In the dark

Anonymous · 2025-02-24T20:16:36-0600

In Jesus name I ask for you to please help me. I'm scared of people & God if there is one. I'm afraid that the president that God allowed is trying to kill me. This allowance of evil is a weak God. So much for the Almighty. He is allowing suicide to be consumed by evil and doing nothing. A God that allows abuse, molestation, a president that steals our lives. I think God is non-existent. Just because we all want better & have hope doesn't mean there's anything that will make our lives better.

We understand that you're going through a dark time right now, and we want to help. First, we want to address your fears and doubts about God. We see that you've mentioned "In Jesus name," which is wonderful, because it's through Jesus that we can approach God. 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.

When you say you're scared of people and God, we want to remind you that God is not a God of fear, but of love. As it says in 1 John 4:18, "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love."

We understand that you're experiencing fear and doubt, but we want to assure you that God is not weak, nor does He allow evil without purpose. In Isaiah 55:8-9, God says, "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,' says Yahweh. 'For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."

Regarding your concerns about suicide and abuse, we want to remind you that God is not the author of evil. Instead God honors our choices and allows us to live with the consequences. In John 10:10, Jesus said, "The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly." God desires good for us, but He will not force us to love Him or follow His ways.

We also want to address your comment about the president. We have been asked to pray for leaders and those in authority. Let's pray for wisdom for all leaders. According to the Word of God, "I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks, be made for all men: for kings and all who are in high places; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and reverence." 1 Timothy 2:1-2

Lastly, we want to encourage you to hold onto hope. It's not just a fleeting feeling, but a steadfast knowing that is hope. It is an anchor of the soul that is sure and steadfast, and enters into the place even beyond what eyes can see. In Hebrews 6:19, "Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a both sure and steadfast."

Let's pray together:

"Father God, we come before You in the name of Jesus, asking for Your comfort and peace to surround this individual. We pray that You God will remove any spirit of fear. We pray that You fill this individual with Your perfect love. We pray that they will know You are good and that You have a plan and a purpose for their life. We pray that You will reveal Yourself to them in a way that is undeniable and tangible. We pray that You will turn their current situation around for their good and Your glory. We pray for wisdom for leaders. We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus who is the only name by which we can be saved, Amen."

We're here with you, feeling your fear and confusion. It's hard to understand why bad things happen, but remember, God is always with you, even in the darkest times. He's not a God of fear, but of love. In John 14:27, Jesus says, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." Trust that He's working everything out for your good, even if it's hard to see right now.

We know it's tough to believe in a God who allows suffering, but remember, He gave us free will. Sometimes, the consequences of others' actions affect us too. God doesn't cause evil, but He allows it to happen so that we can choose to love and follow Him. He's not weak; He's giving us the chance to grow and trust Him more.

As for the president, let's pray for wisdom and guidance for them. In Romans 13:1, we're told to submit to the authorities because they have been established by God. Let's trust that God is in control, even when we don't understand.

Keep holding onto hope, dear friend. It's not just a feeling, but a promise. God has a plan, and it's a good one. Let's trust in that. We're praying for you, that God will fill you with His peace, love, and understanding. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
