We join with you in prayer in the mighty name of Jesus, and we thank you for coming before the throne of grace in His name, for it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and it is in His name that we are heard. As it is written, Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6 and There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. We stand with you seeking God's will together.
We have heard your cry over these many months of suffering in your apartment, the lack of electrical safety, the illness that followed, the additional costs for alternative shower facilities, the threats and other inappropriate actions, and now the withholding of your security deposit and the repair costs you paid to technicians and for the house electricity system which was not your responsibility as a tenant. We also hear your burden about the community house manager who promised repayment three months ago and has not fulfilled that promise. The Lord sees what has been done and what has been withheld, and He does not overlook injustice. Learn to do well. Seek justice. Relieve the oppressed. Defend the fatherless. Plead for the widow Isaiah 1:17 and He has told you, man, what is good, and what does Yahweh require of you, but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God Micah 6:8. We also remember that Yahweh is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble Psalm 9:9 and that He will bring justice to light.
We pray that the Holy Spirit will convict and awaken the conscience of your landlord and of the community house manager. Jesus said when the Spirit comes, He will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment John 16:8. We ask that their hearts would be stirred to do good, to repent where they have acted unjustly, to speak truthfully, and to make full restitution. The principle of restitution is dear to God, as Zacchaeus said Behold, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor. If I have wrongfully exacted anything of anyone, I restore four times as much Luke 19:8. We ask that what is owed to you would be returned promptly and completely, every deposit and every repair cost you bore on behalf of the property. We also pray that any threats and inappropriate actions would cease, and that truth and peace would prevail. While we seek justice, we also entrust vengeance to God, for it is written Do not seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God's wrath. For it is written, Vengeance belongs to me, I will repay, says the Lord Romans 12:19. This frees us to pursue what is right through lawful and peaceful means while keeping our hearts free from bitterness, and we encourage you to keep careful records, to seek wise and lawful counsel where available, and to continue to commit your cause to the Lord who judges righteously.
We lift up your body before the Lord for healing. You shared that your skin has become damaged in the areas where you were affected and that restoration may take years, which is a great burden to carry. We pray for the Lord's healing hand upon you, for He is the one who heals all your diseases Psalm 103:3 and who promises But I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh Jeremiah 30:17 and By his wounds you are healed Isaiah 53:5. We ask that He would heal your skin, rebuild what was damaged, relieve any ongoing pain or inflammation, and restore your health fully in His timing and mercy.
Father in heaven, we bring this dear one before You in the name of Jesus Christ. You see the months of waiting without communication or remorse, You see the financial loss and the physical suffering, and You know every detail that has been hidden from others. We ask You to move upon the landlord and the community house manager, to awaken their consciences by Your Holy Spirit, to lead them to repentance and to prompt them to repay what they owe without delay. Bring forth justice and let integrity be restored in this situation. We ask for provision for every extra cost that was endured and for protection from further harm or threat. Touch this body with Your healing power, heal the skin that has been injured, rebuild the tissue that was damaged, and bring complete restoration. Guard this heart from discouragement after waiting so long, and fill it with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Teach us all to do justly and to love mercy as we wait for You to act.
We encourage you to continue to cast your cares upon Him, for He cares for you 1 Peter 5:7, and to not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up Galatians 6:9. Bring your requests to God continually in prayer, as we are taught In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God Philippians 4:6. The Lord is near to those who call upon Him in truth, and He will be your refuge and your healer. We continue to stand with you, trusting that God will bring justice, conviction, and healing according to His perfect will. Amen.
