A Prayer for Someone Losing their Home

posted by Mark Herringshaw

I have a friend who may be losing his home. Most of us know someone suffering under this crisis. The statistics are daunting. 2 million people are either in default or in immediate risk facing foreclosure. Numbers are one thing; faces and names and real human stories are another. I’m grieving for my friend. I can’t help him myself in any kind of financial way, but I can, and I will pray. Join me today in a prayer for all those under the shadow of the current mortgage crisis.

“Father God, you are our provider. You promise protection and provision for us, so we come to you today asking for immediate and practical help for all those at risk of losing their homes. Some of these financial problems were not caused by any individual; some perhaps were the results of unwise decisions. Either way, at this point Lord, we need and ask for your intervention and help. We ask for practical relief and a specific solution to the problem. Bring the right people together to solve this housing crisis in a creative and timely way. Provide a way to pay this debt, or remove or realign or restructure the debt. Whatever will prove the best and right course, do it, Lord! Father, bring hope and faith and a relief from fear and a sense of despair. You promise in the Bible to “make a way where there is no way.” This is time for that kind of miracle! Cut a new path through this impossible jungle. Save, and then bless this home! Your name is “Provider.” You love to prove yourself in this way. We humbly acknowledge that without your help, we’re helpless. But with you we pray, ‘I can’t; you can; please do; thank you!” In Jesus’ name we pray.”

I ran across your prayer today and I feel that it was meant to be. Like so many others I am within a couple of months of loosing my home of 12years. I am a husband and father of three boys.

I have served my country in the military and my community as a police officer. But at no time have I felt more scared and alone as I do right now. I feel like a failure to myself and my family because of what is happening. There have been some troubling in my marriage this past year, some I am sure because of money and some because of some things my wife has been going through. Because of this my wife has listened to the wrong people and has made some bad decisions but I have loved and prayed for her each and every day.

Things are better now but our financial situation has really suffered during this time as I have tried to keep everything together on my own. Now we are looking to be forced to leave our home as early as January or February. I am trying to not let this ruin Christmas for my family but it gets hard when i know i can’t put presents under the tree for my kids and wife, i dont care about me i have always had more fun giving than receiving.

Well enough all i ask is for everyone to keep me and mu family in your prayers and i will do the same for all of you as i say this prayer every day from now on.

Thank all of you for reading this and keeping me in your prayers.

Merry Christmas and may all your prayers be answered.

James.

i am one of those people who are losing their homes. i can’t sleep. mine was I was laid off my job. but, I do blame the banks and President OBama. Didn’t he say noone was to lose their homes. He gave the ones that were one month behind breaks, and what about us? I am so disappointed in him and guess what ? I voted for him. To all those who give money to the animal shelters help us keep our homes for our children. You know what happens to your charitable dollars. They go to all the CEOS pockets. God help us all.

WHY SHOULD PEOPLE LOSE THEIR HOMES ? JUST BECAUSE THE BANKERS HAVE BECOME SO GREEDY. IT REMINDS ME OF THE BIBLICAL TIMES WITH THE TAX COLLECTORS. BUT WE ALL KNOW ALL THIS IS COMING TO AN END. WE MUST ALL BE PREPARED FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD. SO BANKERS AND EVERYONE INVOLVED WITH THE PERSECUTION OF THE POOR BEWARE. GOD IS PREPARING HIS WRATH . BUT THE ONES WHO HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT BE HAPPY FOR HE IS COMING VERY SOON.

THEY REMOVED THEIR MISSLES. I KNOW THAT WAS OUR GOD FOR HE IS EVERYWHERE. GOD BLESS US ALL.
