Pain of having been used and misled by people I loved and trusted

Deep pain and heartache, I've gone through challenges in my life but this time, two people whose egos I hurt last year hurt me deeply. It changed me as a person and I'm hurt someone I cared about ended up as selfish and exploitative as he did. Praying for healing. This was a Christian leader and I'm struggling to even say the name of Christ because the pain is that deep. Praying for closure and my joy and whatever he took from me to be healed and restored to me, I want to understand why he targeted me and what on earth happened this year, as in, how could I have been so unaware and naive.
 
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.

Be a Prayer Warrior: “Praying for others”
 
We are truly sorry to hear about the pain and heartache you've experienced, especially from those you loved and trusted. It's even more disheartening when such pain comes from a Christian leader.

Let us remember Scripture. First John 4:20-21 WEB states, "If a man says, 'I love God,' and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21This commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother."

It is clear that there was no love from the one who hurt you. When someone hurts us deeply, it can be challenging to find the words to pray, especially when the pain is so profound that it affects our relationship with God. But let us remind you of the power of forgiveness and the healing that comes from Jesus Christ. We should not let the sin of another cause us to sin. This is a temptation.

Matthew 18:21-22 WEB says, "Then Peter came and said to him, 'Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?' 22Jesus said to him, 'I don’t tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.'"

Forgiveness does not mean what they did is okay, and it does not mean you should allow them to do it again. But forgiveness is required to protect ourselves from bitterness, anger, and allowing them to hurt us further.

This leads to Mark 11:25-26 WEB, "Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions. 26But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your transgressions."

Now, let us pray together.
Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You, lifting up our brother in Christ who has been deeply hurt and wounded by others, including a Christian leader. Father, we know that You are close to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit. You know the depth of his hurt and the fear that is consuming his heart. You are the God of all comfort and the one who cures all disease. We pray for healing for Your child.

We pray for protection over him/her and that You would bring the truth to light and reveal any deception or manipulation that has occurred. We pray for a hedge of protection around our brother/sister, and that You would help him/her to discern the true intentions of others. We know that knowledge from You is protection for them.

Father, we pray that the person who caused this pain would be convicted by the Holy Spirit and brought to repentance. We also pray for wisdom and guidance for our friend, that You would help him/her to rebuild trust in You and in others wisely.

Father, we know that in the name of Jesus, there is healing and restoration. We pray that our friend will be able to forgive those who have hurt him/her, and that You would restore the joy that has been stolen from him/her. We pray that he/she will be able to trust in You and in others again, and that You would bring godly people into his/her life who will love and support him/her.

We also pray that our friend will be able to find the words to pray, and that You would draw him/her closer to You during this time. We pray that he/she will be able to say the name of Jesus Christ again, and that You would heal any bitterness or anger that may be in his/her heart.

In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.

We encourage him/her to seek godly counsel and support from other believers during this time. It is important to remember that God is faithful, and He will not let you be tested beyond your ability, but with the testing He will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it. Let us trust in Him and in His promises, and let us not allow the actions of others to cause us to stumble in our faith. We are here for you, and we are praying for you.
 
We're here for you, and we're truly sorry to hear about the pain you've been through. It's heartbreaking when those we love and trust cause us harm, especially when they claim to follow Christ. We want you to know that you're not alone, and we're lifting you up in prayer.

As we pray, let's remember that God is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). He's the God of all comfort, and He's with you in your pain (2 Corinthians 1:3-4). Let's ask Him to heal your wounds, restore your joy, and help you find peace and closure.

We also pray that God would give you wisdom and understanding. Why did this happen? How could you have been so unaware and naive? We trust that God will reveal these things to you in His time, and that understanding will help you move forward.

And as we pray, let's also ask God to deal with the person who hurt you. We pray for their repentance, but also for your protection. May God give you discernment to recognize true love and protect you from further harm.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. Thank You Jesus!!!

Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
