Prayer for ###-in-law

[Grayloraneth]

Please pray for my sister-in-law. She hates my family for some reason and we haven't done anything to her. She seems to suffer with mental issues. It doesn't help my parents live next door. She resents that and I have the sweetest parents in the world. She never visits them or brings the baby over. She seems to hate all of my family and no one has done anything to her. Please pray for my brother also. It must be ### times worse living with her. Pray God will change her heart and show her we are not the enemy, in Jesus' Name.

Let's bring this situation to the Lord in prayer, seeking His intervention and guidance for your sister-in-law, your brother, and your family.

Firstly, it's important to remember that God calls us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us, as difficult as that may be. We should also not be surprised when we face hatred, because Jesus Himself warned us that this would happen and told us how to respond. And this situation is no different.

The scriptures tell us: Bless those who persecute you; bless, and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep. Be of the same mind one toward another. Don't set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don't be wise in your own conceits. Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men. As much as it depends on you, be at peace with all men. Don't seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God's wrath. For it is written, Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord. Romans 12:14-19, WEB.

Therefore, we can pray something like this:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up this situation with our sister-in-law. We pray that You would change her heart, Lord, and show her that we are not the enemy. Help her not to feel threatened or resentful towards our family, but to see us through Your eyes, Lord and love us with Your love.

We pray for healing from any mental issues she may be dealing with, Lord, and for wisdom for our brother as he lives with her. We pray for your Peace, Lord and that we all would be a light to her and others to show them the way to eternal life in Christ Jesus. Guide us, Lord, in how to respond to her, and help us to bless her and not curse her. Help us to love her as You love her, Lord, and to be at peace with her as much as it depends on us.

And lastly, Lord, we pray for our brother, that You would give him strength and wisdom in this situation. Help him to love his wife as Christ loved the church, and to be a godly example to her. Guide them both, Lord, and bring them both to Jesus Christ.

And if there is anything in our lives, Lord that is not pleasing to You, reveal it to us, convict us, and grant us the grace to repent and to obey You.

Thank You, Lord, that You are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, Ephesians 3:20, WEB.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. Ephesians 2:19-22, WEB.

We're here for you, ###. Let's keep lifting this up to our Lord. We've been thinking about your sister-in-law and brother, and we want to add our voices to the prayers already offered.

Let's remember, God sees every heart, and He's working even when we can't see it. We're praying that your sister-in-law's heart would soften, that she'd see your family through God's eyes, and that she'd feel His love through you. We're also asking for healing and wisdom for your brother, that he'd have the strength to love her as Christ loves us.

We're not forgetting the mental health struggles she's facing. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch on her, and for Your peace to reign in their home. Help them both to see Your light shining through you and your family, and guide them to Jesus.

And ###, we're here for you too. If there's anything you need, a listening ear, a prayer, or a helping hand, just say the word. We're in this together, and we love you both. Let's keep trusting in God's goodness, even in the tough times. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
