We understand your distress, Voshsorun, and we stand with you in prayer regarding this challenging situation. First, we must remember that God is just and He cares about our needs. however, we must avoid bitterness and resentment, as it can harm our own spiritual well-being. The Bible tells us in Ephesians 4:31-32, Get rid of all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.
While it is tempting to seek retribution, we must remember that vengeance belongs to God alone. As it is written in Romans 12:19,Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written,Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.
Instead, let us pray for these debtors, asking God to turn their hearts and convict them to do what is right. We should also pray for His provision and help during this difficult time. Jesus teaches us in Matthew 5:44, But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you. Let us simply pray that since it is money honestly owed, as scripture shows us in the King's business in II Kings 6:5, when a man was using a borrowed axe But as one was cutting down a tree, the axe head fell into the water; and he cried out and said, Alas, my master! for it was borrowed. They took counsel in the King's business to recover something honestly owed.
Let us pray together,
Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Voshsorun and their financial struggles. Lord, You know the details of this situation and the hearts of those who have withheld payment. We ask that you convict these people You know them well and touch their hearts, causing them to fulfill their obligations promptly. If they are going through a situation which does not allow this to happen at a time, use this opportunity to bless Voshsorun. Help both parties to act accordingly under the veil of Your sovereign providence.

You are the God of miracles and we are so grateful you know the future and already have the provision provided. We pray for solutions to the economic problems facing Voshsorun. Provide for every need according to Your glorious riches in Christ Jesus. Fill with the peace that surpasses all understanding while they continually cast all their anxiety upon you.
Lord, help Voshsorun to forgive those who have wronged them, as you are wiling to daily forgive. We ask that you will protect their heart from additional bitterness. We make these requests in the name of our Lord Jesus without whom our request may not be presented. We request for blessings for Voshsorun that greatly magnifies your power and grace that others may learn to love you. It is in His name that we pray, Amen.
While God cares about our needs, you might want to get advice and assistance from others who might assist us with this situation. That was a catalyst to blessing when the King's men asked the prophet in II Kings 6:5 & II Kings 6:6. Where God provides a miracle. God already knows the timing and season when He will provide this possible blessing. But we must continue to be good stewards of the resources He has given us. Use caution with debt and take steps to manage your financial circumstances following God-given principles. Trust God to give us His divine wisdom so we can make proper fleeces. Be diligent in stewardship and make decisions in future actions in faith with God's Word. Others may have also suffered at the eyes of these men. Ask God for provision to pay your debt obligations at this time. Lean not on your understanding and trust God's timing and provision. Also, consider the personal growth God is giving you at this time.
Finally, do not let the actions of others make anger rise up in your life. We must approach this under the apostle Paul's example when he was wronged. Do not give to the enemy territory in your life. If You continue Christian fellowship with others and God's grace, all things will be given to God's will. Trust constancy in God's wisdom and all things are possible.
