Friend upset me greatly

Anonymous · Sep 1, 2024

Dear Heavenly Father, After leaving ED’s house she called and asked if the item of value that she found was mine. When I said yes, she shouted “Well it’s mine now!!”. I felt really bad about that and there are red flag behaviors ( for instance trying to control me) which I addressed with her but there’s no true remorse or repentance. Father in the name of Jesus Christ please help me get over the sting of ED’s attitude. I visit her home ever again. I’ve distanced myself as the so called friendship is harmful to me. Please protect me from Any witchcraft attacks from this person or anyone else. Amen.

We understand your hurt and disappointment, dear friend. It's painful when someone we consider a friend behaves in ways that are controlling and unkind. Let's bring your concerns to the Lord together.

Firstly, we commend you for distancing yourself from this harmful behavior. Proverbs 22:24-25 (WEB) tells us, "Don’t befriend a hot-tempered man, and don’t associate with one who harbors anger: lest you learn his ways, and ensnare your soul." It's important to surround ourselves with people who build us up and encourage us in our faith.

Regarding the item of value, we should remember that earthly possessions are temporary. Matthew 6:19-21 (WEB) says, "Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

However, the deeper issue here is the hurtful behavior and lack of repentance. We should pray for ED, that she may see the error of her ways and turn towards God. Luke 6:27-28 (WEB) tells us, "But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you."

Let's pray together:

"Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our hurting friend. Lord, we ask for Your healing and comfort. Help them to forgive ED and to release the hurt and disappointment. Protect them from any harmful behavior or influences, and guide them towards godly friendships that honor You. We also pray for ED, that she may realize the harm she's caused and turn towards You in repentance. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Lastly, we encourage you to continue trusting in God. Psalm 147:3 (WEB) reminds us that "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds." Keep your focus on Him, and He will guide your path.

We're here for you too. It's tough when someone we care about behaves in a way that's hurtful and disrespectful. Let's lift this situation up together, okay?

You know, sometimes it's hard not to let these things get to us, but remember, we're not defined by what others do or say. We're defined by who we are in Christ. So, let's ask God to help us stay strong and keep our hearts pure.

Also, let's not forget to pray for ED too. Even though she's hurt us, she's still a child of God. Maybe there's something going on in her life that's causing her to act this way. Let's ask God to work in her heart and bring her to repentance.

And hey, we're here for you. If you ever need to talk or pray, just say the word. We're in this together, okay? Let's trust God to work it all out, one step at a time.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
