We became husband and wife 16 years ago and blessed with four beautiful daughters, the youngest is 9 years old and the eldest is 15 years old . Earlier in our married life, my husband was earning a decent income from a manufacturing firm while I was just a housewife. When our third daughter was born, we had enough saving for down payment to buy a home, a two bedrooms, single storey terrace house. We lived a simple but happy and loving family.

Everything changed when the firm that employed my husband closed down four years ago. My husband was able to find another job with much lower pay but the earning was just not enough to cover the basic expenses. He persistently looked for other higher paying job while keep comforting us and saying that there were people who were even less fortunate than us. After several months, without any success to find a better job, things got worst and we had to sell our house to avoid repossession. That was one of our worst ever experiences.

With the extra cash from the sale of the house we were able to move to the state capital and start a new life. My husband managed to get a decent job and able to rent an apartment for the family. We arranged a school bus to send and pick up our daughters from school. I managed to get a job myself too. With our combined income, we bought a new car, and were saving some as we planned to buy a house of our own, and for the future education expenses of our daughters.

Just as life seemed to be getting better, our lives took a turn for the worst when my husband got laid off (again!) several months ago. My own job cannot pay enough to meet other bills, the apartment rent, car loan, school bus and other living expenses. My husband has been looking for a job, sending resume by mails, visiting companies around the area, but so far no luck yet. The bank has been chasing us for the car loan payment, the landlord has been asking for the rent.. . We may not be able to keep the car, we may need to vacate this apartment.. we keep trying, we keep praying. My 9 years old daughter already understand our situation and even asked me if God listen to our prayer.. I am so worried for my husband who used to be cheerful. Now he is quiet, thinking a lot and occasionally talking to himself, he is getting depressed. The children have stopped whining about not having enough.

We may not be able to keep the car, we may not be able to keep the family from being homeless. The monthly repayment of the car loan and the rent are already 3 months behind. We have other outstanding credit card debts which is 2 months overdue. We have to forget about buying a house for now. I appreciate anyone out there that help us turn this challenging moment of our life into a defining moment through your prayer. Where ever you are.. whoever you are.. your prayer means so much for the family.. May God bless you.
 
I just prayed for you. Stay strong and please dont stop praying. God is so good, He is a great provider and will provide for you and your family. God bless your family and may God hear your prayers.
 
Prayed for your, God will take care of all your needs.Β 

Lord Jesus be with this family, they need you Lord Jesus, open the doors of opportunity for her husband, so that he gets a good job in Jesus name we pray Amen
 
[SIZE=12pt]Dear God, my struggles with money are bringing me down. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=12pt]I am in dire need for myself and my family.
I know that You have all answers, and You always hear me.
Please shine your infinite light into my life,
Bless me with abundance so that my family may thrive.
I thank You for all You have done for me to date
And I pray You will always remind me when I forget
That my spirit and soul always dwell in Your good graces.
Thank You oh Lord, for blessing me with material comfort
So that I am reminded of the bountiful fruits of Your deeds.

Lord hear our prayers for Susan, the husband to find a job as soonest as possible, safety of their lovely daughters not to involved into any mal-practise in this difficult period of crises. 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.
