Prayer For Those Being Bullied
God of Peace, though I walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve my life. You stretch out Your hand against the anger of my foes; with Your right hand, You save me! Thank You for keeping me even when bullies come to surround me. I know that You are for me, therefore I will not fear what bullies can do to me. Even in the midst of trouble, You keep me in Your arms, unharmed and undefeated, thank You, Father, Amen
Awesome God, though the righteous fall seven times, they will rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes. I know that even when I stumble, it is You who picks me up, even when the intimidation of the bully oppresses me, it is You who enables me to stand against them. With You, I have the victory because, with You, I will always get back up. Thank You for being faithful to me and for being just to my oppressor, Amen.
Precious Lord, whoever would foster lover love covers over an offense, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends. I pray that I cover the offenses of the bully with love because You encourage me to do so. Father, it is hard to show love to those who do not reciprocate it but Lord, You loved me even when I didn't love You, so I pray that I extend this same grace to those around me, Amen.
Oh Lord, I know that my struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the authorities and powers of this dark world. My struggle is against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. I pray that I do not just look at a bully and see a human but help me to understand that this is spiritual opposition. I pray that Your word is the governing authority in my life so that I may be equipped when dealing with spiritual opposition, Amen.
Righteous God, Your word states that blessed am I when people insult me, persecute me and falsely say all kinds of evil against me because of You. I know that in Your eyes I am blessed and highly favored regardless of what people say to me. I am more than the labels that bullies have assigned to me. Thank You for having my interests at heart, thank You for declaring a word over me that is greater than any word man could say over me, Amen.
Holy Spirit, please show me how I can pray for children who are being bullied:
Holy Spirit, please help those people who are being bullied. Send people to help them. Please help the people who are doing the bullying to get help so that they will not continue to hurt people. Lord, give me the courage to tell my parents about anyone I know who is being hurt or bullied.
Father, forgive people who bully others. Forgive us for not always speaking up and telling an adult when we see someone bullying a person. Father, please forgive me for (list any sin that comes to mind). Lord, remind all of us of those we need to forgive; and help us to be quick to forgive. (Take a moment and ask the Holy Spirit to show you names or faces of people that you may need to forgive. As He shows you, say aloud, I forgive name of person(s).)
Father, help us all to not yield to temptation; but deliver them from the evil one.
Eternal King, how great are Your signs and how powerful are Your wonders! Your Kingdom will last forever, Your rule through all generations. You are the Lord, the Holy One, Israel's Creator and King. In Jesus' name, amen.
Father, You are our Rock, Fortress and Savior. You are our Rock in whom we find protection. Lord, You always keep Your promises; You are gracious in all that You do. You help those who have fallen and You lift those who have too much to carry. People everywhere look to You in hope and You give them their food as they need it. When You open Your hand, You satisfy the hunger and thirst of every living thing. Thank You for being a refuge of safety for those people who are being hurt by others. Thank You for being our Savior, the one who saves us from violence. Thank You for never leaving or abandoning Your people.
Holy Father, Your Word says that we are to treat people in the way that we want to be treated. We confess that we will practice this command and be kind and fair. We will be good friends and tell an adult when someone is being mean to another person. We will not push, shove, or fight. We declare that You, Lord will be the light and salvation for those who are being bullied and mistreated so they will not have to be afraid. We declare that God, You will cause the bad people who go around bullying people to fail in their actions. We confess that Your angels will protect those people who are being bullied wherever they go. We declare that You, will rescue those who love You and will protect those who trust in Your Name.Amen
God of Love, Your word declares that anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness. I pray for those who are in the darkness right now, for those who choose to hate over love and choose intimidation over respect. I pray for bullies right now, please touch their hearts. Lord, please let Your light shine upon them and eradicate the darkness that surrounds them, Amen.
