I am newly married. My husband moved into my parents house with me when my father passed away a few years ago. We have gone through foreclosure and the Lord has blessed us with his mercy and stopped all proceedings and restored us to a better payment. My brother in law moved in with us in September 2011, I had an altercation with my mom (who was born and raised Christian) over it, although I pointed out if we have the means to help we are OBLIGATED by our Father God to do so, My brother in law says he is saved, unfortunately I feel its not what he thinks it is. Between sex, drugs, alcohol and violent stories from his past, he is inconsiderate to my mother and me in our home. I hear the most horrific stories that I know God will use for good once he is saved (I have prayed and feel the spirit fill me with that purpose for him) although currently it is glorifying the sins and its making me mad, I wake up mad, Im mad all day, I use so much energy fighting with my flesh to stop to be happy to lay it at Gods feet, and I feel alright until he does something else 15-20 min later. Its all day everyday. We are not in the best financial position, and our home needs plenty of repairs, I have a promise I have struggled to hold on to that my husband and I will own our own land, we will have our own home, and we will prosper in our business through the Lord God Almighty. But instead my brother in law acts as our enemy, calls me his sister to my face and tells my Christian friends how he is taking care of everyone in our house and he is paying our bills and my husband and myself is being foolish and... well it just gets worse. But its not true, we give up everything we have to help our family and I want to help our family is brings me joy to honor God and Serve my family and to sacrifice for them, but we are overdraft on both business and personal checking accounts thank God its only a few times a month, before it was every week. The obstacles grow bigger and bigger with each passing day and God wont respond to me with a solution I keep praying and I feel that Im wrong because he isnt talking to me. What do I do? please help me, I dont want to turn away my husbands brother, he is spiteful and has told me before he wouldnt talk to us if things go bad, that he could hurt my husband (his brother) and he would win. I do however have a hard time believing God would allow an unholy heart and Purpose to hurt my husband who loves, fears, and obeys Gods words. this is too much and the devil keeps casting down strongholds to bind this family, how can i get them to stop accepting the devils powerless ways?
