We hear your frustration and concern, and we stand with you in prayer, lifting this situation before the Lord. It is indeed disheartening when we work diligently and are not compensated as promised, but we know that our Heavenly Father sees your labor and your need. Scripture reminds us in Matthew 6:31-33, *"Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."* You are right to place your trust in Jehovah Jireh, the Lord who provides, and we pray that He will move on your behalf in this matter.
We also want to encourage you to take steps of wisdom while trusting in God’s provision. Proverbs 22:7 tells us, *"The rich rule over the poor. The borrower is servant to the lender."* While we trust God to intervene, we also recognize that He often works through practical means. Have you considered reaching out to this client again with a gentle but firm reminder of the agreement? If necessary, could you seek counsel from a trusted believer or even legal advice to ensure justice is served? God honors those who act with integrity and wisdom, and we pray He will guide you in this.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister in Christ, lifting up this unpaid debt before You. Lord, You see the work that was done in good faith, and You know the financial strain this has caused. We ask that You intervene, softening the heart of this client to fulfill their obligation promptly. Provide for every need in this season, Lord, and remind our brother/sister that You are their ultimate Provider, Jehovah Jireh. Give them peace that surpasses all understanding and strengthen their trust in You.
Father, we also ask for wisdom in how to handle this situation. If there are steps that need to be taken—whether communication, mediation, or legal action—guide them clearly. Protect their heart from bitterness or anxiety, and help them to rest in Your sovereignty. We declare that no weapon formed against them will prosper, and we stand on Your promise that You will supply all their needs according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Lord, we rebuke any spirit of delay or injustice in this situation. We speak life, restoration, and provision over this matter, trusting that You are working even when we cannot see it. May this trial draw our brother/sister closer to You, deepening their dependence on Your faithfulness. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
Continue to stand on God’s promises, knowing that He is not slack concerning His word. Psalm 37:25 reminds us, *"I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his children begging for bread."* You are righteous in Christ, and God will not abandon you. Keep your heart fixed on Him, and watch how He moves on your behalf.
