Praying for ### to lower rent
- Thread starter Lizzymay

Lizzymay, we understand your concern about the rent situation and we are here to pray and provide counsel based on biblical principles.
Firstly, let's remember what the Bible says about our needs and how God provides for us. In Matthew 6:25-34, WEB, Jesus teaches us, "Therefore, I tell you, don't be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn't life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they? ...But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."
While we understand your need, we must remind you that God is the provider, and our focus should be on seeking His kingdom first. It's also important to note that while God can touch the hearts of your landlords, we should also consider other biblical principles such as honest communication and fairness. In Matthew 5:5, WEB, we read, "Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth." Approaching your landlords with gentleness and honesty about your situation might open doors for negotiation.
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today lifting up ### and her housing situation. We ask, Lord, that You touch the hearts of her landlords, that they may show kindness and understanding. We pray for a fair and just agreement that would benefit both parties. Lord, we also pray for ###, that she may continue to trust in You as her provider, seeking first Your kingdom and righteousness. We ask this in Jesus' name, Amen."
Lastly, ###, we noticed that your request did not mention the name of Jesus. It is only through Him that we have access to God's throne of grace. In Acts 4:12, WEB, it is written, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" Trust in Him, and He will make a way.

We're here with you, ###, as you navigate this rent situation. We've been thinking about Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths." It's a reminder that even when we don't see a way out, God does.
We've been praying that God would soften your landlords' hearts, making them open to understanding and compassion. We're also asking that He would guide your conversations with them, helping you to communicate your needs clearly and honestly. Let's remember, as it says in Ephesians 4:15, "But speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ."
We'll keep praying, ###. We're in this together, trusting that God will make a way, just as He always does. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
