Lord please answer fast

You cry out for the Lord to answer quickly, but your prayer reveals a soul in tumult, tossed about by dreams and fears as a ship in a storm. Do you not know that the evil one sends such visions to trouble those who are not watchful? He does not let the unwary see the snare until their minds are tangled in it, and then he suggests that the answer is to command God as though He were a servant. You bind and rebuke and reject, piling up words as if by much speaking you will be heard. But where is the quiet trust that pleads, “Thy will be done”? Where is the self-examination that asks, “Am I living in such a way that these terrors lose their grip”?

Consider what you ask: that every unwanted dream be made void, that every wrong person be removed from your life and your relations’ lives forever, that you be kept from any unpleasant look or cross word. Is this the path of the saints, of whom the world was not worthy? They “were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.” Yet you would have no trial at all, no unkind face, no strain in any relationship. Your prayer is not for grace to bear injuries but for a life walled off from every discomfort. This is to seek a kingdom of ease, not the Kingdom of Heaven.

You demand that God erase future moments as though He were an editor of a book, and you bargain for a job with pay beyond what anyone expects. What is this but to make the Lord your merchant, owing you wages on your terms? Christ descended into the lower parts of the earth to deliver you from the tyrant, even the devil, and from death and the curse and sin. That is the captivity He broke. That is the deliverance you should seek above all. Yet you place more weight on a dream about someone making a face than on the state of your soul. You are more anxious about losing the relationships you want than about whether you offend God in them.

The devil often works through disorder and fear. He would keep you fixated on imaginary evils so that you neglect the real ones. You pray against wrong people, but the most dangerous enemy is not the one who might talk down on you; it is the pride and anger within your own breast. Examine whether you are covenant-breaking, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful, even to those in your own house. If you have stored up bitterness, how can you pray this way? Repentance that comes only when the dream frightens you, and then demands immediate relief, resembles the remorse of Judas: he condemned his deed and threw down the silver, but he destroyed himself nonetheless, for his sorrow lacked humility and hope.

Stand still and cease striving. Commend yourself to God without dictating the outcome. If you suffer a harsh word, bless and do not curse. If a dream troubles you, say, “I have put on Christ. He is my shield. What can a shadow do to me?” The Lord delivered Paul from the lion's mouth, not by removing every threat but by preserving him for the Gospel. Seek that deliverance: to be kept from every evil work, that you may finish your course with joy. Pray for your enemies. Entrust your relationships to the One who sees what is best. And labor quietly, doing your duty, whether the job comes or not, knowing that the Father feeds the birds and clothes the grass.

Cast the burden of these anxieties upon Him. Fast, give alms, confess your sins, and attend the holy mysteries. Then you will find that the peace of Christ rules in your heart, and dreams lose their terror. Do not make God your debtor, but humble yourself under His mighty hand. The promise is not that you will have no unwanted persons around you, but that all things work together for good to them that love God. Lay hold of that, and you will be safe, not because all shadows flee, but because even in the valley of the shadow, you fear no evil.
 
Your prayer comes from a heart that is genuinely troubled, and I want you to know that the things you are wrestling with have been felt deeply by those who have walked with God long before us. When terrors rise in the night and our minds replay scenes of loss and fracture, it can feel as though something evil is hunting the peace we long to keep. That fear is not strange to God, and he does not turn away from it.

Consider how the ancient story of Job gives voice to a man who had everything stripped away, family, health, security, and in his anguish he cried out, wishing that his night visions would cease and that the dread that haunted him would be removed. People around him insisted he must have done something to deserve it; they turned his desperate words into accusations and made his pain a reason to condemn. Yet Job, even when he didn't understand, held onto one truth: God is just. He is not the source of our irrational fears, nor does he delight in our torment.

Those unwanted dreams, the ones where relationships splinter and faces turn against you, are not prophecies. They are the weary mind processing worry, and they hold no power to determine your tomorrow. Job himself spoke many things out of his misery that were not reliable pictures of reality, he once thought death would be total oblivion, but that was the cry of a wounded man, not doctrine. Your dreams do not bind God’s hands or rewrite the love he has for you and your relatives. You can confidently ask him to silence those fears and then trust that he is not waiting to spring a trap on you.

The plea you make from Psalm 35, asking the Lord to contend with those who contend with you, is a right and honest prayer. It echoes Job’s longing for someone to stand between himself and everything that seemed to oppose him. The good news is that God has answered that cry. Jesus Christ himself is the mediator who lays his hand on both God and humanity, bridging every gap of misunderstanding and offering a justice that is perfect. He sees when others misjudge you, and he watches over the relationships you hold dear far more carefully than you can.

When you ask God to remove wrong or unwanted people from your life, remember that his protection often works quietly, and sometimes the very circumstances that make you feel threatened are not what they appear. Job’s friends meant to comfort him, but they only added to his confusion. In the end, God rebuked them and restored Job. The Lord knows how to guard your connections and provide what is right. Keep bringing your anxiety about work and provision to him; he is not limited by what you expect, and he can open doors and set your wage in ways that surprise you.

So do not let those nighttime images set the course of your day. Speak back to them with the truth that God is just, that he does not abandon the upright, and that his plans for you are not shaped by a shadowy dream. When fear rises, you can say, “He knows my path, and he will bring me out into the light.” Rest in that, even while you continue to ask, and trust that his answer is already working.
 
We want to thank you for the trust you placed in us to stand with you in prayer during this deeply troubling time. Your request touched our hearts, especially as you sought the Lord’s protection over your dreams, your relationships, and your future. We have continued to lift you before the throne of grace, asking our Heavenly Father to rebuke every evil influence, bind every harmful spirit, and shield you and your loved ones from anything that does not align with His perfect will.

We are holding fast to the promise in Psalm 35:1, asking God to contend with those who contend against you and to fight for you as only He can. We pray that every unwanted dream would vanish, that every wrong person would be removed from your life, and that your relationships would be restored and strengthened according to His purpose. We also stand with you in faith for the job you seek, believing that God will open doors of provision and blessing beyond what you could ask or imagine.

If the Lord has already answered your prayers in ways you can see, we would be overjoyed to hear your praise report so we can rejoice with you. If the battle still feels ongoing, please know we are not stepping away—we will continue to intercede on your behalf. You are not alone in this. We encourage you to keep pressing into God’s presence, trusting that He hears you and is working even when you cannot see it.

May the peace of Christ guard your heart and mind, and may His strength sustain you as you walk in faith. We pray all these things in the mighty and victorious name of Jesus. Amen.
