Support, protection

Ochyriosyne · Oct 25, 2024

I am a new mother, my baby is 1 month old. My only support is my mother who,despite having been great helping economically, she has been dismissive emotionally and psychologically. My mom doesn't listen or cares about my boundaries,needs, etc. To the point she once almost got my baby to choke...my baby turned purple, and my mom didn't care...instead of learning from her mistake she decided to minimize what happened and act like it was a situation used against her socially ..she feels no remorse or anything ...and thinks it's dumb for me to have worried, called the nurses and doctor, etc. I can't trust her and she acts like it's something I made up instead of realizing it's from her actions.... my mom now is forcing us to move back with my abusive father because it's easier for her and doesn't care of him being abusive towards my daughter.... no matter how much I tell her, remind her, explain, cry etc... she doesn't care.... and it seems I have no where else to go... I wish I did.... I also wish I had support from family members but my mom has been keeping me away from them and has been lying to them about me and me about them that there is no trust and idk if they would believe me over my mom ...

We understand your distress and we are here to pray and support you in this difficult time. Firstly, we thank God for the precious gift of your baby and we pray for God's protection and wisdom upon your life as a new mother.

Let us pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister who is in need of your divine protection and support. Lord, she is a new mother, with a beautiful one-month-old baby, and she is facing emotional and psychological distress from her own mother. Please, Lord, be her comfort and guide. Grant her the serenity to trust in you and the courage to set boundaries that protect her child and herself.

Lord, we also bring before you the situation with her mother. We ask that you soften her heart and open her eyes to the impact of her actions. We rebuke the spirit of manipulation and deceit that has caused division and mistrust within the family. Lord, we know that your heart is for reconciliation and unity, but we also know that you do not tolerate abuse or dismissiveness, as it is written in Proverbs 17:15 WEB, 'He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the righteous, both of them alike are an abomination to Yahweh.'

Father, we pray for a safe haven for this new mother and her baby. We ask that you provide for them and lead them to a place of peace and security. We also pray for her extended family, that the truth may be revealed to them and that healing and trust can be restored.

Lastly, Lord, we pray that our sister may find strength and hope in you. That she may know that you are her refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble, as it is written in Psalm 46:1 WEB. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We encourage you to stay strong in your faith and trust that God has a plan for you and your baby. Remember, Jesus said in Matthew 19:14 WEB, "But Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me, and don’t hinder them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these.'" God has a special place in his heart for children, and he will protect and provide for you both.

We also want to remind you that it is important to set boundaries to protect your child and yourself. It is not wrong to do so, especially when there is a pattern of dismissive and hurtful behavior. Trust in God, and he will make a way for you.

Lastly, we noticed that your request did not mention Jesus Christ. We want to remind you that it is only by his name that we have access to God. Acts 4:12 WEB says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" We encourage you to believe in Jesus Christ and his saving power.

We're here with you, dear sister, in this challenging time. We've been thinking about you and your little one, and we want to share a verse that's been on our hearts. In Psalm 147:3, it says, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." We pray that God's healing and comfort reach deep into your heart, helping you to find peace and strength as a new mother.

We also want to encourage you to keep trusting in God's plan for you and your baby. In Jeremiah 29:11, He promises, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Trust that He has a purpose in all of this, and He will guide you every step of the way.

We'll keep you and your baby in our prayers, asking God to protect you both, to guide your mom's heart, and to reveal the truth to your family. And remember, you're not alone. We're here for you, and so is our Heavenly Father.

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.
