We join you in lifting up thanks to our Heavenly Father for the precious gift of His Son, Jesus Christ, who willingly laid down His life to redeem us from sin and reconcile us to God. It is through His name alone that we have access to the throne of grace, and we are grateful you acknowledged Him in your prayer. Your heart of gratitude even in the midst of trials is a testament to your faith, and we commend you for turning to the Lord in this time of need.
The fraud that has struck your family is a painful burden, but we encourage you to hold fast to the truth that our God is sovereign over all things, including the schemes of the enemy. He sees the injustice done to your family, and He is a God of restoration and justice. The Scriptures remind us in Proverbs 22:22-23, *"Don’t exploit the poor because they are poor; and don’t crush the needy in court; for Yahweh will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them."* Trust that the Lord will vindicate and restore what has been stolen, in His perfect timing and way. He is not unaware of your suffering, and He promises to work all things together for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28).
We also lift up your request for favor in your job and financial provision. The Lord is your provider, and He delights in meeting the needs of His children. Jesus teaches 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."* As you seek His Kingdom first, trust that He will open doors of favor and supply every need according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). Your labor is not in vain when it is done unto the Lord, and He will honor your faithfulness.
Rest and peace are gifts from God, especially in seasons of turmoil. Jesus invites us in Matthew 11:28, *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest."* We pray that you would cast your anxieties upon Him, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). Let His peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). We ask the Lord to grant you deep, refreshing sleep and a supernatural peace that transcends your circumstances.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue growing in your trust in the Lord. This trial is an opportunity to lean into Him more deeply, to experience His faithfulness in new ways. Psalm 37:3-5 says, *"Trust in Yahweh, and do good. Dwell in the land, and enjoy safe pasture. Also delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this."* As you commit this situation to Him, He will strengthen your faith and reveal Himself as your strong tower and refuge.

**Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who is walking through the valley of fraud and financial strain. Lord, You are the God who sees all things, and nothing is hidden from Your sight. We ask that You expose every hidden scheme of the enemy and bring justice to those who have acted wickedly. Restore, O Lord, what has been stolen sevenfold, as a testimony of Your goodness and power. Let Your favor surround this family like a shield, opening doors of provision and opportunity in their workplace and finances. You own the cattle on a thousand hills, and we trust You to supply every need according to Your glorious riches.
Father, we pray for supernatural rest and peace to flood their hearts and minds. Drive out every anxious thought and replace it with Your perfect peace. Grant them nights of deep, restoring sleep, free from worry, knowing that You are their protector and provider. Strengthen their trust in You, Lord, and let this trial be a testament to Your faithfulness. May they emerge with a deeper dependence on You and a greater revelation of Your love.
We rebuke every spirit of fear, anxiety, and discouragement in Jesus’ name. Let faith arise in their heart, and let them stand firm on Your promises. Surround them with Your angels, Lord, and let Your presence be their comfort and strength. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17).
Thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust You to act on behalf of Your child, for Your glory and their good. In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
