you can pray God control this situation and separate me from all these problems and provide me a safe place to live free from unnecessary tension in life.

Thank you!

Let's not discuss
This may sound harsh but also necessary ... This is a discussion forum! I'm not going to pray to God about something I don't know anything about dear one.

Having said that, I am troubled by your OP. You had a vague argument with your mom and you want someone else to take responsibility to "separate from all these problems and provide a safe place to live free from unnecessary tension." Perhaps this is necessary tension due to problems you hide. Don't you know being a Christian is not a guarantee of safety but going among wolves as sheep?

You cannot have an argument by yourself, without your participation. No one invoked Scripture in this thread, so I will. Being a Christian also means taking responsibility ... to seek, knock, ask. So, I asked. Romans 12:18 If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.
  1. What are you doing to resolve all these problems?
  2. What are you doing to live in a safe place?
  3. What are you doing to live free from unnecessary tension?
One of my favorite Bible verses is Jeremiah 29:13 (ESV) You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. It means God begins where we end. I sense you are far from your end, meaning you are not close to finding God. Yet, you want his blessings and our prayers. I will pray for you but not for your ask; I will ask the Spirit to come to you to help you find the strength to face the truth and do what you can to make your world better. (It is only in this context that people say, "all we can do now is pray." They've already taken responsibility to do all they can do.) Hope this helps!


Proverbs 6:6-11 (VOICE)

A Lesson from the Ant

6 Take a lesson from the ant, you who love leisure and ease.
Observe how it works, and dare to be just as wise.
7 It has no boss,
no one laying down the law or telling it what to do,
8 Yet it gathers its food through summer
and takes what it needs from the harvest.
9 How long do you plan to lounge your life away, you lazy fool?
Will you ever get out of bed?
10 You say, “A little sleep, a little rest,
a few more minutes, a nice little nap.”
11 But soon poverty will be on top of you like a robber;
need will assault you like a well-armed warrior.

I would like to share that I am not saying my mother unnecessary tensions this is wrong understanding she is my mom. I mean to say any unnecessary tension( evil) let God remove or stop I hope this makes sense.

Here intercessors are praying spiritually without knowing much. I would prefer not to share more.

You yourself are deriving and making conclusion. I would share not to jump to any conclusion from the prayer request.

@My Dreams I see from your other request you aren't feeling well. I hope you apologized to your mother for arguing with her. That could be the reason you are not well.
I have stress, because of my situation. No , my mother is not the reason

Revealed, your position is - even though you tried to hide it. I will keep praying for you to face the truth.
I prefer not to share or talk on this.
I appreciate your prayers but giving false impression, or guessing things is not good

I know you prefer not to explain, which is revealing in and of itself.

And there is no false impression or guessing. Arguments are not a one-sided affairs. Fact. And it is obvious from the OP that you refuse to take any responsibility for the situation. Implied is victimhood mentality. What little you said is still revealing.

It's wrong you say " implied is victimhood mentality"
Instead of jumping to any conclusion you should know details

I agree and I wouldn’t dream of asking you any questions, God knows your situation ,Brother, he is in control of it, I too have a problem with a family member, I wouldn’t dream of discussing why, somethings can’t be shared ,only between the family members and God...all the best my friend and sometimes it’s the family member who needs to apologise to us..

God Bless you, hope you feel better soon.will continue praying for you and your mum...in Jesus Name..Amen!

No. It's not wrong but spot on. "you can pray God control this situation and separate me from all these problems." You have control and can separate yourself from these problem. It's just that with your victim mentality, you fail to act with the full armor of God.

Yes, I do know your general situation. Not the details but the fear to share the truth. Fear is not the Spirit of God!

We both know IF you shared the details of your situation, your sin would out in the open in your argument with your mother. Where does Scripture say to argue with your parents? God helps those who help themselves.
Matthew 6:33
VOICE. Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then all these things will be given to you too.
CEV. But more than anything else, put God's work first and do what he wants. Then the other things will be yours as well.

If you know the truth, you can share or else no point talking.
I don't agree with what you are saying and your conclusions

I have shared the general truth. It is you who has refused to share the details of the argument. That tells the story.

By way of contrast, I shared about 6 months ago a falling out I had with my congregation. I asked if I should continue going. The poll was unanimous that I should not. Would you like to read this story by comparison?
