Compensation

[Kensem]

Please pray in Jesus mighty name that the landlord will pay compensation for the problems (###) that occurred in the apartment due to the lack of electrical safety, as well as for the illness that developed as a result, ### problems, ###, the cost of alternative shower facilities or a shower pass, threats, and other inappropriate actions.

Please pray the landlord's conscience is awakened and stirred by the Holy Spirit to do good and repent.

Update: I have been asking for prayers for almost three months, but there has been no communication, remorse or willingness to compensate me for my suffering.

Update: The landlord hasn't returned the security deposit or the repair costs I paid the technicians... Please pray that he repays everything he owes us!

Update: The community house manager hasn't returned the repair costs, though she promised to do so three months ago. I also paid to repair the house's electricity system which is not lawfully my responsibility to cover the cost as a tenant.
My skin has become ### and ### in the areas where I received ###. It may take years for ###, which is awful. Please pray that ### heal and that ### is rebuilt where the ### was damaged.

We join you in prayer together in Jesus' mighty name and we have heard the burden you have carried for these many months with the unsafe electrical conditions in your apartment, the illness and skin affliction that followed, the costs you bore for repairs and alternative shower facilities, the threats and inappropriate actions, and the painful waiting without communication or remorse or repayment of your security deposit and repair costs both from the landlord and from the community house manager.

We know this long delay of nearly three months without justice is wearying, and we bring your cause before the Lord who sees all that is done in secret and who is a defender of those who are wronged. The Scripture tells us You shall not oppress your neighbor, nor rob him Lev 19:13 and also Don't oppress the hired servant who is poor and needy Deut 24:14 and again Don't exploit the poor, because he is poor, and don't crush the needy in court, for Yahweh will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them Prov 22:22-23. The Lord desires that what is owed be repaid and that people treat one another as they wish to be treated, for the Lord said Therefore whatever you desire for men to do to you, you shall also do to them Luke 6:31. We pray that the Holy Spirit will awaken and stir the conscience of your landlord and the community house manager to do what is right, to speak truthfully, to repent where there has been wrongdoing, and to restore what has been withheld.

We lift up your need for justice and provision before our Heavenly Father. We ask in Jesus name that He would move upon the hearts of those who owe you to act with honesty and promptness, to return the security deposit and all the repair costs you paid for the house electrical system that was not lawfully your responsibility, and to provide fair compensation for the suffering, illness, and extra costs you have endured. We pray that the Lord would give you wisdom and favor as you seek lawful and peaceful means to pursue what is owed, and that He would open doors for proper authorities or mediation to bring resolution. We remember the word Vengeance belongs to me, I will repay, says the Lord Rom 12:19, so we place this matter into His just hands while we also do what is right and orderly on earth.

We also bring your body and healing before the Lord with great compassion. We are sorrowful to hear how your skin has been affected and how long the healing may take, and we ask our Great Physician to touch you. We pray Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don't forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases Psalm 103:2-3 and we cling to His promise But I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh Jer 30:17. We ask in Jesus name for complete healing of your skin, for restoration where tissue was damaged, for relief from pain and irritation, and for renewed strength and health in every area affected by the electrical problems. We also pray Is any among you sick Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up James 5:14-15, and we ask that the Lord would raise you up and rebuild what was harmed.

We encourage you to continue to trust in the Lord's nearness and justice while guarding your heart from bitterness. It is right to seek what is owed and to desire repentance from those who have wronged you, and we encourage you to keep careful records, to seek godly counsel and, if needed, lawful help from appropriate housing or legal authorities, while continuing to pray for those who have caused you harm that they may come to repentance. We thank you for asking in the mighty name of Jesus, for there is no other name by which we have access to the Father and by which we are saved, for there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus 1 Tim 2:5, and Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6.

Father, we come together in Jesus name and ask for Your justice and mercy to meet in this situation. Convict the landlord and the manager where they have withheld what is due, soften their hearts to communicate with honesty, to show remorse, and to repay every debt fully and quickly. Bring healing to our dear one who is suffering, restore skin and health, comfort the weary spirit after months of waiting, provide for every financial need, and let Your peace guard heart and mind. Give wisdom for next steps and let Your will be done, that You may be glorified both in justice and in healing. We ask all this in the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and our hope. Amen.

Thank you for letting us know how this has continued. Waiting almost three months with no communication or willingness to make things right, while you are still carrying repair costs, a security deposit, and ongoing skin and health concerns, is exhausting. We hear how much you have tried to do what is right as a tenant, even paying for electrical repairs that were not your responsibility.

We are praying with you for healing and for a fair resolution. For your skin and the other health effects you mentioned, please consider seeing a doctor or dermatologist alongside prayer, not instead of it, so you can get careful, in-person care and documentation of what you are experiencing.

For the financial part, it can help to keep one simple file with copies of receipts, photos, messages with the landlord and house manager, and any written promises to repay. When you are able, a local tenant advice service or legal aid clinic can help you understand next steps for recovering a deposit and repair costs in your area. You do not have to sort it all at once.

We know you are asking that the landlord and manager would be stirred to do what is honest and to make whole what is owed. That desire for restitution matters, and God sees both the practical loss and the discouragement underneath it.

Father, in Jesus' name we bring this situation to You. We ask for healing for the damaged skin and for strength in the body, for wisdom and provision in the financial strain, and that those responsible would take responsibility and return what is owed. Give peace and clear guidance for each next step. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your burden has been carried before the Lord with prayerful care, and we have entreated Him on your behalf in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, through whom alone we have access to the Father and in whom alone is salvation.

We have prayed that the Lord, who is just and who beholds all deeds done in secret, would stir the conscience of the landlord and of the house manager, that the Holy Spirit would awaken them to do what is right and to repent of all harshness, threats and neglect. We have asked that where payment is truly owed, for the security deposit, for the repairs you bore though the law lays them not upon the tenant, and for the costs of the electrical failures and the needful provision for washing, the Lord would move them to restore what is due, and to deal honestly and peaceably. We do not ask the Lord to overlook wrong, but to bring forth justice tempered with mercy, and to grant you favor in seeking what is lawful and right.

We have prayed also for your body, that He who is our healer would lay His hand upon your skin where it has been injured and disfigured. There is healing virtue in Christ, for the leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of the nations, and even the least thing about Christ has healing in it. We have asked that He would rebuild what has been damaged, ease what is painful to bear, and in His time restore you, whether by His immediate mercy or by the slow work of nature under His hand.

In this long waiting of nearly three months without word or remorse, we know your heart has been tried. Remember that there is forgiveness with God, that He may be feared, and that His forgiveness in Christ is full, free and eternal, given without condition to the repenting and believing sinner. As you have received such forgiveness, you are called to forgive even as Christ forgave you, not in a way that calls evil good or denies justice, but in a way that leaves vengeance with the Lord and keeps your own heart from bitterness. To forgive is not to say that no debt was owed, but to entrust the debt to Him who judges righteously, while you continue to seek what is just by rightful means.

We have prayed that the Lord would keep you in this posture, that He would grant you patience under trial, wisdom in all dealings with those set over the house, and peace that your case is known in heaven though it seems forgotten on earth. May He who first forgives and then heals, who pardons iniquity and removes the consequences of sin in His own time and way, comfort you with the assurance that He has not forgotten you, and that He will provide for your need according to His abundant mercy in Christ Jesus.

We will continue to bear you up before the throne, that justice may be done, that consciences may be tendered, and that your body and spirit may be healed and strengthened for His glory.
