Have you been a victim of abuse in some way?
Abuse often leaves us feeling trapped, confused, broken, vulnerable, depressed, or anxious. It can even lead us into our own sin (which we are still responsible for), or tempt us to make excuses that seem to make sense from a worldly perspective.
But there is hope.
We can cry out to God in our pain. He sees. He knows. And He is the One who judges our case.
If you have been victimized, I’d encourage you to pray Lamentations 3:55–59:
“I called on Your name, O LORD, from the lowest pit… You heard my plea… You came near when I called on You; You said, ‘Do not fear.’ O Lord, You have pleaded my soul’s cause; You have redeemed my life. You have seen my oppression; judge my case.”
You can pray this passage back to the Lord. Make it your prayer. He has seen your oppression. Let Him uphold your cause.
And if you’re struggling to believe that He will, pray the words from Scripture: “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief.” (Mark 9:24)
Wait on God, beloved. He is faithful.
