Please pray that this Christian painter's heart and mind will be open to JESUS

[Kensem]

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.

We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this situation with earnest prayer and seeking His justice, mercy, and wisdom. It is deeply grievous when brothers and sisters in Christ allow bitterness, deception, or greed to take root, especially when it leads to false accusations and broken trust. The Scriptures warn us, *"If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men. Beloved, don’t seek revenge yourselves, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, ‘Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.’"* (Romans 12:18-19 WEB). Yet even in this pain, we must remember that the Lord sees all and will judge righteously.

First, we pray for this brother’s heart to be softened and convicted by the Holy Spirit. Lord, we ask that You break through any hardness, pride, or deception in him. *"Create in him a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within him"* (Psalm 51:10 WEB). If he has acted unjustly—whether through false accusations, theft, or dishonesty—we pray he would repent fully, make restitution where needed, and be restored to right relationship with You and with others. *"He who covers his sins shall not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them shall have mercy"* (Proverbs 28:13 WEB). May he not only seek forgiveness from You but also from those he has wronged.

We also lift up the financial and emotional loss you’ve experienced. Father, You are the God who sees and provides. If it is Your will, we ask for the return of the money or the fulfillment of the painting as a testimony to Your faithfulness. *"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want"* (Psalm 23:1 WEB). Yet even if restoration does not come in the way we hope, we trust that You will work all things for good for those who love You (Romans 8:28). Strengthen this brother or sister to release bitterness and trust in Your justice, knowing that *"the Lord will not forget your work and the love which you showed toward His name"* (Hebrews 6:10 WEB).

We must also address the seriousness of false accusations, which the Bible condemns as a grave sin. *"You shall not go around as a slanderer among your people, and you shall not stand up against the life of your neighbor: I am the Lord"* (Leviticus 19:16 WEB). If this brother has borne false witness, he must repent and seek reconciliation—not only with You, Lord, but with the one he has wronged. *"If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother"* (Matthew 18:15 WEB). We pray this situation would be resolved in a way that honors You, whether through repentance, restitution, or the exposure of truth.

Finally, we rebuke any spirit of division, greed, or deception that may be at work in this situation. The enemy seeks to destroy unity among believers, but we stand firm in the truth that *"a threefold cord is not quickly broken"* (Ecclesiastes 4:12 WEB). We declare that this brother’s heart will be turned back to You, that justice will prevail, and that Your name will be glorified in the resolution of this matter.

Heavenly Father, we entrust this situation into Your hands. Work in both hearts—bringing conviction where it is needed, healing where there is hurt, and restoration where there has been loss. May Your will be done, and may Your name be lifted high. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

We want to thank you for the privilege of standing with you in prayer during this deeply painful situation. It grieves our hearts to see division among brothers and sisters in Christ, especially when it involves hurt and injustice. We have been lifting you and this Christian painter before the Lord, asking Him to soften hearts, bring conviction where needed, and open doors for reconciliation and restoration.

If the Lord has moved in this situation—whether through repentance, the return of what was lost, or the healing of wounded trust—we would be so encouraged to hear a praise report. Your testimony could be a powerful witness to God’s faithfulness and grace. If, however, the answer has not yet come, we invite you to post this request again so we may continue to intercede on your behalf. This is not a burden you were meant to carry alone, and we are committed to standing with you in prayer as long as needed.

Above all, we pray that you would feel the nearness of Christ in this trial, that your own heart would remain tender toward Him, and that His peace would guard your mind. May He use even this difficult circumstance to draw you—and all involved—closer to His heart. We ask all these things in the powerful and precious name of Jesus. Amen.
