Hello,

I am requesting prayer that my family would not abuse me anymore. They scapegoat me and lie on me to cover up their bad behavior. They also have turned family members against me. Thank you for the prayers.

Penny, I know that sometimes when we are on a different path than our family members, they can sometimes misunderstand and disagree with us. I’m sorry you are going through what you are going through. My prayer is that God would give you the wisdom and the grace to be victorious over this. I believe this kind of abuse isn’t uncommon, and it can be very painful and isolating. Find strength and hope where you can, and pray for them, maybe it will stop. God bless you!

Penny, many times, when myself had been in situations, as yours, not exactly the same, yet in troubles over things, in my belief to God to lead, not me, others that have got in the way and caused troubles, not blaming them. Seeing it as was what it was now and that could happen again, not wanting troubles regardless, yet troubles never leave as I see them still going on in and around me all the time.
I have to this day not been able to ever escape trouble(s) I am 67 years old now. God has never ever forsaken me, even whenever it seemed as is by troubles I was in or am in, that are not good for me in my honest opinion.

As these you have mentioned here are not good for you. Yet can they be good for you? Can you rejoice over this abuse? If they see you not being bothered by there troubles presented on you from them, will they continue in them?

I am trusting God to speak to you inside you for you to see to be content in this happening for now, as God provides a way out for you. A cracked door a window, and opening somewhere, for you to go through in contentment in spite of these troubles happening to you for now. And praying for them to come to belief to God that God loves them in God's mercy and truth too.

God by you standing in trust to God, no matter what, will speak truth through you, not of get out anger, fight attitude

Of love, mercy and truth through you


Luke 21:14-15

New International Version

14 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. 15 For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict.

Love of 1 Cor 13:4-7 to you sister

Thank you very much 😊. I spoke out against the violence in our family and they retaliated against me scapegoated me. It's painful, but I pray for them.

Their, retaliation of the flesh nature they are in is flesh anger, knowing it is not good enough to ever please God, whether or not they realize it or not, matters not. Just stand in belief god has got your back, sides and has covered you in /God's love and mercy for everyone as I see you already do that. Prayer, trust is out and about and things will be seen as truth will win as won by Son in the resurrection of him as in Col 2 reveals this to me too
By the grace of God there go I, you and all that believe God loves them too
