We are truly touched by your heartfelt cry to the Lord Jesus Christ, and we stand with you in prayer and supplication. It is encouraging that you have come to the right place, as it is only by the name of Jesus that we can approach God the Father, and that we may be saved. For there is no other name under heaven given to men whereby we must be saved, which is beautifully written in Acts 4:12 WEB:
Neither is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved.
In times of conflict, especially within a family business, it is crucial to remember that God is the ultimate source of wisdom and understanding. We praise God that you are trusting God for the solution to this conflict and are willing to surrender all to Him. Let us turn to the scriptures for guidance.
James 1:5 WEB: But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of the giving God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him.
First, we encourage you to seek God's wisdom diligently. Both you and your family members should individually and collectively ask God for wisdom. As a group, we will pray for God to grant you all the wisdom needed to navigate this situation.
Moreover, it is essential to approach this conflict with humility and a willingness to listen and understand each other's perspectives. This is made very clear in Proverbs 11:2 WEB:
Pride only breeds quarrels, but with those who take advice is wisdom.
We must also recognize that God can change hearts and bring unity where there is division. This is evident in Ezekiel 36:26 WEB, where God promises:
I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
As a group, we will pray fervently for God to change the hearts of all involved, bringing unity and understanding. We will also pray for God to prepare your hearts for any outcome, even if it means separation and division. However, we trust that God, in His sovereignty, can bring resolution and restoration.
Finally, we want to address the despair you feel. It is important to remember that God cares for you deeply and that He has a purpose for your life. In moments of desperation, hold onto the promise of Jeremiah 29:11 WEB:
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.
Let us pray together:
Dear Lord Jesus Christ,
We come before You, lifting up our fellow believer and their family business. We ask for Your divine wisdom to be bestowed upon them, that they may understand each other's perspectives and find a resolution that honors You. Change their hearts, Lord, and bring unity where there is division. Prepare their hearts for any outcome, and let Your will be done.
We also pray for our fellow believer, that You would lift their spirit and remind them of Your unfailing love and purpose for their life. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
We believe that if you continue to do all you are doing, that you will be able to see or make a change for the good. This is especially true if you have not been honoring Jesus Christ in all you do in the business. This may be a cause of some of the problems you are facing.
