If you say so I don't believe no more

Beloved of All
How is God loving and caring when all he gives is things against me like revealing wrong people where I'm at? I'm not going to church today either.
 
We hear the pain and frustration in your words, and we want you to know that your feelings are valid—it’s okay to wrestle with doubt and anger when life feels overwhelming. But we must gently remind you that God’s love is not measured by our circumstances, nor is it dependent on our emotions. The Bible tells us, *"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you," says Yahweh, "thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future."* (Jeremiah 29:11). Even when we don’t understand His ways, His heart toward us is always good.

You mention that God has revealed "wrong people" in your life—this may be His protection, not punishment. Sometimes the Lord exposes what is harmful so we can walk away from it. *"The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?"* (Psalm 27:1). If these people are toxic or leading you away from Him, He may be shielding you from greater harm. But if you’re interpreting His guidance as hostility, we encourage you to ask Him for clarity. His corrections are not meant to break us, but to refine us.

Skipping church is understandable in moments of hurt, but isolation can deepen despair. *"Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good works, not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching."* (Hebrews 10:24-25). The body of Christ is meant to carry us when we’re weak. Instead of pulling away, could you reach out to a trusted believer who can pray with you and remind you of God’s faithfulness?

Most critically, we must address the root of your statement: *"If you say so I don’t believe no more."* Faith isn’t about blind obedience—it’s about trust in a God who proved His love by sending His Son to die for us while we were still sinners (Romans 5:8). If you’ve reached a point where you no longer believe, we urge you to bring that honesty before the Lord. *"I do believe, but help my unbelief!"* (Mark 9:24). Doubt doesn’t disqualify you; it’s often the first step toward deeper faith.

Let us pray with you now:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our brother/sister who is struggling to see Your love in this season. Lord, You are near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and we ask You to draw near now. Reveal Yourself in ways that can’t be denied—through Your Word, through the kindness of others, through moments of unexpected peace. Forgive us for the times we’ve doubted Your goodness, and help us to trust that even in hardship, You are working for our good (Romans 8:28).

We rebuke the lie that You are against us, for we know that nothing can separate us from Your love (Romans 8:38-39). Where there is bitterness, bring healing. Where there is confusion, bring clarity. And if there are relationships or habits in this person’s life that are pulling them away from You, expose them with Your light and give the strength to walk away.

We ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus, the One who overcame the world (John 16:33) and who intercedes for us even now (Hebrews 7:25). Amen.

Friend, we don’t know the specifics of your situation, but we know this: God is not your enemy. He may be allowing hardship to turn your heart back to Him, not to push you away. Will you take a moment to ask Him, *"Lord, what are You trying to show me?"* And if you’re open, we’d love to hear more so we can pray more specifically. You’re not alone in this.
 
We're here with you, friend, and we want you to know that God is too. It's okay to feel hurt and confused when life doesn't go as planned, but remember, God's love for you is constant, even when our circumstances aren't. He's not the one revealing wrong people to harm you, but to protect you. Sometimes, He exposes harmful situations so we can walk away from them.

We understand that it's tough to go to church when you're feeling this way, but remember, the body of Christ is there to support you, especially when you're weak. Instead of pulling away, could you reach out to a trusted believer who can pray with you and remind you of God's faithfulness?

We also want to encourage you to be honest with God about your doubts. It's okay to say, "Lord, I believe, but help my unbelief." Doubt doesn't disqualify you; it's often the first step towards deeper faith. Let's trust that even in hardship, God is working for our good.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come to you with our brother/sister who's struggling to see your love right now. Lord, you're near to the brokenhearted, so we ask you to draw near now. Reveal yourself in ways that can't be denied. Forgive us for the times we've doubted your goodness, and help us to trust that even in hardship, you're working for our good.

We rebuke the lie that you're against us, for we know nothing can separate us from your love. Where there's bitterness, bring healing. Where there's confusion, bring clarity. And if there are relationships or habits pulling them away from you, expose them with your light and give the strength to walk away.

We ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus, the One who overcame the world and who intercedes for us even now. Amen.

Friend, God is not your enemy. He may be allowing hardship to turn your heart back to Him, not to push you away. Would you take a moment to ask Him, "Lord, what are You trying to show me?" If you're open, we'd love to hear more so we can pray more specifically. You're not alone in this.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
