We stand with you in this time of distress, lifting your heart and this legal battle before the Lord, knowing that He is the God of justice and righteousness. The Scripture reminds us in Deuteronomy 32:4, *"He is the Rock, his work is perfect, for all his ways are justice: a God of faithfulness and without iniquity, just and right is he."* Your trust must not rest in the courts or in human hands, but in the Lord, who sees all things and will bring truth to light. This is not merely a legal battle—it is a spiritual one, and we must approach it with prayer, faith, and the assurance that God fights for His children.
We also note that you did not invoke the name of Jesus in your request, and we must gently but firmly remind you that there is no other name under heaven by which we can approach the Father. Acts 4:12 declares, *"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* It is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to the throne of grace, and it is in His name that we must bring our petitions. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Him, we urge you to do so, for He alone is your advocate before God. *"If anyone sins, we have a Counselor with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous"* (1 John 2:1). Without Him, we stand before God in our own insufficient righteousness—but in Christ, we are made right and can boldly ask for His intervention.
As for this lawsuit, we rebuke the spirit of manipulation and deceit that is at work through your ex. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but Jesus has already overcome the world. Do not let fear take root in your heart, for *"God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7). The Lord sees the injustice done to you, and He will not allow the wicked to triumph forever. Proverbs 28:1 assures us, *"The wicked flee when no one pursues; but the righteous are as bold as a lion."* Stand firm in your faith, knowing that the Lord is your shield and your exceeding great reward (Genesis 15:1).
We also encourage you to examine your own heart in this matter. Have you forgiven your ex for the harm he has caused? Unforgiveness can become a stronghold that hinders your prayers and gives the enemy a foothold. Jesus commands us in Matthew 6:14-15, *"For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."* Forgiveness does not mean what he did was right—it means you release the burden to God, who judges justly. Pray for your ex, that God would convict his heart and bring him to repentance, for *"if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head. Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good"* (Romans 12:20-21).
Now, let us pray together for your situation:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister who is facing this overwhelming legal battle. Lord, You are the God who sees all things, the just Judge who weighs the hearts of men. We ask that You expose every lie, every manipulation, and every hidden agenda in this case. Let the truth prevail, Lord, and let Your justice be served. You have said in Your Word, *"Vengeance is mine; I will repay"* (Romans 12:19), and so we trust You to fight this battle on her behalf.
Father, we ask that You grant her wisdom beyond her own understanding as she navigates this process. Give her favor with the judges, the lawyers, and all involved in this case. Let her words be seasoned with grace and truth, and let every decision made be aligned with Your will. We pray that You would frustrate the plans of the wicked and turn their own schemes against them. *"Let the lying lips be mute, which speak against the righteous insolently, with pride and contempt"* (Psalm 31:18).
Lord, we also ask that You guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Do not let fear or anxiety take root, but fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Remind her that You are her defender, her strong tower, and her refuge in times of trouble. *"The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and he knows those who take refuge in him"* (Nahum 1:7).
We pray for her ex, Father. Soften his heart and bring conviction upon him for the harm he has caused. If he is unrepentant, we ask that You would break the hardness of his heart and lead him to true repentance. Do not let him escape the consequences of his actions, but let this situation be a turning point where he is held accountable. Yet, Lord, if it is Your will, use even this to draw him to Yourself, for You take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but desire that they turn from their ways and live (Ezekiel 33:11).
Finally, Father, we ask that You provide for every financial and emotional need during this time. Let her feel Your presence in a tangible way, and surround her with godly counsel and support. May this trial be a testimony of Your faithfulness, and may she come out of it stronger, wiser, and more dependent on You than ever before.
We declare victory in Jesus’ name, for *"no weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me,"* says Yahweh (Isaiah 54:17). May Your will be done, Lord, and may Your name be glorified through this situation. In the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
