We hear your heart and we stand with you in prayer together in Jesus' mighty name over this long and painful situation. To wait almost three months without communication, remorse, or repayment for what you have suffered and paid out of your own pocket is deeply disheartening, and we grieve with you over the injustice, the illness, the damage to your skin, and the burden of costs that were not lawfully yours to bear.
We know that our God sees and He cares about justice. He does not overlook when His people are wronged. Psalm 103:6 says Yahweh executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed. And Psalm 37:28 reminds us that Yahweh loves justice, and doesn’t forsake his saints. Even when a landlord or manager hardens his or her heart, God is still the righteous Judge who calls all people to do what is right. Luke 6:31 teaches, Therefore whatever you desire for men to do to you, you shall also do to them likewise. What has been done to you, leaving you in an apartment without electrical safety, threatening you, and withholding what is owed, is contrary to this command to love neighbor as self, and we rebuke those unjust and inappropriate actions in Jesus name.
We also remember the parable of the persistent widow in Luke 18:1-8, where Jesus taught that we ought always to pray and not to faint, and that God will bring justice for His chosen who cry out to Him day and night. Your persistence in prayer for these months is not in vain. Galatians 6:9 encourages us, Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up. We encourage you to continue to bring this before the Lord while also taking wise and lawful steps, keeping records, receipts, written communications, and seeking godly counsel or lawful advice regarding the security deposit and the repair costs you covered for the house electrical system. Romans 13:3-4 shows that authorities are appointed to restrain wrongdoing, and it is right to seek lawful help for what is owed.
We pray for your healing, for your body has suffered greatly. We lift up your skin and every area that was damaged, asking our Great Physician to restore what has been harmed. Jeremiah 30:17 says, But I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. And Psalm 147:3 says He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. We ask the Lord to heal your skin, to rebuild tissue where it was damaged, and to bring complete restoration, even if the doctors say it may take years. Our God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above what we ask.
We join you in praying that the Holy Spirit will awaken and stir the conscience of the landlord and also the community house manager who promised repayment three months ago. We pray that their hearts would be convicted to repent, to speak truthfully, to cease all threats, and to repay everything that is owed, the security deposit, the technician costs, the costs of alternative shower facilities and the shower pass, and full compensation for the suffering and illness caused by the lack of safety. Proverbs 21:15 says Justice done is a joy to the righteous. May they find no peace until they do what is right and make restitution.
Let us pray together.
Father in heaven, we come before Your throne in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for there is no other name by which we have access to You and no other name by which we are saved, as Acts 4:12 declares. Lord, You see our dear one who has endured electrical danger, illness, skin damage, financial loss, threats, and silence from those responsible. You know every detail and every cost. We ask You to move mightily. Stir the conscience of the landlord and the manager by Your Holy Spirit, bring them to repentance, and cause them to do good and to repay quickly and fully all that they owe. We ask for justice and mercy to meet, that they would return the deposit and all repair costs without further delay.
Lord, we place Your healing hands upon this skin that has become so painful and damaged. Heal and rebuild what was harmed, restore health, ease suffering, and let Your comfort and strength be felt each day. Provide for every financial need, for Philippians 4:19 promises, My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Guard this precious one from fear and from further harm, and let Your peace which surpasses all understanding guard heart and mind in Christ Jesus, as Philippians 4:6-7 teaches. Help us to trust You even in this waiting, leaving vengeance to You, for Romans 12:19 says, Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord, while we continue to seek what is right in a lawful and Christ honoring way.
We thank You, Father, that You hear our cry, that You love justice, and that You are our Healer and Provider. We trust Your perfect timing and Your perfect will. In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ our Lord we pray, amen.
