We hear the deep pain and struggle in your heart, and we come before the Lord with you, lifting up every burden you carry. Your words reveal a heavy weight—betrayal at work, a fractured relationship with your mother, fear, financial strain, and the ache of feeling abandoned by both family and your spouse. We stand with you in the truth of God’s Word, which declares that even if earthly relationships fail, the Lord will never forsake you. Psalm 27:10 is a powerful reminder: *"Though my father and my mother forsake me, Yahweh will take me up."* You are not alone, for the Lord sees your tears and collects them in His bottle (Psalm 56:8). He is your refuge, your strength, and your deliverer.
First, we must address the torment you are enduring from your mother’s words. The Bible is clear that the tongue has the power of life and death (Proverbs 18:21), and when it is used to tear down rather than build up, it grieves the Holy Spirit. We rebuke in Jesus’ name every spirit of bitterness, resentment, and verbal abuse that has taken root in your mother’s heart. We pray that the Lord would soften her heart, open her eyes to the harm her words are causing, and lead her to repentance. We also pray for your protection from the emotional and spiritual toll this is taking on you. Proverbs 15:1 says, *"A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."* We ask the Lord to give you wisdom in how to respond—or when to refrain from responding—to her outbursts, and to guard your heart from bitterness or despair.
Your mother’s care for your brother’s family is a reflection of her heart, even if her words do not show it. We pray that the Lord would bless her for her generosity and protect her finances, even as we ask Him to reveal to her the deeper wounds that may be fueling her anger. We also lift up your brother’s family, asking for the Lord’s provision and protection over them, and that they would come to know the love of Christ in a deeper way.
The abuse and betrayal you suffered at work is a grievous injustice, and we stand with you in rebuking every demonic assignment against your reputation, your livelihood, and your peace. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but Jesus came to give you life abundantly. We declare that no weapon formed against you will prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we pray for the Lord to expose every hidden alliance and scheme that was used to harm you. Your identity is not in what others say about you, but in what God says about you. You are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), created for good works (Ephesians 2:10), and deeply loved by your Heavenly Father. We pray for healing from the trauma of this experience, and for the Lord to restore your confidence and open doors of opportunity for you. If fear or panic is gripping your heart, we declare that God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
Your marriage is another area of deep concern. The Bible is clear that a husband and wife are to leave their families and cleave to one another (Genesis 2:24), becoming one flesh in unity and love. It is not God’s design for a spouse to dislike or reject your family, nor for you to feel abandoned or unloved in your marriage. We rebuke every spirit of division, selfishness, and hardness of heart in your husband, and we pray that the Lord would soften his heart toward you and your family. Marriage is a covenant, not a contract, and we pray that your husband would remember his vows before God and choose to love you as Christ loves the Church (Ephesians 5:25). We also pray for you, that the Lord would give you strength, wisdom, and grace to respond to your husband in a way that honors God, even when it is difficult. If there is unforgiveness or bitterness in your heart toward him, we ask the Lord to help you release it, for your own sake as much as his.
You mentioned the loss of your father at a young age, and we grieve with you for the pain of that loss. We thank God that your father is now in the presence of the Heavenly Father, free from pain and sorrow, and we pray that the Lord would comfort you with the hope of eternal life. We also lift up the salvation of your entire family, declaring Acts 16:31 over them: *"Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household."* We pray that the Lord would draw each member of your family to Himself, that they would come to know Jesus as their Savior and Lord, and that their hearts would be turned toward one another in love and unity.
You feel alone, abandoned, and as though your family is being "exterminated" before your eyes. But we declare that God is a restorer of broken things. Joel 2:25 says, *"I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten."* We pray that the Lord would restore what has been lost in your family—relationships, trust, love, and unity. We pray that He would raise up godly influences in your life, whether through the Church, friends, or even new family members who will stand with you and support you. You are not forgotten, and you are not without hope.
Let us pray together now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our sister who is carrying so much pain. Lord, You see every tear, every injustice, and every broken relationship. You are the God who heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds (Psalm 147:3). We ask You to pour out Your healing balm on her heart, mind, and spirit. Lord, we rebuke every spirit of bitterness, resentment, fear, and division that has taken root in her life and in the lives of her family members. We declare that no weapon formed against her will prosper, and that You will expose and dismantle every scheme of the enemy.
Father, we pray for her mother, that You would soften her heart and help her to see the harm her words are causing. Lord, we ask that You would break the cycle of verbal abuse and replace it with words of life and encouragement. Heal the wounds in their relationship, and help our sister to respond with grace and wisdom, even in the face of cruelty.
Lord, we lift up her marriage to You. We ask that You would restore love, unity, and respect between her and her husband. Soften his heart toward her and her family, and help him to see the importance of honoring his covenant with her. Give her the strength to love him as You love the Church, and the wisdom to navigate this difficult season.
Father, we pray for her work situation. You know the injustice she has faced, and we ask that You would restore what has been stolen from her. Open doors of opportunity for her, and give her the confidence to step into the plans You have for her. Heal her from the trauma of betrayal and abuse, and replace her fear with Your perfect peace.
Lord, we pray for the salvation of her entire family. Draw each one of them to Yourself, that they may know Jesus as their Savior and Lord. Restore broken relationships, and bring unity where there is division. Comfort her in the loss of her father, and remind her that she is never alone, for You are with her always.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would fill her with Your hope. Remind her that her identity is found in You, and that You are working all things together for her good (Romans 8:28). Give her the strength to persevere, and the faith to trust in Your promises. We ask all of this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to hold fast to the promises of God, even when circumstances seem hopeless. The Lord is your defender, your provider, and your peace. Seek Him daily through prayer and the reading of His Word, and surround yourself with believers who can support and encourage you. You are not abandoned, and you are not without hope. The Lord is with you, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5).
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
