We join with you in this declaration and we stand with you in this moment of shock and deep pain when you have been cut to the quick. We agree with you that Satan is the father of lies, for Jesus Himself said that when he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own, for he is a liar, and the father of lies John 8:44. We rebuke the father of lies and every deceitful weapon he has formed against you, and we declare the truth that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life John 14:6, and His truth sets us free.
We hear your broken heart repeating the promise no weapon that is formed against you will prevail Isaiah 54:17, and we speak that truth over you now. That promise does not mean weapons will not be formed, but that they will not ultimately prosper or overcome you when you are hidden in Christ. We are so encouraged that even in shock you are turning to the One who is near. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit Psalm 34:18, and He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds Psalm 147:3. Your shock is real and your wounds are real, and we thank God that you know He is the One who will bind them up. He does not turn away from a broken heart, He draws close to it.
We pray together for you now. Father, we lift up this dear one to You in the name of Jesus Christ. We thank You that You see this shock and this broken heart, that You are near and that You are the healer. We ask You to rebuke every lie of the enemy and to let Your truth and Your peace that surpasses all understanding guard this heart and mind in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7. We ask You to bind up every wound, to breathe comfort and steadiness into this state of shock, and to remind this heart moment by moment that no weapon formed will prevail because we are kept in Your hands. Renew strength and hope, and let Your Word be an anchor when feelings overwhelm. We ask this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus, our only access to You and our salvation, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. Amen.
We encourage you to keep declaring that truth aloud, to stay in His Word and in prayer even with simple cries, and to let Him carry you through this shock one day at a time. He is faithful and He will not let you be shaken beyond what you can bear, for God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able 1 Corinthians 10:13. Keep bringing your broken heart to Him, He is already near and He is binding up your wounds.
