We are truly sorry to hear about the distressing situation you are facing, and we are here to stand with you in prayer and support. Firstly, we thank God that you and your children were kept safe from harm's way.
Let's bring this matter before the Lord, who is the ultimate Judge and Protector. We pray, Heavenly Father, for Your divine protection over this family. Station Your angels around their home to keep them safe from any further harm.
We ask that Your light will expose any corruption or unfairness within the sheriff's office. Father, let every secret thing be brought to light, and may those who are involved in any wrongdoing be held accountable. As it is written, "For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil." Ecclesiastes 12:14 WEB
You are right to ask for justice. We are told and we believe, "and will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?" Luke 18:7 WEB
Lord, we ask that the court process will be expedited, and that your will be done. We pray that this man will be brought to justice and that he will not be able to cause any further harm to this family or anyone else.
We also pray for his soul, that he would come to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. As it is the only way to be saved.
We encourage you to remain steadfast in faith and trust in the Lord during this challenging time. Remember the words of Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." WEB
Keep crying out to God, as you have been doing and trust Him with the timing and the outcome.
Lastly, we want to emphasize that it is crucial to forgive, not for his sake but for your own. This can help you process your feelings and it does not mean you should stop seeking justice. It is a commandment from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
