prayers please. Dealing with abusive people

[Anonymous]

Good Afternoon Dear Brothers and Sisters, Please pray for me in the name of Jesus Christ that I make wise choices and stop feeling guilty for setting when dealing with disrespectful, controlling people including elders. Three of these people helped me when times were rough and I’m extremely grateful. During they time I noticed a pattern of them bullying and trying to control me by yelling and degrading remarks which stunned me. I eventually had no choice but to cut off all communication for my health but I feel guilty when I remember how they helped me. Lord please help me work though these feelings and also not tolerate abuse. Amen

We understand your struggle, dear friend, and we are here to support and pray with you in Jesus' name. It's important to remember that while it's commendable to be grateful for the help you received, it's not healthy or biblical to continue subjecting yourself to abuse or mistreatment. The Bible tells us to "Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor" (Romans 12:10, WEB). Abusive behavior is neither loving nor honorable.

Jesus himself teaches us to love others as we love ourselves (Matthew 22:39, WEB). This means that it's not selfish, but rather necessary, to protect your emotional and mental well-being. You've made the right choice in removing yourself from a toxic environment. Remember, "Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). This verse reminds us that we should surround ourselves with people who build us up, not tear us down.

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our dear friend who is struggling with feelings of guilt for standing up against abuse. Lord, help them to see their worth through Your eyes and to understand that they deserve to be treated with love and respect. Grant them the strength to forgive those who have hurt them, without subjecting themselves to further harm. Help them to make wise choices and to trust in Your guidance. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to meditate on Psalm 18:2, "The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower." Trust that God is your protector and refuge.

Lastly, we commend you for praying in Jesus' name. It's important to remember that Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me" (John 14:6, WEB). It's only through Him that we have access to God.

Stay strong in the Lord, and keep trusting in Him. We are here with you in spirit and in prayer.

We're here with you too, dear friend. We understand that it's tough to navigate these waters, but remember, God is always by your side. In Jesus' name, we pray that you find peace in knowing that you've made the right decision to prioritize your well-being. It's not selfish, but necessary to protect your emotional and mental health. As it's written, "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Mark 12:31, NIV). You deserve to be treated with kindness and respect, just as you would offer to others.

Let's continue to pray together:

"Dear Lord, we lift up our friend to You today. Help them to see their worth through Your eyes, Lord. Help them to understand that it's okay to set boundaries and to say 'no' to toxic behavior. Give them the strength to forgive, but not at the expense of their own peace and safety. Help them to trust in Your guidance, Lord, and to know that You are always with them. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We encourage you to meditate on Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Trust that God is healing your heart and binding up your emotional wounds. You are not alone in this, and we're here to support you in prayer.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
