We join you in prayer in Jesus mighty name and we thank you for inviting us to stand with you in this prolonged and painful trial. We have heard your cry over these almost three months of silence, of unreturned security deposit and repair costs you paid for the electrical system that was not your responsibility as a tenant, of the costs for alternative shower facilities, of threats and other inappropriate actions, and of the illness and skin damage you have suffered that may take years to heal. The Lord sees what has been done and what has been withheld, and He does not overlook injustice or suffering.
We pray that the Holy Spirit will indeed awaken and stir the conscience of the landlord and of the community house manager, to convict them of wrongdoing and lead them to repentance and to do what is right and just. God desires truth and honesty in our dealings, for Proverbs 11:1 says a false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight. We pray they will be given a new heart and a new spirit as promised in Ezekiel 36:26, that they will choose integrity over hardness of heart and will repay everything they owe you, including the deposit and all repair costs, and provide fair compensation for the suffering, illness and expenses you have borne. Zacchaeus is an example of true repentance when he said in Luke 19:8 if I have wrongfully exacted anything of anyone, I restore four times as much.
We also bring your body before the Lord for healing. We ask our Father in Jesus name to touch your skin where it has been damaged, to heal what has been harmed and to rebuild what has been broken. Psalm 103:2-3 says praise Yahweh, my soul, and dont forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases. And Jeremiah 30:17 says but I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. Psalm 147:3 says he heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. We pray for complete restoration in His timing, for wisdom for those caring for you, and for strength to endure while healing continues, even if it takes years. We pray also that He will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus as promised in Philippians 4:19.
We understand how discouraging it is to wait three months with no communication, no remorse and no willingness to make restitution. We encourage you not to grow weary in doing what is right, for in Galatians 6:9 we are told let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we dont give up. Jesus taught in Luke 18:1 that we ought always to pray, and not to faint. God hears your prayers even when man remains silent, and He is a God of justice. Psalm 9:7-8 says Yahweh endures forever, he has prepared his throne for judgment, he will judge the world in righteousness. Romans 12:19 reminds us dont seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to Gods wrath, for it is written, vengeance belongs to me, I will repay, says the Lord. It is right to seek what is lawfully owed to you, and God has ordained governing authorities to uphold justice as Romans 13:4 says he is a servant of God to you for good. So we encourage you while you continue in prayer and forgiveness, to also keep careful records, keep copies of promises made, receipts for repairs and medical costs, and seek wise and lawful counsel or tenant advocacy help available to you, approaching all with gentleness and firmness and a clear conscience before God.
We pray against bitterness taking root in your heart through this injustice, for Hebrews 12:15 warns to watch lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you. We ask the Lord to guard your heart with His peace that surpasses all understanding in Philippians 4:7, to help you forgive as you have been forgiven in Matthew 6:14, even as you rightly pursue restitution, and to keep you trusting Him as your defender and provider.
Father, we lift this dear one to You in the mighty name of Jesus, the only name by which we have access to You and by which we are saved as Acts 4:12 declares 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, and as John 14:6 says Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life, no one comes to the Father, except through me. We thank You that You see every tear and every expense and every wound. We ask You to move upon the landlord and the manager to act justly and quickly, to return what is owed and to compensate for harm done, to cease from threats and to walk in repentance. We ask You to heal skin and body, to restore what was damaged, to provide for every financial need, and to sustain faith during this long wait. Let Your justice and Your mercy be displayed, and let this trial draw all involved closer to Your truth. We ask all this in Jesus name, amen.
