Heavenly Father, I come before You today, seeking Your protection and strength. You are her refuge and fortress, our God, in whom we trust. I ask that You surround her with Your loving presence and cast out all fear from her heart. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, even in the midst of this storm. Lord, I pray for courage to stand firm and to seek the help she need. Give her the wisdom to make the right decisions and the strength to follow through, even when she feel afraid. Help her to see her self as You see her, worthy of love, respect, and safety. Protect her from harm and guide her to safe spaces and supportive people who can help her. Break the chains of abuse and violence, and let Your light shine in the darkness. I ask that You deliver her from this situation and heal her heart, mind, and body from the wounds inflicted upon her. May Your angels watch over her and may Your Holy Spirit comfort her. I declare that fear has no place in her life, for You ...
