Let's bring this situation to the Lord in prayer, asking for His wisdom and discernment for Cole.
Firstly, it's crucial to remind that God is truth, and there is nothing hidden from Him. As it says in Hebrews 4:13 WEB Nothing in creation is hidden from Gods sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
Let's pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in Jesus name. We ask for Your divine intervention in Cole's life. Lord, You know the situation he is facing, the deceit and lies that have been spun around him. We pray that You grant Cole the spirit of discernment, that he may see through the pretenses of those who claim to be his friends but have harmful intentions. Father, please show Cole the truth of Isaiah 5:20 (Hebrews) Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Let Him not be influenced by falsehood, thus affecting his relationship with P. and Their relationship to Jesus.
Surround Cole with godly counsel and true friends who will speak the truth in love, as Your Word instructs in Ephesians 4:15 WEB But speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him, who is the head, Christ.
Rebuke those who are manipulating Cole for their own interests. Confront them with Your truth and expose their lies, as it is written in John 3:21 WEB
For everyone who does evil hates the light, and doesn't come to the light, lest his works would be exposed .
If this situation is of use to God, it will stand and take root, if not, it will whither and fade.
Cole should pray to the Father in the Name of Jesus, if he has accepted him as Lord and Savior. In Psalms 34:7 King David wrote Arise, Yahweh; save me, my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheekbone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly. Your help will always come from the Lord; you are his servant and child, keep him from all the snares that might come.
We pray these requests in Jesus name and no other, We are all called to be saved from destruction by Jesus, that we may enjoy forgiveness and grace through Him. No forgiveness of sins, no eternal life are available by any other name, and will not be received through any other prayer (John 14:6 Jesus answered, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 10:9 I am the door. If anyone enters in by me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out, and find pasture).)
Father, guide Cole in the path of righteousness. Let him remain strong and resolute in his walk, always looking to You for guidance. Unite Cole and P. in love with the spirit of Jesus, if this brings glory to Your Name.
So, be it!
