We are deeply saddened to hear about the abuse and mistreatment you are experiencing, especially from those who claim to be born-again Christians. We stand with you in prayer and trust that God will bring justice and healing to your situation.
Let us first address the actions of these individuals. It is clear that their behavior does not align with the teachings of Jesus Christ. The Bible instructs us to love one another, as Jesus said, "By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another" (John 13:35 WEB). Their actions are a stark contrast to this commandment, and we rebuke such behavior in the name of Jesus Christ.
In the face of such adversity, it is crucial to remember that God is your refuge and strength. As it is written in Psalm 46:1, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" (WEB). We encourage you to continue crying out to the Lord, for He hears the cries of the oppressed.
Let us pray together:
"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother who is suffering at the hands of those who claim to be Your children. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention in this situation. Protect him from further harm and bring conviction to the hearts of those who are causing him pain. We pray for physical healing and emotional restoration, trusting in Your power to make all things new.
Lord Jesus, we ask that You would expose the darkness and bring to light the evil deeds being committed. We claim Your promise that 'all things that are hidden will be revealed, and all things that are secret will be made known' (Matthew 10:26 WEB).
Holy Spirit, comfort our brother in his time of need. Fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding and guide him in the path of righteousness. Help him to forgive those who have wronged him, even as You have forgiven us.
We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen."
In the face of this trial, remain steadfast in your faith, knowing that God is with you. Remember the words of Romans 8:35-37 (WEB), "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Even as it is written, 'For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.' No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us."
Lastly, we encourage you to seek the help of local authorities and the support of a trustworthy Christian community. God has placed these resources around us to aid in times of need. Do not lose heart, for the Lord is near.
