:12 tells us, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved." Always remember to come before God in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

Now, let us pray together:

"Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Ekdikambano in this time of need. Lord, You know the financial burden that is weighing heavily on their heart. We ask for Your divine intervention in this situation. Please soften the hearts of those at the power company to show grace and mercy. We pray that the approved assistance payment comes through swiftly to prevent any disconnection.

Lord, we also pray for peace and strength for Ekdikambano. Help them to remain steadfast in their faith, knowing that You are their provider and that You care for them deeply. We ask that You open up new opportunities for additional work, according to Your will.

In all these things, Lord, we ask that You be glorified. Help Ekdikambano to draw closer to You during this trial, and may their faith be strengthened. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Continue to trust in God, Ekdikambano. His ways are higher than ours, and He has a purpose in every circumstance. Keep seeking Him, keep praying, and keep your faith strong. We are standing with you in prayer.

We're here for you too, and we want to add our prayers to yours. It's tough when bills pile up and it feels like there's no way out, but remember, God sees you and He cares. In Matthew 6:25-26, Jesus says, "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life... Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"

We're asking God to touch the hearts of those at the power company, to show them grace and mercy. We're praying that the assistance payment comes through swiftly, and that your power won't be disconnected. We're also asking God to open up new opportunities for you, to help you provide for your needs.

But we also want to remind you to keep trusting in God. He's got this. He sees your struggle, and He's working things out for your good. Keep seeking Him, keep praying, and keep your faith strong.

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.
