The No-relief Dad

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1

God, I pray You will help the No Relief Dad. This is the Dad that did not know the significance of not planting his seed, and has produced many children from a lot of different women. If he is paying child support, I pray the judge will be fair to him and not take all his money for child support. I pray that his household will not be in lack due to him paying child support. Lord, allow him to receive wisdom and knowledge from You regarding his finances. Give him strength and encourage him to continue to pay child support. Lord, give this dad relief from anxiety, anger and or stress.

Don’t let the No Relief Dad resent the children due to having to pay child support. Allow the dad to realize that there’s relief at the end of the tunnel. Allow him to know that children do grow up extremely fast. I pray that this dad will be able to get promotions, raises, and on the job training that will allow him to make more money. Don’t allow him to give up, or give in to feeling sorry for himself. Encourage him to do the right thing at all times.

Lord, I pray according to Proverbs 13:12 that You will give him a sudden good break to turn his life around. Don’t allow unrelenting disappointment to continue to come his way. Don’t let him feel bad that because he does not have extra money, that he does not deserve to see his children. Allow the Dad to go to the park and throw balls, play catch, watch Little League games of his children that are being played. Lord, let the no Relief Dad know that time is best spent when he can spend it with his family. Don’t allow none of his baby mothers’ to be manipulative and go back to the judge to have more money taken from him in child support.

Don’t let his Baby Momma be unappreciative, uncooperative or inconsiderate due to the money she is receiving. Don’t let the child's mother have him pay child support on another man’s child simply because it is easier to get money out of him. I pray that if she claims another child as his, they will have to take a DNA test.

PRAYERS FOR THE CHILDREN

Lord, I pray for the father and child, that You will still encourage them and allow him to want to spend time with all his children. Lord, let the child have a caring heart toward their Dad and simply enjoy spending time with their father.
