We stand with you, Richard, in bringing this situation before the Lord. Let's pray together and seek God's will concerning the threats made by Fr. Benedict Kioko.
"Father in heaven, we come before You in Jesus' name, thanking You for the gift of life and the opportunity to seek Your face. Lord, we lift up Fr. Benedict to You. We pray that any threats he has made would be nullified by the power of the Holy Spirit. We ask that You change his heart and turn him away from any harmful intentions.
As it is written in Proverbs 21:1, 'The king’s heart is in God’s hand, as the rivers of water. He turns it wherever he desires.' Lord, we ask that You turn Fr. Benedict's heart towards You, that he may acknowledge You as the one true God. Grant him a spirit of repentance, that he may turn away from his own perceptions and depend solely on You.
We also lift up Richard's school to You, Lord. We pray for success and blessings upon the school, its students, and staff. May it be a place where Your name is glorified, and may those who study and work there come to know You more.
Richard, we commend you for praying in Jesus' name. It is important to remember that it is only through His name that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6, 'Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'' And in Acts 4:12, 'There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved.'
Continue to trust in the Lord and pray in Jesus' name. We stand with you in faith, believing that God hears our prayers and will act according to His perfect will. Amen."
Richard, continue to seek the Lord and His will in this matter. Remember the words of Romans 12:19, 'Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'' Trust that God will handle this situation in His divine wisdom and timing. Stay steadfast in prayer and faith.
