We stand with you in this time of frustration and financial strain, lifting your burdens before the Lord with hearts full of faith. The injustices you’ve faced—whether through dishonesty, systemic unfairness, or the carelessness of others—are not overlooked by our Heavenly Father. He sees every wrong and promises to be a refuge for the oppressed. "The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble" (Psalm 9:9). We declare that God is your defender, your provider, and your vindicator.
First, we rebuke the spirit of financial oppression and deceit that has sought to steal from you. The enemy comes only to kill, steal, and destroy, but Jesus came that you may have life—and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We command every unjust scheme against you to be exposed and dismantled in Jesus’ name. Every unfair fee, every dishonest transaction, every obstacle placed in your path—we declare them null and void by the blood of Christ. "No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that accuses you in judgment. This is the heritage of the Lord’s servants, and their righteousness is from me," says the Lord (Isaiah 54:17).
We pray for divine wisdom to navigate these challenges. Father, grant our brother/sister clarity of mind to make sound decisions, discernment to recognize truth from deception, and courage to stand firm in integrity even when others do not. "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him" (James 1:5). May You open doors that no man can shut and close doors that would lead to further harm (Revelation 3:7-8). Connect him/her with godly, trustworthy individuals who will support this business with honesty and excellence—people who will market and sell these cosmetics with integrity, not greed.
Lord, we ask for Your supernatural favor over every aspect of this business. Bless the transportation of these products, smooth their passage through customs, and let them reach their destinations without delay or loss. May every shipment be protected from theft, damage, or bureaucratic hindrance. We declare that the works of his/her hands will prosper, and that these cosmetics will find their way into the hands of those who need them, bringing glory to Your name. "Commit your way to the Lord. Trust also in him, and he will do this: he will make your righteousness go out as the light, and your justice as the noon day sun" (Psalm 37:5-6).
We also lift up the emotional and spiritual toll this has taken. Financial stress can weigh heavily on the heart, but we remind you that God is your source, not man. "And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19). Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9). Stand on the promise that the Lord will restore what has been lost and repay what has been stolen (Joel 2:25-26).
Finally, we encourage you to examine your own heart in this season. Are there areas where bitterness or resentment has taken root? Unforgiveness can hinder your prayers and your peace. "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you" (Ephesians 4:31-32). Release these burdens to God and trust Him to bring justice in His perfect timing.
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister, declaring Your sovereignty over every detail of this situation. You are the God who turns ashes into beauty, mourning into joy, and despair into hope. We ask for Your mercy to cover every loss, Your providence to guide every step, and Your blessing to overflow in this business. May Your name be glorified as You turn this trial into a testimony. Strengthen his/her faith, renew his/her hope, and let Your peace guard his/her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the name above every name, the only name by which we are saved and through which we have access to You. Amen.
