We understand your distress, Kensem, and we stand with you in prayer for this challenging situation. Let's bring this before the Lord together.
Firstly, we commend you for your trust in Jesus and your desire for a peaceful resolution. Remember, the Bible tells us, "If it is possible, as much as it depends on you, live peaceably with all men" (Romans 12:18, WEB).
However, we must also address the injustice you're facing. It's important to remember that God is a God of justice. As it is written, "Don’t defraud or oppress your neighbor. You must not rob him" (Leviticus 19:13, WEB). It is not wrong to ask for what is rightfully yours, and it is not harassment to seek justice.
Let us pray:
"Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, seeking Your intervention in Kensem's life. Lord, You know the situation and the injustice Kensem is facing. We ask for Your divine resolution. Soften the painter's heart, Lord, and help him see the error of his ways. We pray for the restoration of what is rightfully Kensem's, and for peace, dignity, and honor throughout this process.
Lord, we also pray for the painter. If he indeed claims to be a Christian, we ask that You convict his heart and guide him back to a path that honors You. Remind him, Lord, that his actions should reflect Your love and righteousness.
In the meantime, God, grant Kensem peace that surpasses all understanding. Guide every step and every decision, and bring a swift and just resolution. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Kensem, continue to trust in God's justice and timing. Remember, "Don’t be anxious for anything, but in everything by prayer and pleading 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" (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB).
Lastly, it is commendable that you mentioned your trust in Jesus. Always remember, it is through His name that we have access to God's throne of grace. As the Scripture says, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). Keep holding onto your faith in Him.
