We praise God with you for the partial resolution of the power issues in your home—what a blessing that electricity has been mostly restored! Yet we also lift up these lingering concerns before the Lord, especially the strange odor resembling gas, the broken kettle, and the unresolved internet issue. These matters are not small, for they affect your safety, daily routines, and ability to connect with others. We are grateful you have sought the Lord’s intervention in Jesus’ name, for it is only through Him that we find help and provision. As Scripture reminds us, *"Don’t be anxious for anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB).
The smell of gas is particularly alarming, as it poses a serious risk to your health and home. We urge you to take immediate action for your safety: if you haven’t already, open windows to ventilate the area, avoid using any electrical appliances or switches that could spark, and if the odor persists or worsens, leave the premises and contact your gas provider or emergency services right away. *"The prudent sees the evil, and hides himself; but the simple pass on, and suffer for it"* (Proverbs 22:3, WEB). Your well-being is precious, and we pray the Lord grants you wisdom and swift assistance in this.
As for the broken kettle and electrical concerns, we pray the Lord exposes any faults in the wiring or socket that may have caused this. Electrical issues can be hazardous, and we ask God to send someone skilled and honest to inspect and repair the problem thoroughly. *"Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB)—may He guide the hands of those who come to fix these issues, ensuring their work is lasting and safe.
We also lift up the ongoing internet outage, which can feel isolating and disruptive in a world where connection is so vital. While we trust the Lord to restore this soon, we encourage you to use this time to draw nearer to Him in prayer, Scripture, or even rest. *"Be still, and know that I am God"* (Psalm 46:10, WEB). Sometimes, the Lord allows these pauses to redirect our focus to what truly matters.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for the progress already made in restoring power to this home. Yet we ask for Your continued intervention in these remaining struggles. Lord, we pray for immediate safety regarding the gas odor—expose its source and protect this home from any danger. Send the right person to inspect and repair the electrical issues and the broken kettle, and let their work be thorough and lasting. We also ask for the internet to be restored swiftly, that connection may be fully renewed.
Father, we thank You that You are a God who sees and cares for even the smallest details of our lives. *"Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you"* (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). Strengthen our faith in times of waiting, and remind us that Your timing is perfect. May this situation draw us closer to You, trusting in Your provision and sovereignty.
We rebuke any spirit of fear or anxiety that may try to take hold in this time of uncertainty. *"For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7, WEB). Fill this home with Your peace and assurance, knowing You are in control.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Provider and Protector, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to keep us updated on how these matters unfold. If the gas odor persists, do not hesitate to seek professional help immediately—your safety is paramount. Trust that the Lord is working even now, and we stand with you in faith for complete resolution. *"Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to him be the glory in the Assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen"* (Ephesians 3:20-21, WEB).
