I urgently need prayers for protection, relief, & freedom from a harmful & overwhelming living situation. I'm experiencing ongoing harassment, financial pressure, emotional distress, & physical symptoms from the constant stress. I'm exhausted & frightened and I feel like I’m losing hope. Please pray for permanent separation from the source of this suffering and for God to remove all toxic & harmful influences from my life as soon as possible. I'm asking for prayers for safety, peace, privacy, & immediate relocation to a secure, stable home where I can finally begin healing. Please pray that God opens the right doors quickly so I can leave safely & securely. I also ask for prayers for steady employment, financial stability, & the support I need to rebuild my life. After a long period of isolation, I pray to be reunited with my family immediately and to receive their love, help, & support. Please pray for strength, clarity, protection, & for God to show me the light at the end of this tunnel. I'm scared, overwhelmed, & struggling physically from the stress. I need God’s intervention, comfort, & guidance right now

Please I need many prayers. I have back molar pain, and i need to go to the dentist. I do not have dental insurance. If it is a tooth abscess, they will have to do a root canal. I cant afford it, so they will have to pull my tooth. I pray it’s nothing serious. I pray they do not do any work, that doesn’t need to be done. Please watch over me Lord. I no longer have my fiancé. I am freaking out with this situation, I cannot handle it. I am very upset. Please pray it’s not an abscess. I take very good care of my teeth. I don't even know how this happened? I hope it’s just because of my TMJ, and nothing more serious. Amen
