Division

Beloved of All
My own family hates me and persecutes! They don’t even believe in God they hate the word of God so you can pray all u want. My dad is a narcissist and he is trying me and provoking reaction! He’s hated me ###.
 
We hear the deep pain and isolation in your words, and our hearts grieve with you. To be rejected by those who should love and protect you is a heavy burden to carry, especially when their disdain extends to the very faith that sustains you. The Bible tells us, *"If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you"* (John 15:18-19). You are not alone in this suffering—Christ Himself endured the hatred of those closest to Him, and He understands your sorrow.

Your father’s behavior is deeply troubling, and we must address it with both truth and compassion. Narcissism is a distortion of God’s design for family, where parents are called to nurture, protect, and reflect His love. Instead, your father’s actions are provoking you to sin, and we must rebuke this in Jesus’ name. *"Fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord"* (Ephesians 6:4). His hatred toward you is not just a personal failing—it is a spiritual battle, and we stand against it. We declare that no weapon formed against you will prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we command every spirit of division, hatred, and strife to flee from your family in the mighty name of Jesus!

We also must address the hardness of heart in those who reject God’s Word. The Bible warns, *"The natural man doesn’t receive the things of God’s Spirit, for they are foolishness to him, and he can’t know them, because they are spiritually discerned"* (1 Corinthians 2:14). Their unbelief is not just an intellectual rejection—it is a spiritual blindness. But we serve a God who opens eyes and softens hearts! We pray that the Holy Spirit would move powerfully in your family, breaking the chains of unbelief and drawing them to repentance. We declare that the same God who saved Saul of Tarsus—a persecutor of Christians—can save your family members. Nothing is impossible for Him!

Now, let us pray for you:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts for our brother/sister who is suffering under the weight of family rejection and persecution. Lord, You see every tear, every wound, and every moment of loneliness. We ask that You would be their comfort, their shield, and their strong tower. Surround them with Your presence, reminding them that they are never alone because You are with them. *"When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up"* (Psalm 27:10).

Father, we rebuke the spirit of division and hatred in this family. We break every curse of rejection, abandonment, and strife spoken over our brother/sister’s life. We declare that they are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), loved by You, and destined for Your purposes. We pray for their father—though he has caused pain, we ask that You would soften his heart. Turn his pride into humility, his hatred into love, and his unbelief into faith. Let him encounter Your holiness in a way that leaves him undone, just as You did with Saul on the road to Damascus.

Lord, we ask that You would protect our brother/sister’s heart from bitterness, anger, and despair. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Give them the strength to respond to hatred with love, to persecution with patience, and to rejection with the knowledge of Your unshakable acceptance. Surround them with godly community—believers who will stand with them, pray for them, and remind them of Your truth.

We also pray for their family’s salvation. Father, we know that You desire all to come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). We ask that You would send laborers into their lives—people who will speak truth in love, who will live out the gospel before them, and who will pray for them relentlessly. Let them see the light of Christ in our brother/sister’s life, and let it draw them to You.

Finally, Lord, we ask that You would use this trial for Your glory. Turn their pain into a testimony, their suffering into strength, and their loneliness into a platform for Your love. Let them walk in the victory that is already theirs through Christ Jesus. We pray all of this in the mighty, matchless name of Jesus, the One who overcame the world and who promises to never leave nor forsake us. Amen.

Beloved, we want you to know that your suffering is not in vain. The Bible says, *"For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us"* (Romans 8:18). God is using this season to refine you, to draw you closer to Him, and to prepare you for the purposes He has for you. Do not lose heart. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). He is your defender, your redeemer, and your ever-present help in trouble.

We encourage you to cling to God’s Word, even when your family rejects it. Let it be the foundation that holds you steady. Spend time in prayer, not just for yourself, but for your family. Pray for their salvation with faith, believing that God can do the impossible. And when the enemy whispers lies—*"They will never change," "You are unloved," "God has forgotten you"*—counter those lies with the truth of Scripture. You are loved with an everlasting love (Jeremiah 31:3), and God has plans for you, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11).

If you are not already connected to a local body of believers, we strongly encourage you to seek one out. The church is called to be a family for those who have been rejected by their earthly families. Find a community that will love you, support you, and stand with you in prayer. You were not meant to walk this path alone.

Lastly, we must address the mention of the name of Jesus in your request. While you referenced God’s Word, we want to remind you that it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father. Jesus said, *"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 under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not already, we encourage you to place your faith fully in Jesus Christ—repenting of your sins, believing in His death and resurrection, and surrendering your life to Him. He is the only one who can truly heal your heart and bring you into right relationship with God.

You are deeply loved, and we are standing with you in prayer. May the Lord bless you and keep you; may He make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; may He lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace (Numbers 6:24-26).
 
Dear friend, we're here with you, feeling your pain and anger. It's so unfair that your own family should treat you this way, especially when they reject the very faith that gives you hope. Your dad's narcissism is causing you immense hurt, but remember, Jesus understands. He too was rejected and hated by those closest to Him.

We want you to know that God sees you, He's right there with you. He's not surprised by your family's behavior, and He's not punishing you. This is a spiritual battle, and we're standing with you, praying for you in Jesus' name.

We declare that no weapon formed against you will prosper, and every spirit of division, hatred, and strife must flee from your family. We also pray for your family members, that God would open their hearts to receive His truth and draw them to repentance.

We ask God to fill you with His peace, to give you strength to respond to hatred with love, to persecution with patience, and to rejection with the knowledge of His unshakable acceptance. We pray that He would surround you with godly community, believers who will stand with you, pray for you, and remind you of His truth.

Lastly, we want to encourage you to keep clinging to God's Word, to spend time in prayer, and to trust that God is using this season to refine you and draw you closer to Him. You are deeply loved, and we're standing with you in prayer. May the Lord bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you, and give you peace.
 
Praying for this request in the Mighty name of Jesus:

Psalm 91
You Are My Refuge and My Fortress

1He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.a

2I will say to the LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”

3Surely He will deliver you
from the snare of the fowler,
and from the deadly plague.

4He will cover you with His feathers;
under His wings you will find refuge;
His faithfulness is a shield and rampart.

5You will not fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,

6nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the calamity that destroys at noon.

7Though a thousand may fall at your side,
and ten thousand at your right hand,
no harm will come near you.

8You will only see it with your eyes
and witness the punishment of the wicked.

9Because you have made the LORD your dwelling—
my refuge, the Most High—

10no evil will befall you,
no plague will approach your tent.

11For He will command His angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.

12They will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.b

13You will tread on the lion and cobra;
you will trample the young lion and serpent.

14“Because he loves Me, I will deliver him;
because he knows My name, I will protect him.

15When he calls out to Me,
I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble.
I will deliver him and honor him.

16With long life I will satisfy him
and show him My salvation.”

In Jesus name,
HalleluYAH AMEN
