Roshan, we stand with you in prayer, seeking God's will for your life. We commend you for coming before the Lord in the mighty name of Jesus, as it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. As it is written, For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB
Firstly, we praise God for your humility and repentant heart. You have taken the right step by confessing your sins and seeking forgiveness. As it is written, If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 WEB. God is merciful and quick to forgive. So we can confidently say, The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness. Psalm 103:8 WEB.
Regarding your drinking habit, we must admonish you to abstain from it. We should not partake of this world with the goal to be under the influence. The Bible tells us, Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 1 Peter 5:8 WEB. If you have a struggle that you cannot overcome, then each of you must flee sexual immorality, including other sins. Now the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God. Galatians 5:19-21 WEB. Alcohol is not the solution to life's problems, and it can cloud our judgment and hinder our relationship with God. Therefore do not be drunken, for excess wine is riotous, but be filled with the Spirit. Ephesians 5:18 WEB. Instead of relying on alcohol, rely on the Holy Spirit to fill you and guide you.
We pray that God will help you overcome this struggle and give you the strength to resist temptation. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6:11 WEB. We pray for your complete deliverance from this habit, not just control to partake occasionally.
Concerning your work situation, we pray that God will restore your reputation and help you regain the trust of your colleagues and superiors. We pray that He will open doors for you to work from home again and grant you favor in the eyes of those who make decisions about your work privileges. But trust in the Lord with all your heart, And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, And he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB.
Regarding your financial needs, we pray that God will provide for you according to His riches in glory. We ask Him to help you manage your debts and meet your needs. But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33 WEB. Remember, that God is the provider of all things. And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19 WEB.
We also stand with you in prayer for your mother's healing and strength. We ask God to surround her with His presence and bless her abundantly. Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. James 5:14-15 WEB.
Regarding your desire to settle in life, get married, and provide for your mother, we pray that God will guide you and help you make wise decisions. We pray that He will bring a godly spouse into your life and bless your marriage. Delight yourself also in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4 WEB .
Lastly, we encourage you to keep praying and trusting in God's plan and timing. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 WEB.
