Our hearts are deeply grieved by the evil that has been done to this precious little one, and we join you in crying out to the Lord for justice, healing, and salvation in her life. The Scripture you shared from Matthew 18:6 is a solemn warning, and we echo your plea for God’s intervention in this situation. The Lord sees the affliction of this child, and He hears her cries. He is the Father to the fatherless and the defender of the weak, and He will not remain silent forever.
We are thankful that you have brought this before the throne of grace, for it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we can boldly approach God and find mercy in our time of need. Your prayer is a powerful declaration of faith, and we stand with you in agreement, knowing that the Lord is moved by the prayers of His people.
The evil done to this little girl is an abomination in the sight of God. The Scripture says in Proverbs 6:16-19, *"There are six things which Yahweh hates; yes, seven which are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are swift in running to mischief, a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers."* The hands that have harmed this child have shed innocent blood, and the hearts that refused to help her are complicit in this wickedness. We rebuke the spirit of violence, apathy, and cruelty that has manifested in this situation. The enemy seeks to destroy, but Jesus came to give life and life abundantly. We declare that the plans of the enemy over this child’s life are thwarted, and that the Lord will bring justice and restoration.
We pray for this little one, that the Lord would surround her with His angels, as it is written in Psalm 91:11, *"For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways."* May He be her shield and her refuge, her ever-present help in trouble. We ask that the Lord would place godly people in her life—those who will show her the love of Christ, speak truth over her, and guide her into the arms of her Heavenly Father. May she come to know Jesus as her Savior at a young age, as you have prayed, and may His healing power restore her body, mind, and spirit from the trauma she has endured. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted, and He saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). May she experience His comfort and peace in a way that transcends all understanding.
We also pray for her mother, that the Lord would convict her heart deeply of the sin she has committed against her own child. May she repent and turn to Christ for forgiveness, for only He can break the chains of sin and violence that have bound her. If she is trapped in cycles of anger, addiction, or ungodly influences, we pray that the Lord would set her free and lead her to a place of repentance and restoration. The Scripture says in Ezekiel 33:11, *"As I live, says the Lord Yahweh, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn, turn from your evil ways! For why will you die, house of Israel?"* May she encounter the transforming power of the Holy Spirit and become an instrument of love and protection for her daughter rather than harm.
For the neighbor who refused to help, we pray that the Lord would convict them of their hardness of heart. Their inaction is a grievous sin, for the Scripture commands us in Proverbs 24:11-12, *"Rescue those who are being led away to death! Indeed, hold back those who are staggering to the slaughter! If you say, ‘Behold, we didn’t know this,’ doesn’t he who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, doesn’t he know it? Shall he not render to every man according to his work?"* May they come to understand the weight of their failure and seek forgiveness from God, turning to Him in repentance. If they are believers, may the Holy Spirit bring them to a place of brokenness and restoration. If they are not, may this be a wake-up call that leads them to salvation in Christ.
We also lift up you and your wife, that the Lord would guard your hearts from bitterness and anger, even as you rightly grieve over this injustice. The Scripture tells us in Ephesians 4:26-27, *"Be angry, and don’t sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath, and don’t give place to the devil."* Your anger is justified, but we pray that it would not turn to sin or despair. Instead, may the Lord use this situation to deepen your dependence on Him and your passion for righteousness. May He give you wisdom in how to respond, whether that involves reporting this to the authorities, reaching out to the child or her family (if it is safe and appropriate to do so), or simply continuing to intercede in prayer. The Lord is a God of justice, and He will not allow this evil to go unpunished. Trust in Him to act on behalf of this little one.
Finally, we declare the promises of God over this child’s life. The Lord says in Jeremiah 29:11, *"For I know the plans that I have for you,’ says Yahweh, ‘plans of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future."* Though the enemy intended this for harm, God will use it for good. May this little one grow to be a mighty warrior for the Kingdom of God, a testimony of His healing power and redeeming love. May she one day look back on this time and see how the Lord turned her ashes into beauty and her mourning into joy.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You are a God who sees, who hears, and who acts on behalf of the oppressed. We ask that You would move mightily in this situation—bring justice for this little girl, healing for her body and soul, and salvation for her spirit. Break the chains of violence and apathy that have allowed this to happen, and raise up godly people to intervene on her behalf. Give wisdom and courage to those who can act to protect her, and let Your light shine brightly in this darkness.
We rebuke the spirit of violence, abuse, and indifference in the name of Jesus. We bind the works of the enemy and declare that this child’s life is hidden in Christ. No weapon formed against her will prosper, and every tongue that rises against her in judgment will be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). We speak life, hope, and a future over her, and we ask that You would draw her to Yourself, Lord Jesus. Let her know, even now, that she is deeply loved by You.
For those who have harmed her or failed to help her, we ask that You would bring conviction and repentance. Let them see the gravity of their actions and turn to You for mercy. If they refuse to repent, we pray that You would remove their influence from this child’s life and bring them to account for their sins.
Strengthen this dear brother and his wife as they intercede for this little one. Fill them with Your peace and Your righteous anger—a holy zeal for justice that is tempered by Your love. Show them how to be Your hands and feet in this situation, and let their prayers be a fragrant offering before You.
We thank You, Lord, that You are already at work in this situation. We trust You to bring beauty from these ashes and to turn this evil into a testimony of Your goodness and power. Let this little one’s life be a beacon of hope to others who have suffered, and let her story bring glory to Your name.
In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
