No smoking in the train.
Pupils are smoking ### cigarettes in front of me!!! I have opened a window and they are complaining that it's cold. I don't know how to fight this evil.
 
We hear your distress and stand with you in this difficult situation. It is deeply troubling when others disregard rules, common decency, and the well-being of those around them—especially when their actions expose others to harm. Smoking in a public space where it is prohibited is not only unlawful but selfish, and their harassment only compounds the offense. You are right to stand against this evil, for Scripture tells us, *"Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good"* (Romans 12:21 WEB).

First, we must address the spiritual reality of what is happening. This is not merely a matter of inconvenience or discomfort—it is a manifestation of rebellion against order, authority, and respect for others. The enemy seeks to sow discord, discomfort, and even fear, but we are called to resist him, standing firm in faith (James 4:7 WEB). The harassment you are facing is not just from the pupils but from a spirit of defiance that must be confronted in the name of Jesus.

We rebuke the spirit of rebellion, disrespect, and addiction that drives these young people to smoke in defiance of the rules and the health of others. We declare in the name of Jesus that their actions will not intimidate or silence you. We pray that their hearts would be convicted of their wrongdoing and that they would turn from this behavior. *"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding"* (Proverbs 9:10 WEB). May they come to know the fear of the Lord and turn from their ways.

We also encourage you to take practical steps. If there are authorities on the train—conductors, security, or even other passengers—do not hesitate to report this behavior. God has placed authorities in our lives for our protection and the enforcement of order (Romans 13:1-4 WEB). You are not wrong to seek help, and you should not have to endure this alone. If possible, document the behavior (without putting yourself in danger) as evidence if further action is needed.

Let us pray for you now:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who is facing this trial. Lord, You see the injustice and the disrespect being shown, and we ask that You intervene. Give our brother/sister courage to stand firm and not be intimidated. Surround them with Your peace and protection, and let Your presence be a shield against the harassment they are enduring.

Father, we pray for these young people who are smoking and causing disturbance. Soften their hearts, Lord. Convict them of their wrongdoing and lead them to repentance. Break the hold of addiction in their lives, and replace their rebellion with a desire to honor You and respect others. Let them see the error of their ways and turn from this behavior.

We declare that no weapon formed against our brother/sister shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17 WEB). We bind every spirit of defiance, disrespect, and addiction in the name of Jesus and command it to flee. We ask that You raise up allies for them—authorities or fellow passengers who will stand with them and help put an end to this situation.

Lord, grant them wisdom in how to respond. If they must speak, let their words be seasoned with grace and truth (Colossians 4:6 WEB). If they must act, let their actions be guided by Your Spirit. Protect their health from the effects of secondhand smoke, and restore peace to their journey.

We thank You, Father, that You are a God of justice and righteousness. You see all things, and You will not let evil go unchecked. We trust in Your deliverance and ask that You be glorified in this situation. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Continue to stand firm in your faith, knowing that God is your defender. You are not powerless—you have the authority of Christ behind you, and He will not abandon you in this battle. Keep your heart fixed on Him, and do not let fear or frustration take root. *"The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?"* (Psalm 27:1 WEB). Trust in Him, and He will guide your steps.
 
We're right there with you, standing strong in this tough situation. It's frustrating when others disregard rules and common decency, especially when it puts others at risk. We've been where you are, feeling powerless, but remember, we're never alone. God is with us, and He's given us authority in His name.

Let's pray together, shall we? "Dear Lord, we come to You now, lifting up our friend who's facing this trouble. Lord, You see the injustice happening, and we ask that You intervene. Give them courage to stand firm, and surround them with Your peace. Protect their health from the secondhand smoke, and give them wisdom in how to respond.

Lord, we also pray for those young people. Softening their hearts, Lord. Convict them of their wrongdoing and lead them to repentance. Break the hold of addiction in their lives, and replace their rebellion with a desire to honor You and respect others.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
 
Lord Jesus please richly bless, protect and guide them. Please help them in accordance with your perfect will Father. Thank you and praise you. In your holy name I pray. Amen.
 
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.
