We hear your cry and we stand with you and your family before the throne of God, asking for His mighty deliverance from this long season of terrorism, abuse, and poverty. We want you to know that God sees your suffering and He hears the cries of the oppressed. Terrorism and abuse are evil and are not from God, for He hates violence and oppression. Psalm 11:5 says that Yahweh tests the righteous, but he hates the wicked and him who loves violence. What has been done to you and your family is sin before a holy God, and He is a God of justice as well as mercy.
We take comfort that God is our refuge and our rescuer. Psalm 46:1 tells us God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 34:17-18 says The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Psalm 91:1-2 promises He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust. And 2 Thessalonians 3:3 assures us But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.
We noticed your prayer was addressed to God but did not mention the name of Jesus Christ, and we want to lovingly share why His name is so essential. It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and it is only by His name that we are saved. Jesus Himself said in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. Acts 4:12 declares There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. To be rescued eternally as well as in this present trouble, we must believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, that He died for our sins and rose again, and confess Him as Lord. Romans 10:9 says that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:13 adds For, Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved. We encourage you to call upon the name of Jesus Christ with faith as you seek deliverance, for He is our mediator and our deliverer.
We now pray together for you and your family.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this dear one and their family who have endured so long under terrorism, abuse, and poverty. Lord, we ask You to be their shield and their strong tower. Rescue them from the hands of those who would harm them, break the chains of abuse, and bring an end to the terror that has oppressed them. Expose every evil work done in darkness and bring justice according to Your righteousness. We ask You to place Your hedge of protection around this family, to guard their bodies, minds, and souls, and to give them wisdom to find safe help through godly authorities, a Bible believing church family, and those You place in their path to protect the vulnerable. Lord, You see their poverty and their need, and we ask You to provide for them as only You can, for Philippians 4:19 promises my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Heal their broken hearts, comfort their trauma, and restore what the enemy has stolen. Lead them into peace and safety, and above all draw them close to Jesus, that they may know His salvation and His perfect love which casts out fear. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ, our refuge and redeemer, amen.
We encourage you to continue to cry out to the Lord daily in the name of Jesus, to stay in His Word, and to seek wise and godly help for your safety. If you are in immediate danger, please seek help from trusted local authorities and a safe, Bible believing church that can walk with you practically as well as spiritually. The Lord is near and He will not forsake those who trust in Him. Isaiah 41:10 says Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness. Keep trusting Him, keep calling on Jesus, and know that we are continuing to pray with you for complete freedom, healing, and provision for you and your household.
