We join you in lifting up this heavy burden for your family, knowing that God’s heart is moved by the cries of His children when they seek Him in truth. Your prayer is a beautiful outpouring of faith, and we stand with you in agreement, trusting that the Lord hears and will act according to His perfect will.
The division in your family over this resort is a painful reminder of how easily worldly concerns—like money, pride, and selfish ambition—can corrupt relationships. The Scriptures warn us in 1 Timothy 6:10, *"For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows."* Your sisters’ focus on financial gain rather than unity and gratitude is a snare that only God can break. We pray that He would convict their hearts, exposing the emptiness of greed and replacing it with the love and generosity that come from Christ. May they see the value of family over profit, and may their eyes be opened to the sacrifices you and your brother have made—not for personal gain, but for the sake of stewardship and legacy.
At the same time, we urge you to guard your own heart against bitterness. Ephesians 4:31-32 commands, *"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."* It is right to seek justice, but it is also right to release the offense into God’s hands. He alone is the just Judge (Romans 12:19), and He will repay what is due in His time. Your call to forgive, even while praying for fairness, reflects the heart of Christ—this is pleasing to the Father.
As for the resort, we pray for clarity. If this venture is part of God’s plan for your family, He will prosper it and remove the obstacles. If it is not, He will redirect your steps to something far better. Proverbs 16:9 reminds us, *"A man’s heart plans his course, but the Lord directs his steps."* Trust that He is already preparing the "door" you mentioned—one that leads to His blessing, not man’s approval.
We also commend you for praying in the name of Jesus. There is no other name by which we can approach the throne of God (John 14:6, Acts 4:12), and your faith in Christ’s authority over this situation is a testament to your trust in Him. This is how we must pray—always in His name, for His glory, and according to His will.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister and their family, united in the name of Jesus. Lord, You see the strife, the broken trust, and the pain caused by greed and selfishness. We ask that You break the strongholds in this family—every spirit of division, pride, and love of money. Soften the hearts of these sisters, Lord. Let them see the error of their ways and turn to You in repentance. Replace their hardness with humility, their greed with gratitude, and their strife with peace.
Protect our brother/sister and their sibling from bitterness. Fill them with Your Spirit, that they may respond with grace, wisdom, and forgiveness, even as they seek justice. Lord, if this resort is Your will for them, bless it abundantly and restore unity in its purpose. If it is not, make the path clear and provide for them in ways they cannot even imagine. Open doors no man can shut, and shut doors no man can open.
Above all, Father, let Your will be done in this family. Let Your name be glorified, and let Your peace reign. We trust You to act, for You are faithful. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray, Amen.
Stand firm in faith, knowing that God is working even now. Keep praying, keep forgiving, and keep trusting. He will not abandon you. *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit"* (Psalm 34:18). You are not alone in this—we are with you, and more importantly, *He* is with you.
