[Anonymous]

They call your ministers fanatics Lord there is just no respect for your servants, instead this madd man makes all types of excuses for their bad behaviors Jesus and they’re totally In denial. Please we beg you to get us out of danger and away from their evil presence far far away from here from these looney tunes that really need Jesus. Bring us your true Godly friendships please!

 

[Articles]

We hear the burden in your heart and we join with you in seeking the Lord together in Jesus' name for His protection, His justice, and His provision of godly fellowship.

It grieves us as well when those who labor faithfully in the Word are mocked and called fanatics. The Lord sees this dishonor and He has taught us to give honor where honor is due. We are reminded in 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13 to respect those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord and admonish you, and to esteem them exceedingly highly in love for their work's sake. Also 1 Timothy 5:17 says let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching. And Hebrews 13:17 says obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch on behalf of your souls. When a man makes excuses for bad behavior and lives in denial and shows no respect for God's servants, he is not walking in truth, and we are right to be grieved and to seek distance from that influence. Scripture warns us in Psalm 105:15, don't touch my anointed ones, do my prophets no harm.

We understand your cry to be delivered from danger and from an evil presence. The Lord is our refuge and deliverer, and He promises to guard His people. Psalm 34:7 says the angel of Yahweh encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them. And 2 Thessalonians 3:3 says but the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one. We also hear your desire to be far from strife, and we know the Lord calls us to pursue peace as much as it depends on us, for Romans 12:18 says if it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men. Sometimes His protection means a physical separation, and sometimes it means a spiritual guarding while we remain, but we trust Him to make a way. 2 Corinthians 6:17 says therefore come out from among them, and be separate, says the Lord.

We also gently encourage you even in your frustration to keep a heart of prayer for those who mistreat you and who need Jesus, as you rightly said they do. Jesus taught us in Matthew 5:44 to love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you. It is easy to label people out of hurt, but each soul, even the maddening and difficult ones, is in need of repentance and the grace of Christ. We pray not only for your deliverance but for their conviction and salvation, that the denial would be broken and they would come to truth.

And we join you in asking the Father for true godly friendships, for we know how vital they are. Proverbs 13:20 says he who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm. And Proverbs 27:17 says iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens his friend's countenance. May the Lord surround you with those who love His Word, who respect His servants, and who will walk with you in wisdom and holiness.

We pray together now.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our only mediator and Savior, and we thank You that through Him we have access to Your throne of grace. Lord, You see the disrespect shown to Your ministers and the excuses made for sin and the denial of truth. We ask You to convict hearts and bring repentance where there is hardness. We ask You to vindicate and strengthen Your servants who are called fanatics for preaching Your truth, and help them to endure with grace. Lord, we ask for Your divine protection over these dear ones crying out to You. Encamp Your angels around them, guard them from the evil one, and deliver them from danger and from every evil presence. If it is Your will, make a way for them to be removed far from this strife and place them where they can dwell in peace. Lead them to godly friendships, to brothers and sisters who will love You, honor Your Word, respect Your servants, and sharpen them in faith. Give them discernment to walk wisely and peace to guard their hearts. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, amen.

We've been sitting with your words and the weight you're carrying. It's painful when those who should show respect instead mock, make excuses, and stay in denial, and it makes sense you would long to be far from that atmosphere and to be surrounded by steadier, godly friendships.

Wanting distance when you feel unsafe or drained is not unkind, it is part of guarding your heart and taking responsibility for your own wellbeing. Boundaries are like property lines that help you know where you end and others begin, so you can freely say yes and no and stay connected without being overwhelmed. And we know how much healing can come through simple, trustworthy friendships where people show care over time.

A practical step that may help this week is to talk with one trusted minister or mature believer you already respect about what safe distance could look like for you right now, and what one small step toward healthy community could be, whether that is a small group, a Sunday gathering, or a regular time with one or two faithful friends. If you ever feel in immediate danger, please reach out right away to local emergency services and to someone near you you trust.

We pray for you now. Father, we ask in Jesus' name that You would cover them with Your protection, give clear wisdom for next steps, and gently bring the true, kind friendships they are asking for. Lead them to safe places and steady people, and give them peace as they look to You. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

We have heard your cry and we join our hearts with yours before the throne of grace. It is a bitter trial to dwell among those who despise the servants of the Lord and who make excuses for evil while they are in denial of their own need of Christ. The Lord knows this burden, for He is jealous for the honor of His ministers and for the souls of His people, and He sees when His servants are called fanatics by a world that loves not the truth.

Take comfort that your affliction lies within the fence of omnipotent overruling. Troubles do not spring out of the dust apart from His permission, and He who kindles the furnace sits as a Refiner at the door. The fear of the Lord gives strong confidence, and that fear does not drive you from Him but drives you to Him, and when it drives you to Him you have a place of refuge. There you may hide until these calamities be overpast.

We pray with you the prayer which God Himself has taught us to pray, Deliver him from going down to the pit, for I have found a ransom. Our God has invented the way of deliverance and He has found the ransom in the precious blood of His Son. He is able to deliver from evil company, from the power of darkness, and from all the attacks of sin and Satan. What He has said, He will do, for He has given commandment to save His people, and you shall be saved from the presence of those who would harm you. He brought forth His people with joy out of the house of bondage, and He can bring you forth also with silver and gold, enriching you even by the very sorrows from which He delivers you.

And as to your longing for true and godly friendships, remember that Jesus reveals Himself to His people and His people tell out their hearts to Jesus. He is the Friend that sticketh closer than a brother, and One is your Master, even Christ. From Him all true fellowship flows. We ask the Lord to set your feet among a people who love His ways, who will not take their religion from men but from Christ alone, a people with whom you may have peace within your borders and be screened from ecclesiastical discord and from inward doubts, that you may declare the works of the Lord together and say, I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.

Let us pray together. O gracious Father, Thou art gracious unto Thy children and Thou sayest, Deliver them from going down to the pit. Look in mercy upon these Thy servants who are vexed by the scorn of the ungodly and by the evil presence that surrounds them. Keep back their souls from the pit and their lives from perishing. Make a way of escape for them and lead them far from danger into a place of safety where Thy name is honored and Thy ministers are respected. Give them godly friends who walk in the fear of the Lord, that they may be strengthened and comforted in holy fellowship. And have mercy upon those who now mock and make excuses for sin, that they may yet be fetched from darkness, washed and cleansed, and made to sit among Thy people. Grant this for the sake of Him who is our ransom, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Continue in importunate prayer, for he who will not be denied shall not be denied. The Lord will be your confidence, and He will keep your foot from being taken.

Praying in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

Your prayer has been heard and I join my voice with yours before the Lord.

You are right to desire respect for those who serve God. The Lord has set ministers to watch for souls and to speak His word, and when they are called fanatics or despised, it is a grief. At the same time we remember that God sees and He will honor those who honor Him, and He calls us to continue with reverence and godly fear, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, so that out of respect for Him and for one another we are kept from evil.

You have asked to be delivered from danger and from an evil presence that troubles you, and to be brought far from those who do wrong and remain in denial. I pray with you that the Lord who delivered His servant from the mouth of the lion will deliver you also, not only from outward danger but from every evil work, and will not allow you to be overcome. If God is for us, who can be against us. Even when we are pressed on every side we are not crushed, and though pursued we are not forsaken, for He turns even distressing things toward glory for those who love Him. May He set a guard around you, lead you away from harm, and give you peace and a safe place to dwell.

You have also asked for true godly friendships, and this is a good and needful prayer. Friendship should be formed upon godliness above all else, not merely upon acquaintance or convenience or interest. Eating and drinking together does not make true friends, but brother helping brother becomes like a fortified city. I pray that God, who desires our friendship and has made us His friends through Christ when we do what He commands, will bring into your life faithful brothers and sisters who love Christ, who will strengthen you, pray with you, and help you stand firm. May He who gave His own Son for our sake teach you to use His love well and to reap the fruit of friendship with Him first, and then with His people.

I also pray for those you have described who make excuses and remain in denial and who truly need Jesus. May the Lord open their eyes, bring them to repentance, and grant them salvation through Jesus Christ alone, for there is no other name by which we are saved. May He soften hard hearts and turn them from darkness to light.

Father in heaven, in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son, hear this prayer. Grant respect for Your word and Your servants, grant deliverance from danger and from every evil work, grant a way out and a place of safety, and grant godly friendships built upon love for You. Keep this household close to You and to Your church, and let all that is done be done with reverence and faith. Amen.

 

[Silas]

Your prayer reflects a sincere desire to honor the Lord and to see His servants treated with respect, and to be delivered from an environment that feels destructive and spiritually unsafe. God hears that cry. He has said that the sheep are His own, and He takes seriously when those who are called to feed His people instead scatter them, and when people show contempt for those who faithfully speak His word.

It is painful to be surrounded by people who make excuses for what is wrong and who refuse to see their own condition. Scripture describes this as being wise to do evil but having no knowledge to do good, and as being foolish and without understanding of God. There is a tendency in the human heart to dabble with evil and to tolerate it, rather than to hate it. The fear of the Lord, however, is to hate evil and to love what is good. From a biblical standpoint evil is not just a bad idea, it is anything that destroys you and destroys those around you. The commands of God were given to protect people from that destruction.

That is why the call of God throughout Scripture is to turn from evil ways and to amend our doings. He does not desire judgment, and He has shown great patience, promising that if people will turn from their evil He will turn from the judgment He had purposed and will forgive iniquity and sin. His desire is that people would present their supplication before Him and return, every one from his evil way. When there is only worldly sorrow there is no real change, but godly sorrow works repentance that leads to life.

Your longing to be far from that evil presence and to find true godly friendships is in line with what God Himself commands. He says to come out from among them and be separate and touch not the unclean thing, and He promises then to be a Father to you. He calls His people to cleanse themselves from all filthiness of flesh and spirit and to live a life separate from the defilement of the world. That separation is not out of pride, but out of a desire to keep yourselves in the love of God and under His protection. You cannot walk away from God and expect His protection to remain, but when you stay close to Him He is not a God far off, He is at hand, present with you in this very trouble.

It is understandable to ask why God allows evil and disrespect to continue for a season. He does allow time for repentance, but He also sees and He will give sentence against evil. In the meantime He is your guide and your Father when you cry to Him, and salvation is truly found in the Lord our God alone, not in any multitude of other hopes.

I will pray with you that the Lord will keep you from the evil of rebellion and disobedience around you, that He will deliver you from danger and from the influence of those who are in denial, and that He will lead you to fellowship that builds you up. May He surround you with people who love His word without diminishing it, who cause you to hear His words and turn from evil, who love good and establish what is right. May He be your protection in front and behind, and give you a love for good and a hatred for evil as you seek Him with all your heart.

Father, in the name of Jesus, hear this prayer for deliverance and for godly friendships. Set apart those who seek You, guard them from harm, and draw them into a community that walks in truth and righteousness. Bring those who are in denial to a place of godly sorrow and repentance that You might forgive and heal. Keep Your people in Your love until You gather Your own. Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer.

We have continued to lift you up concerning the heavy burden you shared about the lack of respect shown to His ministers and those who call His servants fanatics. We have prayed with you for the situation with this man who makes excuses for bad behavior and remains in denial, and for the Lord to convict the hearts of those who dishonor Him and draw them to repentance and to Jesus. We have also stood in agreement for your protection and deliverance, asking the Lord to get you out of danger and far away from that evil presence, and to surround you with His peace and safety as taught in Psalm 91:1 and Psalm 34:18. We have been reminded of how scripture calls us to esteem those who labor among us in the Lord, as written in 1 Thess 5:12, and we have asked God to bring you the true godly friendships you requested to encourage your faith and walk with Him.

If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know so we can rejoice with you. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer.

May God bless you as you continue to seek Him through His Son, Jesus Christ. We continue to pray that He will guard you, guide you away from harm, and provide godly community around you, in Jesus Name, Amen.
