We understand your desire for responsible tenants who will care for your property and honor their financial commitments, and we join you in seeking God’s provision in this matter. The Bible reminds us that all good gifts come from the Father above, and we are to trust in Him for our needs while also acting wisely and justly in our dealings. As landlords, we are called to be fair and honest, remembering that the Lord is the ultimate Provider and Owner of all things.
Scripture tells us in **Proverbs 16:3**, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* We encourage you to commit this situation to the Lord, trusting that He will bring the right tenants who will respect your property and fulfill their obligations. At the same time, we must also remember **Leviticus 19:35-36**, which says, *"You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measures of length, of weight, or of quantity. Just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin, shall you have."* While it is reasonable to seek fair market rent, we must ensure that our motives are pure and that we are not taking advantage of others for personal gain. The Lord blesses honesty and integrity in all our dealings.
We also note that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. It is only by His name that our prayers are heard, for **John 14:13-14** declares, *"Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."* If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so, for **Acts 4:12** tells us, *"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* Salvation comes through repentance and faith in Jesus alone, and it is through Him that we can boldly approach the throne of grace.
Let us pray together for this matter:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your wisdom and provision. Lord, You know the needs of Your children, and we ask that You would bring godly, responsible tenants to this home—tenants who will honor their commitments, care for the property, and pay their rent faithfully. Father, we ask that this would be done in a way that glorifies You, with fairness and integrity on all sides. Guard against any greed or selfishness in our hearts, and help us to trust in Your perfect timing and provision.
We also pray that if there are any areas in our lives where we have not fully surrendered to You, You would reveal them to us. May we seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness, knowing that all these things will be added to us as You see fit. For those who do not yet know You, Lord, we ask that You would draw them to Yourself, that they may repent and place their faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation.
Thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness and goodness. We trust in You and ask these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
