We need hot water in my house

[Kensem]

My apartment building has no hot water because they're repairing the heating system. They promised it would be fixed on last Tuesday, but they didn't finish. Please pray everything will be finished by tomorrow. It is impossible to shower in ice cold water…

Please pray for a mighty solution … if I have to move, please pray that God provides an alternative home
Apparently, they say that there won't be heating from 15th October because they couldn't agree on the repair costs, and no one wants to do the job.

I also have mild flu

 

[Articles]

We have heard your request and we join together with you in bringing this very practical and uncomfortable need before our Father in heaven. We know how difficult it is to live without hot water, to face the cold, and to deal with sickness at the same time, and we want you to know that God cares about every detail of our lives, even these daily necessities.

We are reminded that we are to bring everything to God in prayer. Philippians 4:6-7 says, Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. And Matthew 6:31-33 reminds us not to worry about our daily needs, but to seek first Gods Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to us as well. Our God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble as Psalm 46:1 tells us, and we trust He sees your discomfort and your concern about the coming winter.

We also notice that your request did not mention the name of Jesus, and we want to lovingly share that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God and that our prayers are heard. John 14:6 says, Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And Acts 4:12 says, There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. We encourage you to put your trust in Jesus Christ, believing that He died for our sins and rose again, and to call upon His name. Romans 10:9 says, If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. It is in His name that we pray for you now.

Let us pray together.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ we come before You together and lift up this need for hot water and heat. Lord, You know the situation in this apartment building, the delayed repairs, the disagreement over costs, and the uncertainty about heating after October 15th. We ask for Your mighty hand to move. We pray that You would give wisdom and willingness to those responsible for the repairs, that they would reach agreement quickly and that skilled workers would be provided to complete the job well and on time. We pray that if it is Your will, the hot water would be restored by tomorrow and that the heating system would be ready before the cold comes, so that all the residents may live in comfort and safety. If it is not possible for the work to be done there, we ask that You would provide a clear alternative, an affordable and safe home where this need would be met. Philippians 4:19 says, My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus, and we trust You to provide.

We also lift up the mild flu and ask for Your healing touch. We pray for rest, recovery, and strength, and that this illness would pass quickly without becoming worse. Psalm 103:2-3 says, Praise Yahweh, my soul, and dont forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases. We ask for Your comfort and restoration to the body. We also cast all our worries on You, as 1 Peter 5:7 says, casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.

Lord, we pray for peace in the midst of this waiting and frustration. Help our friend to trust in You with all their heart and not lean on their own understanding, as Proverbs 3:5-6 teaches, and to know that in all things You work for the good of those who love You, as Romans 8:28 promises. Give patience, give favor when speaking with building management, and give assurance that You are near.

We ask all of this in the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and our only hope. Amen.

We encourage you to continue to trust the Lord in this situation, to keep praying in Jesus name, and to also take practical steps as you are able, such as following up graciously with the building management and seeking wise counsel about your housing options. We also encourage you to care for your health, to rest and seek medical care if the flu worsens, trusting that God often heals through both prayer and provision. We are standing with you in prayer for a swift solution, for warmth and comfort to be restored, and for complete healing.

We hear how wearing this has been for you, trying to get through daily life without hot water and now facing uncertainty about heat in October, all while you are fighting a flu. Showering in ice cold water is miserable, and waiting past the promised repair date with no clear answer makes it harder to rest or plan.

It makes sense you would feel stuck between hoping the repairs finish tomorrow and wondering if you may need to look for another place. That kind of uncertainty is exhausting, especially when you are not feeling well.

One small step that sometimes helps in a building-wide repair is to get any update in writing from the manager or building office, even a short email or note with the new timeline and what they are doing about the cost disagreement. Having it written down can make it easier to know where things stand and what options you have. If you need to shower in the next day or two, maybe a trusted neighbor, family member, or local community facility could offer a warm shower as a short-term bridge.

For the flu, please consider checking in with your doctor or clinic if it lingers or gets worse, alongside our prayers for you.

Father, we lift up this practical need for hot water and reliable heat, and we ask for wisdom for those responsible for the repairs and for provision and clear direction if a move becomes necessary. Please bring comfort and healing as our friend recovers from this flu and give peace in the waiting. In Jesus' name, amen.

Praying for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

We have brought your burden before the Lord and have entreated Him on your behalf in this time of discomfort and need.

To be without hot water and heating as the colder days approach, to face uncertainty about repairs and costs, and to bear besides a sickness of the body, is a trial that presses both flesh and spirit. Yet we are reminded that the true believer recognizes God everywhere and sees His hand in all the good or ill that chequers life. He is the God of the hills and the God of the valleys, alike present in great matters and in small, in the want of daily comforts as well as in the weightier cares of the soul. Though clouds may surround you, He is your light, and though storms rage around you, He is your might.

We would have you take God at His word and trust Him. Where God begins to work He does not ask you to finish, for He always completes His own work. If you have trusted in the blood of Jesus Christ alone for salvation, you may say My God with a humble confidence, knowing that He hears you when you declare your ways before Him. Do not give up prayer because the answer seems delayed. Like our Lord, cry again and again, My God, My God, and be more earnest than ever, for there is no true understanding of the truths of God except by a personal experience of them, and He pleads the cause of His people.

Let us pray together.

O Lord, our God, Thou art the God who hearest prayer, and Thou hast taught us to cast all our care upon Thee. We bring before Thee this need for hot water and heat. Thou knowest the cold that is endured and the promises that have been broken. We ask, if it be Thy will, that Thou wouldst move the hearts of those responsible, that they may be brought to agreement and that the workmen may complete the repair speedily, even by the morrow. Where there is contention over cost, grant wisdom and goodwill, and let not Thy people suffer needlessly.

We ask also for healing of the body. Lay Thy hand upon this mild infirmity and restore health and strength, that there may be comfort and vigor for daily duties.

And if it be not Thy will to restore these comforts in this place, we pray that Thou, who art Jehovah Jireh, would provide an alternative home in Thy perfect providence, a place of safety and peace and warmth. Give guidance in every decision about whether to stay or to move, and let Thy will be made plain.

Above all, we pray that this affliction may drive the soul nearer to Christ, in whom alone is salvation, and that there may be present peace and a rejoicing in hope of the glory of God. Keep this one trusting and not fearing, loving Him who gives Himself to be trusted.

We ask all this in the name and through the merits of Jesus Christ our Lord, who ever liveth to make intercession for us. Amen.
