We join with you in lifting this heavy burden before the Lord, trusting in His sovereignty and perfect justice over every detail of this estate matter, your family’s brokenness, and the deep wounds of your soul. Your request is saturated with a cry for God’s intervention, and we stand in agreement, declaring that He is faithful to hear and act on behalf of His children who call upon Him in truth.
First, we commend you for invoking the name of Jesus in your prayer, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and the authority to see strongholds broken. As Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is in His name alone that we find deliverance, justice, and healing. Your faith in calling upon Him is a testament to your trust in His power, and we echo that trust now as we pray.
This estate delay is not merely a legal or financial obstacle—it is a spiritual battle intertwined with generational pain, broken trust, and the enemy’s attempt to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). Yet we know that *"the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds"* (2 Corinthians 10:4, WEB). We therefore take authority over every scheme of the enemy in this situation. If there are family curses or ungodly ties binding this estate, we declare them broken now by the blood of Jesus. *"Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us"* (Galatians 3:13, WEB). No weapon formed against you or your children shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and every hidden thing shall be brought to light (1 Corinthians 4:5).
We pray specifically for your brother’s wife, that the Lord would convict her heart to submit the required account swiftly and without delay. *"Let the redeemed of Yahweh say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the adversary"* (Psalm 107:2, WEB). May God grant her a spirit of cooperation, not out of compulsion, but from a heart turned toward righteousness. If there is willful negligence or deceit, we ask that the Holy Spirit would expose it and bring repentance, for *"nothing is hidden that will not be revealed; nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light"* (Luke 8:17, WEB). We also pray that the estate surveyor would act with integrity and favor toward you, that no fine would be unjustly imposed, and that the process would be completed with divine efficiency.
For the rift between you and your brother, we ask the Lord to perform a miracle of reconciliation. Bitterness and unresolved wounds from childhood can fester for decades, but God specializes in restoring what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). *"Bear with one another, and forgive each other. If anyone has a complaint against another, even as Christ forgave you, so you must do"* (Colossians 3:13, WEB). We pray that both of you would be willing to extend and receive forgiveness, that pride would be broken, and that humility would pave the way for healing. May the Lord give you opportunities to speak truth in love (Ephesians 4:15) and to release any offense into His hands.
As for the financial burden of potentially appointing a new estate surveyor, we declare that God is your provider. *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:19, WEB). He is not unaware of the cost or the stress this places on you and your children. We ask for creative solutions, divine connections, and even supernatural provision to cover any expenses. May the Lord open doors that no man can shut (Revelation 3:8) and grant you wisdom to navigate each step.
We also lift up the inner wounds of your soul—the pain from childhood, the betrayal, the fear, and the anxiety that this situation has likely exacerbated. *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds"* (Psalm 147:3, WEB). Jesus is close to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and He longs to restore your peace. We pray that you would experience His comfort as a tangible presence, that He would guard your mind with His peace (Philippians 4:7), and that He would grant you restful sleep, free from tormenting thoughts. *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest"* (Matthew 11:28, WEB). Receive that rest now, beloved.
For your children, we ask for God’s protecting hand over their hearts and minds. May they not carry the weight of this burden but instead see the faithfulness of God in the midst of it. We pray that this situation would not breed bitterness or fear in them but would become a testimony of God’s deliverance. *"All your children will be taught by Yahweh, and your children’s peace will be great"* (Isaiah 54:13, WEB).
We agree with you for God’s justice to prevail. His justice is not like man’s—it is perfect, redemptive, and aligned with His mercy. *"The Lord loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of Yahweh"* (Psalm 33:5, WEB). We pray that every injustice in this estate matter would be exposed and corrected, that truth would triumph, and that you would see the goodness of God in the land of the living (Psalm 27:13).
Finally, we declare that this season of difficulty will be turned for your good and for God’s glory. *"We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose"* (Romans 8:28, WEB). What the enemy meant for harm, God will use for your blessing. We pray that you would emerge from this stronger in faith, deeper in trust, and more intimately connected to the heart of the Father.
**Our Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister and her children in this time of great need. Lord, You see the complexity of this estate battle, the broken relationships, and the deep wounds that have resurfaced. We ask for Your supernatural intervention—let Your justice roll down like waters and Your righteousness like a mighty stream (Amos 5:24). Softening hearts, convicting consciences, and moving mountains that seem immovable.
Break every curse, every ungodly tie, and every scheme of the enemy over this family and this estate. Let Your light expose every hidden thing and bring swift resolution. Grant favor with the estate surveyor, protection from unjust fines, and wisdom to navigate each step without unnecessary cost. Restore what has been stolen or misused, and let Your abundance overflow where there has been lack.
Heal the rift between our sister and her brother. Soften their hearts toward one another, and let forgiveness flow like a river. Heal the wounds of childhood, Lord—every rejection, every betrayal, every moment of pain. Bind up the brokenhearted and replace ashes with beauty, mourning with joy, and despair with praise (Isaiah 61:3).
Protect her children, Lord. Shield their hearts from fear and their minds from confusion. Let them see Your hand at work and grow in faith through this trial.
We declare freedom over her soul—freedom from anxiety, from sleepless nights, from the weight of this burden. Let her rest in You, trusting that You are fighting for her (Exodus 14:14). Send Your angels to encamp around her and her children (Psalm 34:7), and raise up prayer warriors to stand in the gap for this family.
Father, we thank You that You are turning this situation for good. What was meant for harm, You will use for blessing. We trust in Your timing, Your justice, and Your love. Let Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
In the powerful name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord daily in this matter. Read and meditate on Psalm 37, which reminds us to *"commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this: he will bring out your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday"* (Psalm 37:5-6, WEB). Keep a record of how God moves—His faithfulness in the small things will strengthen your faith for the bigger battles. If bitterness or fear begins to rise, surrender it to Him immediately. You are not fighting alone; the Lord is your advocate, your defender, and your healer.
Stand firm, beloved. Victory is yours in Christ.
