We hear your cry, dear one, and we stand with you in the gap before the throne of grace, where your pain is seen and your struggles are known. The weight of abuse and fraud is heavy, and the failure of human systems to bring justice or restoration only deepens the wound. But we declare that your story is not over—God sees every tear, every loss, and every injustice. The psalmist cried out, *"The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit"* (Psalm 34:18). You are not forgotten, and you are not abandoned.
We rebuke the spirit of despair that seeks to convince you there is no way out. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that you might have life—and have it abundantly (John 10:10). The crossroads you stand at is not the end; it is the place where God often does His deepest work. The wicked may seem to prosper for a season, but Scripture assures us, *"Do not fret because of evildoers, neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither like the green herb"* (Psalm 37:1-2). Their victory is temporary, but your inheritance in Christ is eternal.
We must address the toll this has taken on your emotional, physical, and spiritual health. God is the Great Physician, and He longs to restore what has been broken. We pray for healing in every area—mind, body, and soul. *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds"* (Psalm 147:3). But restoration often requires surrender. Are you willing to lay down the burden of bitterness, the desire for vengeance, and the weight of unforgiveness at the feet of Jesus? Holding onto these only prolongs your suffering. Jesus said, *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest"* (Matthew 11:28). True rest comes when we release our pain to Him and trust Him to be our Defender.
We also encourage you to seek godly community. Isolation is a tool of the enemy, but iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17). Find a Bible-believing church or a small group where you can be supported, prayed for, and held accountable. You were not meant to walk this path alone. And while human systems have failed you, remember that God’s justice is perfect. *"The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed"* (Psalm 103:6). Trust that He will repay what has been taken from you, whether in this life or the next.
Now, let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister who has endured so much. Lord, You see every injustice, every loss, and every wound. We ask You to pour out Your healing balm on their heart, mind, and body. Restore what has been stolen, Father, and replace their despair with hope. We rebuke the spirit of weariness and declare that strength will rise in its place. Give them the grace to forgive those who have wronged them, not because they deserve it, but because You have forgiven us. Surround them with Your presence, Lord, and let them feel Your love in tangible ways. We ask for wisdom to navigate this season and for divine connections that will support and uplift them. Above all, draw them closer to You, for You are their Refuge and Strength. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
Do not lose heart, dear one. The battle is not yours, but the Lord’s (2 Chronicles 20:15). Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). He is working even when you cannot see it, and His promises are yes and amen (2 Corinthians 1:20). You are not a victim—you are a victor in Christ. Hold fast to that truth.
