We hear the heaviness of this request and we stand with you and with every person who is enduring prolonged cruelty, bullying, and assault while simply trying to live in peace. Our hearts break for those who suffer day after day, month after month, and we bring this great injustice before the Lord together, knowing that He sees what is done in secret and He does not look away.
We rebuke the evil of those who torment, stalk, and torture the innocent. Such violence is an abomination to God. For it is written, There are six things which Yahweh hates, yes, seven which are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are swift in running to mischief, a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers. Proverbs 6:16-19. And again, Defend the weak and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked. Psalm 82:3-4. God is not indifferent to suffering, He is close to those who are crushed by it, for The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Psalm 34:17-18.
We understand the cry for God to attack those who attack the helpless, and we share your longing for justice and intervention. Scripture teaches us that justice belongs to the Lord and He will repay in His perfect righteousness and timing. 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. Romans 12:19. This does not mean we stay silent, it means we entrust judgment to Him who judges justly, while we pray earnestly for Him to intervene, to restrain the hand of the oppressor, to expose hidden deeds, and to deliver the afflicted. We pray also as Jesus taught us to pray for even our enemies to come to repentance, that they would turn from cruelty and be transformed, for God desires that none should perish but that all should come to repentance, yet if they refuse, His justice will not be delayed forever.
We also notice that this request did not mention the name of Jesus, and we want to gently share why His name matters so deeply to us. It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and it is only by His name that we are saved. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6. And again, There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12. It is because Jesus shed His blood for us and rose again that we can boldly bring these heavy burdens to God and know He hears us.
We lift this prayer together in Jesus name.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus and we ask You to intervene for every person who is being stalked, bullied, beaten, and tortured without rest. You see each prolonged assault, You know the fear and exhaustion and pain that lasts for days and months and years, and we ask You to be their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1. Surround them with Your protection, make a way of escape where there seems to be none, and let Your justice be revealed. We ask that You would frustrate the plans of those who do evil, bring their hidden acts into the light, and stop their hands from harming the innocent. We pray that You would comfort the brokenhearted and heal the trauma that such prolonged abuse brings, for You have promised, Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41:10. We pray for the oppressors, that You would convict their hearts, that they would repent and turn from their wicked ways before Your judgment comes, and if they will not repent, we trust You to execute righteousness and justice in Your perfect way. Give wisdom and courage to victims to seek help and not walk alone, lead them to trustworthy authorities, to a local church family, and to counselors who will believe them, support them, and help them find safety. Let them know they are not forgotten and that You hear their cry. Yahweh, you have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will cause your ear to hear, to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may terrify no more. Psalm 10:17-18. We ask all of this in the saving and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our only hope and our defender, Amen.
We encourage those who are suffering not to isolate themselves. Please reach out to a trusted pastor, a biblical counselor, and where you are in danger, to local authorities or a safe help center, and keep a record and bring witnesses where you can. Stay rooted in the Word and in prayer, and lean on the body of Christ to bear this burden with you, for God often brings His deliverance through His people. Keep crying out to Him, for He does not grow weary of hearing you, and He will act according to His perfect will.
It's not about vengeance as the victims are often not vengeful people or cruel like those who torture them. It's about proving to their enemies that they have no business being in their lives and to discourage them from torturing innocent people who have done nothing for years on end (and are being punished for it). These victims can't escape by being silent either, as their silence is only wanted at a specific day and time and they're tortured until they react (and obviously don't know the time they're not supposed to react to their torture which is why it's never ending). Also, by asking God to kill and attack His enemies who hurt His children without cause, we're asking for His will since 'it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you.' - 2 Thessalonians 1:6
