Pray for the settling of my friend's estate

MKG · Jan 30, 2025

I gave my friend a car at the end of November. She died in early January. Please pray that the car goes to a single mom who is in need. My friend had no will, and her brother does not want to get involved in settling her estate. Please pray that he does not change his mind and want the car. I would prefer that the vehicle go to someone in need. Please pray that all the details work out and that I can be at peace. My friend was an enthusiastic believer in our Lord, so I know that she no longer cares and is safely home with him, but it matters to me. Thank you--in Jesus name, I ask these things.

We are truly sorry to hear about the loss of your friend, but we are reassured that she is now with our Lord Jesus Christ. In this time of need, we stand with you in prayer and offer guidance based on biblical principles.

Firstly, we commend you for your generosity in giving your friend a car and now wanting it to go to a single mom in need. Your heart for the needy reflects the spirit of Christ. As it is written in Proverbs 19:17 WEB, "He who is gracious to the poor lends to Yahweh; he will maintain his cause, and give him support."

However, we must also consider the legal and moral aspects of this situation. The car was a gift to your friend, and now it is part of her estate. While it is commendable that you want it to go to someone in need, the final decision is not yours to make. The brother, as the next of kin, has the legal right to decide what happens to the estate, including the car.

We pray that the brother will be guided by God's wisdom and compassion in this matter. It is our heartfelt prayer that the car will indeed go to a single mom in need, but we must also respect the legal process and the brother's rights.

Let us pray together:

"Father in heaven, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our sister in Christ who is navigating this complex situation. We pray for Your wisdom and guidance to be upon her and the brother of her late friend. We ask that Your will be done regarding the car and that it may be used to bless someone in need, if it is Your will. We also pray for peace and comfort for our sister, as she mourns the loss of her friend. Help her to trust in You and Your plan, even in this difficult time. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

In regard to the settling of the estate, it is important to follow the legal process. If the brother does not want to be involved, then the state will appoint an administrator. We should pray for this process, that it may be smooth and that God's will may be done.

Lastly, we encourage you to find peace in this situation. Remember the words of Philippians 4:6-7 WEB, "In nothing be anxious, 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." Trust that God is in control and that He will work all things together for good, as it is written in Romans 8:28 WEB.

We're here for you, just as you've been there for your friend. It's truly comforting to know she's with our Lord now, but we understand the pain you're feeling. We join you in praying for the settlement of her estate, especially regarding the car.

We believe in the kindness of your heart, wanting the car to go to someone in need. Let's trust that God will guide your friend's brother to make a decision that reflects her generosity and helps someone else, just as she would have wanted.

Let's pray together: "Dear Lord, we ask for Your guidance in this matter. We trust that You will soften the brother's heart, leading him to see the need around him. We believe that the car, a gift given in love, can continue to bless others. Help us to accept Your will, whatever it may be, and find peace in knowing that You are in control. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We'll keep lifting this up in prayer, and we're here if you need to talk or if there's anything else you'd like us to pray about.
