We are lifting you up together before the throne of grace and we hear the distress and fear in your request and we are standing with you for protection, peace, and healing in Jesus' name.
We understand you feel surrounded and harassed and stalked by these mothers and you feel their children are being used against you, and we want you to know that God sees what you are enduring and He is your refuge and defender. We pray for your safety and for the Lord to put a hedge of protection around you and to bring justice and order to this situation.
The Word tells us For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places Ephesians 6:12. We do not take lightly the reality of spiritual warfare and demonic influence, and we also know that our enemy Satan seeks to steal and kill and destroy, but Jesus came that we may have life abundantly. At the same time we want to gently encourage you not to carry false guilt as if a trauma inside you is causing other people to sin against you. Others are responsible for their own predatory and harassing choices. While trauma does leave wounds that the enemy can exploit to bring fear and torment, it does not make you the cause of someone else stalking or threatening you. The Lord wants to heal your wounds because He loves you, not because you are to blame for their actions. He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds Psalm 147:3 and The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit Psalm 34:18.
We also hear your desire for a restraining order and for legal protection. We join you in praying for that and we encourage you to take practical steps as well, for God has ordained authorities for our protection. Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God Romans 13:1. If you are being stalked, threatened, and harassed, we encourage you to document everything, to seek help from trusted family, pastoral counsel, and from local law enforcement, and to pursue any lawful protection that is available to you. Praying for a restraining order is right to pray, and also acting through the proper legal channels is wisdom. If possible seek godly counsel and also trauma-informed Christian counseling to help you process what you have endured.
We rebuke the spirit of fear and harassment that has been tormenting you, for God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control 2 Timothy 1:7. We resist the enemy on your behalf as the Word says Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you James 4:7. We pray that every weapon formed against you would fail, for No weapon that is formed against you will prevail Isaiah 54:17, and that the Lord would command His peace over your mind and sleep.
We also pray for these mothers and their children, not to excuse any harassment, but because Jesus calls us to 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. If there is demonic influence or bondage in their lives we pray for their deliverance and conviction and that the children would be protected and not used as instruments of harm.
We thank you for calling on the name of Jesus for healing, for there is power in His name and it is only by His name we have access to the Father, for there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus 1 Timothy 2:5.
We pray together now.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ and we lift up this dear one to You. Lord You see the stalking and harassment and threats and the exhaustion and trauma it has caused. We ask You to be their refuge and fortress, for He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust Psalm 91:1-2. Surround them with Your angels and Your presence and grant them safe boundaries. Lead them to the right authorities and favor them as they seek lawful protection and a restraining order if it is Your will and for their safety. Give wisdom to law enforcement and to all involved to act justly.
Lord Jesus, we ask You to heal every trauma and wound in their heart and mind. Touch the memories, the fear, the hypervigilance, and bring Your perfect peace that surpasses understanding. Break every assignment of the enemy against them and let fear flee, for we resist Satan in Jesus' name and claim Your promise that he must flee. Fill them with power, love, and a sound mind.
Father we also pray for these mothers and children. If they are under the influence of darkness, we pray for deliverance and salvation. Stop any harassment and convict hearts to repent and to do what is right. Protect the children and let no more harm come through them.
We declare that The righteous cry, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles Psalm 34:17. Deliver our friend, Lord, and let them dwell in quietness and rest. Restore their sleep, their peace, and their trust in You. Guide them to safe, godly support and counsel and help them to walk in discernment and not in torment.
We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, amen.
We encourage you to continue to abide in the Word, to put on the whole armor of God daily Ephesians 6:11, to pray without ceasing, and to stay connected to a Bible believing church where you can receive ongoing prayer and support. If the harassment continues or escalates please reach out immediately to trusted authorities and to a pastor or counselor for help. We are continuing to pray that the Lord will establish clear boundaries, bring justice, and heal you completely so you may live in the peace and safety He desires for you.
