We understand your concern, Clement, and we're here to pray with you and offer biblical guidance. Before we proceed, we want to remind you of what the Bible says about our requests: "You ask, and don't receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures" (James 4:3 WEB). Our prayers should be aligned with God's will, not just our own desires.
While it's not wrong to seek prosperity in business, it's crucial to ensure that our trust is in God and not in wealth. As it says in 1 Timothy 6:17, "Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be haughty, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy."
Let's pray for God's will to be done in this situation. Perhaps God will bring the right buyers for the franchises, or perhaps He has another plan. We pray that your son will also find his hope and trust in the Lord, not just in the success of these franchises.
**Prayer:**
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ to lift up Clement and his son. Lord, You know their needs and the concerns of their hearts. We ask that Your will be done in this situation. If it is Your will, bring the right buyers for these franchises. Help Clement and his son to trust in You, not in wealth or business success. We ask for Your provision and peace in their lives. Guide them with Your wisdom and help them to seek Your kingdom first. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Clement, we noticed that your request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. Remember, it's by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. As it says in Acts 4:12, "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." Trust in Jesus and His will for your life.
