The former landlord’s Christian sister

[Kensem]

Please pray for the former landlord's sister, who has faith in Jesus. Pray that God continues to speak through her, and that her positive influence will change the former landlord. Pray that she is not kept in the dark about the life-threatening apartment that her brother rented to me, and about the evil, immoral woman who had a sexual relationship with the former landlord and most likely hired people to try to kill me.

Please also pray that they both put God first and that our Mighty and Powerful God exposes and destroys every idol

 

[Articles]

We join you in lifting up this situation before our Mighty and Powerful God, and we thank Him that the former landlord's sister has faith in Jesus. We pray that the Lord will continue to strengthen her and use her as a vessel of truth and light in her brother's life.

We are encouraged that you recognize the power of a godly influence. As iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend, Proverbs 27:17, and we pray that her walk with Christ will be a light that cannot be hidden, Matthew 5:16. We ask that God gives her wisdom, boldness, and discernment to speak the truth in love, Ephesians 4:15, and that her brother's heart would be softened to hear it.

We also bring before the Lord the serious matters you have shared. You mentioned a life threatening apartment that was rented to you and an evil and immoral sexual relationship between the former landlord and a woman. We must address this biblically, for any sexual relationship outside of marriage between a man and a woman is fornication or adultery, and it is sin before God. The body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body, 1 Corinthians 6:13. Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the bed undefiled, but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers, Hebrews 13:4. We pray that both the former landlord and this woman would be convicted of this sin, repent, and turn from it to pursue purity and holiness. We also hear your concern that people were hired to try to kill you. To take or attempt to take a life violates God's command, You shall not murder, Exodus 20:13, and we pray for your protection and for justice. We pray that God would expose every hidden deed of darkness, for there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light, Luke 8:17. We pray with you that this sister in Christ would not be kept in the dark, but that the truth about the dangerous apartment and about this immoral relationship and any evil plot would be made known. Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them, Ephesians 5:11. For whatever is hidden will be revealed, Luke 12:2.

You also asked that they both put God first and that God would expose and destroy every idol. This is a righteous prayer. We are commanded, You shall have no other gods before me, Exodus 20:3, and Little children, keep yourselves from idols, 1 John 5:21. An idol is anything we put before God, whether it be money, power, sexual immorality, reputation, or control. We pray that God would tear down every idol in their hearts and in all our hearts, and give them a new heart and put a new spirit within them, Ezekiel 36:26. We pray they will seek first God's Kingdom and his righteousness, Matthew 6:33, and love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind, Matthew 22:37.

We pray for you as well, that God will be your refuge and protector. He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty, Psalm 91:1. We ask the Lord to surround you with His angels, to give you peace that surpasses all understanding, Philippians 4:7, and to guide you to take lawful and wise steps for your safety and for justice, while trusting vengeance to Him, for it is written, Vengeance belongs to me, I will repay, says the Lord, Romans 12:19.

We now pray together.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 1 Timothy 2:5, and in no other name can we be saved or have access to Your throne, Acts 4:12, John 14:6. Lord, we lift up the sister who knows You, strengthen her faith, let Your Word dwell richly in her, and let her speak Your truth with grace and courage to her brother. Remove any veil of deception and let no darkness remain hidden, expose every lie, every dangerous and unjust act concerning this apartment, and every immoral and murderous scheme. Bring it into the light so that truth and justice may prevail and so that repentance may come. Lord, we pray for the former landlord and for this woman, have mercy on them, convict them of fornication and of all sin, draw them to repentance and to put You first above every idol, cleanse them by the blood of Jesus. Destroy every idol that exalts itself against the knowledge of You. Protect our dear one who has been threatened, hide them under Your wings, provide safe shelter, wise counsel, and justice according to Your will. Let Your perfect will be done and let Your name be glorified in this entire situation. We ask all this in the powerful and saving name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

We've been holding your request before the Lord. It sounds like you've carried a lot of fear and uncertainty around that apartment and the people involved, and we are grateful you reached out for prayer.

We are praying with you for the landlord's sister, that the Lord would continue to give her wisdom and courage as she follows Jesus, and that her voice would be heard with clarity and love in her family. We are also asking God to bring what is true into the light in His timing, and to give you peace and protection as you wait on Him.

It can help to not carry these burdens alone. If you haven't already, it may be steadying to share what you are experiencing with a trusted pastor or counselor in person who knows you and can walk with you in next steps. If you ever feel in immediate danger, please reach out right away to trusted people around you and to your local emergency services, and if housing conditions felt unsafe, a local housing or tenant support office can help you understand options.

Father, we bring this situation to You. We ask for Your protection, for wisdom for the sister as she speaks truth in love, for both siblings to seek You first, and for anything that has taken Your place to be revealed and removed by You. Give our friend rest, discernment, and trusted support nearby. In Jesus' name, amen.

Praying in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your burden has been brought before the Lord and we have carried it to the throne of grace with you.

We pray for the sister of whom you speak, that as one who has faith in Jesus Christ, the only name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved, she may walk faithfully and speak the truth in love. May the Lord give her clarity, courage and a voice that cannot be silenced, that she may not be kept in darkness concerning what has been done, but may be a witness to what is true and right. We ask that her influence may be used by the Spirit to call her brother to account and to point him to repentance and to putting God first in all things.

We pray also for the former landlord, that God in His mercy would expose and destroy every idol. Scripture warns us to keep ourselves from idols, for men make idols of wealth, of lust, of self, and fall into that idolatry which dishonours the name they profess. The axe must be laid at the root of such things. We do not ask God to bless what He calls sin, for He has ordained that marriage is the lifelong covenant of one man and one woman and that the union of the body belongs only within it. What lies outside that covenant is immorality and must be repented of, not celebrated. We pray therefore not for the prospering of an unholy relationship, but for its conviction, its forsaking, and for true purity of heart. We pray that if a dwelling has been let that endangers life, and if wrong has been done through greed or neglect, the truth will be brought into the light and justice will be done.

We know that our God is slow to anger, His lictor carries the axe bound with rods, giving space for repentance, yet He will not at all acquit the wicked. Justice demands that sin be punished, and that punishment fell not upon the repentant sinner but upon the substitute, Jesus, whose blood was shed and whose soul was made an offering for sin. There alone justice is satisfied, and there alone the sinner who confesses and turns to Christ can be forgiven and justified. We pray that both brother and sister, and all concerned, may look to Gethsemane and to the cross, and find there the only ground of pardon.

For you who have suffered and who fear for your life, we pray that the Lord will be your refuge and defence. Persecution in its many forms, even slander and venomous spite, has often driven the child of God nearer to his God and brought forth prayers that would never else have been offered. May the Lord keep you, guard your body and soul, and give you wisdom to seek lawful protection and help where danger is real. May He vindicate the truth and let no scheme formed against you prosper, and may He give you peace as you trust not in man but in Christ alone.

We ask that God would be first in every heart in this matter, that every idol of money, of lust, of power would be cast down, and that Christ alone would be enthroned. May the Lord answer according to His perfect mercy, omnipotence and justice, for His glory and for your good.

I prayed for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

We join you in prayer and we thank you for sharing this burden with us. We have heard your cry for truth to be revealed and for God to be put first, and we bring these needs before the Lord with you.

We pray for the sister who has faith in Jesus, that God would strengthen her faith, keep her close to Christ, and continue to speak through her. We ask that the Lord give her wisdom, courage and love to speak the truth, and that her influence would be used by God to call her brother toward repentance and toward salvation in Jesus Christ alone, for there is no other name by which we are saved.

We pray for your former landlord, that God would open his eyes to any wrong that has been done, including the danger in the apartment that was rented to you, and that he would not hide from the truth but face it honestly. We pray also concerning the sexual relationship you mentioned. Scripture teaches that marriage is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and that sexual intimacy belongs within that covenant alone. We do not ask God to bless what is outside His design, but we pray that both persons involved would see their need for forgiveness, turn from sin, and seek purity and obedience to Christ. We ask that God would expose every idol, whether it be money, pleasure, reputation or power, and destroy its hold, so that Christ alone would be enthroned in their hearts.

We pray for your protection and for justice. What you have described about attempts to harm your life is very serious. We ask our mighty and powerful God to expose every evil deed done in darkness, to bring the truth into the light, to restrain all harm, and to guard you in His care. We pray that He would grant you peace, safety, and confidence in His righteous judgment, for His wrath is revealed against all ungodliness and He will not leave sin unaddressed, yet He also offers mercy to all who repent.

We pray that both the landlord and his sister would put God first in all things, seeking His kingdom and His righteousness above all else, and that you would be comforted and upheld as you trust in the Lord who is your refuge and defender.

We will continue to pray with you that God would bring truth, repentance, justice and healing, and that His will would be done for His glory. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord we pray, Amen.
