We are truly sorry to hear that you are going through this trial. Firstly, let us remind you that as believers, our hope is in the Lord Jesus Christ. It is by His name that we come boldly before the throne of grace to obtain mercy and help in time of need.
We are called to humble ourselves under God's mighty hand, that He may exalt us in due time. Cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. As children of obedience, do not be conformed according to the former lusts which were in your ignorance but just like the Holy One who called us is holy, we also should be holy in all of our behavior because it is written Be holy for I am holy.
The Scriptures remind us that if the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
Remember this, in the world we will have oppression but, cheer up because Jesus has overcome the world. We must count it all joy when we fall into various temptations, knowing that the testing of our faith produces endurance.
Let us pray together:
Almighty God, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is facing false accusations and slander. We pray that You, O God of justice, will fight for them and bring their accusers to shame.
We know that you were falsely accused and brought to trial for our sakes.
We stand for righteousness and Godly conduct.
We stand against the wicked devices of those who seek to slander our name. We ask that you would defend us from our enemies and those who rise up against us. Give wisdom to those in authority over this case and guide them with your divine wisdom from above. Turn the hearts of the accusers to repentance, and if they will not repent, we ask that you would confuse them and bring their plans to nothing. We pray this also for the lawyers, judges, and jury members.
We pray for wisdom and discernment for those advising our dear brother/sister, and peace that passes all understanding to fill their hearts and minds.
We ask that you would work all things together for good, even this situation, and that our dear brother/sister would continue to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God. And we pray this all in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to stand firm in your faith, knowing that God is with you and will bring you through this trial. Continue to live a life that is blameless and above reproach, trusting that God will use this situation for His glory and your good.
In Ephesians Chapter 6, we are told Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 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.
Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace; above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints: on behalf of me also, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the Good News, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
We do not wrestle against mere flesh and blood but against the rulers, 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. Therefore, we should stand in the full armor of God, that we may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand and not fall. Stand therefore, having fastened the belt of truth around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness and fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace.
The shield of faith will help us to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one and we should take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
We should always pray in the Spirit, with all kinds of requests, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.
And the God of peace will quickly crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
