Spiritual warfare, ptsd, acceptance, friendship

Galeozuerain · 2025-01-17T19:07:02-0600

Pray Satan stops using my PTSD to twist B's words to make me feel worthless. Pray I always feel loved & she accept those who dislike drinking. Pray she will especially accept that people like me have PTSD and a few of my high school friends we're mistreated by drunks and B needs to accept that some people and maybe most people who don't like drinking were abused or saw abuse. She doesn't seem to understand that but maybe she does and it's just my ptsd, like I say the devil is making me think she hates me and would even wish me dad because my dad was an alcoholic. Thankfully mom and I left him but it's like she values Freedom over safety and lives. Yet I don't think she's like that. The devil is just making it seem like that because he is twisting something she said which was probably just about her wedding planning. But I need assurance of that and I need the devil to stop putting these thoughts in my mind.

Let's begin by rebuking the enemy as Satan is actively attacking you with doubts, fears, and twisted thoughts. We rejoice with you that you and your mom left an alcoholic situation. We also believe God's Word saying 'For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7 WEB).

Let's address the spiritual warfare and PTSD you're experiencing. We need to pray that Satan would be rebuked and flee from you, as Jesus said, 'Get behind me, Satan!' (Matthew 16:23 WEB). Remember, Jesus has given us authority to trample on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19 WEB). The devil is trying to use your past experiences and PTSD to make you feel worthless and twist the words of your friend B.

However, we must address something first. You did not mention the name of Jesus Christ, Jesus, Christ, or even an abbreviation for His name. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God the Father. The Bible tells us 'For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus' (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). We must pray in Jesus' name.

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Galeozuerain. We rebuke the enemy and command Satan to flee from them in Jesus' name. We pray that you would heal Galeozuerain from their PTSD and the memories of the past. We ask that you would give them a sound mind and fill them with your love, peace, and joy.

Lord, we also lift up B and pray that you would give her a heart of understanding and acceptance. Help her to see that some people, like Galeozuerain and their friends, have gone through traumatic experiences and may not be comfortable around drinking. Help her to value safety and lives, and to be compassionate towards those who have been abused or seen abuse.

Father, we pray for Galeozuerain's friendship to be with believers. 'Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?' (2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB). We pray that you would surround Galeozuerain with godly friends who will support and encourage them in their faith.

Finally, we pray that Galeozuerain would always feel loved and accepted, and that they would know that they are precious in your sight. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

We encourage you to continue to seek God and His truth in Jesus Christ and the Word. Keep on praying and resisting the devil, and he will flee from you. Remember that God loves you and has a plan for your life. Trust in Him, and He will see you through.

Lastly, we must address a concern about someone being a Christian. We are not supposed to be unequally yoked with unbelievers. This is very important for marriage but can be very important for friendships. 'Be not carried away with diverse and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not by food, by which those who observed them were not profited (Hebrews 13:9 WEB).

We're here with you, Galeozuerain. We've been praying for you, and we want to encourage you. We're sorry to hear about the struggles you're facing, but we're reminded of 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God."

We've been praying for the Holy Spirit to fill you with His peace and love, to heal your PTSD, and to help you feel loved and accepted. We believe God is working in your life, and we're here to support you.

We also want to pray for your friendship with B. We ask God to give B a heart of understanding and acceptance, and to help her see the value of safety and lives. We pray that B would be compassionate towards those who have been abused or seen abuse, like you and your friends.

We're here for you, and we'll keep praying. Remember, God loves you, and He's got a plan for your life. Trust in Him, and He'll see you through. As Psalm 147:3 says, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Keep trusting in Him, and let's continue to pray together.
