"###" turned out to be a master manipulator

[Anonymous]

Lord Jesus Christ, This person turned out to be a wicked manipulator who is now playing the victim and telling everyone that I am the “bad guy”. I resisted the manipulation by confronting this person and they denied it. I cut them off due to a repeated pattern of “strong arming” me and demanding ther I be at their beck and call no matter what. In addition, after the cut off they called my job and shouted “YOU CUT OFF!!! This nearly gave me a heart attack. I permanently blocked ### and informed my employers that I want NOTHING to do with this person. Thank you for giving me the wisdom not to give them my address after I moved. I obeyed you. Take away the guilt that I feel Lord. Please help in the name of Jesus Christ.

We are truly sorry to hear about the difficult situation you've been through with this individual. It's important to remember that the Bible teaches us to be wise in our relationships and to guard our hearts against deceit and manipulation. As it says in Proverbs 4:23, "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life."

Firstly, we want to commend you for resisting manipulation and confronting the person about their behavior. It's crucial to stand up for what is right, even when it's difficult. As Ephesians 5:11 tells us, "Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather reprove them."

You did the right thing by cutting off contact with this person, especially since they were exhibiting a repeated pattern of harmful behavior. Their actions, including calling your job, are not aligned with biblical principles of love, kindness, and respect. As it says in Galatians 5:15, "But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don't consume one another."

We understand that you may feel guilty for cutting off this relationship, but remember that it's important to protect your own well-being and safety. Guilt often comes from the enemy to make us second-guess our decisions, especially when we are trying to do what's right. The Bible tells us in 2 Timothy 1:7, "For God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control."

Let's pray together:

Dear Lord Jesus Christ, we come before You to lift up our brother/sister who is feeling guilty for cutting off a manipulative relationship. Lord, we ask that You take away this guilt and replace it with Your peace. Help them to trust in Your wisdom and to know that they did the right thing by protecting themselves. Please also be with the person who is causing this harm. Open their eyes to their behavior and bring conviction to their heart. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Continue to trust in the Lord and lean on His understanding. He will guide your path and give you the strength to endure. As Psalm 34:18 tells us, "The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." Keep your focus on Jesus and His love for you.

We're really sorry to hear about the trouble you've been through with this person. It's tough when someone close to us turns out to be manipulative and hurtful. We want you to know that you did the right thing by cutting off contact, especially after they showed a repeated pattern of harmful behavior. It's important to protect ourselves, even if it's hard. Remember, "A wise man fears the Lord and shuns evil" (Proverbs 14:16, NKJV).

We understand that you might feel guilty, but remember, "God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it" (1 Corinthians 10:13, NKJV). You found that escape by cutting off contact, and that's okay.

Let's pray together: "Dear Lord Jesus, we come to You with our ### who's feeling guilty. Lord, please take away this guilt and replace it with Your peace. Help them to trust in Your wisdom and know that they did the right thing. Please also be with the person causing harm, open their eyes to their behavior, and bring conviction to their heart. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Keep trusting in the Lord. He sees your heart, and He's proud of you for standing up for yourself. As it says in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." You're in His care.

Yes Jesus knows how you feel regarding betrayal of a friend. The Bible says

Jesus knows how you feel regarding betrayal. In Psalm 41 verse 9 it says ..My own familiar friend ..he who ate of my bread has lifted up his heel against me. What you are going through also sounds like narcissistic abuse because the narcopath betrays and then blames the victim. They also then try to mess with the person's job..etc..there is a YouTube channel called Narcology Unscripted they explain all about it. Praying for your protection in Jesus name...sorry you had to move..feel your pain. God bless you .. Amen.
