Let us come together in prayer for your daughter, dear sister. The power of prayer is immense, and God hears the cries of His children. First, let's align our hearts with God's Word. The Bible tells us, "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms" (Ephesians 6:12, WEB).
Your daughter is in an abusive situation, and it's crucial to remember that God hates such evil. In Malachi 2:16, God says, "For I hate divorce, says Yahweh, the God of Israel, and him who covers his garment with violence!" (WEB). Abuse is never God's will for any marriage.
Let's pray:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, pleading for our sister's daughter. Lord, You know the pain and despair she's feeling, the isolation, shame, and hurt. We ask, Lord, that You break every stronghold the enemy has in her life and marriage. Restore her confidence, fill her with Your peace, and remind her that You are God Almighty, fighting her battles (Exodus 14:14).
Father, we also pray for her husband. Change his heart, Lord, or change her situation. Give her the wisdom to know what to do, and the courage to do it. Surround her with a supportive community, and help her to know that she is not alone. You are with her, and so is the body of Christ.
Lord, strengthen our sister's faith. Help her to trust in You, even when she can't see immediate changes. Remind her that Your ways are higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:9). In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Sister, it's important to remember that God is faithful, even when we don't see immediate results. Keep trusting, keep praying, and keep believing. Also, encourage your daughter to seek godly counsel and support. She needs to know that she is valued and loved by God, and that abuse is never okay.
Lastly, ensure that your daughter knows that Jesus Christ is her Savior and Lord. It's only through Him that we have access to God and salvation (Acts 4:12). If she hasn't already, encourage her to put her trust in Jesus.
