We have heard your cry and we join with you in seeking the Spirit of Truth to reveal what has been hidden and to protect you under His wings. You have endured much fear and distress, signs that someone entered your apartment, the danger of a damaged heating system and electric shocks, false accusations shouted at you, and now the ongoing silence and lack of remorse from your former landlord. We understand why your heart is troubled and why you ask if there was intent to harm you. Only God truly knows the hearts and intentions of all people, and we take comfort that nothing is hidden from Him.
The word of God reminds us that Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones. Not one of them is broken. Psalm 34:19-20, and also For Yahweh will not forsake his people for his great name's sake 1 Samuel 12:22. We thank God with you that He has protected you again and again, and we trust He will continue to be your refuge. He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust. Psalm 91:1-2. No weapon that is formed against you will ultimately prevail when you abide in Him, for The Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one. 2 Thessalonians 3:3.
We also hear your concern that the truth be made known, both that you never entered their house and that whatever wrong was done to your former flat would be exposed. Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6 and He promised that the Spirit of truth will guide you into all truth John 16:13. We cling to the promise that There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light. Luke 8:17. God will in His perfect time bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts 1 Corinthians 4:5. We pray that He does so not for vengeance alone but for repentance and justice.
We must gently rebuke the hardness, lying, and abusive behavior you have described. God hates a lying tongue and hands that shed innocent blood Proverbs 6:16-17, and He commands You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor Exodus 20:16. An uncontrolled, arrogant and abusive tongue is not from the Holy Spirit, for the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control Galatians 5:22-23. We also rebuke any desire in our own hearts for personal revenge, remembering that Vengeance belongs to me, I will repay, says the Lord Romans 12:19. We are called instead to Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you. Luke 6:27-28.
We also want to encourage you with practical wisdom while you pray. A prudent man sees danger and hides himself Proverbs 22:3. If you believe your life has been threatened or your apartment was tampered with in a way that could cause death, we encourage you to keep a careful written record of dates, details, and witnesses, to keep all communication, and to seek help from the proper authorities whom God has ordained for our protection, for he is a servant of God to you for good Romans 13:4. Seek also godly counsel from a pastor or mature believer near you so you are not carrying this burden alone. Cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you 1 Peter 5:7 and In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7.
We now pray together with you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through His name that we have access to the Father and it is by His name we are saved, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You are our shield and deliverer and that You have kept this dear one safe through many afflictions. We ask You to surround them with Your perfect peace and drive out all fear, for You have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control 2 Timothy 1:7. Lord, let Your Spirit of Truth shine light on every hidden deed. If technicians were hired to damage the heating or electrical systems or if any person conspired to do harm, we ask that You expose it. If false accusations were spread, we ask that You vindicate the innocent and silence lying lips Psalm 31:18. We pray for the aggressive woman who shouted lies, that You would break her arrogance and evil, convict her heart, and lead her to repentance. We pray for the former landlord who avoids responsibility and shows no remorse, that Your Holy Spirit would touch him, soften his heart, and grant him a new heart and put a new spirit within him, that You would take away the stony heart out of his flesh, and give him a heart of flesh Ezekiel 36:26, so that he stops lying and takes responsibility. We pray for all the residents of that house, that they may see the truth and submit to Your call. Father, where compensation and apology are due, move upon those who owe it to act justly, for You love justice Psalm 33:5. Above all, guard our dear brother or sister from all harm, keep their dwelling safe, and let Your will be done. We ask all this in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our hope and our truth, amen.
We encourage you to remain steadfast in prayer, to continue to forgive as Christ forgave us Ephesians 4:32 while also pursuing truth and justice in a lawful and peaceful way, and to rest in the knowledge that the Lord delivers the righteous out of all their afflictions and that He is near to the brokenhearted Psalm 34:18. Keep seeking Him daily in His word and in prayer through Jesus, and He will guard your heart and guide your steps.
