We hear your cry for justice, protection, and a godly marriage, and we stand with you in prayer, lifting all these concerns before the throne of God. First, we must address some critical matters in your request to ensure we align with Scripture and the will of the Lord.
You mention speaking decrees, demands, and commands into existence, but we must remind you that it is God alone who creates, judges, and brings justice. We are called to pray in faith, trusting in His sovereignty, not to wield authority as if we ourselves are gods. The Word of God tells us, *"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways," says Yahweh. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts"* (Isaiah 55:8-9). We must humble ourselves before Him, submitting our desires and needs to His perfect will.
You also speak of rebuking Satan and his crew, which is right and necessary, but we must do so in the name and authority of Jesus Christ. *"Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith"* (1 Peter 5:8-9). We rebuke the enemy not by our own power, but by the blood of Jesus and the word of our testimony (Revelation 12:11). It is only through Christ that we have authority over the forces of darkness.
Your frustration with those who seek to harm you is understandable, but we must guard our hearts against bitterness and unforgiveness. Jesus teaches us, *"But I tell you, 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). This does not mean we ignore injustice, but we trust God to avenge. *"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).
Now, regarding your desire for a husband, we rejoice in your longing for a godly marriage, for the Bible celebrates this sacred union. *"He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh"* (Proverbs 18:22). However, we must caution against desperation or impatience, for God’s timing is perfect. We encourage you to seek the Lord first, trusting Him to bring the right man into your life at the right time. *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well"* (Matthew 6:33). Prepare your heart to be a godly wife, and let the Lord guide you to a man who loves Him above all else.
We must also address the mention of fornication or sexual immorality, as the Bible is clear that sexual intimacy is reserved for marriage between one man and one woman. *"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4). If there has been any sin in this area, we encourage you to repent and seek God’s forgiveness, trusting in His grace to cleanse and restore you.
Finally, we notice that while you mention God Almighty, you do not explicitly call on the name of Jesus Christ. We must emphasize that it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father. *"Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me’"* (John 14:6). There is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus, we urge you to do so today. Confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection, and invite Him to be the Lord of your life.
Let us now pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We lift up this sister to You, asking for Your divine protection over her life. Lord, we rebuke every scheme of the enemy designed to harm, steal, or destroy. We declare that no weapon formed against her shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we ask You to expose and dismantle every plan of darkness in her life and community.
Father, we pray for justice. You see every injustice, and we trust You to bring righteous judgment in Your perfect timing. We ask that You would intervene in the situations she has described, bringing light into the darkness and exposing evil. Let Your justice roll like a river and Your righteousness like an ever-flowing stream (Amos 5:24).
Lord, we also pray for her heart. Guard her from bitterness, fear, and despair. Fill her with Your peace, joy, and hope. Help her to trust in You completely, knowing that You are her refuge and strength (Psalm 46:1). Teach her to love her enemies and pray for those who persecute her, that she may reflect Your heart of mercy and grace.
Father, we lift up her desire for a godly marriage. We ask that You would prepare her heart to be a wife after Your own heart, and that You would bring a man into her life who loves You above all else. Let their union be a testimony to Your goodness and a reflection of Christ’s love for the Church (Ephesians 5:25-33). Give her patience and faith as she waits on Your timing.
Lord, if there has been any sin in her life, we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Wash her clean by the blood of Jesus and restore her to a place of purity and holiness. Help her to walk in obedience to Your Word, honoring You in all she does.
Finally, Father, we ask that You would draw her closer to Jesus. Let her know Him more deeply, love Him more fervently, and serve Him more faithfully. May she find her identity, worth, and purpose in Christ alone.
We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
