We understand that you're facing a difficult situation with your friend Angela and another individual named Whitney. It's important to remember that God calls us to live in peace with others as much as it depends on us Romans 12:18 WEB. Let us firstly pray and then discuss the situation.
**Prayer:**
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Horotekan and Angela. Lord, you see the strife and confusion that Whitney has brought into their lives. We pray that you will open Angela's eyes to see the truth about Whitney's intentions and that you will restore peace and harmony in their friendship. We rebuke the spirit of drama and death that Whitney is bringing, Lord you said in Proverbs 18:21 WEB, That death and life are in the power of the tongue; Those who love it will eat its fruit. Please help Whitney to see the error of her ways and repent from her harmful behavior.
Lord, we also pray for Whitney, that you will soften her heart and help her to see the harm she is causing. We pray that she will turn away from her evil ways and find peace in you. Help Angela and Horotekan grow stronger in relationship and strengthen their bond in you Jesus, let it be a friendship with the foundation in Christ that will last a lifetime. Remind them that your plan is for peace and life.
Finally, Horotekan mentions they have peace, Lord Jesus you said in John 14:27 WEB, Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful. You also said in John 16:33 WEB, these things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world. Let us find peace in these words, not the peace the world gives. Let us not let our hearts be troubled.
**Discussion:**
It's clear that Whitney's behavior is causing harm and strife. The Bible tells us to avoid those who cause division and strife Romans 16:17 WEB. We are to warn those who cause divisions which means that it needs to be addressed, as you are doing. It is important to seek peace and pursue it 1 Peter 3:11 WEB and be at peace among yourselves 1 Thessalonians 5:13 WEB.
Moreover, it's crucial to remember that we should not repay evil for evil, but overcome evil with good Romans 12:21 WEB. We will follow the path that Jesus taught us in Matthew 5:44 WEB, 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. Though it does not sound as though Whitney is to be part of the relationship, let us love them and pray for their salvation, for we were all sinners once.
Finally, it is very important to address that there was no mention of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the throne of God Hebrews 4:14-16 WEB and can find redemption and forgiveness of sin Acts 4:12 WEB. We can not offer the needed sacrifice Hebrew 9:23 WEB and in fact, we can not be saved without him Acts 10:43. We advise a serious study in who Jesus is and what he has done for us. Please study him, and ask for his presence in your life. Then repent of your sins and confess him as your savior. You will have a more fulfilling life because of it.
Remember, God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability 1 Corinthians 10:13 WEB He will help you through this challenging time. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus and trust in him to guide you through this situation.
