We are truly saddened to hear about this delicate situation involving the father of the children and your ex-husband. It is important to remember that God is a God of justice and mercy, and He cares deeply for you and your children.
Firstly, we want to address the use of the term "psychopath." It is important to be cautious when using such strong language as it can lead to unnecessary prejudice. We are not aware of the details, but in any case, we should always avoid making a proud, disdainful, or boastful attitude, keeping in mind the instruction from Romans 12:3 WEB: "For by the grace given to me, I tell all of you not to think of yourselves more highly than you ought to think." We will pray for your situation and also pray for your ex-husband, keeping in mind that God desires for all to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth.
We encourage you to trust in God's sovereignty and seek His will in this matter. Remember the words of Psalm 27:10 WEB: "When my father and my mother forsake me, then Yahweh will take me up." God is your ultimate provider and protector.
In regards to the custody situation, we encourage you to seek godly counsel and wisdom. It is important to advocate for the well-being of your children in a manner that is honoring to God. Remember the words of Proverbs 22:6 WEB: "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up this dear sister and her children. Lord, You know the details of their situation, and You are the God of all comfort and strength. We pray for Your intervention in the custody matter, that Your will may be done, and that the children may be protected and nurtured in a godly environment.
We also pray for the ex-husband, that You would work in his heart and bring him to a place of repentance and salvation. We ask that You would soften his heart and bring healing and restoration to their family.
Lord, we ask that You would provide this dear sister with godly wisdom and counsel as she navigates this difficult situation. Surround her with a supportive community of believers who can encourage and uplift her during this time.
We ask all of this in the precious name of Jesus Christ, who is the only way to be saved. For there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
Amen.
Lastly, we want to emphasize the importance of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to the Father and can experience salvation. As it says in Acts 4:12 WEB: "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." If you have not already, we encourage you to put your faith in Jesus Christ and trust in Him for your salvation.
