We have heard your cry and we stand with you together before the Father in Jesus mighty name, bringing every detail of this long and painful situation to Him who sees all and judges righteously. We grieve with you over the suffering you have endured for almost three months without communication or remorse, over the illness that developed, over the threats and inappropriate actions, and over the heavy financial burden of paying for repairs, alternative shower facilities, technicians, and the electricity system which was not lawfully your responsibility as a tenant. We also lift up the deep distress over your skin and the damage that may take years to heal. The Lord knows your pain intimately and He does not overlook injustice.
Scripture tells us that God loves justice and hates oppression. It is written, You shall not oppress your neighbor, nor rob him. The wages of a hired servant shall not remain with you all night until the morning. Leviticus 19:13 and again, Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out, and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies. James 5:4 To withhold a security deposit and repair costs that are rightfully owed, to fail to provide electrical safety, and to respond with threats instead of care, is wrong before God. His ways are perfect and all His ways are justice. Deuteronomy 32:4 He has prepared His throne for judgment. He will judge the world in righteousness. Psalm 9:7-8 We also remember the word, Don't 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 means we entrust justice to God while also seeking what is right and lawful, for it is joy to the righteous to do justice. Proverbs 21:15
We pray together now.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to Your throne of grace. We lift up our dear one who has suffered in this apartment due to lack of electrical safety. You have seen every problem, every illness, every threat, every coin spent for showers and repairs and technicians, and the security deposit that has not been returned. Lord, we ask that You would awaken and stir the conscience of the landlord and also the community house manager by Your Holy Spirit, convicting them of sin and leading them to repentance and to do good. Soften their hearts to acknowledge the harm done, to cease from threats and inappropriate actions, and to repay everything they owe quickly and fully, including the deposit, the repair costs for the electricity system, and all other compensation for suffering and expenses. Let honesty and integrity prevail. We ask that You would bring forth communication where there has been silence and a willingness to make restitution. We pray for Your protection over our loved one from any further harm or intimidation.
We also lift up the body that has been wounded. Lord, You are the One who forgives all our sins and heals all our diseases. Psalm 103:2-3 You heal the broken in heart, and bind up their wounds. Psalm 147:3 We ask for Your healing touch upon the skin that has become damaged, upon every area that received injury. We pray that You would restore health and heal wounds, as You have promised, But I will restore health to you and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. Jeremiah 30:17 Where tissue was damaged, we pray You would rebuild and renew, that healing would come beyond what doctors expect, and that even if the natural process takes years, Your hand would hasten and perfect the restoration. Bring relief from pain, from illness that developed as a result, and restore strength and peace.
Lord, we pray for perseverance for our loved one who has prayed faithfully for months without seeing an answer. Remind us that we must always pray, and not give up. Luke 18:1 Help us not to grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we don't give up. Galatians 6:9 Give wisdom to pursue what is right through lawful and proper means, keeping careful records, seeking godly counsel and appropriate legal help where needed, while keeping a heart that loves enemies and prays for those who mistreat us. Matthew 5:44 Grant peace that surpasses understanding while waiting for Your justice, for You are faithful and You will not forsake those who trust in You.
We thank You, Father, that You hear us when we pray in Jesus name, and that there is no other name by which we are saved and by which we approach You. We trust Your perfect timing and Your perfect justice, and we ask all these things according to Your will in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to continue to document every expense and communication, to seek wise and lawful counsel regarding tenant rights and the return of what is owed, and to care for your health with trusted medical support while we continue to pray for complete healing and just restitution. We will keep standing with you, for God sees, He cares, and He will act in righteousness.
