My daugther, Karen, and her 3 boys have been victims of domestic violence for many years at the hands of her pastor husband. He has 2 Masters degrees and a Doctorate and been preaching God's word for over 12 years, while physically and mentally abusing his family. He was arrested for assault and violating protective order; his court dates are coming up soon. Please pray that justice will be served. Give Karen protection and wisdom.

Father God, please in your mercy and wisdom intervene in this situation. Touch and heal this wife and these children who have suffered so at the hands of a man that is preaching the Gospel. Father, how confused they must be and how in need of your loving kindness to have heard the words of God coming forth from the mouth of their abuser. Father, please go into the courtroom while this case is being heard and expel the demonic forces that have corrupted this man. Father touch and heal his mind and his heart that he might be useful to your kingdom. Please in your mercy let the court order that he get help. Father...despite his degrees and his calling his behavior has been outrageous. Please let justice be served, but if it be in your will temper it with mercy...that he might be healed. Father protect this wife and these children...and in your amazing grace bring wisdom to this mother that she also have her own protection and that of her sons in mind. Father let them forgive this man for his horrible conduct...but let them also not put themselves in the position for the abuse to continue. I ask this in full belief that your perfect will will be done. In Jesus name...Amen!
