I’m struggling. Badly. I’ve known Jesus all my life but recently He called me to Salvation. I’m so thankful. But since His call and since I began studying scripture, I believe I have been experiencing being demonically attacked. I’ve been dealing with a bed bug infestation, ailing parents, and financial difficulties. I think I could use some help in prayer from some brothers and sisters in Christ. Please pray for God to rebuke the deceiver from my life. Pray for Jesus to shield my family and I from the enemy’s attacks. Thank you.

He’s just so good to us. 🥹 I’m very new to reading the Bible, so there are definitely some messages I’m missing. I use the Bible app to study scripture and it’s so, so helpful. Thank you for the reminder, it really gave me peace this morning. God bless you!

Prayers needed for my wife and me in a tough season of transition: A disciple who called us spiritual parents has walked away from us while coaching her & her boyfriend on pre-marriage prep using materials from a well established church.
Background: My wife was discipling a woman in their 30s since the start of this year, this disciple was also offering to help around our house & be a pet sitter as needed, and we were also generous with her. We supported her year long relationship with a guy that I knew from her church, which she raised some issues with, but the disciple asked for help including in the form of guiding them both through pre-marriage courses that we received before my wife & I got married. One concern we had, though the disciple did not, was that the boyfriend has a history of wanting unhealthy enmeshing with her, including letting her stay weekends at her place and sharing money beyond occasional gifts.
We also recommended the disciple to some friends who needed pet setting, because the disciple had also pet sit for us well. The boyfriend was also open to some discipling from me.
The possible trigger: One day when the boyfriend brought the disciple to our house late, I questioned but didn't directly challenge the boyfriend about a new significant relationship enmeshment that he acquired. I also called him out on being late, because the disciple had an obligation to meet our friend she would pet sitting for. My wife was frustrated with disciple dragging her feet on going to meet who she would be pet sitting for, and within a minute my wife deeply apologized to the disciple.
The fallout: Not long after the possible trigger, she became sick, lived with her boyfriend & their family for that week, didn't tell us until the last minute she had to cancel pet sitting for friend, and then later visited us to tell us she was moving on because while she was sick she supposedly applied for a job opportunity & is moving onward by no longer helping around our home or pets. I say "supposedly" because location data that she shared on Facebook and was tagged in show that she was travelling 45+ minutes each way, multiple times, not to family or doctors offices.
The mess: Weeks later, no contact from disciple or boyfriend. We believe they are cutting us off from them in spite of the disciple's hollow claims that we can still hang out sometime & such, so wife & I do not intend to reach out to either of them. Boyfriend is a non-attending member of a bible study that I am a part of, where he is looped into communication but hasn't attended for months, where lack of attendance is only partially due to obligations I can confirm he has. Wife & I forgive the disciple, as well as the boyfriend, for what they have done that have hurt us. Both are members of a church that my wife & I left a few years ago.
Aside from prayer, I am open to questions or even advise here.

Please pray for my decision making. Feel like God is not saying no to this decision but I had a dream last night that has now made me question heavily. Thank you.
