Abusive Relationship

Thread Cover Image

Beloved of All
I am ### and have been in abusive relationships all my life. My current husband refers to me as white trash and a piece of crap, although I am the one who has worked ### years while he always relied on his parents to pay his way. He is ###, and stands to inherit millions which I am not entitled to. He throws up in my face that my parents made me white trash by forcing me to pay my own expenses and never providing financial support. He has threatened to kick me out several times. Because I haven’t rented in ### years, but have owned homes, I do not have rental references and am facing age discrimination, despite being gainfully employed. I have prayed in Jesus’s name for a financial miracle or a way out of this relationship but he hasn’t answered. Can someone pray for me and my daughters to find housing?

We are truly heartbroken to hear about the abusive situation you are in. Firstly, we want to commend you for your faith and trust in Jesus, as you have been praying in His name. It is only through Jesus as the way to God the Father. As it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus," (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB).

We want to remind you that God does not intend for you to live in an abusive situation. Marriage should be a picture of Christ and the church (Ephesians 5:25-33 WEB), where love, respect, and cherishing one another are the norms, just as Christ loves the church. To address the issue, the scriptures also say, "Likewise, you husbands, dwell with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered." (1 Peter 3:7 WEB).

Your husband's abusive behavior, manipulation with his words, and financial control, are all forms of evil. God does not condone or will this to happen. The Bible says, "Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ." (Ephesians 5:21 WEB). This means that both the husband and wife must submit each other out of love and respect for Christ. Submitting does not mean tolerating abuse. It is clear that your husband is not acting in a godly or loving manner, and his behavior is not a reflection of Christ's love for the church.

The Bible also says that a man and women become one flesh in marriage. The verb become is telling us that they were not one flesh before marriage. As well as Jesus teaching us that we are to love our neighbor. This means we should not be berating, belittling, or verbally abusing our spouse because we are one flesh. The scripture also says, "Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the requirements of God’s law." (Romans 13:10 NLT). This is part of God's law for marriage.

It is also important to seek godly counsel and support from local resources, such as your pastor, trusted Christian friends, or local shelters and support groups. They can provide practical help and guidance as you navigate this difficult situation. God can provide a way to provide for you as you are doing his will and seeking his face. The bible says, "Do not be anxious about anything. Instead, in every situation, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, tell your requests to God." (Philippians 4:6 WEB).

Let us not forget that Jesus loves you and your daughters dearly, and He wants the best for you. Trust in Him, and He will make a way.

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You, lifting up our sister and her daughters. Lord, You see the abuse and manipulation they are facing. We pray for Your divine protection and intervention. Provide a safe path for them to escape to a better situation and provide for their needs as they do Your will. Lord, we pray for a change of heart in her husband but also pray for the log to be removed from his eye. We pray that if he does not repent then we pray the log be removed from her eye. Help her gain clarity, take the log out of her eye and see clearly the situation she is in. Father, we pray that she or her daughters are not abused any further. We pray for godly counsel and support to surround them. Lord you have made this a promise in your word to provide for us and never forsake us. We claim these promises in Jesus' name.

In Jesus Christ's name, we pray, Amen.

Stay strong in the Lord, and remember that He is always with you. Do not let the words of your husband be the words of your heart. God loves you for who you are and Jesus died for your sins just as he did for everyone. The words of your husband are a reflection of what is in his heart and not in God's heart. Stand on the promises of God and his word.

Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.

Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.

We continue to lift you up in prayer, dear sister, ever since you shared with us the difficulties of your situation. Thank you for giving us the privilege to intercede on your behalf. We are honored that you have allowed us to stand in agreement with you in prayer.

If God has granted you a financial miracle or shown you a way out of this abusive relationship, we would be overjoyed to hear about it. Please share a praise report with us, so we can all rejoice together in God's faithfulness. If your request does not seem to have been answered yet, we want you to know that we are still here for you. Post your prayer request again, and we will persist in praying with you. Our faithful God hears your cries. As scripture encourages us “Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. I will help you. I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.” Isaiah 41:10. We believe that God, who is your loving father, is working things out for you even now. In the meantime, we continue to pray for you and your daughters.

We ask our Lord Jesus Christ in His mighty name, to work supernaturally in our sister's life, to provide her and her daughters a peaceful place to live and to help them transition out of the abusive relationship without any harm. We know that God is near to her and her daughters who are broken hearted and crushed in spirit. Psalms 34:18. We are also claiming Jesus’ promise that “In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?” (John 14:2), and we receive it in faith and expectantly wait for the answer knowing that “He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” Revelation 21:4.

May God bless you richly as you continue to seek Him and trust in Him for all your needs. Keep holding on to His steadfast love which never ceases and his mercies they are new every morning. Lamentations 3: 22-23.
