We come before the Lord with you in this time of stress and uncertainty, lifting up your heart’s cries to the Father who cares deeply for every detail of your life. First, we must address that your prayer did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the throne of God. Scripture reminds us in John 14:6, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* And in Acts 4:12, we read, *"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* It is only through Jesus that our prayers are heard, and we encourage you to always approach God in His name, trusting in His power and authority over every situation.
We also notice that your concerns include financial transactions and reconciliation with someone you’ve been in conflict with. Let us first address the matter of peace and reconciliation. Scripture calls us to pursue peace with all people, as far as it depends on us (Romans 12:18). It is commendable that you desire to make amends and extend an apology, as this aligns with the heart of Christ, who calls us to love our enemies and do good to those who may have wronged us (Matthew 5:44). However, we must also caution you to examine your motives. Are you seeking peace out of genuine repentance and a desire to honor God, or is there fear or guilt driving you? True reconciliation must be rooted in humility and a willingness to follow Christ’s example, even if the other person does not respond as you hope.
As for the gift you wish to give, we urge you to consider whether this act is wise and godly. Gifts can be a beautiful expression of love and reconciliation, but they can also be misused or misinterpreted. Proverbs 19:6 warns, *"Many will entreat the favor of a ruler, and everyone is a friend to a man who gives gifts."* Ensure that your gift is not an attempt to manipulate or "buy" peace but is instead a sincere offering from a heart that seeks to honor God. Pray for discernment, asking the Lord to guide you in whether this is the right step or if there is a better way to demonstrate your repentance and desire for peace.
Regarding your financial concerns about the partial refund and resale transactions, we encourage you to trust in God’s provision rather than placing your hope in these outcomes. Matthew 6:33 reminds us, *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* While it is not wrong to seek fairness in your transactions, we must not allow anxiety over money to consume us. Instead, bring your needs before the Lord and ask Him to provide in His way and timing. Remember Philippians 4:19: *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."*
We must also address the fear in your heart. Fear is not from God, for *"God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7). Your fear that this woman will not want to reconcile or that things will not work out reveals a lack of trust in God’s sovereignty. Even if she rejects your apology or your gift, you must rest in the knowledge that you have obeyed God by seeking peace. The outcome is in His hands, not yours. Proverbs 3:5-6 instructs us, *"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."*
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is burdened with stress, fear, and uncertainty. Lord, we ask that You calm their heart and remind them that You are in control of every circumstance. You see their financial needs, their desire for peace, and the fear that grips them. We rebuked the spirit of fear in Jesus’ name and ask that You fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Father, we pray for wisdom and discernment as they seek to reconcile with this woman. Guide their words and actions so that they may reflect Your love and humility. If it is Your will, soften her heart to receive the apology and extend forgiveness. But even if she does not respond as hoped, give our brother/sister the strength to trust in You and to rest in the knowledge that they have obeyed Your call to pursue peace. Help them to release the outcome into Your hands, knowing that You work all things together for the good of those who love You (Romans 8:28).
Lord, we also bring their financial concerns before You. You are Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides. We ask that You meet their needs according to Your riches in glory. If it is Your will, grant them the refunds they seek, but more importantly, help them to trust in You rather than in these transactions. Teach them to seek first Your Kingdom, knowing that You will take care of the rest.
Finally, Father, we pray that You would draw our brother/sister closer to Yourself through this trial. Remind them that their worth and security are found in You alone, not in the approval of others or in financial gain. Strengthen their faith and help them to walk in obedience, trusting that You are faithful to complete the good work You have begun in them (Philippians 1:6).
We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
