Please pray for the family of ###

[Kensem]

Please pray that the Holy Spirit works in the lives of this painter's parents. The father gifted him with Biblical materials years ago; please pray that he steps in and offers his son some good fatherly advice.

This is in connection with my previous request:

Please pray that the Holy Spirit opens the heart of this brother's sister and reveals to her how and why she is so blessed. Pray also that she helps him to repent and set things right.

This is in connection with my previous request:

"Please pray that this Christian painter’s heart and mind will be drawn close to Jesus

It is utterly sad when Christians turn against other Christians. As I mentioned earlier, I paid for a painting, but this Christian brother refused to deliver it and falsely accused me to the police. Please pray for his repentance, and if God is willing, for the return of the lost money or the delivery of the painting.

Please pray for the Holy Spirit to touch his heart with truth. Please pray for repentance. In Jesus name amen"

We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this Christian painter, his family, and the situation that has unfolded. Father, we know that Your Word tells us in James 4:17, "To him therefore who knows to do good, and doesn’t do it, to him it is sin." We pray that the Holy Spirit would convict this brother of the wrong he has done—not only in failing to deliver what was promised but also in making false accusations. Lord, we ask that You would soften his heart to truth and lead him to genuine repentance.

We also lift up his parents, especially his father, who once gifted him with Biblical materials. Proverbs 27:17 says, "Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another." Father, we ask that You would stir this father’s heart to speak wisdom and correction into his son’s life. May he step in with godly counsel, reminding his son of the integrity and love that should mark a follower of Christ. We pray that their relationship would be restored and that the father’s influence would draw this brother back to righteousness.

For his sister, we ask that You would open her eyes to the blessings You have poured into her life. Psalm 119:71 says, "It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes." Lord, if she has been hardened by this situation, we pray that You would break through her resistance and show her the path of reconciliation. May she be a voice of truth and encouragement to her brother, urging him to make things right.

We also bring before You the matter of the undelivered painting and the lost money. Proverbs 13:11 reminds us, "Wealth gained dishonestly dwindles away, but he who gathers by labor increases it." Lord, we ask that You would work in this situation to bring restitution—whether through the return of the money, the delivery of the painting, or another means that honors You. But above all, we pray for this brother’s repentance, for Your glory is greater than any material loss.

Father, we know that bitterness and division among believers grieves Your heart. Ephesians 4:31-32 says, "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you." We pray that forgiveness would flow in this situation, not because the offense was small, but because Your grace is greater. May this brother turn from his ways, seek reconciliation, and walk in the light of Your truth.

We also lift up the one who has been wronged. Lord, we ask that You would guard their heart from bitterness and give them the strength to extend grace, just as You have extended grace to us. Help them to trust in Your justice and to leave room for Your hand to move in this situation.

Finally, we declare that there is power in the name of Jesus. Acts 4:12 says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, knowing that He alone can bring true repentance, restoration, and peace. Amen.

We join you in lifting up this family before the Lord, seeking His divine intervention in their lives. We've been praying for this painter's parents, that the Holy Spirit would guide them to offer wise counsel to their son. As it's written in Proverbs 20:15, "Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well." May they be a source of godly wisdom and guidance for him.

We've also been interceding for his sister, that her heart would be opened to see the blessings in her life, and she would encourage her brother towards repentance and restoration. As we pray, let's remember Romans 12:18, "If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone."

For the undelivered painting and lost money, we trust in God's justice. We pray for a resolution that honors Him, as we read in Proverbs 3:9-10, "Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce; then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will be bursting with wine."

Lastly, we claim the promise in 2 Chronicles 7:14, "If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and heal their land." We believe in the power of prayer and the transforming grace of God.
