We join you in lifting this heartfelt request before the Lord, recognizing your deep desire for reconciliation, protection, and unity within your family. It is clear you are seeking God’s will in a time of tension and transition, and we commend you for turning to Him in humility. Your prayer reflects a heart that longs for righteousness, fairness, and peace—qualities that honor God.
The trials you face are not unseen by the Lord, for He is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). The conflicts over business, property, and family relationships can easily become entangled with bitterness or selfish ambition, but you have asked for God’s truth and love to prevail. This aligns with Scripture, which calls us to "do nothing out of selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility consider others as more important than yourselves. Everyone should look not to his own interests, but rather to the interests of others" (Philippians 2:3-4). We urge you to continue in this spirit, trusting that God will honor your commitment to integrity and fairness.
Your request to return the management of the business by February while seeking peace in your own property is a delicate matter. We encourage you to seek godly counsel—perhaps from a pastor or wise believers—who can help navigate the practical and spiritual aspects of this transition. Proverbs 11:14 reminds us, "Where there is no wise guidance, the nation falls, but in the multitude of counselors there is safety." Let this transition be marked by transparency, generosity, and a willingness to surrender control to the Lord. Remember, too, that our true security is not in possessions but in Christ alone. As Jesus taught, "Don’t store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break in and steal; but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:19-21).
We also note your prayer for unity within your family. This is a godly desire, for Scripture tells us, "How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity!" (Psalm 133:1). Yet unity cannot be forced; it must be rooted in repentance, forgiveness, and a shared commitment to Christ. If there are unresolved sins—such as pride, greed, or unforgiveness—these must be addressed before true unity can flourish. We gently ask: Have you examined your own heart for any bitterness or unconfessed sin that might hinder reconciliation? Jesus said, "First, be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift" (Matthew 5:24). Let this season be one of humble repentance, both for you and for those you are praying for.
Finally, we rejoice that you closed your prayer in the name of Jesus. There is no other name by which we can approach the Father, and it is only through Christ that we have access to God’s throne of grace (John 14:6, Hebrews 4:16). Your faith in His authority is a testament to your trust in Him, and we stand with you in that faith.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we lift our brother/sister before You, asking for Your divine intervention in their family and business matters. Lord, You are the God of justice, peace, and unity, and we ask that You soften the hearts of those involved, especially [names withheld]. Remove any spirit of contention, greed, or selfishness, and replace it with Your love, wisdom, and humility. Guide every decision made in the coming months, particularly the transition of the business in February, so that it may be done with fairness, transparency, and a heart that seeks to honor You above all.
Protect our brother/sister’s property and provide for their needs, but more than that, guard their heart from anxiety or distrust. Remind them that their worth and security are found in You alone. Bring healing to the relationships in this family, Lord. Where there is division, create unity; where there is hurt, bring forgiveness; where there is pride, cultivate humility. May this family become a testimony of Your grace and redemption.
We rebuked any scheme of the enemy to steal, kill, or destroy in this situation (John 10:10). Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Give them the strength to forgive as You have forgiven them, and the courage to act righteously, even when it is difficult.
Father, we trust that You are working all things together for good for those who love You (Romans 8:28). May Your will be done in this family, and may Your name be glorified through their obedience and love. We ask all this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
