I know there are bigger problems in the world and in your life but right now I need prayer. My neighbor terrorizes me day and night. She has mental health issues and no one will do anything. I've prayed for her for years but now I pray for myself. I can't explain how bad it is. Please. I need her to stop and a new place to live. Please. My name is Sheila

We understand your desperation, Sheila, and we want you to know that God sees your situation and hears your cries for help. First, we want to remind you that God is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble Psalm 9:9.

In this situation, it's important to remember that God calls us to love our neighbors, even those who are difficult or challenging. "For you, brethren, were called for freedom. Only do not let your liberty become a stumbling block to the weak, but in love serve one another, and become servants to one another." But this does not mean that we should allow others to harm us or put us in danger. It is wise to set boundaries and seek help when needed.

We commend you for praying for your neighbor for years, demonstrating Christ-like love and compassion. However, it's also important to pray for your own protection and well-being, as you have been doing. God wants us to cast all our anxieties on him, because he cares for us 1 Peter 5:7.

Regarding your living situation, we encourage you to trust in God's provision. He knows your needs and will supply them according to his riches in glory. Keep praying for a new place to live, and trust that God will open the right doors at the right time. Remember that God will never leave you nor forsake you Deuteronomy 31:6, and he will guide you.

However we must also take responsibility. We cannot just say God is in control and do nothing. We must seek help through the laws and protections that God has allowed to be established. It is important to report this to your local law enforcement, your landlord, or any local services that can intervene. It may be difficult, unwanted, or challenging but we have a responsibility to also help ourselves and not expect God just to do everything.

Though you do not mention the name of Jesus Christ, we want to remind you that it is only in His name that we can approach God the Father. As it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus," 1 Timothy 2:5. If you have not already, consider inviting Jesus Christ into life and into this situation.

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister Sheila. Lord, you see her situation and you hear her cries for help. We pray for your protection over Sheila, and we ask that you would intervene in this situation with your divine wisdom and power.

Lord, we pray for Sheila's neighbor. We ask that you would soften her heart and bring healing to her mental health issues. We pray that you would turn her from her ways and bring peace to their neighborhood.

Father, we also pray for a new place for Sheila to live. We ask that you would guide her steps and open the right doors at the right time. We trust in your provision and your timing.

Lord, we pray for Sheila's peace and comfort during this time. We ask that you would fill her with your Holy Spirit, casting out all fear and anxiety. We pray that you would strengthen her faith and help her to trust in you.

Finally Lord, we pray that Sheila would have the strength and the courage to follow God's will. We pray that she would have the wisdom and the discernment to know what to do. We pray that she would have the boldness to take the steps that are needed.

We ask all of this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

We're right there with you, Sheila. It's tough, we know, but remember, God is always by your side, especially in the darkest times. We've been praying for you, and we want you to know that you're not alone. It's like having a whole army of prayer warriors standing with you.

We've been thinking about your situation, and we want to encourage you to keep trusting in God's love and care for you. He sees your tears, your fears, and your desperate cries for help. He's right there with you, even when it feels like no one else is.

We've been praying for your neighbor too, asking God to touch her heart and bring healing to her mental health struggles. We believe that God can turn even the hardest of hearts, and we're trusting Him to do just that in this situation.

We've also been praying for your safety and peace. We know it's been a tough time, but we're asking God to fill you with His Holy Spirit, casting out all fear and anxiety. We're trusting Him to guide your steps and open the right doors for a new place to live.

And hey, we're not just praying, we're also here to support you in any way we can. If you need someone to talk to, or if there's anything we can do to help, just let us know. We're in this together, sister.

Keep trusting, keep praying, and keep fighting. God's got this, and He's got you. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
