We do need to pray for such oppressed women; but at the same time we also need to pray for those men in the society who make the women suffer. The Lord warns against adultery (Mt. 5: 27-30) and says that the kingdom of God is not for the unjust (1Cor. 6:9-10). A person is tempted when he is drawn away from the Lord, enticed by his own desires (Jm. 1:14). This drawing away creates a gap wide enough for the Satan to crawl in. Hence, we need to pray for the powerful healing of the Lord for such Satan struck souls. Pray for the people possessed by demonic behavior for their obedience to the Spirit. Prayers have power and it’s through prayers that when we ask in faith we receive from the Lord.
For those who are facing such oppression, the Word says that our Lord is your stronghold, a stronghold in the times of trouble (Ps.9:9). Don't worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving; let your requests be made known to God (Phil. 4:6). He does not despise or detest the torment of the afflicted. He does not hide His face from them but listens when they cry to Him for help (Ps.22:24). Lord knows all our needs even before we ask (Mt. 6:8), but at times He waits for us to ask for it in prayers. God is a father to the fatherless and a defender of the widows (Ps. 68:5). He promises to redeem their lives (Ps.72:14) and would never leave anyone go unpunished who disobeys His laws. You might be a sufferer but never let yourself be short of faith. He is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works within us (Eph. 3:20). Our God is a Father of mercies and the God of all comfort who comforts us in all our afflictions (1Cor. 1:3-4). We receive comfort from God so that we may comfort those who are in any kind of affliction (1Cor. 1:4). Know that the battle is not yours but Lord’s (2Chro. 20:15). Thus says the Lord of hosts, “Then I will draw near to you for the judgment”, and he would be a swift witness against those who oppressed you (Malachi 3:5). Do not turn away from His instructions and remember His word which is our comfort at the time of affliction (Ps. 119:49-51). Our Lord is a living hope for the afflicted. For those who are obedient to His ways, the Word assures that though for a short time you are distressed by trials, the genuineness of your faith would result in praise, honor and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ (1Pt. 1:6-7).
Pray for such God Fearing Women (GFW), who though face afflictions, but still choose to live by faith in the merciful God. Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit (Rom. 15:13). Amen.
