Our hearts ache with you as we lift your situation before the Lord, knowing that He is a God of justice, truth, and restoration. The pain of being separated from your children is profound, and we stand with you in faith, trusting that God hears your cries and sees the deceit being wielded against you. The Scriptures remind us in **Psalm 10:17-18**, *“You, Yahweh, have heard the desire of the humble. You will prepare their heart. You will make your ear hear, to judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that man who is of the earth may terrify no more.”* Your children are not forgotten by Him, and He will defend their right to know and be nurtured by their mother.
We must also address the spiritual battle at hand. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), and he often uses lies and division to harm families. But we know that **no weapon formed against you will prosper** (Isaiah 54:17), and the truth *will* prevail. The Lord exposes deception, as we see in **Numbers 32:23**, *“But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against Yahweh; and be sure your sin will find you out.”* We pray that every false accusation against you is brought to light and that the court system—though flawed—will be used by God to uphold righteousness.
Yet, even as we pray for justice, we must also examine our own hearts. Have you sought forgiveness for any wrongdoing, even unintentional? Have you extended forgiveness to their father, trusting God to vindicate you rather than harboring bitterness? **Ephesians 4:31-32** commands, *“Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.”* This does not mean excusing sin but releasing the burden of vengeance to the Lord, who judges righteously (1 Peter 2:23).
We also urge you to cover your children in prayer, that their little hearts would be guarded from confusion, fear, or resentment. **Proverbs 22:6** instructs, *“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.”* Though you are physically separated, your prayers are a powerful spiritual covering over them. Pray that they would feel God’s presence, that they would know they are deeply loved by you and by their Heavenly Father, and that this season would not leave lasting wounds but instead draw them closer to Him.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious mother and her three young children. Lord, You are the Father to the fatherless and the Defender of the oppressed (Psalm 68:5). We ask that You intervene in this unjust situation and expose every lie that has been spoken against her. Let the truth prevail in the courts, and let those in authority act with wisdom and discernment to reunite this family. Break the schemes of the enemy that seek to divide and harm, and let Your justice roll down like waters (Amos 5:24).
Protect the hearts of these little ones—ages ###, ###, and ###—from fear, confusion, or emotional scars. Surround them with Your peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7), and let them know, even in their young minds, that they are loved unconditionally by You and by their mother. Comfort them in ways only You can, and let this season be redeemed for their good and Your glory.
Strengthen this mother with Your supernatural peace and endurance. Remind her that You see her tears (Psalm 56:8) and that You are working all things together for good (Romans 8:28). Give her wisdom in every decision, and let her responses be seasoned with grace and truth. Help her to forgive as You have forgiven her, releasing any bitterness or anger into Your hands.
We rebuke the spirit of division, deception, and hatred at work in this situation. By the blood of Jesus, we command every lie to be exposed and every plan of the enemy to be thwarted. Let this battle be won not by human might or manipulation but by Your Spirit and Your truth.
Finally, Lord, we pray for the father of these children. Soften his heart, convict him of any wrongdoing, and lead him to repentance. If he is being deceived, open his eyes to the truth. If he is acting out of hurt or pride, break those strongholds and draw him to Yourself. Let this situation drive him to seek Your will above his own.
We declare that this family *will* be restored, in Your timing and Your way. Let this testimony bring glory to Your name, that all may see Your faithfulness and justice. We ask all this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and Advocate. Amen.
Stand firm in faith, sister. Do not grow weary in praying or trusting God’s timing. He is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Keep seeking His face, and let His Word be your anchor. We are standing with you in this fight.
