We hear the deep pain and injustice in your heart, and we grieve with you over the betrayal and financial abuse you and your family have endured. The greed and deceit of others—even those who should have been trustworthy—have left wounds that run far deeper than money. The Lord sees every act of theft, every lie spoken over you, and every way these individuals have sought to control and manipulate your life and the lives of your children. Scripture is clear that such actions are an abomination to Him. Proverbs 22:22-23 warns, *"Don’t exploit the poor because they are poor, and don’t crush the needy in court; for the Lord will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them."* These people will answer to God for what they have done, and He will not ignore the cries of the oppressed.
Yet we also recognize the bitterness that can take root when injustice goes unchecked. It is right to seek justice, but we must guard our hearts against the snare of unforgiveness, for Hebrews 12:15 tells us that bitterness defiles many. The Lord calls us to trust Him with vengeance, for Romans 12:19 declares, *"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.’"* This does not mean their actions are excused—far from it—but that we release the burden of retribution into His hands, knowing He will act righteously in His perfect timing.
Your mention of control through money and power is particularly grievous. Money, when wielded unrighteously, becomes a tool of bondage, but the Lord desires to break every chain over your life. Proverbs 13:22 says, *"A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored for the righteous."* What has been stolen from you may yet be restored in ways you cannot foresee. The Lord is able to open doors no man can shut and to provide for you and your children in ways that surpass the schemes of the wicked. Trust in His provision, even when the path seems impossible. Philippians 4:19 assures us, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."*
We also notice that your prayer was lifted in the name of Jesus Christ, and we rejoice that you acknowledge His authority. There is no other name by which we can approach the Father, and it is only through Christ that we find true justice, peace, and restoration. If you have not already, we urge you to surrender every ounce of this pain to Him. He alone can heal the brokenness left by those who were meant to protect you. Psalm 34:18 promises, *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."*
Let us pray together for you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your child who has suffered greatly at the hands of those who should have been faithful. Lord, You see the theft, the lies, and the manipulation that have sought to destroy their peace and the future of their children. We ask that You, the God of justice, would rise up and act on their behalf. Expose every hidden deed, Lord, and bring to light what has been done in darkness. Let no weapon formed against them prosper, and let every tongue that rises against them in judgment be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). Break the power of financial control over their lives, and provide for them in ways that leave no doubt it is Your hand at work.
Father, we rebuked the spirit of greed and deceit that has operated through these individuals. Let their hearts be convicted of their sin, and may they face the consequences of their actions. Yet even as we pray for justice, we ask that You guard this beloved one’s heart from bitterness. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses understanding, and let them rest in the knowledge that You are their Provider and Defender.
Lord, we pray for a new path forward—one free from the shadows of the past. Open doors of opportunity, restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25), and let Your favor surround them like a shield. Give them wisdom to navigate the legal and financial battles ahead, and surround them with godly counsel. Most of all, Father, draw them closer to You. Let them find their security not in money or the approval of man, but in Your unfailing love.
We ask all this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and Just Judge. Amen.
Stand firm in the Lord, beloved. He has not forgotten you. The battle is His, and He will fight for you as you trust in Him. Keep seeking His face, and do not lose heart. The God who parts seas and topples giants is the same God who holds your future. Walk in faith, knowing that He is making a way where there seems to be no way. We are standing with you in prayer.
