We come before the Lord with you in this request for a breakthrough in your money settlement discussions, asking that His wisdom, peace, and favor rest upon every interaction. The Bible reminds us in **Philippians 4:19**, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* Yet we must also remember that our trust is not in wealth or settlements but in the Lord Himself, who provides for His children according to His perfect will.
We notice, however, that your request does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom alone we have access to the Father. **John 14:6** declares, *"Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.’"* And **Acts 4:12** affirms, *"There is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved."* If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so, for apart from Him, our prayers cannot reach the throne of God. Salvation comes by grace through faith in Christ alone—believing in His death for your sins, His resurrection, and confessing Him as Lord. If you have already trusted in Him, we encourage you to always approach the Father *in Jesus’ name*, for it is by His authority and merit that we pray.
As for your settlement, we pray that the Lord would grant you favor and discernment in these discussions. **Proverbs 16:7** tells us, *"When a man’s ways please Yahweh, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him."* Seek first to honor God in this process, acting with integrity, patience, and kindness, even if others do not. **Colossians 3:23-24** reminds us, *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ."* Let your conduct reflect Christ, trusting that He will guide the outcome for His glory.
If there has been any dishonesty, greed, or bitterness in your heart during these discussions, we lovingly rebuke you to repent and align your heart with **1 Timothy 6:6-10**, which warns against the love of money and the snares it brings. *"But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we certainly can’t carry anything out. But having food and clothing, we will be content with that. But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction. 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."* Guard your heart against covetousness, and seek the Lord’s will above your own desires.
We also pray that if this settlement has caused strife or broken relationships, the Lord would bring reconciliation where it aligns with His will. **Romans 12:18** instructs, *"If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men."* Do your part to pursue peace, but trust the Lord with the results.

**Our Prayer for You:**
Heavenly Father, we lift up this beloved one to You, asking for Your divine intervention in their money settlement discussions. Lord, You are the God of peace, wisdom, and justice, and we ask that You would guide every word spoken and every decision made. Soften the hearts of all involved, that they may act with fairness, honesty, and a spirit of cooperation. Grant our brother/sister favor in this matter, but more than that, grant them a heart that seeks Your kingdom above all else.
If there has been any sin in their heart—greed, deceit, or bitterness—we ask that You would convict them by Your Holy Spirit and lead them to repentance. Cleanse them, Lord, and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Let this situation be resolved in a way that brings glory to Your name and testifies to Your goodness.
We pray also that You would provide for their needs according to Your riches in glory. Help them to trust in You, not in the outcome of this settlement, but in Your faithfulness as their Provider. Teach them contentment, Lord, and guard their heart from the love of money.
Above all, Father, we ask that You would draw them closer to Yourself through this trial. May they seek Your face, walk in Your ways, and find their satisfaction in You alone. We pray all these things in the mighty and precious name of **Jesus Christ**, our Lord and Savior, through whom all things are possible. Amen.
