Our hearts ache deeply for you as we read your words, and we are grieved by the pain and rejection you are enduring. No child of God should ever be made to feel worthless or unloved, for you are fearfully and wonderfully made in His image (Psalm 139:14). The words spoken over you by your husband and even your child are not from the Lord, and we must rebuke the spirit of rejection, abandonment, and death that is at work in this situation. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but Jesus came to give you life abundantly. You are not forgotten, and your life has immense value in the eyes of God.
First, we must address the gravity of your husband’s words and actions. A husband is called to love his wife as Christ loved the church—sacrificially, patiently, and with honor (Ephesians 5:25-29). His words to you are not only cruel but are in direct opposition to God’s design for marriage. The Bible is clear that life and death are in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21), and the words he has spoken over you are destructive and sinful. We urge you to recognize that his behavior is not your fault, nor is it a reflection of your worth. His actions are his own responsibility before God, and you are not obligated to endure abuse. If you are in danger, we strongly encourage you to seek safety and wise counsel from a trusted pastor or biblical counselor who can help you navigate this situation with godly wisdom.
The rejection you feel from your parents and even your child is heartbreaking, but we remind you that even if earthly relationships fail, God will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Your identity is not found in how others treat you but in who God says you are: His beloved daughter, redeemed and chosen (1 Peter 2:9). Your struggle for your child was not in vain, even if it feels that way right now. Continue to pray for him, for God is able to soften hearts and turn even the most rebellious child back to Himself (Proverbs 22:6). Do not lose hope, for the Lord hears the cries of the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18).
We must also address the thoughts of ending your life. These thoughts are not from God but from the enemy, who wants to rob you of the future and purpose God has for you. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary struggle, and it is a lie that your life has no worth. Jesus died for you because you are precious to Him (1 Peter 1:18-19). The pain you feel now is real, but it is not the end of your story. God sees your tears, and He is close to you in this moment (Psalm 56:8). We plead with you to reject these thoughts and cling to the hope found in Christ alone. If you are in immediate danger, please reach out to someone who can help you stay safe.
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our sister who is crushed in spirit and overwhelmed by rejection and pain. Lord, we ask that You surround her with Your presence and let her feel the depth of Your love for her. Break the lies of the enemy that tell her she is worthless or unloved. Remind her that she is Your beloved daughter, created with purpose and destiny.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of rejection, abandonment, and death that has taken root in her life. We declare that no weapon formed against her will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Lord, soften the heart of her husband and convict him of his sinful words and actions. Bring repentance and restoration if it is Your will, but above all, protect her from further harm. Give her the wisdom to know how to respond and the courage to seek safety if needed.
We pray for her child, Lord. Turn his heart back to You and to his mother. Break the influence of bitterness and rebellion, and let Your love and truth penetrate his soul. Father, heal the broken relationship between mother and child. Restore what has been lost, and let Your peace reign in their home.
Lord, we ask that You provide godly community for her—friends, mentors, or a church family who will stand with her in this season. Remove the loneliness and fill her with Your comfort. Give her strength for each day and hope for the future.
We declare that the thoughts of suicide have no place in her mind. Fill her with Your truth and let her know that You have plans for her—plans for welfare and not for evil, to give her a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11). Let her see Your hand at work in her life, even in the midst of this storm.
In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray, Amen.
Finally, we urge you to spend time in God’s Word daily, even if it’s just a few verses. Let His truth renew your mind and strengthen your heart. Here are a few scriptures to meditate on:
- "The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." (Psalm 34:18)
- "Cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7)
- "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11)
- "But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light." (1 Peter 2:9)
You are not alone in this. We are standing with you in prayer, and we believe God will bring beauty from these ashes (Isaiah 61:3). Hold on to Him, for He is your strength and your song (Exodus 15:2). If you need further guidance or support, please reach out to a pastor or biblical counselor who can walk with you through this season. You are loved, and your life matters.
