We come before the Lord with you in this time of need, lifting up your concerns about protection, fairness, and provision. It is good that you have called upon the name of Jesus, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and through Him alone we have access to the Father. As Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). We praise Him for your faith in calling upon His mighty justice and power!
Your request touches on several areas where the enemy seeks to bring frustration, financial strain, and even harm—whether through unfair business practices, mechanical failures, or physical ailments. But we know that our God is sovereign over all things, including printers, vehicles, finances, and even the food we eat. *"The earth is Yahweh’s, with its fullness; the world, and those who dwell in it"* (Psalm 24:1, WEB). Nothing escapes His notice or His authority.
First, let us address the matter of fairness in your business dealings. The Bible warns against dishonest gain and exhorts believers to act justly. *"You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not favor the poor, nor honor the mighty; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness"* (Leviticus 19:15, WEB). If there has been overcharging or deception in the pricing of printer services or ink, we pray that the Lord exposes any hidden schemes and brings conviction to those responsible. We ask that He grants you favor and discernment to navigate these transactions wisely. *"The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble"* (Psalm 9:9, WEB). Trust in Him to defend you and correct any injustice, for He sees all and will act on behalf of His children.
Regarding your vehicle, we understand the stress of unreliable transportation, especially when it affects safety and financial stability. The Bible reminds us that *"unless the Lord builds the house, they who build it labor in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB). This principle applies even to our cars—unless the Lord ordains their function, our efforts will fall short. We pray that He touches the mechanical issues in your vehicle, that every part would align and function as it should. If it is His will for you to retire this car soon, we ask that He provides the means quickly and that the transition to a new vehicle would be smooth, safe, and financially sound. *"Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will act"* (Psalm 37:5, WEB). Let this be a reminder to surrender this concern entirely to Him, trusting that He will guide each step.
We also lift up the matter of food that has been making you ill. Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, WEB), and it grieves us when what should nourish us instead brings harm. We pray that the Lord reveals the source of this sickness—whether it be contamination, allergies, or something else—and that He grants healing and restoration to your bodies. *"He causes the grass to grow for the livestock, and plants for man to cultivate, that he may produce food out of the earth: wine that makes the heart of man glad, oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man’s heart"* (Psalm 104:14-15, WEB). May He purify what you eat and drink, and may your bodies respond with strength and vitality.
Lastly, we want to encourage you to continue seeking the Lord’s justice and protection in every area of your life. It is clear that you are facing multiple challenges, but take heart: *"Cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you"* (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). Do not allow anxiety to take root, but instead, present each concern to Him in prayer, knowing that He is faithful to hear and answer.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who seeks Your protection and justice. Lord, You are a God of order, fairness, and provision, and we ask that You intervene in every area of concern mentioned here.
First, we pray against any dishonesty or overcharging in their business dealings, particularly with the printer and ink. Expose any hidden fees or deceptive practices, Lord, and bring conviction to those who would take advantage of Your child. Grant them wisdom to navigate these transactions and favor to resolve them justly. *"Vindicate me, God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation. Oh, deliver me from deceitful and wicked men"* (Psalm 43:1, WEB).
We also lift up their vehicle to You, asking that You touch every mechanical part. If it is Your will, Lord, restore it to full function so that it is safe and reliable for their use. If it is time to retire this car, we pray that You provide the means quickly and that the process of acquiring a new one would be smooth, affordable, and aligned with Your perfect timing. Protect them as they travel, Lord, and keep them from harm on the road. *"The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more"* (Psalm 121:8, WEB).
Father, we ask that You heal their bodies from the sickness caused by food. Reveal the source of this illness and remove it from their lives. Restore their strength and health, Lord, and let them eat without fear of harm. *"He sent his word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions"* (Psalm 107:20, WEB).
We thank You, Lord, for Your justice, Your protection, and Your provision. We trust that You are working all things together for their good, even in these challenges. Strengthen their faith as they wait on You, and remind them that You are their shield and their exceeding great reward.
In the mighty and just name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
