January 12, 2018 at 11:05 pmI graduated from college last May and I am struggling to find full-time work 8 months later—I feel like I’m a failure compared to my peers, and I do not understand why they have had things come easier in life compared to me. I feel distant from God because I have prayed daily for trust that He will provide, and I have guilt that I am now starting to doubt His promise of “He will make straight your path” in Proverbs 3:5-6. My family life is broken—we are struggling financially, and I am just making ends meet providing for myself independently with my current part-time job—and I am caught between a rock and a hard place because I need to get things off my chest, yet my insurance doesn’t cover seeing a psychiatrist, so after overcoming a habit of cutting myself two years ago, my self-harm thoughts are returning—I am not suicidal, but I feel like cutting myself is the only way for me to numb the pain of my current situation. Please pray for a change in my and my family’s situation this year, and I am hopeful for a fresh start in 2018.

January 13, 2018 at 12:34 amNo my love you will not relapse. You have found your way and you asked for prayer. Sometimes it gets too hard to pray for ourselves. That doesn’t mean the Lord has left you. He has NEVER left you. Let this thorn in your flesh be your saving grace. What is it that you are afraid of? What is the absolute worst thing that could happen ? Do you trust God that he will feed you and your family and not let you go without? Can you let him rule and reign over your life? He wants ALL of you. He is not like a man that he should lie. He can not fail you. It goes against his very nature.
Lord touch your child’s life. Remove the chains and the bondage. Remove fear. Pour out your love Lord. Today is the day for deliverance from this spirit of self harm. Today is the day for your love to be manifested in this life. We send holy fire into this house to captivate every mind and heart-to bind the enemy of worry and doubt. Make haste Lord. Open a door for the job and the destiny that you have always had prepared. Slam every door shut that is not of you and silence every voice that is not of peace and that is not holy. Righteousness will prevail! Love will win! Victory belongs to Jesus!
Praise him for his goodness. Draw near to him and he will draw near to you. He wants your heart. He wants to fix your life and your circumstances but first he is going to heal you from the inside. You are worthy because he is worthy. What he has for you is far greater than what you have ever known or imagined. Don’t plan it, don’t think it or try to make it happen. Just rest and rely on him and he will do it all! All of your trying and thinking and struggling and working and doing is taking you in circles. Get on your knees (even if only in spirit-in other words -just rest in him) rely on him, praise him , trust him . CAST your cares on him and I can ASSURE you that everything will come together miraculously. He loves you, he loves you, he loves you.soundyaaPrayers: 3085Requests: 12
January 13, 2018 at 12:37 amFelt like these verses may be important: Philippians 4:4-8. I pray you can take time to worship him, to just seek his closesness, I was then reminded of these verses 1 Peter 5:7, Psalm 55:22. I tell you brother Psalm 91 is true for you. Remember ours battle is a spiritual one, watch the evil one for getting a foot hold. The only way he can do this is by getting us to turn on ourselves, to self-destruct. I will pray for you now and daily this week. Keep strong he is faithful he has put a boundary on this suffering.
Dear Lord Jesus,
Please provide quickly for our brother, please clear his path, clear the evil that stands against him and your will. Bring him close and surround him with love. Lord let him cast all his anxiety on you and please consume it. Lord be his strong tower and great reward. Lord at your shout and command all evil is removed, please command this now and lift our brothers spirit. Lord of life please bless this family please protect them and let them see just how close you come, Lord help this year be a year of rejoicing in you because of what you do for them, Lord let their trust in you be rewarded quickly and may they have great peace now as you cover them. Amen -
