I hate god

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.
We hear the raw, unfiltered pain in your words, and we want you to know that your anguish matters. What you’re feeling is real, and it’s okay to bring it before God, even in anger. The Bible doesn’t shy away from this kind of honesty. In fact, many of the psalms cry out in despair, questioning God’s presence in the midst of suffering. Psalm 13:1-2 says, "How long, Yahweh? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart every day?" You are not alone in feeling this way, and God can handle your anger. He is big enough to meet you in it.
But we must also gently challenge the words you’ve spoken about God. Calling Him "evil" and "wicked" goes against what Scripture reveals about His character. God is holy, just, and loving (1 John 4:8), and while He allows suffering in this broken world, He does not delight in it. He entered into our pain through Jesus Christ, who suffered and died for us so that we might have hope. Jesus Himself cried out on the cross, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Matthew 27:46), showing that even in the darkest moments, God does not abandon us. If you feel abandoned, it is not because God is cruel, it is because we live in a fallen world where sin and evil still have power. But God has overcome the world (John 16:33), and He is working even when we cannot see it.
You also mention hating God’s people and your enemies. The Bible is clear that we are to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us (Matthew 5:44). Hatred only breeds more pain, both for them and for you. We don’t know the specifics of what you’re going through, but we do know that bitterness can poison the soul. Hebrews 12:15 warns, "Looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it." If you’re being tormented, we grieve with you, but we also urge you to surrender that pain to God. He is the one who fights for you (Exodus 14:14), and vengeance belongs to Him (Romans 12:19).
Most importantly, we must address the foundation of your relationship with God. If you do not know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, then your anger toward God may stem from a misunderstanding of who He is. God is not just a distant being, He is a Father who sent His Son to die for you so that you could be reconciled to Him (John 3:16). Salvation comes only through Jesus (Acts 4:12), and without Him, we are separated from God by sin. If you have never surrendered your life to Christ, we urge you to do so. Repent of your sins, believe in Jesus’ death and resurrection, and invite Him into your heart. Only then can you begin to experience the peace and healing that God offers.
Let us pray for you now:
"Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our brother/sister who is in deep pain. Lord, You see the anger, the hurt, the sense of abandonment. We ask that You would meet them in this place of despair. Soften their heart, Lord, and help them to see You not as an enemy, but as the One who suffered for them. We rebuke the spirit of bitterness and hatred that has taken root, and we ask that You would replace it with Your love. Father, if they do not know You, we pray that You would reveal Yourself to them in a powerful way. Draw them to Jesus, the only One who can save and heal. Surround them with Your presence, Lord, and remind them that they are never alone. We ask for Your peace to guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen."
We encourage you to bring your pain to God, even if it’s messy. He can handle it. If you’re willing, find a trusted believer or a biblical church where you can share your struggles. You don’t have to carry this alone. And if you’ve never truly given your life to Christ, we urge you to do so today. Jesus is the only way to true peace and healing. Would you consider praying this prayer with us?
"Lord Jesus, I admit that I am a sinner in need of Your forgiveness. I believe that You died on the cross for my sins and rose again. I repent of my sins and ask You to come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. Help me to follow You and to trust You, even in my pain. In Your name, I pray. Amen."

We hear so much pain in your words, and we're not going to try to talk you out of it or explain it away. When you feel tormented and alone, when it seems like God is just watching and doing nothing while your enemies have their way, the anger and the hatred make sense. They're the honest cry of someone who feels abandoned.
So many of us have been in that place where the distance between "God is good" and "this is my life" feels too wide to bridge. The hurt underneath the anger, the fear of being left broken and unheard, that's real. Anger is often what we feel when something deeper is happening: hurt, frustration, or fear that no one sees us and nothing will ever change.
We're not here to defend God to you right now. We're just here to sit in this with you and not look away from what you're carrying. You've been clear about how you feel, and we don't believe God is threatened by your honesty. People in Scripture shook their fists and demanded answers, and God stayed close.
If you have one person you trust, maybe a pastor, a counselor, or a friend who won't rush to fix you with easy answers, we'd gently encourage you to reach out. Not to get a lecture, but just so someone knows you're barely holding on. You shouldn't have to carry this hatred and this loneliness all by yourself.
We're praying for you, not praying at you, and here's what we're asking:
Jesus, you see this person right where they are, furious and heartbroken and feeling completely alone. We're not asking you to explain yourself or defend your name. We're just asking you to draw near in ways they can actually feel. Bring someone safe into their life who will listen without judging. In the middle of this darkness, give them even the smallest sign that they're not invisible to you. Amen.

Your words are a broken bone crying out in pain, and though they curse, they are yet a prayer. I have known that same bitter gall when heaven seemed brass and my enemies triumphed. But hear me: the Healer of broken hearts has chosen One whose own heart was broken for sinners, Jesus died of a broken heart for such as you. Your hatred cannot shut His mercy; His cross stands in the very teeth of your enmity. Submit to God’s righteousness, for He is not hard, but gives all for nothing through Christ. Cease this warfare and let Him plead your cause; the silence you mistake for cruelty is the stillness before He binds up your wounds. Every broken bone may yet become a mouth to praise Him. Come now, with your bitterness, and let the Crucified turn your hate to love.

Your cry is one of deep affliction, and the fire of your anger burns against God and those who torment you. But consider this: the devil never despairs of our destruction, yet we so quickly despair of our own salvation. He would have you call God evil and all talk; that is the accuser’s work, slandering God to man from the beginning, whispering that He takes no care. Yet God’s long-suffering is the very root of His love. Remember Jesus Christ, of the seed of David, raised from the dead: He learned obedience through what He suffered, and being made perfect, He became the source of salvation to all who obey Him. If the Son gained obedience from sufferings, shall we not also? God does not abandon you; He endures your rage to draw you toward endurance.
You hate His people and your enemies, but mark how love is not easily provoked, how it thinks no evil. The Apostle Paul, when wronged, did not roar in anger but prayed, “Lord, lay not this sin to their charge.” His face shone like an angel’s, for where wrath dwells, the Holy Spirit does not. No matter how just your words, if you speak with wrath, you ruin all. Boldness of speech is not passion; it is gentleness. Even if after much labor you see no change in your enemies, if you remain gentle, you receive the deliverer’s reward, and all praise passes to God.
Do not let the devil, who never gives up hoping for your destruction, persuade you that your case is hopeless. God’s mercy is inexpressible: He saved Paul, the chief of sinners, as an example of all long-suffering, so that none might despair. Your prayer, though now it is a shout of pain, can yet be turned. Prayer mightily contributes to our deliverance, and we give thanks not only in calm but in the storm, for the God of mercies is able to raise you up even from this death of soul. Do not go away provoked, but with patience return, and you will find His long-suffering your healing.

Beloved of All
That is a raw and honest cry, and I am not going to pretend it shocks me. God already knows every word of it, and He is not pacing the heavens in panic over your fury. He invites exactly that kind of bluntness. When we try to dress up our prayers with polite religious language, we are only fooling ourselves. So say it to Him directly, even if it comes out as a shout of hatred. He can take it, and He would rather have your honest rage than empty flattery.
You feel abandoned and tormented, and that is a heavy place. I will not give you cheap answers, because I do not know every reason God allows what He does. The whys are often hidden from us, and anyone who claims to have a neat explanation is reaching beyond what has been revealed. But what I can tell you is that God’s silence does not prove He is absent or uncaring. Scripture is full of people who stood in the wreckage of their lives and screamed at God, yet He kept them in His grip. Even when Jerusalem was reduced to smoking rubble and God Himself had brought the judgment, the prophet still looked at the desolation and said, “Great is your faithfulness.” That seemed insane, because the city’s fall was actually proof that God had kept His word. Faithfulness can feel terrifying if we are on the side that receives His discipline, but it is still faithfulness. His mercies are not gone; they are new every morning, even if our eyes are too swollen with weeping to see them.
I hear you saying you hate His people and your enemies. That part I understand painfully. When you are ground down by others, when they mock and your soul feels hunted, the Psalms give voice to prayers that call for God to break the teeth of the wicked. David often asked God to destroy those who came against him, and he held nothing back. Yet Jesus later taught us to bless those who curse us. I am not telling you to force a smile and pretend everything is fine. But if you keep feeding that hatred, it will eat you alive long before it touches them. You can pour out every bitter detail to God, asking Him to take up your cause. He is the one who has said, “Vengeance is mine.” Let Him deal with it. He may not move on your timetable, but He sees every cruelty and will settle every account perfectly.
Right now it feels like He is all talk, like He promised help but left you to drown. I recognize that desperation. The truth is, God has often allowed His people to be vastly outnumbered and oppressed, not because He is weak, but because He wanted them to discover that their strength is in Him alone. When they finally cried out, He raised up deliverers. I do not know what deliverance will look like for you, but I know God is more merciful than man. David once chose to fall directly into God’s hands for judgment, rather than into human hands, because he knew God’s mercy. Even His anger toward us is measured, and His purpose is to draw us back, not to destroy. If you are breathing, His patience is still at work.
So do not try to clean up your language before you speak to Him. Go into your room, or wherever you can be alone, and let it all out. Tell Him He seems evil to you. Tell Him you hate the way He runs the world. Then, when your voice gives out, ask Him to show you what you cannot see. Not to explain everything, but to give you just enough light for the next step. He does not reject the broken; He draws near to those who have nothing left but a fractured word. I am praying that in the middle of this darkness, you will discover that His faithfulness is not a theory, it is a person who entered our suffering and did not stay silent.
