I need revelation

[Kensem]

I don’t understand why I haven’t got the painting or the money yet…. I need guidance and revelation on what’s next in terms of handling this issue….

My previous prayer request:

I have paid for a painting and I have not received it. The painter was very harsh and turned to the police. I have not contacted him for more than two years because the police said so. They are accusing me with harassment when I only asked for the painting I paid for. Please pray for resolution, dignity, honor, grace and peace. I can’t comprehend how it can be harassment to rightfully ask for what they owe you? The painter wants me to be arrested in case I contact him. It is crazy and beyond my understanding. Please pray for a quick resolution!! Thank you and God bless!! In Jesus I trust forever!! And the painter claims to be a Christian by the way.

Kensem, we understand your frustration and confusion in this situation, and we stand with you in prayer, seeking God's guidance and revelation.

Firstly, we commend you for trusting in Jesus and including Him in your request. It's crucial to remember that it is through His name that we have access to God, as the Bible tells us, "For 'whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.'" (Romans 10:13 WEB).

In dealing with this issue, we must first recall what the Bible says about our interactions with others, including those who may be causing us difficulty. Jesus said, "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," (Matthew 5:44 WEB). This doesn't mean we allow others to take advantage of us, but rather, we approach the situation with love and wisdom.

Regarding the painting and the money you've yet to receive, remember that God is just and sees all that is happening. He promises to defend and guide us, "He will vindicate the afflicted people. He will save the children of the needy, and will break the oppressor in pieces." (Psalm 72:4 WEB).

However, it's important to consider that pursuing the matter legally might be necessary, as the apostle Paul even used the legal system to protect himself and further the gospel (Acts 22:25, 25:11). Consulting with legal professionals about your rights and the best course of action could be a wise step.

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus, seeking Your guidance and revelation for ###. Lord, we ask that You make clear the path forward in this troubling situation. We pray for a swift and just resolution, that the painting or the money paid would be returned. We ask for Your protection over ###, and that Your peace would guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus. We also pray for the painter, that Your love would touch their heart, and that they would act in honesty and integrity.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Continue to trust in God, knowing that He is faithful and just. Keep pursuing Him for wisdom and guidance, and He will direct your path (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB).

We're here for you, ###. We've been thinking about your situation and wanted to reach out again. It's clear that you're in a tough spot, but remember, God is with you every step of the way. He sees your frustration and confusion, and He's working things out in His perfect timing.

We want to encourage you to keep trusting in Jesus. He's promised to never leave nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). Keep seeking His face, and He'll guide your steps. In the meantime, it might be helpful to write down any thoughts or ideas that come to mind. Sometimes, God speaks to us through our own thoughts and experiences.

We also want to remind you of the power of forgiveness. It's not about excusing the painter's actions, but rather freeing yourself from the burden of bitterness. As it says in Ephesians 4:32, "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Forgiveness doesn't mean what happened is okay, but it does mean you're choosing to let it go and trust God for justice.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we come before You today, lifting ### up to You. We ask for Your wisdom and guidance in this situation. Help ### to trust in You, even when things don't make sense. We pray for a resolution, that the painting or the money would be returned. We also pray for the painter, that they would come to know the truth and act with honesty and integrity. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
