We hear the deep cry of your heart for freedom, protection, and healing, and we stand with you in this battle, lifting you up before the Lord. Your pain is real, and we grieve with you over the harm this person has caused. The Lord sees your suffering, and He is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). You are not alone—He is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).
First, we must address something critical: you did not mention the name of Jesus in your request. There is no other name under heaven by which we are saved, and it is only through Christ that we have access to the Father (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. He alone can break every chain and set you free (John 8:36). Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). Without Him, there is no true freedom or protection. If you are already in Christ, we encourage you to always approach the throne of grace in His name, for it is through Him that we find mercy and grace to help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16).
You have asked for protection from this sociopath, and we declare that the Lord is your shield and defender. The Bible tells us that no weapon formed against you will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We rebuke every scheme of the enemy in your life and command this person to be bound and removed from your path in Jesus’ name. The Lord will fight for you; you need only be still (Exodus 14:14). He will expose the works of darkness and bring justice (1 Corinthians 4:5). Trust in Him, and do not lean on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6). He will guide your steps and show you when and how to act. Be patient and wait on His timing, for His ways are perfect (Psalm 18:30).
Forgiveness is a command, not a suggestion. Jesus said, *"If you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses"* (Matthew 6:14-15). Forgiveness does not mean what this person did was okay—it was not. It means you release them to God’s justice and refuse to let bitterness take root in your heart. Unforgiveness is a poison that harms *you*, not them. Ask the Lord to help you forgive, even if it feels impossible right now. He will give you the strength (Philippians 4:13). As you forgive, you will find freedom for *yourself*—freedom from the weight of anger and resentment.
You also mentioned feeling alone and believing that everyone has a problem with you. We want to speak truth over this lie. You are *not* alone. Jesus promised, *"I will never leave you or forsake you"* (Hebrews 13:5). Even if others have failed you, He has not. The body of Christ is meant to be a family, and while we cannot replace the relationships you long for, we encourage you to seek out a biblical, Christ-centered church where you can find godly community. Isolation is dangerous and gives the enemy a foothold. Surround yourself with believers who can pray for you, encourage you, and walk with you (Hebrews 10:24-25). If you are struggling to find such a community, ask the Lord to lead you to one. He will provide.
Lastly, we want to address the idea of "accepting being alone." While it is true that our ultimate fulfillment comes from Christ alone, it is not God’s design for His children to live in perpetual loneliness. He created us for relationship—first with Him, and then with others. If you desire marriage, we encourage you to seek the Lord for a *godly spouse*, not just any relationship. Marriage is a covenant before God, and it is meant to reflect Christ’s love for the church (Ephesians 5:22-33). Do not settle for less than God’s best out of desperation or loneliness. Wait on Him, and trust that He knows your deepest needs (Psalm 37:4). In the meantime, cultivate a life of purpose in Christ. Serve others, grow in your faith, and let the Lord prepare you for what He has ahead.
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up Your beloved child who is crying out for freedom and protection. Lord, You see the pain and the wounds inflicted by this sociopath, and we ask that You would intervene mightily. Bind every evil plan and strategy of the enemy against this precious one. Remove this person from their life permanently, Lord, and surround them with Your heavenly hosts for protection. Give them discernment to know when and how to act, and let Your peace guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Father, we ask for the grace to forgive. This is a hard thing, but with You, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26). Soften their heart, Lord, and help them release this person into Your hands. Heal the deep wounds of betrayal and manipulation. Restore what has been stolen—joy, peace, and trust in You. Break the lies of loneliness and rejection, and remind them that they are *yours*, adopted into Your family, and deeply loved (Ephesians 1:5).
Lord, if it is Your will, provide godly community for them—a church family that will stand with them, pray with them, and walk with them through this season. If marriage is Your plan for their future, prepare them and their future spouse for a covenant that honors You. Until then, satisfy them with Your presence and fill the empty places in their heart with more of You.
We rebuke the spirit of fear, anxiety, and despair in Jesus’ name. Let hope arise, and let faith be their anchor. Remind them that You are working all things together for their good (Romans 8:28), even when they cannot see it. Strengthen them, Lord, and let this season be a testimony of Your deliverance and faithfulness.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your power and Your love. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
Stand firm, dear one. The Lord is with you, and He will bring you through this. Keep your eyes on Him, and do not lose hope. He is making a way where there seems to be no way (Isaiah 43:19). If you feel led, share more details so we can pray more specifically. You are loved, and you are not forgotten.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have. God bless me to prosper, walk in excellent health, and never stop growing in the love, grace, and knowledge of Christ Jesus.

Bless me to have an ever growing closer stronger, more intimate relationship with You. Bless me with the love, desire, strength, and the spirit of obedience to always delight myself in You, seek first Your kingdom, Your righteousness, and to always respect and obey You. Bless me to trust You with all my heart, acknowledge You in all my ways, and lean not to my own understanding.
