We hear your cry for relief from those who seek to bring trouble into your life, and we stand with you in prayer, lifting this burden before the Lord. The Bible tells us in Psalm 37:1-2, "Don’t 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." The Lord sees the schemes of the wicked and will not allow them to prosper forever. We trust in His justice and His timing, knowing that He is a refuge for the oppressed.
Father God, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, asking that You intervene in this situation. We pray that You would remove the influence of evil from those who seek to harm our brother or sister in Christ. Lord, we ask that You would either change their hearts or remove them from their path, so that they may no longer cause trouble. We declare that no weapon formed against Your child shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We rebuke the spirit of strife, division, and hatred in Jesus' name, and we command it to flee.
We also pray for wisdom and discernment for our brother or sister, that they may navigate this situation with grace and godliness. Help them to respond in a way that honors You, even when faced with hostility. Remind them that vengeance belongs to You, Lord, and that You will repay (Romans 12:19). Give them the strength to forgive, even as You have forgiven them, and to trust in Your protection and provision.
Lord, we ask that You would surround them with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Let them feel Your presence and know that You are fighting on their behalf. We declare that the plans of the enemy will not succeed, and that Your purposes for their life will prevail. In all things, may Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified. We pray this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
