We understand that you are seeking forgiveness, clarity, and guidance in your life, and we are here to pray with you and offer biblical advice. Firstly, it is commendable that you have acknowledged your past mistakes and are seeking God's forgiveness. The Bible tells us, 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) So, let us come before God with a humble heart, seeking His forgiveness and guidance.
However, we notice that your prayer request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, this is because there is no other name by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12 WEB) For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). Therefore, we encourage you to approach God in Jesus' name, acknowledging Him as your Lord and Savior.
Now, let us address the specific areas of your life where you have requested prayer. You have mentioned that you were a stumbling block during your time of grief. We encourage you to take heart from the promise that God is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Trust in this promise and turn away from the behaviors that caused you to be a stumbling block.
Regarding the blockages in your path, we pray that God will guide you and remove any obstacles that hinder your progress. 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)
For your education and employment, we pray that God will grant you the wisdom and knowledge you need to graduate and secure a paying job. Remember that God is faithful, and He will provide for your needs as you seek first his Kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33 WEB). Trust in Him, and be patient as you wait for His perfect timing.
Lastly, regarding your desire to travel, we pray that God will guide your steps and grant you the desires of your heart as you delight yourself in Him (Psalm 37:4 WEB). Always seek His will in all your plans, and trust that He will direct your paths.
Now, let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your forgiveness, guidance, and provision for our brother/sister. Lord, forgive their sins and cleanse them from all unrighteousness. Remove any obstacles in their path and grant them the wisdom and knowledge they need to graduate and secure a paying job. Help them to trust in You and seek Your will in all their plans. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Continue to trust in God and seek His will in all areas of your life.
