We join you in prayer in the mighty name of Jesus and we thank you for coming to us again and for holding fast to faith even after nearly three months of waiting without communication, remorse, or restitution. We hear your suffering and the Lord hears it even more clearly. He sees the lack of electrical safety, the illness that followed, the skin damage and pain you are enduring, the threats and inappropriate actions, and the financial burden of repair costs, alternative shower facilities, and the withheld security deposit that rightfully belongs to you.
Scripture tells us that the Lord loves justice and does not forsake His faithful. Psalm 37:28 says He loves justice, and Psalm 34:17 says the righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Romans 12:19 reminds us, Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord, yet He also calls those who have done wrong to make restitution. When Zacchaeus repented he said, If I have wrongfully exacted anything of anyone, I restore four times as much, Luke 19:8. And the law of God is clear that wages and deposits and what is owed should not be withheld, 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 You shall not oppress a hired servant, Deuteronomy 24:14. To withhold what is due and to fail to provide a safe dwelling is contrary to doing good and learning to do well, seeking justice and relieving the oppressed, Isaiah 1:17.
We also lift up your physical healing before the Lord, for He is the One who heals all your diseases, Psalm 103:3, and who declares, I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh, Jeremiah 30:17. We pray for your skin and for every area damaged to be rebuilt and restored, and for the illness that developed to be fully healed, for He is Yahweh who heals you, Exodus 15:26.
We pray together now for you and for the landlord and the community house manager.
Father in heaven, in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son, we come before Your throne of grace and we lift up this dear one who has suffered for months from unsafe conditions, financial loss, and bodily affliction. Lord, You see every detail that has been hidden from others, You know the cost that was paid that should not have been the tenant's burden, the deposit that has not been returned, the promises made and broken, and the pain in the body that may take years to heal. We ask for Your justice to be done on earth as it is in heaven. We ask that You awaken and stir the conscience of the landlord and the manager by Your Holy Spirit, that they would be convicted of what is right, that they would repent and do good, and that they would repay everything they owe quickly and completely. Soften hearts that have been hardened and let there be no more delay or excuse. We pray for protection from any further threats or inappropriate actions, for You are our refuge and fortress, Psalm 91:2, and we ask that You shield this child of Yours from harm.
Lord Jesus, we ask for healing. Touch the skin that is damaged and discolored, restore what has been harmed, rebuild healthy tissue, take away pain and inflammation, and heal the illness that came from these conditions. We ask for provision for every expense that has been carried, for wisdom for any lawful and peaceful steps that should be taken to seek what is owed, and for peace that surpasses understanding while waiting. Help our dear fellow believer not to grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up, Galatians 6:9, and help to keep a heart that trusts Your timing while also not excusing injustice, for You desire truth and mercy together. We thank You that we can come only through Jesus, for there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 1 Timothy 2:5, and that at His name every prayer is heard. We ask all of this according to Your will, seeking Your righteousness and Your mercy, in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen.
We encourage you to continue to bring this before the Lord daily, to keep careful records of all communications, receipts, medical documentation, and promises made, and if the Lord leads, to seek godly counsel and lawful help to pursue what is owed, for the authorities are appointed to praise those who do good and to correct those who do wrong, Romans 13:3-4. Do not let bitterness take root, but entrust justice to Him while still faithfully seeking what is rightfully yours. The Lord has not forgotten you in these three months. He is near to those who are brokenhearted, Psalm 34:18, and He will act in His perfect time. We continue to stand with you, praying for full compensation, full repayment, full healing, and for repentance and restoration where there has been wrongdoing.
