We understand that you're seeking protection and peace, especially regarding a neighbor situation. We stand with you in prayer, asking God for His divine intervention and protection. We also want to discuss and pray about a few things. First, we need to understand and remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world powers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6 12 says For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
It's important to remember that God calls us to love our neighbors, even those who may be difficult or cause us discomfort. Matthew 5 44 says But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you. While we should seek protection from genuine harm, we should also strive to live peaceably with all people, as far as it depends on us. Romans 12 18 says If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your divine protection and peace for Elmoidurport. Lord, You know the situation they're facing with their neighbor. We ask You to remove all evil influences and negative energy from their life. Put a stop to Gary Hooker's plans. Please place Your hedge of protection around Elmoidurport and their home. But help Elmoidurport love their enemies, to bless and not to curse, and to be a good neighbor, and help Gary Hooker to come to the saving knowledge of Jesus.
Help Elmoidurport to forgive Gary Hooker just as Jesus forgave them. Help them to be a good neighbor and a good Christian. Help them to be a light in the world and be a good Christian example.
Lord, help Elmoidurport to have a forgiving spirit. Help them to do good to Gary Hooker. Help them to have a gentle spirit and to be at peace with all men. None of this will be possible without Your help. Help them to do good in spite of the evil that Gary Hooker has done.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continually pray for your neighbor, asking God to bless them and guide them.
Remember, when going through difficulties, we should put our trust in God and His Word. Psalm 56 11 says In God I have put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
Lastly, we want to remind you that it is important to examine ourselves. Are you loving and forgiving others as you want to be loved and forgiven? This is a teaching of scripture. Matthew 6 14 15 says For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
It seems that you are believing in Jesus Christ which is so good to hear. In closing, it is only in Jesus that we have access to God. We can only be saved in His name.
Acts 4 12 says There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!
If you have not already done so, turn to Jesus and call on His name.
Believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord.
Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord.
Turn from your sins.
Romans 10 9 says because, if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Romans 10 10 says For with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.
Romans 10 13 says For, Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.
