Last night I was asking for help from God/the universe trying to understand why I am not able to get ahead/ why every step I take sends me two steps back eventually, etc and pleading for help to make money or help my luck get better.

I've only gotten to page two so far, so i don't know if this had been said already.
Do you actually believe in God and believe that he will help you ? Because it doesn't sound like it the way you say that you asked for help from God/the universe. If you believe in God and that he will help you, then why ask the universe ? By doing that you slighted God.
If you are unsure of, or angry at God right now, or just having a problem with your faith (which many people go through, believe me i know) then it very well could have been the devil (sorry) attempting to drive you further away from him.
Gaurdian angels are just that, gaurdians, they are there to protect you, not help out when you're in financial trouble.
I know exactly what you're going through, i've been unemployed for over a year now and my unemployment is about to run out. I have put in soooo many applications and not one ounce of luck. The only responses i recieve are ones that require more experience than i have, experience in a field that i don't have experience in, or a degree that is higher than the one that i have. It is very discouraging out there, job wise right now and it's hard to keep your head up.
Not trying to offend you but you seem very bitter and seem to use a lot of your energy on negative things like your relationship with your family.
Sometimes when in situations like this we tend to let bitterness overwhelm us. Let it go, forget about those that won't help you stop wasting energy on them it won't change them or help you. Instead focus on the family, friends, and neighbors that you do have that care enough to help out. I have very often in my life found that i can depend on friends and neighbors more than family.
You mentioned that you were in the army, have you checked into the possibility of going back in, just for awhile ? If you could re enlist that would make your family eligible to live on a base wouldn't it ? Just a though, don't know if it's possible or not, or if you've already explored that option.
What about checking with your children's school ? Maybe they have an opening for a teacher's aide or something in the lunchroom, etc.
Anyway i too kept asking God to help me find a job, win a little money, etc anything to help me get by, didn't work. I finally started asking him to just help me get through these hard times. So far he has, a neighbor going out of town asking me to feed their cats, i have one person that i clean house for and sometimes they need extra cleaning after a party or something, an extra 50 here, 25 there it all helps out a little.
Check and see if there are any people in your area that need someone to clean their house, or need babysitting services any little bit helps.
I truely thank God for my youngest son and my mother without them i wouldn't be able to get by as well as i do. Do you remember to thank God, or the universe, or whatever higher power you believe in for what little you may have now ?
Maybe ask whatever higher power that you have faith in to simply help you get through these hard times, instead of asking them to help you get out of them.
And don't wish bad things on other people, no matter how much you believe they deserve it, it only zaps the life out of you and Karma will make sure it comes right back at ya double time.
I truely hope things get better for you and yours, hell i hope things get better for all of us. I know it's hard but keep your head up, don't let life turn you bitter and stop you from living and enjoying it.
