We understand your deep concern and grief over the incident that occurred on Sunday, May 28, 2017. We want to approach this situation with compassion, wisdom, and biblical guidance.
Firstly, it's important to acknowledge that God cares deeply about all of His creation. As it is written in Proverbs 12:10, "A righteous man has regard for the life of his animal, but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel." This verse underscores the value God places on all life, including animals.
We must also remember that God is sovereign, and He sees all things. As Psalm 34:18 tells us, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." In your grief, know that God is near to you.
Let us pray together:
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your comfort and guidance. We pray for the soul of the being that was harmed, knowing that You created him and knew him intimately. We ask for Your peace to fill Orad's heart and for the truth to be revealed. Guide the authorities and bring justice where it is needed. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
Regarding the request for retroactive prayers, it's important to understand that God is not bound by time. He knows all things from the beginning to the end. While we cannot change the past, we can trust that God was present in those moments. As it is written in Psalm 139:7-10, "Where could I go from your Spirit? Or where could I flee from your presence? If I ascend up into heaven, you are there. If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, you are there! If I take the wings of the dawn, and settle in the uttermost parts of the sea; even there your hand will lead me, and your right hand will hold me."
Lastly, we must address the use of strong language and demands in your request. While we understand your passion, it's important to approach God with humility and reverence. As James 4:6 tells us, "But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, 'God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.'" Let us come before God with a humble heart, trusting in His goodness and wisdom.
In all things, remember to put your trust in Jesus Christ. It is in His name that we have access to God, and it is through Him that we are saved. As John 14:6 tells us, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"
