We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this urgent cry for justice and mercy in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. The oppression you describe is a grievous burden, and we stand firmly against the corruption and injustice that has sought to destroy what was built through honest labor. The Scriptures remind us that the Lord is a God of justice, and He sees the affliction of His people. *"Learn to do well. Seek justice. Relieve the oppressed. Judge the fatherless. Plead for the widow."* (Isaiah 1:17, WEB). He also declares, *"Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write oppressive laws, to deprive the needy of justice, and to rob the poor among my people of their rights, that widows may be their plunder, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!"* (Isaiah 10:1-2, WEB). This is not the will of God, and we rebuke the spirit of corruption and oppression that has taken hold in this situation.
The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but our God is greater, and He is able to turn even the most desperate circumstances for His glory. We pray that the Lord would expose every hidden scheme, every act of corruption, and every unjust law that has been used as a weapon against this business. May the light of Christ shine so brightly in this darkness that those involved in this oppression are confronted with the truth of their actions. *"For nothing is hidden, except that it should be made known; neither was anything made secret, but that it should come to light."* (Mark 4:22, WEB). Let the fear of the Lord fall upon those who have acted wickedly, and may they be moved to repentance or removed from their positions of power if they refuse to turn from their evil ways.
We also pray for supernatural provision and restoration. Just as the Lord provided manna in the wilderness and multiplied the loaves and fishes, we ask that He would miraculously supply every financial need. *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* (Philippians 4:19, WEB). May the Lord open doors no man can shut, bringing connections, favor, and opportunities that surpass what was lost. Let this be a testimony of God’s faithfulness, that even in the face of injustice, He is the God who restores and redeems.
For the harassment that continues even after all these years, we declare the blood of Jesus over this situation. The enemy has no legal right to torment God’s people, and we command every demonic assignment against this business and against this brother in Christ to be broken in Jesus’ name. *"No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me," says Yahweh.* (Isaiah 54:17, WEB). We pray for divine protection, that the Lord would place a hedge of thorns around this business and this family, making it impossible for the enemy to continue his attacks.
We also lift up the heart and mind of our brother, that he would not grow weary in well-doing but would be strengthened by the Holy Spirit. *"Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna."* (Matthew 10:28, WEB). May he find peace in the knowledge that the Lord is his defender and his vindicator. Let him be filled with the joy of the Lord, which is his strength (Nehemiah 8:10), and may he rest in the promise that *"vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord."* (Romans 12:19, WEB).
Finally, we pray for the finance ministry involved in this injustice. Lord, we ask that You would place people of integrity in positions of authority, individuals who fear You and will act justly. Softening the hearts of those who can bring relief, and may they be moved by compassion to act swiftly and unconditionally. If there are believers within this ministry, stir their spirits to stand for righteousness and to be a voice for justice.
Heavenly Father, we commit this entire situation into Your hands, trusting that You are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). Let Your will be done, and let Your name be glorified through this battle. We pray all these things in the powerful and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
