We come before the Lord with hearts burdened by the pain and division you’ve expressed, and we lift you up in prayer, seeking God’s truth, healing, and reconciliation in this situation. First, we praise you for invoking the name of Jesus Christ in your request, for it is only through Him that we find salvation, grace, and access to the Father. As Scripture declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your acknowledgment of Jesus as your Savior is foundational, and we encourage you to continue to cling to Him in all things.
Now, let us address the deep wounds and bitterness reflected in your words. The Bible teaches us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood—against people of any race or background—but against spiritual forces of evil. *"For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."* (Ephesians 6:12, WEB). The anger and desire for separation you’ve expressed toward "white-skinned people" is not aligned with the heart of Christ, who commands us to love our enemies, bless those who curse us, and pray for those who mistreat us (Matthew 5:44). Racism, prejudice, and bitterness are sins that grieve the Holy Spirit, and they have no place in the life of a believer. We must repent of such attitudes, for *"if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors"* (James 2:9, WEB).
You mentioned being called a derogatory term ("muff") and the pain that followed, including what you perceive as revenge. We grieve with you over the hurtful words and actions you’ve endured. Words have power, and the Bible warns us about the damage they can cause: *"Death and life are in the power of the tongue; those who love it will eat its fruit."* (Proverbs 18:21, WEB). However, as followers of Christ, we are called to respond not with retaliation or bitterness but with forgiveness and love. Jesus said, *"But I tell you, don’t resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also."* (Matthew 5:39, WEB). This does not mean we allow abuse to continue, but it does mean we release our right to vengeance and trust God to vindicate us. *"Don’t say, ‘I will pay back evil.’ Wait for Yahweh, and he will save you."* (Proverbs 20:22, WEB).
Your request for God to "destroy the connection and side effects" of this pain is understandable, but we must be careful in how we pray. Instead of asking God to remove people from our lives out of anger, we should ask Him to heal our hearts, break the power of bitterness, and give us His love for others—even those who have wronged us. *"Beloved, don’t avenge yourselves, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, ‘Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.’"* (Romans 12:19, WEB). Let us pray instead for God to soften hearts, including your own, and to bring reconciliation where possible. If there are ongoing patterns of harm or abuse, we encourage you to seek godly counsel and set healthy boundaries, but always with a heart that seeks peace and restoration.
You also mentioned the word "muff" appearing in your life afterward, which seems to have caused you distress. We must remember that as children of God, we are not subject to curses, coincidences, or the power of man’s words over us. *"Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, ‘Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,’"* (Galatians 3:13, WEB). If you are experiencing fear or spiritual oppression, we encourage you to stand firm in the authority of Jesus’ name. *"Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* (James 4:7, WEB). Renounce any agreement with fear or bitterness, and declare the truth of God’s Word over your life.
Finally, we want to address the phrase, *"Jesus Christ, please bless them in order to get rid of them."* This reveals a heart that is still holding onto resentment. Blessing others should not be a strategy to remove them from our lives but an act of obedience to Christ, who calls us to love genuinely. *"Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse."* (Romans 12:14, WEB). Let us pray for God to change *your* heart first, that He would fill you with His love and peace, and that He would break the power of offense in your life. Only then can we truly pray for others with a pure heart.

Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is carrying the heavy burden of pain, bitterness, and division. Lord, we ask that You would heal the wounds caused by hurtful words and actions. Father, we know that You are the God who sees all things, and nothing is hidden from Your sight. You understand the depth of the pain, and You alone can bring true healing.
We repent on behalf of any agreement with racism, prejudice, or bitterness in this heart. These things are not of You, Lord, and we ask that You would cleanse and renew this mind by the power of Your Holy Spirit. *"Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me."* (Psalm 51:10, WEB). Break the power of offense and replace it with Your love, which casts out all fear.
Lord, we ask that You would forgive those who have wronged our brother/sister, just as You have forgiven us. Help them to release this pain into Your hands and trust You to bring justice and vindication in Your perfect timing. We pray that You would also soften the hearts of those who have caused harm, that they may come to repentance and seek reconciliation where possible.
Father, we rebuke any spiritual oppression or fear that has taken root because of these experiences. We declare that our brother/sister is redeemed by the blood of Jesus and is no longer under any curse or bondage. *"You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world."* (1 John 4:4, WEB). Fill them with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, and guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
We pray for divine connections—godly, Christ-centered relationships that will encourage and build up this beloved child of Yours. Surround them with brothers and sisters in Christ who will speak life, truth, and love into their situation. Help them to walk in forgiveness and freedom, that they may be a light in this world, reflecting Your grace to all people, regardless of race or background.
Lord, we ask that You would give them a heart that seeks unity and peace, for You have called us to be peacemakers. *"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God."* (Matthew 5:9, WEB). May they experience Your providence and progress in every area of their life, and may Your name be glorified through their testimony of healing and restoration.
We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
