We come before You, Father, with hearts full of gratitude for the gift of this new day and for the forgiveness of sins through the precious blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ. We lift up this matter of the lot, seeking Your perfect will and divine guidance in every aspect. Lord, we know that every good and perfect gift comes from You, and we trust in Your provision and wisdom.
Father, we ask for clarity regarding whether to sell the lot or not. Your Word tells us in Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." We surrender this decision to You, asking that You direct the steps according to Your perfect plan.
If it is Your will for the lot to be sold, we pray that You reveal the right price that honors You and is fair to all parties involved. We ask that You bring a good and honest buyer who will be a blessing in this transaction. Lord, we know that You own the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50:10), and we trust in Your abundant provision.
We also seek Your provision for the necessary expenses related to this matter—fencing, ejectment fees, security guards, and other miscellaneous costs. Your Word assures us in Philippians 4:19, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." We stand on this promise, believing that You will provide all that is needed in Your perfect timing.
Father, we pray for the hearts of the informal settlers. Soften their hearts, Lord, and grant them understanding and peace as they transition. We ask that You protect all involved from harm and violence, and that this process would be marked by Your grace and mercy. Your Word tells us in Romans 12:18, "If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men." We pray for peace and unity in this situation.
We also lift up the matter of the portion taken by the government through road widening. Lord, we ask for Your favor and justice in collecting what is rightfully owed. Give wisdom to those handling this matter, and let Your will be done.
Finally, we pray for a smooth transaction upon selling, free from complications or delays. May every detail be ordered by Your hand, and may this process bring glory to Your name.
Lord, we rebuke any spirit of confusion, greed, or strife that may seek to disrupt this matter. We declare that this situation is covered by the blood of Jesus, and we stand on Your promises of provision, protection, and peace.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who has given us access to the throne of grace. Amen.
