We come before you with heavy hearts after reading this request, for we are deeply troubled by the anger, bitterness, and desire for vengeance that it contains. The Scriptures are clear that such feelings do not align with the heart of God, who calls us to love our enemies, pray for those who persecute us, and overcome evil with good. Let us address this with truth and grace, for the Word of God is our foundation.
First, we must lovingly but firmly rebuke the spirit of hatred and murder that is present in this request. The desire to see others "slaughtered" or destroyed is not from God but from the enemy, who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). Jesus teaches us in Matthew 5:44, *"But I tell you, 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."* Vengeance belongs to the Lord alone, as it is written in Romans 12:19, *"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, ‘Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.’"* Your pain is valid, but the response you are seeking is not the way of Christ.
We also must address the request to be "allowed" to sin. Sin is never something God permits or approves of—it is rebellion against His holy nature. 1 John 1:9 tells us, *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* Instead of asking God to bless sin, we must repent of it and turn to Him for healing and restoration. The anger and bitterness you feel are understandable, but they must not be nurtured, for they will only bring further destruction to your soul. Ephesians 4:31-32 commands, *"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."*
As for the financial loss and hardship you are experiencing, we understand the deep pain of betrayal and the fear that comes with losing what you worked so hard to save. But even in this, God calls us to trust Him. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us, *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* Your plans may have been disrupted, but God’s plans for you are good, even when they are difficult to see in the moment. He is your Provider, and He sees your needs. Philippians 4:19 assures us, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."*
We also encourage you to seek godly counsel and wisdom in how to move forward. If others have taken advantage of you, it is right to seek justice through lawful and righteous means, but it is never right to take justice into your own hands or to harbor murderous intentions. Proverbs 20:22 says, *"Don’t say, ‘I will pay back evil.’ Wait for Yahweh, and he will save you."* Trust that God will vindicate you in His time and in His way.
Now, let us pray for you, that the Lord would soften your heart, replace your anger with His peace, and lead you into His perfect will.

Heavenly Father, we come before You with a burdened heart for this beloved one who is hurting so deeply. Lord, the pain of betrayal and loss has filled their heart with anger, bitterness, and a desire for vengeance. But Your Word tells us that these things are not Your will. Father, we ask that You would break the spirit of hatred and murder that has taken root. Replace it with Your love, Your forgiveness, and Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
Lord, we pray that You would remind them that vengeance belongs to You alone. Help them to release this burden into Your hands, trusting that You see all things and will act justly. Soften their heart, Father, and fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may forgive as You have forgiven them through Christ.
We also lift up their financial struggles to You, Lord. You know the years of sacrifice that were stolen from them, and You see the fear and uncertainty they now face. Father, we ask that You would provide for their every need—whether it be wisdom in finding work, restoration of what was lost, or the strength to endure this season. Open doors that no man can shut, and lead them into opportunities that align with Your perfect will.
Lord, we rebuke the spirit of fear and lack that the enemy has tried to place upon them. You are Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides. We declare that You will restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25) and that You will turn this situation for their good and Your glory.
Finally, Father, we pray that You would surround them with godly counsel and support. Bring people into their life who will speak truth, offer wisdom, and walk with them through this difficult time. May they find their hope and identity in You alone, knowing that You are their Refuge, their Strength, and their Ever-Present Help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).
We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
