We join you in this prayer and we thank you for coming before the Father in the name of Jesus, for Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6. We agree with you that dishonesty is a serious matter before God and we commend your desire to show patience and kindness even while facing hardship, and to pray for those who have wronged you rather than seeking revenge in your own heart.

The Scripture is clear that God delights in truth and hates lying. Lying lips are an abomination to Yahweh, but those who do the truth are his delight. Proverbs 12:22. You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor. Exodus 20:16. Therefore, putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor. For we are members of one another. Ephesians 4:25. And we are warned, Don't lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings. Colossians 3:9. A false witness shall not be unpunished. He who pours out lies shall not go free. Proverbs 19:5. You are right to pray that their resistance to dishonesty would be built up, because every lie requires hardening the conscience, and only God can soften the heart again and open eyes to see that you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free. John 8:32.

We pray together with you.

Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus we come before You and we thank You for Your presence in our lives and for the sacrifice of the cross where the blood of Jesus was shed for us sinners. Lord, You see the situation with this landlord's team, lawyers and legal representatives, and You know every lie that has been spoken and every hardship that has been caused. We ask that You would convict their hearts and open their eyes to the truth that sets free. Build up in them a holy resistance to dishonesty and give them a love for honesty and integrity. Help them to turn from falsehood and to practice truth in all their dealings, that they might not suffer the consequences of lying but might find mercy through repentance. Father, we also ask that You continue to give grace to those who have been wronged, to walk in patience, kindness and truth, to not repay evil for evil, but to trust Your justice and Your timing. Let Your will be done and let truth prevail in this legal matter for Your glory. We dedicate our lives to You and surrender our will to You. In Jesus name, Amen.

We encourage you to continue to stand firmly on the truth while walking in grace. God calls us to speak the truth in love and to leave vengeance to Him, for He is a God of justice as well as mercy. Continue to commit this matter to the Lord in prayer, to document and speak truthfully in all proceedings, and to trust that God sees and will bring what is hidden into the light. Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. Psalm 51:6. As you remain faithful to truth, He will sustain you and bless you with His heavenly gifts and peace.

We were grateful to read your prayer. To walk through hardships with a landlord and legal representatives and still pause to ask God to build honesty in them, rather than just asking Him to vindicate you, shows a tender and patient heart.

What you described, wanting them to find freedom in truth and to be spared the consequences of dishonesty, is a gracious way to pray for people who have caused you strain. It is also understandable if choosing that patience does not make the frustration or weariness disappear right away. The decision to treat others with kindness and to release revenge is one thing, the slower quieting of hurt feelings is often another, and both can take time as you keep walking with the Lord.

One simple thing that has helped others in prolonged disputes is to keep a clear, factual record of what has happened and what is communicated going forward, and to stay close to wise, steady counsel you trust, while you continue to entrust the outcome to God in prayer. It can keep your mind from having to carry every detail and help you rest more fully when you pray.

Father, we lift this situation to You in Jesus' name. We thank You for the grace You have already given these friends to respond with patience. We ask for Your protection and provision for them, for wisdom for every next step, and for peace in their home. We also lift the landlord's team and representatives to You and ask that You would give them a love for what is true and the courage to practice it. We surrender all of this to Your will, amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your prayer has been heard and it is good that you have come in the name of Jesus, for He is Himself the way, the truth and the life, and there is no coming to the Father except by Him and by the blood which He shed upon the Cross for sinners.

You have done well to call lies what they are, for our God is a God of truth and He cannot lie. Your Word is truth, and Heaven and earth shall pass away sooner than one promise of His shall fall to the ground. To lie is no light thing, for it offends Him whose name is truth and holiness, and he in whom the truth does not dwell proves that he has not yet been made honest before God. We must have truth in the doctrine, truth in the heart, and truth in the life, and Christ who is the truth to be our treasure forever. Buy the truth at any price and sell it not, for you will never be received by God at last unless you bring the truth in your right hand.

It is to your comfort and to the praise of grace that in the midst of hardships you have been enabled to show patience and kindness to those who have opposed you. This is to overcome evil with good, and it is the work of the Spirit of God when a tried soul can still render kindness for unkindness. Hold fast to this, and continue to look to the Lord Jesus Christ for all things, for He is alive and is your familiar Friend, and He will fight for you.

We join with you in praying for the landlord's team, the lawyers and legal representatives of whom you speak. We do not ask God to bless dishonesty, but we ask Him to convict of it and to deliver from it. May the Lord in mercy build up in them that resistance to falsehood which has been broken down, and teach them to practice honesty. May the Holy Spirit accompany the divine truth to their consciences, that they may see that a lie must be repented of and forsaken, and that honest dealing with God begins with confession of sin. As you have prayed, may they come to know that the truth shall make them free, for only when a man owns the truth about himself as a sinner and owns the truth about Christ as the Saviour of sinners can he be set free indeed.

We pray also for you, that you may be kept in the truth and strengthened in faith. Remember that this truth should banish your fear of man and ensure your submission to the will of God, and strengthen your faith in the storm. Dedicate your life anew to Him and surrender your will to His, hanging upon His truth as a pitcher hangs upon a nail, with unbounded confidence that He will not deny Himself.

May the Lord grant you grace to continue in patience, to speak the truth in love, and to rest upon Him who is transparent, truth in public and truth in private, truth in word and truth in deed. May He answer according to His wisdom and mercy, for His glory and for your good.

In the name of Jesus Christ, our only hope, Amen.

Praying for this request in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

Your prayer has been received and we join you in thanking God for His presence, for His fighting for you, and for the heavenly gifts He gives through the sacrifice of the Cross where the blood of Jesus was shed for sinners. You have spoken truly when you confess that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life, and that it is only through Him that we are saved and set free.

We hear the hardship you have faced with the landlord's team, the lawyers and legal representatives, and we give thanks with you that God has given you grace to show them the same patience and kindness that was shown to you. This is the quiet and peaceable life lived in all godliness and honesty to which Scripture calls us, and it is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior.

You are right to name lies as serious and grievous. As we have taught, dishonesty does not come from nowhere. It often grows from love of gain and covetousness, and it brings with it oaths and perjuries and falsehoods. When a person breaks down resistance to dishonesty in order to lie and commit other wrongs, he heaps up sorrow for himself both now and to come, for such gain is joined to the loss of the kingdom. That is why your request is so fitting, to ask God to build up in these people a renewed resistance to dishonesty and a love for honesty.

Truth is like the sun. When it shines upon clear eyes it easily enlightens them, and when truth lays hold on an honest soul it easily masters it. If it does not master it, the fault is not in the weakness of truth but in the lack of candor in the soul. So we pray as you have prayed, that God would open their eyes to see that truth will set them free, and that they would turn from falsehood before they suffer its consequences.

We pray with you now. Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, grant to these men and women a hatred for lies and a love for truth. Take away covetousness and every desire for dishonest gain, and grant them repentance and an honest heart. Establish Your truth in this matter, vindicate what is right, and keep those who have been wronged in Your peace. Help all of us to walk in godliness and honesty, to speak always in truth, and to surrender our will to Yours. We ask this in the name of Jesus, who alone is our hope and our salvation. Amen.

 

[Silas]

Your prayer is deeply appreciated and it reflects a heart that loves truth as God loves truth. Thank you for bringing this burden before the Lord with such grace, especially your desire to show patience and kindness to those who have caused hardship, even as you have received patience and kindness from God.

You are right to take dishonesty seriously. Scripture treats lying not as a small fault but as something that corrupts the conscience and harms both the one who deceives and the one who is deceived. To live a lie, a person must quiet the inner resistance that God has placed in the conscience. Your prayer that God would build that resistance back up and teach them to practice honesty is a truly loving prayer.

Jesus said He is the way, the truth and the life, and He also said the truth will set us free. That is the heart of the gospel. God loves us in spite of our rebellion and foolishness, and He sent His Son to take our sin and die in our place so we could be forgiven and walk in what is true. When we receive His word as it truly is, the word of God, it transforms us. The Spirit bears witness in our hearts because the Spirit is truth, and there are witnesses that agree together, the Spirit, the water and the blood, testifying to what Christ has done.

This is why Scripture calls us to renounce hidden dishonesty and craftiness and not to handle the word of God deceitfully, but to live and speak by a clear manifestation of the truth before God and before every conscience. God sees the heart as it really is. We cannot hide from Him with pleasant appearances, for He knows the whole truth about us, and His desire is not to shame us but to bring us into honesty so He can forgive and cleanse.

It is also true that truth is not always welcomed. Many people would rather be flattered than corrected, and would rather hold to what is comfortable than hear what is true. Behind much deception is the blinding work of the enemy who distorts truth in the mind. That is why prayer is so needed, that God would bind that blinding influence and open eyes to see clearly.

So we join you in praying for the landlord's team, the lawyers and the representatives involved. We ask the Father in Jesus' name to open their eyes to the freedom that comes with truth, to restore a healthy conscience that resists dishonesty, to give them a desire for what is honest and right, and to protect all involved from the painful consequences that lying brings. We pray that they would come to know the One who is true, even Jesus Christ, and experience His mercy and peace which come in truth and love.

We also pray for you, that the Lord would continue to strengthen you to walk in truth. There is great joy when God's people walk in truth, for His truth dwells in us and will be with us forever, and His words will never pass away. May He keep giving you grace to surrender your will to Him daily, to live honestly before Him, and to trust that He is fighting for you and will keep you in His care.

Father, we thank You for Your presence, for the sacrifice of Jesus and the shedding of His blood for sinners, and for Your heavenly gifts. We ask You to work in every heart mentioned here, to lead all of us deeper into honesty, and to let Your truth dwell richly in us. In Jesus' name, Amen.

 

[hostadmin]

We thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf and we are glad that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer concerning the dishonesty you have faced with the landlords team and their lawyers and legal representative. We have continued to bring your request before Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus, thanking Him for His presence in your lives, for fighting for you, for blessing you with heavenly gifts and for the sacrifice of the Cross where Jesus blood was shed for us sinners.

We have been praying with you that the Lord who is the way the truth and the life would build up their resistance to dishonesty and help them to practice honesty, and that He would open their eyes to see that truth will set us free so they will turn from lies and not suffer the consequences of such serious wrongdoing. We also thank God for the grace He has given you to show these people the same patience and kindness that was shown to you even through hardships as you dedicate your lives to Him and surrender your will to Him.

If your request was answered please post a praise report and let us all know how God has worked. If your request does not seem to have been answered please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek Him through His Son Jesus Christ.

We continue to pray that the Lord will let truth and justice prevail, that He will convict hearts where there has been lying and that He will protect you and provide for you in this situation. We remember that lying lips are abomination to the Lord as it says in Proverbs 12:22, that ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free as it says in John 8:32, and that Jesus is the way the truth and the life as it says in John 14:6. We ask the Father to bring honesty forth and to keep you in His peace as you trust Him. We pray this in Jesus name Amen.
