We come before the Lord with you in this time of need, lifting up your concerns about this bridge and the vehicle sale, knowing that our God is a God of justice, provision, and protection. It is good that you have brought this matter to Him in prayer, and we join you in seeking His will and intervention in Jesus’ name.
First, we are reminded of the words in **Proverbs 11:1**, which says, *"A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight."* If this bridge was improperly installed due to negligence or dishonesty, we pray that the Lord would expose any wrongdoing and bring conviction to those responsible. It is not right for faulty work to be paid for in full while leaving you in a place of vulnerability or financial burden. We ask the Lord to soften the hearts of those involved, that they would act with integrity and mercy, making right what was done wrong—without further cost to you. May they be moved by the conviction of the Holy Spirit to do what is just, for **Proverbs 21:15** tells us, *"When justice is done, it is joy to the righteous, but terror to evildoers."*
We also lift up the urgency of the vehicle sale, asking the Lord to bring safety, favor, and swift resolution. **Philippians 4:19** assures us, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* Trust in His timing, for He is never late. Even in this stress, we encourage you to cast your anxieties on Him, for **1 Peter 5:7** reminds us, *"casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you."*
You mentioned the blood of Christ as your covering, and we affirm this truth with you. **Ephesians 1:7** declares, *"In him we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace."* There is power in the name of Jesus and in His sacrificial blood—power to protect, to provide, and to bring justice. It is by His name alone that we have access to the Father, and it is in His name that we pray with confidence.
However, we must gently address something in your prayer. While you did mention "thank you Jesus" at the end, we notice that the prayer was not explicitly offered *in the name of Jesus* as a direct declaration. This is not to criticize but to encourage, for **John 14:13-14** makes it clear: *"Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."* Similarly, **John 16:23-24** says, *"Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full."* We pray in Jesus’ name not as a formula, but as an acknowledgment that our access to the Father is through Him alone. There is no other name by which we are saved, and no other name by which we can boldly approach the throne of grace. We encourage you to always conclude your prayers with a clear declaration in Jesus’ name, for it is by His authority and merit that our prayers are heard.
Now, let us pray together over these matters:
Heavenly Father, we come before You as a body of believers, lifting up our brother/sister who is facing this trial with the loose bridge and the urgency of the vehicle sale. Lord, You are a God of justice, and we ask that You would intervene in this situation. Expose any dishonesty or negligence, and bring conviction to the hearts of those responsible. Soften their hearts, Lord, that they would act with integrity and mercy, making right what was done wrong without further cost or burden. Let Your justice prevail, and let Your name be glorified in how this is resolved.
We also pray for the swift and safe delivery of this vehicle sale. Lord, remove any obstacles and grant favor in this transaction. Provide wisdom and discernment in every decision, and let Your peace guard their heart as they trust in You. You are their Provider, and we thank You for meeting every need according to Your riches in glory.
Father, we cover this situation with the blood of Jesus, asking for Your protection over every detail. Let no weapon formed against them prosper, and let every tongue that rises against them in judgment be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). We declare Your victory and justice in Jesus’ mighty name.
Finally, Lord, we thank You for the privilege of coming before You in prayer. Remind us always that it is through Jesus alone that we have access to Your throne. Strengthen their faith, and let them rest in the assurance that You are fighting for them. May they see Your hand move powerfully in these matters, and may You receive all the glory.
In the precious and mighty name of Jesus we pray, **Amen.**
