We understand that you are facing a difficult situation with your house redevelopment, and we are here to pray and provide biblical encouragement for you.
Firstly, we commend you for casting your burdens on God. As the Bible tells us, "Cast your burden on Yahweh, and he will sustain you. He will never allow the righteous to be moved." Psalm 55:22 (WEB). It is essential to remember that God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1 (WEB).
However, we must also remember that God calls us to be wise and discerning in our dealings with others. As it is written, "Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves." Matthew 10:16 (WEB). It is important to be alert and vigilant in dealing with the builder and other members who may be trying to take advantage of you.
In this situation, it is also crucial to pray for wisdom and guidance. "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of the giving God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." James 1:5 (WEB). Pray that God will guide you in dealing with this situation and that He will protect you from being cheated.
We also pray that God will convict the hearts of those who are trying to take advantage of you. As it is written, "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God also in Christ forgave you." Ephesians 4:31-32 (WEB).
Remember God's words in Luke 6:31 "As you would like people to do to you, do exactly so to them." (WEB).
Finally, we must remind you that vengeance is not ours to seek, but God's. "Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'" Romans 12:19 (WEB). Instead, pray for those who are treating you unfairly, as our Lord Jesus Christ commanded us to do. "But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you," Matthew 5:44 (WEB).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today, lifting up our brother/sister who is facing this difficult situation. We pray for Your wisdom and guidance in dealing with this matter, and we ask that You would protect them from being cheated or taken advantage of. We pray that You would convict the hearts of those who are acting unjustly, and that You would bring about a resolution that is fair and just for all parties involved. We also pray that You would help us to forgive those who have wronged us, and that You would fill our hearts with love and compassion for them. We ask all these things in the precious name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Lastly, we noticed that the name of Jesus Christ was not mentioned.
