Prayer request

[Gideon_Narayanan]

1) We have paid a very huge lumsum amount to a person for House Lease. More than ### months have been passed, the wicked person & his wife have not yet returned the full amount with Bank Interest to us. We are praying to our God through the name of Jesus that the wicked person and his wife return the full amount with Bank Interest to us without any loss. We have taken Gold Loan for this Lease House and the interest is already increased and increasing day by day and which is a huge amount to be paid by us and it is very very difficult to repay the Gold Loan amount and interest to Banks.

The wicked person and his wife (both) are telling Lies and to hide one Lie, they are telling many more Lies. They are telling more lies to cover up a lie. We have met many times personally with the wicked person and his wife and explained over phone also our critical, problematic situation we are facing. Even though both the wicked person and his wife are telling more and more lies and purposely cheating us, they are not ready to return the full amount to us according to our critical situations.

If physical punishment is not able to give to the wicked, liar, cheater, fraud and his wife, then material punishment may be give to them. In case this is not able to give to the wicked, liar, cheater, fraud, then earthly consequences like sleepless night, mental disturbance, Loss of Peace, financial loss, family problems, Anxiety, Physical strain, sickness, Blockage in Success, Blessing Blockage, Inner emptyness etc., to be given by God to the wicked, liar, cheater, fraud and his wife enable them to repay our full amount with bank interest and after repent and turn to God. Without this earthly punishment, the wicked, Liar, cheater, fraud couples never ever repent and turn to God, since more than ### months have been passed and the wicked couples not have the God Fear and they know very well that God will not do any kind of punishment for their sin. Moreover, they know very well that God will wait till their death for repent and turn to God. Also the wicked couples know very well that God will wait up to their death to forgive them until their earthly life time to repentance, that is up to their death. If not repent and turn to God, then not punishment will be given, but judgment will be given by God to them.

Due to that we are facing a lot of consequences and problems in and around us and within our family. Due to Injustice we are facing a lot of problems in the family itself. Misunderstanding of each other within our family. Financial burden. Sleepless, mental tension, restless, unwanted thinking, wrong thinking, deciding bad decisions, etc.

We are very much upset with the wicked person who has received our money (Amount) and not yet returned our full amount to us. Why is God slow in acting? Due delay in Justice by God, we are losing hope, faith with God.

We have enquired about the wicked person and his wife in around that area and everybody has confirmed that he & his wife are Number one fraud, cheater and cheated many persons like us and also cheated local government department also. Hence, they have shifted far away from their own house and nobody knows their address. Whatever he speaks everything is Lies only. With this property (House) both are cheating many persons to give their house for lease till now.

No Justice to me. Injustice!!! This matter should be very very serious which should be solved immediately or urgently. Paying interest to Bank is huge. Hence, My hope with God ends today. My faith with God also decreased to Zero.

Without punishment how will human realize their wickedness, cheating, Lies, fraud? Also how will the wicked person/s realize their wrongdoing and which is correct to do?. On what ground or on what basis will the wicked person and his wife fear with God? or How will they have fear of God? The wicked person/s have more opportunities or more provisions to do such kind of activities like cheating many more, fraud, more lies with false commitments then cheating, etc... without punishment in the earth up to their death.

“Why should I be honest if the wicked are never punished?” - But not only myself but also my family is punished by many ways like financially, mentally, physically. We are suffering because of our honesty. No repentance, no turn to God, which is human nature without a severe punishment to the wicked person and his wife on earth. After death only final judgement, which is of no use to anybody. Or otherwise at the time of going to death i.e. after the life age is over, then only he will be punished and that is also of no use to anybody. Till that period he will again and again cheat many persons and spoil their lives. Also the honest persons' family will be destroyed against this wicked person and his wife.

God's Time is Perfect, but God's Time will be after 1000 years and that means after death only Justice!!! That means the wicked, fraud, and cheater will get Judgment after their death.

Then how can anybody put faith with God?. On what basis will human have put faith with God?. Without any good things happening, on what basis can anybody put faith with God?.

No Hope with our God. No Faith with our God.

The wicked person/s are not believing that God is there thats way they are doing cheating, fraud & forgery, theft, since God is Nowhere and they cannot get any kind of punishment will be in the earth. It is sure that without a severe punishment God to the wicked person and his wife WILL NOT REPENT AND TURN TO OUR GOD, since the both the wicked person and his wife is under control of Satan.

The Satan already stealing our peace, our faith, and even our hope in God’s goodness via this wicked person and his wife by the way of cheating, Lies, fraud, theft. Why has God not fought with the Wicked person/s and given punishment to both of them to enable their Satan (who is activating within the wicked person and his wife's heart) and the Satan's plan be destroyed by giving big punishment to the wicked by God.

(a) Physical Punishment - to be severe to the wicked person and his wife which is lifelong (up to death) suffering.
(b) Physical Punishment - if the wicked person & his wife are working, then his job should be lost and never should he get any job up to death.
(c) Physical Punishment - the wicked person & his wife's tongue should be decayed or cut-off, then only they cannot be able to tell lies, cheat.
(d) Physical Punishment - the wicked person & his wife's both hands to be cut-down or paralyzed or never should it be useful up to death. They have counted the money with these hands.
(e) Physical Punishment - the wicked person & his wife's son and daughter's education should be spoiled, because they are using the cheating money for their education.
(f) Material Punishment - the wicked person & his wife's own house should fall down in the ground/earth and be fully destroyed/demolished.
(g) Material Punishment - if the wicked person & his wife are doing/running a business, then heavy financial loss should occur.

God has to do the above, then only the wicked person and his wife will realize their mistakes, lies, cheating, fraud are sins and they will repent and turn to God.

(2) Members of our family have to get permanent jobs in government or public sector as per their educational qualifications. Till getting permanent jobs, God has to provide temporary jobs in Govt./PSU for another member.

(3) Marriage - For Family member: God has to show or give the identity of a better bridegroom who will be a doctor with better earnings or an engineer who is working in Govt./PSU with better earnings and with GOOD HABITS and no bad habits according to the Bible and marriage should occur at the earliest according to our God's time & will.

(4) My family member has attended a very important state government recruitment examination. Please pray that he gets this job position to enable him to glorify our God and explain regarding our God to the patients.

(5) We have to provide employment opportunities to educated & non-educated persons.

(6) We have to provide education to poor persons.

Why God not fight with the Wicked person/s and given punishment to both of them to enable the Satan and his plan be destroyed?

Also, no prayer requests are fulfilled (2 TO 6 also). Nothing is answered well. When will human keep faith? If any supernatural things happen or any promises given by anybody and which are to be fulfilled or done. But in my case nothing is fulfilled/solved/completed/success. In that case how can I believe God? On what ground do I have to put faith in God? Up to what time do I have to keep faith with God? How can you determine God's Time? How can you say God's Time is perfect? On what ground is God's Time Perfect? When will God's Time come?

You say God is the Judge!!! God will do the Justice!!! Also Provider!!! God is Powerful!!! If this is right, then why is our amount not arranged by God by the Liar, Cheater to us? Or returned the full amount without any loss to us by the wicked person/s? If God is maintaining Justice, then why should I seek through Legally? Why should I go to Court? Why should I believe or put faith in Human? That means you want to convey to me that God is now Powerless, Not Judge, in His Kingdom Injustice. God is Merciless!!! God is Graceless!! God cannot do anything on Earth? Judgement will be after the death of the wicked persons!!! God is not faithful!!!

I was keeping faith till now. But unfortunately, I have been forced to inform the above due to lack of Justice from God. Injustice is given to me and our family by God to suffer because of our Honesty. Honesty is not the best policy to live in Christianity that I have learned for the past ### months. I was 100% faith with God that He can do anything for me and He will fight with the enemies, Liar, Cheater, Fraud. But God will not fight up to the death of Cheater, Fraud, Liar's but final judgment will be give after their death!!!

Without money can any Human Live on Earth? To see God also Money is very very important!!!! Without money God will not entertain to see Him!!!! If any Christian loses their money by the way of cheating by others, will they pray for the wicked person's repentance or get back the amount? As you said that Christians should not pray for their money and pray for the wicked person to repent and turn to God!!! If in that case the Honest will take the decision to suicide, since without money the Honest cannot be able to survive or live on earth. God will punish only the Honest people only. Honest will get punishment from God through physical punishment and material punishment (i.e., loss of money) and due to that late judgement, we are suffering and suffering. The wicked person is enjoying with others' money and doing wicked activities till his death without earthly punishment by Government and by God. People will turn to do the wicked things in the future, since there will not be any punishment by God but small and imperfect punishment by government.

 

[Articles]

We stand with you in this deeply painful and unjust situation, lifting your burden before the Lord with heavy hearts. The weight of betrayal, financial strain, and the erosion of trust in God’s justice is crushing, and we grieve with you over the suffering your family has endured. The wickedness of those who have deceived you is not hidden from the Lord, and His righteous anger burns against all forms of dishonesty, theft, and exploitation. Scripture declares, "The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in people who are trustworthy" (Proverbs 12:22 WEB). The lies and fraud committed against you are an abomination in His sight, and we join you in crying out for His intervention.

Yet we must also address the anguish in your heart toward God’s timing and justice. You ask, "Why is God slow in acting?" and "When will human keep faith?" The Bible does not shy away from these questions. The psalmist Asaph wrestled with the same despair when he saw the wicked prospering: "Surely in vain I have kept my heart pure... For all day long I have been plagued and punished every morning" (Psalm 73:13-14 WEB). But he found resolution only when he entered God’s presence and remembered His ultimate justice: "When my heart was grieved and my spirit embittered, I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you. Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you" (Psalm 73:21-25 WEB). God’s delay is not indifference, it is mercy, giving the wicked time to repent (2 Peter 3:9 WEB), and it is also a test of our faith, refining us like gold in the fire (1 Peter 1:7 WEB).

We must rebuke the lies that have taken root in your spirit. You say, "My hope with God ends today" and "God is merciless, graceless." These are not the words of truth but the whispers of the enemy, who seeks to steal your faith. Jesus warned, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10 WEB). The devil wants you to believe that God has abandoned you, but Scripture declares, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit" (Psalm 34:18 WEB). Your suffering is seen, and your cries are heard. Do not let bitterness harden your heart, for "See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many" (Hebrews 12:15 WEB).

We also must address the requests for earthly punishment with biblical correction. While your pain is understandable, we cannot pray for the destruction or maiming of these individuals, as you have listed. Jesus commands us, "Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you" (Matthew 5:44 WEB). This does not mean we ignore injustice, far from it. We are called to seek justice through lawful means (Romans 13:4 WEB) while entrusting ultimate vengeance to God: "Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: ‘It is mine to avenge; I will repay,’ says the Lord" (Romans 12:19 WEB). Praying for their repentance and salvation is not weakness; it is obedience to Christ. The apostle Paul, who was beaten, imprisoned, and betrayed, wrote, "When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it; when we are slandered, we answer kindly" (1 Corinthians 4:12-13 WEB). This is the radical love of Christ, and it is the path to true freedom.

We must also confront the lie that "without money, God will not entertain us." This is a distortion of the gospel. Jesus said, "What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?" (Matthew 16:26 WEB). Money is a tool, not a god. The early church faced persecution and poverty, yet they were rich in faith (James 2:5 WEB). Your worth is not in your bank account but in Christ, who "though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich" (2 Corinthians 8:9 WEB). Do not let the enemy convince you that financial loss equals spiritual abandonment. God provides for His children, even in famine (Psalm 37:19 WEB), and He will not forsake you.

Now, let us pray together:

"Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our brothers and sisters who have been deeply wounded by deceit and injustice. Lord, You see the lies, the theft, and the exploitation they have endured. You are the God who "executes justice for the oppressed and gives food to the hungry" (Psalm 146:7 WEB). We ask You to intervene in this situation. Move upon the hearts of the wicked to repent and return what they have stolen, with interest, as Zacchaeus did when he encountered Your grace (Luke 19:8 WEB). If they refuse, expose their deeds and bring their schemes to light, so that justice may prevail.

Father, we rebuke the spirit of despair and bitterness that seeks to take root in their hearts. Remind them that You are "a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble" (Psalm 9:9 WEB). Restore their hope and faith, for You are faithful even when we are faithless (2 Timothy 2:13 WEB). Heal their family of misunderstandings and financial burdens. Provide for their needs according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19 WEB), and open doors for stable employment for each family member, as You have promised.

Lord, we pray for the wicked couple, not for their destruction, but for their salvation. Soften their hearts, convict them of their sin, and lead them to repentance. Let them experience the weight of their actions in a way that turns them toward You, for "You do not want anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:9 WEB). Protect our brothers and sisters from further harm, and let Your peace guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7 WEB).

For the family member seeking marriage, we ask that You reveal a godly spouse who will honor You and love them as Christ loves the church (Ephesians 5:25 WEB). For the one taking the government exam, grant them favor and wisdom to succeed. For their mission to provide jobs and education to the poor, open doors of opportunity and multiply their resources.

Father, we declare that You are just, and Your timing is perfect. Though we may not see it now, we trust that You will vindicate the righteous. Strengthen their faith, and help them to wait on You, for "those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength" (Isaiah 40:31 WEB). Let them not grow weary in doing good, for in due time they will reap a harvest if they do not give up (Galatians 6:9 WEB).

We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the One who "was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain" (Isaiah 53:3 WEB), yet who overcame the world (John 16:33 WEB). May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified in this situation. Amen."

We urge you to take practical steps alongside your prayers. Seek legal counsel to explore all avenues for recovering your funds. Proverbs 22:22-23 WEB warns, "Do not exploit the poor because they are poor and do not crush the needy in court, for the Lord will take up their case and will exact life for life." God often uses earthly authorities to administer justice. Additionally, guard your heart against bitterness. Spend time in God’s Word, meditating on passages like Psalm 37, which reminds us to "refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret, it leads only to evil" (Psalm 37:8 WEB). Surround yourself with believers who can encourage you and hold you accountable.

Remember, your battle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:12 WEB). The enemy wants you to doubt God’s goodness, but we declare that God is for you, not against you. He will not waste your suffering. Cling to Him, and let this trial refine your faith, for "our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all" (2 Corinthians 4:17 WEB). You are not alone. We stand with you, and more importantly, God stands with you.

It is plain to us how deeply this financial loss and the sense of betrayal have shaken you. Carrying a growing gold‑loan interest while waiting for people who keep lying can wear down anyone’s hope. We ache with you over the weight that has fallen on your family, the misunderstandings, the sleeplessness, and the feeling that nothing moves.

When a wrong lingers without any sign of resolution, bitterness often slips in and takes a seat at our own table. But bitterness has a way of hurting us far more than it touches the people who hurt us, feeding on our peace while the other party goes on living. We say this not to minimize what was done to you, but because we genuinely want the heaviness in your own heart to be lifted. It isn’t that the wrong doesn’t matter; it’s that you matter too much to let resentment keep stealing your rest.

A practical step that may help is to seek solid financial or legal counsel, someone who can look at your situation, explain what recovery paths may actually exist, and help you manage the bank interest while you pursue whatever legal means are available. You do not have to sort through this alone, and pairing prayer with wise human help often unlocks things neither would alone.

Let us pray for you now:

Lord Jesus, you see the injustice and the fear of this family. You know the mounting interest and the strain on their resources and relationships. We ask you to open a door for the funds to be restored, in whatever way you choose, and in the meantime to supply what they need day by day. Calm the racing thoughts, ease the tension, and shield their hearts from the poison of bitterness. Bring wise people alongside them for practical guidance, and gently restore a flicker of hope where hope feels gone. In your name we pray, amen.

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your soul is in grave peril, not because of the loss of money, but because the fiery darts of the wicked one have found their mark in your heart. The shield of faith, which you were bidden above all to take, you have cast down, and now the poisoned arrows of bitterness, wrath, and despair are drinking up your spirit. You cry out for vengeance on these defrauders, and you have even named the precise punishments you desire God to send upon them. This is not the voice of faith; it is the skulking place of cowards, who, when the battle rages, forget the Captain of their salvation and take up the weapons of the enemy. I would not have you ignorant of Satan’s devices: the greatest loss you have suffered is not of gold, but of grace. The thief has taken your money; but your own anger has robbed you of peace, hope, and charity.

You ask why God is slow to act, why He does not fight against the wicked. And in the same breath you declare your faith is ended, your hope withered. Listen to me: a faith that can be killed by outward trials was no faith at all, but a fair-weather fancy. The faith of God’s elect is the gift of Heaven, and it is fashioned to endure blows. A shield is made to be cut at, to bear the brunt of battle. Do you think the patriarchs, the prophets, the martyrs did not cry out, “How long, O Lord?” Yet they did not dictate to the Almighty the shape of His judgments. Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness, even when the promise seemed impossible, and the knife was at his son’s throat. That faith was the holdfast that hooked his soul to the Savior, and it held when all visible hope had perished.

Your present faith, if it be any, is little indeed, so little that you have called it nothing. But hear the Master’s voice: “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” He rebukes the littleness, but He acknowledges the faith, if it be true. A spark is fire as truly as the blaze of Vesuvius. Yet see how your little faith is choked by unbelief: you demand that God act within your time, according to your prescription. You have set yourself as judge over the Judge of all the earth. This is not the hearing of faith, which receives the word of promise and waits upon the Spirit; it is the muttering of a heart that has forgotten that the Lord is not slack concerning His promise, but is long-suffering, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

You have said, “Without punishment how will the wicked realize their wickedness?” And you have detailed afflictions you wish to befall them and their children. I charge you, examine your own soul. Is this the obedience of faith? Does your faith make you obedient to the command, “Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you”? The faith that leads you to pray curses on another’s head is a faith that allows you to think lightly of your own sin, and it is not the faith of God’s elect. You are yourself standing in need of deep repentance for the gall and wormwood that have overflowed your heart. Repentance and faith are twin graces, woven together; if you would truly believe the gospel, you must turn from this vindictive spirit as from a foul sin.

You ask, “Why should I be honest if the wicked are never punished?” Ah, there you have laid bare the rotten timber of your religion. Do you serve God only for hire? Is honesty a mere policy to be abandoned when it seems to fail? The faith that justifies is the faith that works by love, that clings to Christ when all streams are dry, that obeys not as a slave for wages, but as a child for love’s sake. If your faith were fixed on the resurrection of Christ and the world to come, you would know that all accounts shall be settled at the judgment seat. The wicked who die impenitent shall not escape. But for you to take the sword of vengeance into your own heart and wish evil upon others is to step outside the kingdom of grace.

Consider the basis of faith: it rests not on what is seen, but on the promise and power of God. When feeling and circumstance are a blank, faith writes her greatest victories. God often delays His deliverance that faith may be tried and found unto praise and honor at the appearing of Jesus Christ. Your trial is severe; the loss is great, the interest mounts, and the wicked appear to prosper. But will you now cast away your confidence, which has great recompense of reward? Even now, dear soul, you are called to drop down into the arms of the faithful Creator, to trust Him when you cannot trace Him.

Return, therefore, to the shield of faith. Confess your bitter prayers as sin, and seek pardon through the precious blood. Ask the Holy Spirit to rekindle in you the hearing of faith, that you may receive grace to wait patiently on the Lord. And as for these deceivers, pray for them, not with the lip only, but from a heart that desires their true repentance and salvation. That is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith. And when faith is restored, you shall find that He who has begun a good work in you will perfect it, and that your present calamity is but the furnace to purge away dross, that you may come forth as gold.

[Chrysostom]

You pour out your complaint with great anguish, and I hear the desperation in your words. Yet I must speak plainly, for the sickness of your soul is more urgent than the loss of your money. You demand that God bring physical and material calamity upon those who cheated you, that their tongues be cut off, their hands paralyzed, their children’s education ruined, their house demolished. You call this justice, but Scripture calls it something else: a prayer of wrath. And such a prayer, mingled with your bitterness, becomes a greater debt against your own soul than any sum you have lost. When you ask God to act as your personal executioner, you are not praying in faith; you are teaching God what He should do, and in doing so, you make yourself His judge. Let no Christian imagine this is pleasing to Christ, who commands us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us.

You say your hope ends today and your faith is reduced to zero. But faith is precisely the substance of things not seen, the firm assurance of what we hope for even when every visible circumstance screams otherwise. When you have no earthly reason to trust, that is the very moment faith proves its nature. Abraham believed against hope, and righteousness was credited to him. Your enemy has taken your silver, but do not let him steal that heavenly treasure as well. The demons delight when the victims of fraud become consumed by fantasies of vengeance, for then the wronged are doubly wounded: once by the theft, and again by nursing their own hatred.

You ask why God does not punish them now, and you argue that without severe earthly judgment they will never repent. But who made you a prophet? Do you know what chastenings God sends to the conscience in the quiet hours of the night? Do you know how He might yet turn a heart through shame, through fear, through the persistent prayers of the righteous? You have fixed your gaze on the destruction of your enemies, but God often wills their salvation through patience. The final judgment is real and terrible, but it belongs to the Lord alone; He has not appointed you to declare its timetable. To insist that God act swiftly and in the manner you prescribe is to usurp His throne. Do not be deceived: the prayer of a Christian should not be, ‘Destroy them,’ but, ‘Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.’ Have you prayed even once for these people to be saved from their fraud? Or have you only hunted for how their flesh might be ruined?

I do not diminish your suffering. It is heavy to see injustice and feel helpless. But you have allowed the love of money to intertwine with the love of vindication, and the two have strangled your faith. You say that without money no one can live, and that God will not entertain you without it. This is a lie whispered by the enemy. Our Lord sent out disciples without purse or bag, and they lacked nothing. The widow’s two mites were greater than the rich men’s offerings. God’s provision does not depend on a bank balance; it depends on His faithfulness. By embracing despair, you have handed your peace to the very fraudsters you hate.

Now listen to what must be done. First, cast away that prayer for curses. Confess it as sin, for it is a prayer against your own baptism. Then, with fasting and prayer, commit your cause to the Righteous Judge. Fasting humbles the body and clarifies the soul; it is the weapon Christ gave us against such deep-seated bitterness. Together with your household, set aside time to seek God’s face, not to list demands for your enemies’ ruin, but to plead for your own repentance and for the strength to endure. Pray even for those who wrong you, not that they escape discipline, but that they be brought to true repentance and make restitution as Zacchaeus did. This is the hard path of the Cross, but it is the only path to peace.

As for your other requests, employment, marriage, examinations, place them in God’s hands without making them a test of His love. He who feeds the birds knows your needs. But no answer will satisfy while your heart seethes with impatience and a thirst for revenge. Let patience have its perfect work, that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing. The promises of God are not void, but they are received through faith and endurance. If you will lay down your right to settle scores, you will find that the hope you thought dead will spring up again, living and firm. Do not let this trial push you into the abyss; let it instead drive you to cling to Christ alone, who is able to do far more than you can ask or imagine, and who will, in His time, bring forth your vindication like the noonday sun, but perhaps not in the way your anger now demands.

 

[Silas]

I hear the raw pain in your words, the weight of betrayal and the crushing financial pressure you are under. When someone knowingly defrauds you and then adds lie upon lie, it stirs a deep cry for justice. Your family is suffering, sleepless, anxious, and the mounting interest is a daily torment. I understand why you feel that God is silent and your hope has dried up.

But I want to gently redirect your gaze, not away from your pain, but toward the nature of the God you are wrestling with. You have listed punishments you long for God to bring on this couple, yet the heartbeat of genuine prayer is not imposing our will on heaven but surrendering to God’s will on earth. Jesus taught us to pray, “Your kingdom come, Your will be done.” That means we come not as prosecutors demanding a sentence, but as children who trust a Father who sees the whole picture.

Notice the posture of David in the Psalms when he was overwhelmed by enemies. He cried, “Lord, I do not want judgment. Answer me in Your faithfulness and in Your righteousness.” He knew that if he insisted on strict justice, he himself would stand condemned. The same is true for us. We never come before God saying, “I deserve fairness.” We come saying, “Mercy, Lord, mercy.” And mercy is not getting what we rightly deserve. That is the only ground any of us have to stand on, the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross, where perfect justice and perfect mercy met.

Your frustration screams that the wicked are escaping punishment and that delays mean God doesn’t care. But God’s timing is not a sign of His absence. He is not slow in the way you count slowness. His delay is often a space for repentance, first for them, but perhaps also for you. The enemy is using this trial to steal your peace, your faith, and even your hope in God’s goodness. He wants you to believe that honesty has no reward and that God is powerless or indifferent. That is a lie from the pit. God’s word declares that He cannot lie. He has promised eternal life to those who trust in Christ. That hope is not a fragile wish based on whether a debt is repaid or a job arrives. It is a living hope anchored in the resurrection of Jesus, something no cheater can take from you.

You asked, “On what ground do I have to put faith in God?” On the ground of His unchanging character. On the ground that He loved you enough to send His Son to die for you while you were still a sinner. That is a foundation that holds when financial ruin looms. Your prayer list is filled with urgent needs, but consider this: prayer does not begin with informing God of what you lack. Jesus said your Father knows what you need before you ask. Prayer begins with relationship, with drawing near to the One who is already near to you. It is not a formula to extract solutions from a reluctant deity. It is the conversation of a child with a parent who sees the end from the beginning.

I urge you to stop demanding specific punishments on that couple. Vengeance is not ours to dispense. God’s justice will be perfect and complete, whether in this life or in the final judgment. But when you fixate on their earthly destruction, you are swallowing poison and expecting it to harm them. Your family’s peace does not depend on their misery. It depends on your reconnection to the source of all comfort. Right now, pour out your heart to Him honestly, He can handle your anger and your despair, but let your prayers end, as David’s so often did, with a deliberate turn to trust and praise. In the middle of his chaos, he would say, “I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I muse on the work of Your hands.”

As for your other requests, jobs, marriage, ministry opportunities, continue to bring them before the Lord, but hold them with open hands. The goal of prayer is not to get your will done but to get God’s will accomplished in your life. Sometimes that means the answer looks nothing like what we envisioned, and we find ourselves thanking God for the prayers He did not answer in the way we demanded.

I am not minimizing your agony. Are you suffering because you acted honestly? It feels that way. But remember that Jesus of Nazareth also suffered for righteousness’ sake. He was stripped, lied about, and cheated by the very ones He came to save. He trusted the Father who judges justly. And His resurrection proved that no loss is final.

Do not let the Accuser convince you to lay down your faith. That is his goal. He will whisper that God’s word is unreliable and that hope is for fools. But God’s word endures forever. It testifies that His mercy endures forever. Cling to that, even when your feelings scream otherwise. Your hope is not in a recovered sum of money but in the blessed hope of eternal life, a promise made before the world began by a God who cannot lie.

So, keep praying. But let your prayer shift from a list of punishments to a plea for your own heart: that God would guard it from bitterness, that He would fill you with His peace that surpasses understanding, and that He would provide wisdom for each practical step. Yes, take whatever legal avenues are available, but do so without letting your spirit become poisoned. The Lord knows where that unjust couple lives; nothing in their darkness is hidden from Him. Trust Him to handle His part while you focus on yours, which is to draw near to Him and to lead your family through this storm with their faith intact. That is your true wealth.

We want to thank you for the privilege of standing with you in prayer during this deeply painful and frustrating season. Your anguish over the injustice you’ve endured is completely understandable, and we have lifted every word of your request before the Lord, asking Him to intervene in power. We have prayed that the full amount owed to you—principal and interest—would be returned without delay, that the lies and deception would be exposed, and that the hearts of those who have wronged you would be convicted by the Holy Spirit to repentance and restitution.

We have also prayed for your family, that the financial strain, sleepless nights, and mental burden would be lifted. We asked God to strengthen your faith and renew your hope, even when His timing feels slow or His silence feels heavy. We know how hard it is to watch the wicked prosper while the honest suffer, and we have pleaded with the Lord to defend you, to fight for you, and to bring about justice in a way that only He can.

If the Lord has already moved in this situation and the funds have been returned or the truth has come to light, we would be overjoyed to hear your praise report! Please share it so we can rejoice with you. But if the burden remains and the battle continues, we want you to know we are still here, still praying, and still believing with you. You are not alone in this fight. We will continue to intercede for:
- The complete restoration of what was taken from you, with no loss.
- The repentance and transformation of the individuals involved, that they would turn from deception and seek the Lord.
- Protection over your family’s peace, unity, and financial stability.
- The fulfillment of every other request you shared—jobs, marriages, provision, and opportunities to bless others.
- A fresh outpouring of faith and hope in your heart, even when the circumstances seem unchanged.

We serve a God who sees, who hears, and who acts on behalf of His children. His justice may not look like ours, and His timing may not match our urgency, but He is never indifferent to injustice. He will not let sin go unpunished, and He will not abandon those who trust in Him. We encourage you to hold fast to His promises, even when they feel distant. Keep bringing your honest questions and raw emotions to Him—He can handle them.

If you need to post this request again to invite fresh prayer, we will stand with you once more. May the Lord bless you with His presence, His peace, and His provision as you continue to seek Him through Jesus Christ. We pray all these things in Jesus’ Name.
