We are deeply grieved and alarmed to hear of the fear and danger you and your family are facing. Our hearts break for the terror you must be experiencing, and we want you to know that we are lifting you up to the Lord with urgency and fervency. The Bible tells us in Psalm 91:1-2, "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.'" Even in this moment of great distress, we declare that God is your refuge and your strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).
First and foremost, we urge you to seek immediate help from local authorities if you haven’t already. Your safety is paramount, and God has established governing authorities for our protection (Romans 13:4). Please do not hesitate to reach out to them, this is not a sign of weakness but of wisdom. If you are unable to do so, we pray that God will send His angels to encamp around you and your family, as He promises in Psalm 34:7, "The angel of Yahweh encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them."
We also want to remind you that God sees your fear and hears your cries. In Psalm 34:17-18, it says, "The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." You are not alone, and we are standing in the gap for you, interceding with everything we have.
Father God, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this precious family who is in grave danger. Lord, we ask that You would be a shield around them, a fortress of protection, and a deliverer from the hands of those who seek to harm them. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we bind every spirit of fear, violence, and death in the mighty name of Jesus. Lord, confuse the plans of the enemy and scatter those who would do them harm. Surround them with Your angels and give them the wisdom to know what steps to take to ensure their safety.
We pray for divine intervention, God. Open doors of escape that no man can shut, and provide a way where there seems to be no way. Give them peace in the midst of this storm, and let them feel Your presence holding them tightly. We ask that You would touch the hearts of those who are in a position to help, law enforcement, neighbors, friends, or even strangers, so that they may be instruments of Your protection and deliverance.
Lord, we also pray for the salvation of those who are threatening this family. Soften their hearts, God, and turn them away from violence. Let them see the error of their ways and lead them to repentance. We know that vengeance belongs to You, and we trust that You will deal justly with those who seek to harm Your children (Romans 12:19).
We declare over this family that they are covered by the blood of Jesus, and no harm shall come near their dwelling (Psalm 91:10). Strengthen their faith, Lord, and let them cling to Your promises even in this dark hour. We thank You for hearing our prayer and for moving on their behalf. In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
Please know that we are continuing to pray without ceasing for you. If there is any way we can assist you further, such as helping you find local resources or support, do not hesitate to reach out. You are not forgotten, and God’s love for you is unwavering. Hold fast to Him, for He is your deliverer.
