We hear the deep pain and heaviness in your heart and we are lifting you up before the Lord together. Feeling like God Himself is against you and that everyone around you, even your own mother and family, has become an enemy is an agonizing place to be, and we grieve with you over the mental harassment and rejection you have endured in your own home.

We want to gently correct the thought that God is punishing you very badly in His wrath for what you did three years ago. If you have repented and turned to God, His Word gives us a very different picture of His heart toward His children. The wrath of God for sin was poured out fully on Jesus Christ on the cross for all who believe in Him. There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit Romans 8:1. The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness Psalm 103:8. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities Psalm 103:10. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness 1 John 1:9. What you did three years ago, whatever it was, can be fully forgiven if you confess it honestly to God and turn from it. God does discipline those He loves as a Father, not to destroy us but to restore us, For whom the Lord loves, he disciplines Hebrews 12:6, but His discipline is not a vindictive, unending punishment that makes everyone hate you. If that sin is still weighing on your conscience, we encourage you to bring it fully to Him today.

We also noticed your request speaks of God but does not mention Jesus Christ, and we must lovingly share that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God and peace with Him. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6. 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 Acts 4:12. To be forgiven and to know God is not angry with you, you must place your faith in Jesus Christ, believing He died for your sins and rose again, and call upon His name. That is the only way to move from fearing His wrath to resting in His mercy.

Regarding your family, we believe you that this is painful and real. Your description of your sister finding satisfaction in provoking you and your parents not listening or believing you is very hard to bear, especially when you cannot escape and must live there every day. You are right that the Bible says all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God Romans 3:23, and no one in a family is without sin. God commands children to Honor your father and your mother Exodus 20:12, but He also commands fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath Ephesians 6:4 and tells parents not to irritate their children, so that they won’t be discouraged Colossians 3:21. A toxic, harassing environment is not God’s design for the home. While we encourage you to honor your parents, that does not mean you must accept ongoing mental abuse without seeking help. We encourage you to not repay evil for evil, but to love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you Matthew 5:44. We also encourage you, as much as it depends on you, be at peace with all men Romans 12:18, which sometimes means not reacting when your sister seeks a reaction, and seeking wisdom to set quiet, respectful boundaries.

We want to pray for you together in Jesus' name.

Father, we come to You in the name of Jesus Christ and lift up this dear one who feels crushed under guilt and surrounded by enemies in their own home. Lord, first we ask that You reveal Your mercy and forgiveness to them. If there is unconfessed sin from three years ago, lead them to confess it fully to You and to receive Your cleansing and peace, and help them to know that You have removed their transgressions as far as the east is from the west Psalm 103:12. Take away the lie that You are punishing them without mercy, and show them that You are a compassionate Father who delights in forgiveness. Draw them to salvation through Jesus alone. Lord, we also ask for Your protection and comfort in this home. You see every harsh word, every passive aggressive wound, every time they have felt unheard and treated as a problem. Comfort their heart, give them strength not to return evil for evil, and guard their mind from despair. Soften the hearts of their mother, sister, and parents, and convict them where they have been harsh or dismissive. Provide this dear one with godly counsel, a faithful pastor or mature believer and a church family where they are heard and supported, and where Your Word is taught faithfully. If it is Your will, open a door for a safer and more peaceful living situation in Your timing, and give them wisdom for each day they must remain. Help them to keep their eyes on You and to trust that You will work all things together for good for those who love You Romans 8:28. We ask all this in the precious and only saving name of Jesus Christ, amen.

We have read what you shared and we are so sorry you are carrying this. Feeling like everyone has turned against you in your own home, and feeling unheard even when you try to explain what is happening, is exhausting and lonely. It makes sense you would feel overwhelmed and wonder if God is punishing you.

Living day after day with criticism, passive aggressive behavior, and being treated as the problem can wear down anyone's sense of worth and leave you questioning what is real and whether you are at fault for everything. That does not mean you are the problem or that God is using your family to punish you for something from three years ago. We believe God sees you, cares about your pain, and is not against you.

We know you said you cannot escape right now, and that makes it even harder. One step that can help when home feels unsafe emotionally is to identify one safe person outside the house you can talk with honestly and regularly. That might be a pastor, a counselor, a trusted relative or older friend. Having someone who listens without taking sides can help you sort through what is happening and think about healthy boundaries and next options. If you ever feel unsafe, please reach out right away to a trusted person or for professional support alongside prayer.

Father, we bring our friend to You and ask You to show Your care and nearness in this home. Give wisdom, protection, and moments of peace each day, and lead to safe, wise help and counsel. Help our friend to know Your love is steady and to find direction for what to do next. In Jesus' name, amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your sorrow has been laid before the Lord and it is a heavy burden you carry, to feel that the wrath of God is upon you and that even those of your own household have turned against you.

Hear first the word which the Lord Himself has given for such a soul as yours, There is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. It cannot be that there is no forgiveness, for Jesus died, the Just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God. The promise stands sure, I, even I, am He that blotteth out thy transgressions for Mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. Let no man suppose that God will twice exact the penalty of one sin. If your sin was laid upon Christ, it shall not be laid again upon you. What you feel as punishment may be the chastening of a Father who loves you, or the conviction of conscience which would drive you to the fountain opened for sin, but it is not the wrath of a judge against one for whom Christ has died. The wrath was borne upon the cross, and now there remaineth forgiveness, full and complete, not because your sin was little, but because His mercy is great and He forgiveth for His own sake.

Do you tremble and shake for fear, and with a penitent heart desire forgiveness. Then come at once with confession, without guile and without excuse. The work of the Son in removing guilt is linked with the work of the Spirit in removing guile. The pardoned man does not try to make his sins appear less heinous than they are, nor to set his virtues in a brighter light than truth will allow, but he confesses all and humbly casts himself upon mercy. If you have lived under a terrible sense of guilt for these three years, take that guilt to Christ now. Believe on Him and you shall know that pardon is not a matter of hope but a matter of fact, and that He not only forgave at the first but continueth daily to forgive.

Concerning your family, the Lord knoweth how bitter it is to dwell where you are not heard and where you are treated as the problem. It is a sore trial to be harassed and provoked, and to have your words disbelieved while another is always thought to be in the right. Yet hear the counsel of Scripture, be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Wherever forgiveness of sin comes, there comes with it a turning from sin and a desire to be rid of sin, and there springs up also a deep sense of gratitude which maketh the heart willing to forgive as it hath been forgiven. You cannot change the heart of your sister or compel your parents to see as you see, but you can commit your cause to Him who judgeth righteously. Seek not to return provocation for provocation, nor to live for a reaction, but commit your way unto the Lord in meekness and truth. If any will not hear you in the house, seek the counsel of a faithful pastor or some mature believer who may hear you with impartial love and give you wise guidance, for the Lord often raiseth up such helps for those that are bowed down. He upholdeth all that fall and raiseth up all those that be bowed down, and He will hear the cry of them that fear Him.

I pray that the Lord will give you a clear sense of His perfect forgiveness through the blood of Christ, that this fear which hath torment may be taken away and be replaced by that holy fear which cometh from pardon and which is reverence and love and obedience. May He lift from you the weight of these three years and give you a new heart that loathes sin and loves holiness, and may He give you grace to endure in your home with patience, to speak the truth in love, and to find in Him a refuge when you feel you cannot escape. May He open the eyes of your household to act with justice and kindness, and may He provide for you godly fellowship and daily strength till He makes a way for you in His providence.

Cast your burden upon Christ now, and rest in this sure word, There is forgiveness with Him.

[Chrysostom]

What you have described is a heavy burden to carry every day, to feel that God Himself is against you for a past sin, and that your own home has become a place of strife where you are not heard and not believed. I have heard your cry and I want to answer you with truth and with hope.

First, about the fear that God is punishing you very badly for what you did three years ago. God does punish sin, and His punishment is real, but His mercy is greater. He threatened Nineveh with destruction not because He desired to destroy them, but so that by fear they might turn and He might show mercy. Where faith in Jesus Christ comes, grace comes, and where grace is there is forgiveness, and where forgiveness is there is no longer punishment standing against you. If you have turned from that sin and confessed it to God and trusted in Christ alone for salvation, you are not under His wrath for it any longer. Righteousness comes through faith, and you become an heir of the promise not through your own perfection but through His forgiveness. The enemy will tell you that God is still counting that old debt against you, but the cross says the debt is paid. If there is still something you need to confess or make right, do it plainly before God today, and then rest in His promise to forgive. Do not live as if you must pay forever for what Christ has already borne.

Second, about your home. What you describe in your sister, wanting a reaction from you, feeling satisfaction when you are broken and provoked, and the pain of parents who do not listen and treat you as the problem, is a deep wound. Scripture is true when it says all have sinned, and it is also true that to harm one of your own household and family is a grievous thing. The devil wages war against man, but a person who harms his own kindred does not even reverence nature. Your pain at not being believed is real, and God does hear you even when your family does not.

The passion of wrath is fierce, fiercer than any flame. It overturns houses and destroys fellowship, and it feeds on memory when we let the sun go down upon it. The way to muzzle this wild beast in your own heart, and not to be consumed by it, is to remember the judgment to come and the mercy you have received. The Lord says forgive and you shall be forgiven. This does not mean what is happening is right or that you should pretend it does not hurt. It means you refuse to let their wrath become your wrath. Your sister seeks a reaction. Do not give her the reaction that feeds the strife. Answer quietly when you can, step away when you need to, and do not return harsh words for harsh words. This is not weakness, it is strength and watchfulness.

You say you cannot escape and must live there every day. Like Moses who left Egypt not fearing the wrath of the king because he endured as seeing Him who is invisible, you too can endure by looking to God who is present though unseen. He sees what is done in secret, He knows the mental harassment you describe, the passive aggression and the malice, and He will be your defender. This does not mean you must face everything alone. Seek a wise and faithful pastor or an older godly person in the church, tell them plainly what you endure, and ask for counsel and prayer and help in setting healthy boundaries. Keep praying daily, read the Scriptures, and ask God to keep your own heart sober and free from bitterness.

You are not forgotten and you are not alone. God is not your enemy if you are in Christ. He is your Father, and He invites you to cast your anxieties on Him. Anxieties can be more grievous than stones, wearing down the soul day after day, but He can give you peace even while you wait for your situation to change.

I pray for you now that God would lift this sense of condemnation for the past, assure you of forgiveness through Jesus, comfort you in this house of conflict, give you wisdom to respond without sin, soften the hearts of your mother and father and sister, and open a way for you to live in peace, whether through reconciliation or through a godly path to a healthier place to live. Keep seeking Him, keep doing what is right, and trust that He who sees the invisible will not forsake you.
