Strength to keep on going

I don't often ask for prayer for myself. Today I feel that I seriously need you all to pray for me. I have a situation in my own household that has gotten to be intolerable. My 18 year old daughter has an evil tongue and she is forever lashing out at me with it. I'm not a confrontational person so I just stand there and get more wounded every day. She's told me she wishes I was dead and there are times that I wish it too, just to be free of her hateful and evil comments to me. Her father (my ex) talked to me like this for years and she grew up hearing it. There are so many scars on my heart . I know that Jesus can do anything. I don't even know how to pray about this....it's too much in my face. I'm going under and feel helpless to stop it. I don't feel like anyone cares about my situation. They aren't in the middle of it. Please pray for me quickly. Thank all of you who care enough to respond to this heart felt request.

Dear Christianna,
I pray that your daughter learns forbearance from the example you give her. That she learns to love you as you love her. I pray that you never give up, never give in and hold on till the end. I pray that God gives your daughter the understanding, wisdom, knowledge, faith and discernment in all that she undertakes and most of all, I pray for God's love to touch you and your children. That you and your family live in God's peace and love, Amen.

Dear Lord ,Please give this woman a backbone.There is no reason a daughter should speak to her mother this way.Remove this daughter from the house if she is so miserable and abusive.Regaurdless if the formewr husband was abusive with his tongue gives a child no right to do the same. Now she is a young lady and knows better.Give Christianna peace,comfort and strength to do what is necessary to take care of herself and please do a mighty work in her daughters heart. The Bible says honor your Father and Mother and it doesnt say when to stop. In Jesus Name Amen

Another mother's cry has gone out and I know God has heard. You feel bombarded on every side, and the walls are closing in on you. Please read Psalm 57--this is David crying out when Saul was chasing him to kill him and David had to hide in a cave. Verse 4 says...."My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword." David cried out to God too and God heard him. God has heard you and today I pray with you to the God of David, Issac and Gideon, that your countenance be lifted up, your heart be strengthened, and that your fingers be taught to war. Fight back in prayer, praise and worship. Sing songs, play music, speak the Word of God in your house. Anoint your home, your daughter's bed, her shoes and her clothes. She does not need to see you do this. When she is not around go into her room and pray like you have never prayed before. Worship in that room, make it an altar and mighty angels will come and help you fight in this violent attack. I say these things because there was a time I had to do them.
I declare that you shall not die but live and declare the works of God. We are in spiritual warfare and the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but they are mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. Today we pull down the stronghold of the enemy. You have to become a prayer warrior to take authority over the situation, and God will guide you.
May these words strengthen and encourage you as you put your armor on--my dear we are in a battle and it is fierce and long. But the Lord is on our side, so we shall not fear.
I praise God for you today for your victory is nigh.
Hallelujah, in Jesus name, Amen!!!!!!!!!!!!

christiannanax5 - 9 months ago: Dear anointedteacher1, Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. It's strange that sometimes we can pray for others, but forget to apply the same Godly principles to our own situations. Thank you for praying for me and for your uplifting and encouraging words. I will read Psalm 57 right now and anoint her room and things that are hers and let God fight the battle. I forget sometimes that the battle belongs to the Lord! Thank you again. Love in Christ, Yvonne
