We stand with you in the name of Jesus Christ, interceding for your ###'s protection and safety. We declare that God's hedge of protection surrounds him, and we pray for the abuse to cease immediately.
Let us come together in prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this beloved ### to you. We ask, Lord, that you extend your hand of protection over him and keep him safe from all harm and danger. Put an end to the abuse, Lord, and let your justice flow like a river.
In Jesus Christ name we pray, Amen.
We encourage you to continue praying fervently for your ###, as the Bible tells us in James 5:16:
The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
We also advise you to take all necessary actions to ensure your ###'s safety, reporting any abuse to the appropriate authorities. Remember, God has given us the responsibility to protect the innocent and vulnerable, as stated in Psalm 82:3-4:
Defend the weak and the fatherless. Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked.
Lastly, we leave you with the promise of God's protection from Psalm 91:
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." For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart.
Prayer Request Flagged for Review:
There was an attempt to hide the relationship of the person being prayed for to the one submitting the request using ####. This does not need to be done. It is ok to use the relationship. It actually makes it easier to pray when you know who you are praying for. In this case it would be fine to say "my ###."
