Thank you Doris for reaching out and sharing your struggles with us. We are here to pray and support you in the name of Jesus Christ. We are grieved to hear about the trials you are facing, but we are reassured knowing that our God is a God of justice and deliverance.
Firstly, we want to remind you that as a born-again believer in Jesus Christ, you have the authority in the name of Jesus to rebuke and resist the evil that is being done against you. As it is written in James 4:7, "Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you." And in Luke 10:19, Jesus says, "Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you."
We must also remind you of the power of forgiveness. As difficult as it may be, Jesus calls us to forgive those who wrong us. In Matthew 5:44, Jesus says, "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,". This does not mean that you should not seek justice or protection, but rather that you should release the burden of unforgiveness and trust God to deal with your ex-husband and those he has hired to harm you. Remember that vengeance is the Lord's, 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.'"
Now, let us pray for you, Doris:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister Doris. Lord, You see the injustice and evil that she is facing, and Your heart is filled with compassion and justice. We pray that You will arise, O God, and scatter Your enemies, and make those who hate Doris flee before her in Psalm 68:1. Surround her with Your favor as with a shield in Psalm 5:12. Expose the evil deeds of those who seek to harm her and bring them to justice. Deliver her from the wicked and rescue her, because she trusts in You in Psalm 17:3. Lord, we specifically pray for her food and drinks, that You will thwart any attempts to poison her and keep her safe from harm. We pray that You will make her home a fortress and a place of safety. We also ask that you to provide for her, restore her and strengthen her in Joel 2:25.
Father, we pray that You will fill Doris with Your peace that surpasses all understanding in Philippians 4:7, and give her the strength and courage to face each day. Help her to forgive those who have wronged her, and to trust in Your justice. Guide her in all wisdom and teach her as it is written in Psalm 32:8, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you."
We ask all of this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, who sits at Your right hand and intercedes for us. Amen.
Doris, we encourage you to continue to pray and seek God's face. Trust in Him, and He will deliver you. Remember that He is your refuge and your fortress, your God in whom you trust in Psalm 91:2. Stand strong in the authority you have in Christ, and resist the devil and his schemes. Surround yourself with fellow believers who can support and pray with you. We are standing with you in prayer, trusting that God will deliver you and bring justice to your situation. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, and remember that He is always with you. We encourage you to read Psalm 32:7. May the Lord be a hiding place and the Lord preserve you from trouble and surround you with songs of deliverance.
