Why my family hurts me so badly and makes me feel like a prisoner in my life.

[Anonymous]

Good morning fellow brothers and sisters, I asked for all the prayers you say over me, my parents are gone to heaven, but they left me with a lot of unanswered questions, unfortunately I will never get the chance to hear why they did this to me. I forgive them everyday, I look at all of the families I supposedly have as guards to my cell of life, like if though I’m a prisoner. I pray and ask God to please free me from this pain they caused for my life. One they rejecting from being their family, two they spread lies that my father is not my dad, as a grown woman, I had to do a DNA, with my brother, it’s proven that he is my father, there’s nothing that these people will believe, even if God come to tell them the truth, that they already know. Three these people are so mean spirited and have a nasty soul, they told the world that I have a disease that I don’t have, I feel like a prisoner doing time for all their lies they told about to the world, my life has not been the same, how I could not have known that these people were like this. All of them are what I considered as guards in my prison, but I believe that God and Jesus will free me soon, I have lost my dignity, my beauty, but still remain kind to my own children. Pray for me please, living in this life is hard, no one should be going through this. Then on top of having an ungrateful and verbally abusive husband, hearing your own children repeatedly saying things that literally destroy my life, I’m being tortured, I’m a nice soul, I’m not perfect, but I have always done what’s right and please to God. I don’t know why God put me among these people, I should have with a wonderful family, who knows how to love, cherish, respect and care each other. Please pray for me everyone. I’m hurting, there’s no one that talks to me, it’s sad and sickening,

We understand the deep pain you are feeling, and we are here to lift you up in prayer and offer biblical encouragement. Let's come together and seek God's will for your life.

Firstly, we want to remind you of the power of forgiveness. Jesus taught us to forgive, just as we have been forgiven (Matthew 6:14-15 WEB). You mentioned that you forgive your parents daily, and that is commendable. Continue to do so, not just for their sake, but for your own healing and peace of mind.

Regarding the hurt caused by your family, Jesus warned us that sometimes, our enemies will be those of our own household (Matthew 10:36 WEB). It's painful when family members act as your "prison guards," but remember that God can turn around even the most difficult situations for your good (Romans 8:28 WEB).

You also mentioned the struggle with your husband and children. We encourage you to pray fervently for them, as God can soften even the hardest hearts. Also, consider the words of Peter: "Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands; so that, even if any don't obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word; seeing your pure behavior in fear" (1 Peter 3:1-2 WEB). Your kind and respectful behavior can greatly impact your family.

We notice that you mentioned God and Jesus in your request, which is wonderful. It's important to remember that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB).

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We lift up our sister to you, asking for your divine intervention in her life. Lord, she feels imprisoned by her family's actions and words, but we know that you have the power to break every chain and set her free. Please bring healing to her heart, and help her to continue in forgiveness.

Lord, we also pray for her husband and children. Soften their hearts, Lord, and help them to see the pain they are causing. We pray for a spiritual awakening in their lives, that they may come to know you personally.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Lastly, we want to encourage you with these words from Psalm 34:18 (WEB): "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." God is near to you, dear sister. Keep trusting in Him.

We're here with you, dear friend. We can't imagine the weight you're carrying, but we want you to know that you're not alone. We're lifting you up in prayer, just as we would a dear sister.

We've been thinking about your situation and we want to encourage you with something different today. Have you ever considered that God might be using this trial to shape you into the image of His Son, Jesus? In Romans 5:3-4, it says, "More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope." Maybe this is God's way of helping you grow in endurance, character, and hope.

We also want to remind you of the power of prayer. We know you've been praying, and we want to encourage you to keep doing so. But have you considered praying for your family members? Not just for their behavior to change, but for their hearts to be softened and for them to come to know Jesus personally? We believe that God can work in their hearts, just as He's working in yours.

Let's pray together: "Dear Lord, we come to you today on behalf of our ###. We ask that you would comfort her in her pain and give her strength to endure. We also pray for her family members, that you would soften their hearts and draw them to you. We trust in your goodness and your power to work in all situations, even the difficult ones. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Remember, dear ###, God is with you. He sees your pain, and He's working in your life. Keep trusting in Him, and let's continue to pray for you and your family together.

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.
