I am asking for prayers for finances, for those of you who dont know the situation, my wife had left and had gone to live on her own, God is restoring the marriage and she has moved back home, but the enemy is hitting us every way he possibly can, I have been in a terrible financial situation for a long time, just trying to get by, it started a few years ago, when I had moved my stepdaughter,step son and their spouses and seven grandchildren in with me, then I got laid off for over a year and a half, we survived from help from others and from having to take out a number of loans, I have been back t work, and we have moved almost everyone out, but we have had to renew these loans for years, just to keep up with them, they were garnishing my paycheck until a couple of weeks ago, due to an old hospital bill from 2005 they dug up, I just paid that off, got my check today and have been hit with ANOTHER garnishment, I had to borrow money to pay the rent because of this, now I have a huge utility bill due Monday and no way in the world to pay it, someone helped lat month,thank God, or we would not have made it, I'm trying to put my faith in God that he will move, I paid my tithe today,even though I hardly had anything left of my check, I just dont know what to do, my wife has a disability, and just came back home, and my stepdaughter has been having problems, and we have moved her back in with us, she has been clean for over a month, and I want her to stay that way, she's in a very fragile emotional state right now, my wife was gone for over a month, and I was a wreck because of that, and she had been in and out of hospitals a month before she left, it's basically been two months of hell, and this was on top of everything else that happened, all I'm asking is prayer, and prayer, and prayer, I dont know why this is happening, I don't make a lot of money I'm a machinist in an old machine shop in an airplane factory, I put in my 40 every week and try to survive, I dont make much more then minimum wage today, thats a way of life down south here, I just dont know what to do. the only person who can fix this mess is God, I'm exhausted and worn out emotionally and physically, and my faith has taken a beating, I want to thank those who have prayed for us during the separation and everything that happened, your prayers mean the world to me, right now I just feel like a complete failure, I'm supposed to take care of my wife and be able to fix all these things, and I just cant,

Praying for you and your family and for the Lord to do what he does best.
Luke 18:27And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
Thank you for a good report Lord!
 
You and your wife both continue in my prayers for all help and provision in Jesus.

God bless

May Yahvah God and Yahshua the Messiah send you strength and guidance to walk your journey my friend.

May comfort fall upon you in the name of Yahvah God and Yahshua the Messiah.

Peace and Blessings.
 
Last time I didn't have any money, which was about three months ago, I got the remaining cash I had (sacrificing my budget for the week) and gave it God. Before I gave it I said a prayer which went something like this "Lord, I am giving this money as a sign of my trust in you, I sow this seed because I have many needs which need to be met, and I need you to supply all my needs...." the very week I miraculously got more than enough money for my semester. Put your trust in God and He will never let you down. God bless
 
just pass the word on prayers , my paycheck wouldn't get her until Thursday and they will shut off the lights Monday I wouldnt have anything left anyway, dont know how god is going to fix this, but he is God, and I have to trust him, I'm doing the best I can, someone helped last month,thought we would be ok,now hit with another garnishment, I guess if they shut them off can go live with the neighbors for a few weeks
 
I just dont know what I'm going to do, I am trying to trust God but sometimes it gets difficult, this is all I need, my wife comes home and we will be sitting in the dark
 
been praying for days on this, the word I keep getting is ask, someone helped us last month, so not comfortable doing that, but God says thats the word so I will, I think we were ok until I got garnished yet again, I dont know why these things keep happening to me, God worked on my marriage and brought my wife back home and now this, If this is inappropriate I will delete it, if someone is able to do something I can tell you how to contact them directly, God bless the person who helped last month, I was in the depths of despair with my wife gone, and the wonderful people here prayed with me for weeks, I was at the edge of suicide and God brought me back from that point and restored my marriage, I need to trust him with this, I'm just doubting myself right now and in extreme pain from a wisdom tooth, plus a lot of other things going on
 
please at least pray for us, I dont know what we are going to do, I know I need to trust God on this, I have tried my best and I am out of options again, I just go to work every day and try to pay the bills and the enemy seems to be always able to steal my finances, we are trying to fix our relationship and I dont need weeks of no utilities, I feel like a failure to my wife and myself, even though I have tried my best, I know a lot of people arent real on here but I am,
 
please pray for us to get through this over the next couple of weeks, the enermey is going to throw everything he can at my wife and I, they will turn off everything Tuesday morning, we had prayer in the chat room last night over this, I put the audio chat on my big speakers, and after several people had prayed the entire house shook this s a very old house and at first I though something like a roof beam or a foundation beam broke, but everything is ok, then I looked up house shook during prayer, and it came up with ACTS 4:31

God must be trying to tell me something so please pray for us ok?


Acts 4:31

New International Version (NIV)

31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.
