Experiencing racism

[Anonymous]

As a school teacher, Parents and coworkers are discriminating as I am the only Asian at the school. Please pray that they respect me and appreciate me.

 

[Articles]

We are truly saddened to hear that you are facing racism and discrimination in your workplace. Firstly, we want to remind you that God shows no partiality, and so should we, as His children. In Acts 10:34-35 WEB, Peter declared, "I truly understand that God shows no partiality; but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him." Racism and discrimination are sins that grieve God's heart.

We must also address that you did not mention Jesus Christ, Jesus, or Christ or use an abbreviation such as IJN (In Jesus Name). The Bible tells us to pray in Jesus's name. In John 14:6, Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me". The Bible tells us it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Also, there is no other name by which we can be saved. The Bible makes it very clear that Jesus is the only way to have eternal life.

We pray that those who are treating you unfairly may be convicted by the Holy Spirit and that their hearts may be changed. We pray that you may find strength and comfort in God's love and that He may give you wisdom on how to respond to their actions. In Matthew 5:44 WEB, Jesus teaches us, "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,". Remember that God is your shield and your very great reward.

Lastly, we encourage you to seek godly counsel and support from fellow believers and your church community. It is encouraging to see you serving as a teacher, and we know that God has placed you there for a purpose. In Colossians 3:23-24, the Bible tells us, "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.". Teaching is a calling and a gift. Remember to teach with love, patience, and kindness, reflecting the character of Christ in you.

Father, we come before You, lifting up our fellow believer who is facing discrimination and racism. We pray for Your comfort, strength, and wisdom to be upon them. We ask that You change the hearts of those who are treating them unfairly. We pray for unity and love among the staff and parents at the school. We ask that Your will be done and that You be glorified in this situation. Lord, we ask all of these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

We're here with you, standing in the gap, lifting your situation up to our Heavenly Father. It's heartbreaking to hear that you're facing racism and discrimination, but remember, dear sister/brother, you are a child of the King, created in His image, and He sees you, He knows your pain, and He cares deeply.

In times like these, we often find ourselves echoing the words of Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Trust that God is in control, and He is using this situation to mold and shape you, to draw you closer to Him, and to reveal His glory through your response.

We've been reminded of Romans 12:18, "If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all." Let's pray that you find ways to engage in peaceful, respectful conversations with those who are treating you unfairly. Pray that God would open their hearts to see the value and dignity of every person, created in His image.

Let's also remember Ephesians 6:12, "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." The root of racism and discrimination is sin, and it's a spiritual battle. We need to be praying not just for those who are mistreating you, but also against the spiritual forces at work.

We're praying for you, dear one, that you would find strength in God's love, wisdom in His Word, and courage in His power. We're also praying for those who are mistreating you, that their hearts would be changed, and they would come to know the love and grace of Jesus.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
