emergency prayers needed today

I am a father of three children, and married. I am on ssi, and lost my vehicle. I am having problems paying my bills. My check isn't big enough to pay everything. My wife is pregnant so she can't work either. We just moved into a house that we are renting. I am renting to own a refrigerator weekly because we didn't have one. We are in desperate need of a financial miracle, spiritual miracle, and a vehicle. I feel like I cannot take anymore. I was diagnosed with ptsd, severe adhd, and bi polar. I am at my wits end. Something to help us needs to take place. I have been praying but feel like God isn't answering me. We are not living in sin or anything. My family, and wifes family don't want to have anything to do with us so we can't get their help. I'm not sure about our church family, but please pray for us. We need to see something happen to help us quickly. The bill for the fridge is due every saturday, and I ran out of money. I need prayer warriors to take this to God and get answers for us. Please.

Re: emergency prayers needed today

I don't mind praying at all, and will, but just wondering why your wife can't work even though she is pregnant? I know many women who work during pregnancy, and get along just fine...

And why can't you work? Sometimes we have to take the first step in the right direction, and then He steps in and helps with the rest.

My mother taught me this saying "The Lord helps those who are willing to take the first step and help themselves."

In any case, I will be praying for you.

Praying for you and your family.
I think you ought to let your
church know of your difficulty
right now too. Maybe the church
could hire you to do some odd
jobs there?

Re: emergency prayers needed today

Why do both of your parents refuse to have anything to do with you?

My mother has passed away. My dad don't have anything to do with us, because we are in church, and my wifes family don't like pentecostals.

Go to your local Catholic Charities,
they will fix you up. They don't care
what denomination you are, you could
tell them "wiccan."

As KeptByTheWord said I will also be praying for you. Please don't take questions about your situation as us not caring. Just trying to get a fuller picture and as KBTW said many times the first step is helping one's self.

If you are in such dire straights may I ask why your wife is pregnant with another child? If I did not have enough income to have the most basic necessities like a roof over my head, refrigerater, etc I can't imagine bringing another child into that situation intentionally.

I went through a period of time of great financial struggle so I do know what that is like and I pray things get better for you.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
