We rejoice with you and give thanks to God with you for this answered prayer and for His provision in this difficult situation. We know how frustrating and discouraging it is to deal with dishonest business practices, to be put off again and again, and to feel powerless to recover what is rightfully yours. We praise God that He heard your prayers and made a way for justice to be done, and that the tracking and postage records bore witness to the truth and helped restore what was owed to you.

The word of God calls us to give thanks in all circumstances, and we join you in that thanksgiving now. In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 And we are reminded In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. Philippians 4:6 You brought your concern before the Lord, you persisted in seeking what was right and honest, and God in His mercy helped bring about a just outcome.

We also hear your heart for others who are facing the same deception from the same place, and we share your burden for them. God loves justice and hates dishonest gain. A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight. Proverbs 11:1 For Yahweh loves justice, and doesn’t forsake his saints. Psalm 37:28 Those who scheme to defraud others will not escape His sight, and He calls all people to repentance and to deal honestly with one another. We pray that those who practice such scams would be convicted, turn from their dishonest ways, and seek to make restitution, for God desires that all would come to repentance. We also take comfort that we are not to seek revenge ourselves, but to give place to God’s wrath, for it is written, Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord. Romans 12:19

We thank God that you acted honestly throughout this dispute, relying on the true evidence of what happened rather than any false claim, and that you did not seek more than what was rightfully owed to you. We encourage you to continue to walk as a good steward of what God has provided, keeping careful records as you did, and seeking wisdom in future dealings. If something seems unclear like an auto ship agreement, we encourage you to read terms carefully and to seek counsel when needed, so you may act with prudence and peace.

We join together now in prayer for you and for all others affected.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, thanking You for Your mercy and faithfulness. We thank You for hearing this prayer and for providing justice in this dispute, for the evidence that showed the truth, and for the full refund for these six items. You are the God who sees, who knows all things, and who defends those who are wronged. We give You all the glory and thank You with a grateful heart. We ask that You would continue to provide for every need according to Your riches in glory, and that You would guard this dear one from further loss or deception. Grant wisdom and discernment for all future purchases and decisions, and let Your peace guard heart and mind. We also lift up all the others who are dealing with this same company and similar scams. Lord, bring justice for them as well, provide for their needs, comfort their frustration, and help them to find honest resolution. We pray for those who operate dishonestly, that You would convict their hearts, lead them to repentance, and turn them from deceit to truth. May Your name be honored in all of these matters. We ask all this in the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, amen.
 
We are so glad you wrote to share this update. After weeks of being put off and seeing more charges come through, we can imagine how discouraging and draining that felt, and how much relief it must be to finally see the full refund for those six items come through. Thank you for giving God the glory for that outcome.

It makes sense that the tracking you kept is what made the difference. Holding onto that proof was wise, and we are grateful it helped resolve this in your favor even though you did not get the postage back. It is also understandable that a past experience where you could not prove delivery still stings. Scams like this leave people feeling taken advantage of, and your compassion for others going through the same thing is a beautiful response.

If it helps going forward, you might want to double check that any auto-ship or subscription is fully cancelled in writing and keep an eye on that card statement for the next month or two, just to be sure nothing else tries to go through. Keeping copies of the dispute letters and tracking numbers together can also save headaches later.

Father, we thank You with our friend for Your help and provision in this dispute. We ask for Your peace over any lingering frustration from past losses and for Your protection over others facing similar dishonest practices. Guide us all to walk in wisdom and trust You with our needs. In Jesus' name, amen.
 
Your thanksgiving has ascended to the ears of the Lord and we join our voices with yours to bless His name for this deliverance. It is well to have grace enough to see that both the bitter cup and the sweet goblet are filled by the same hand, and that even when affliction comes distinctly from the malice or dishonesty of men, it is still under the Lord who sits as a Refiner at the door of the furnace.

We rejoice with you that after weeks of being put off and burdened with goods you did not order, the Lord has made a way for restitution. That the tracking of your postage should be the very means to establish the truth and recover what was owed is a clear token of His providence, for every good gift and every perfect gift descends from the Father of lights. Give Him thanks, therefore, not as those who forget their Benefactor, but as one who knows from whom healing and help have come.

You do well also to moderate your anger against second causes. The scammer may have sought to pull a fast one, as you say, and such deceit is grievous, yet the Lord would have us turn our indignation wholly upon the evil itself and still be ready to do good to those who have wronged us, leaving vengeance in His hands. He scourges but He does not slay His children, and even the sharpest smart from the rod of a Father's hand may be made profitable to teach us prudence, patience, and dependence upon Him.

Take heed then how you render gratitude to Christ who has heard your prayer. The mother of Peter's wife, when she was healed of her fever, arose and ministered unto Him, and so proved her thankfulness by her service. We put the question to you which we put to all who have been delivered, what will you render unto the Lord? Let your gratitude be seen not only in words but in a life that ministers unto Christ, in honesty in all dealings, in warning others who are entangled by the same snares, and in a cheerful contentment that says, God's providence is my inheritance, whether on the hill or in the valley.

We will pray with you that others who are dealing with this same place may also find justice and relief, and that you may be kept from falling into bitterness or covetousness through this trial. Christ is able to keep you from falling and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy. May He keep your heart in that joy and in continual thankfulness.

We thank God with you for His help in this matter and ask Him to establish you more firmly in His grace, to guard you from all dishonest snares in time to come, and to make your whole life a hymn of gratitude to Him who hears the groaning of the prisoner and looks down from the height of His sanctuary to deliver. May the Lord bless you and make you a blessing to others who face the same trouble, for His mercy's sake in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God is so in love with you. Be Encouraged!

Heal Me Lord Jesus Spirit, Soul, And Body
 
Your thanksgiving is right and good, and I join you in giving thanks to God for His help to you in this trouble. For of Him and through Him are all things, and every good outcome comes from His hand and His command. He is the fountain of all good things, rich and needing nothing from us, yet He overflows with mercy toward us.

It is pleasing to God when we come before Him with thanksgiving, as you have done. To give thanks with a grateful heart is one of the most acceptable offerings we can bring. You waited long and were put off, and you sought what was just and honest, what was owed to you for what you returned. That you kept the proof of your return and that justice was finally done is cause for gratitude, and it is right to acknowledge that God saw and helped you.

I also hear your concern for others who face the same kind of deceit. It is a grief that scammers are so plentiful, seeking to take what is not theirs and to wear down honest people. Pray that God would protect those who are vulnerable, expose dishonest dealings, and grant wisdom and patience to all who must contend for what is fair. May He keep your heart and theirs from bitterness, and teach us all to be content, to act honestly, and to trust Him rather than to fight anxiously over earthly things.

May the Lord keep you in peace, guard you from further harm, and lead you to rest in His provision with a thankful heart. We give thanks to God for His unspeakable gift in Jesus Christ our Lord, through whom we have access to the Father and every blessing. I pray that you will continue to walk in thankfulness, closing each day with gratitude and waking again with hope in Him. Amen.
