Heavenly Father, I am on my knees for this lost soul Father, I am asking you, Father to soften her heart, I cry out to You Lord, send your Holy Spirit to her heart. I also ask you Jesus to rebuke the devil that has control of her, in Your beautiful and Glorious name, Amen. So be it.
[22]strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying, "We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God."
I know EXACTLY how you feel. My life was similar to yours. I have been abused, used, rejected, by family and men that supposedly " loved" me. I was a teen mom with no support from my family. I also tried committing suicide, only to have my ex mother in law walk in on me. I lived a hopeless life for 40 years!!!! And then Jesus stepped into my life. Let me tell you about my life now after receiving Jesus in 2006! He revived a dream in me that I thought would never happen, and that was to go to college. In 2007 he showed me in a dream that I would go to school. That happened in 2014!! Yes, seven years after he gave me my dream! In those seven years, my husband was diagnosed with MS and lost his job, my teenage daughter was rebelling and moved in with my parents, my mother in law was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis of the lungs and I became a caregiver to her and my husband, while still working! I lost my job in 2013 a week before Thanksgiving!! Yes... all this could have made me give up the dream of going to school, but instead it fueled my need for Jesus EVERYDAY!!! I attended school at the age of 40 years old for 6 years and I have three degrees! I finished my Master's this past May and I did it debt free because it is true! Where he guides, he provides! I tell you this because I understand the hard days, the abusive days, the hopeless days, but if you hold fast to Jesus and his words and promises... HE WILL GIVE YOU THE LIFE HE CREATED YOU FOR!!! HE LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU KNOW!!! If I would have successfully committed suicide when I was 19, I would have never known how great my life is turning out to be!!!! Please DO NOT GIVE UP!!!! YOU ARE HERE FOR A REASON AND HAVE A PURPOSE IN THIS LIFE TO ACTUALLY LIVE AND NOT JUST SURVIVE!!!!! I hope my post encourages you that if God can do this for me, than know that HE CAN FO IT FOR YOU!!!!!
You know that Christian saying, " Jesus takes your mess and makes it your message"? Well... here's mine
Just seems we can't get over it.
And losing financially because of it.
Even though you feel trapped and don't see anyway out, please don't give up. There's more to it. Situations change, perspectives change.
How do I know this? Because at one point I wanted to end things too and planned to do so. Even though emotions and pain seem at 100/100 level I'm so glad I waited, because things DID change. Very quickly too. Just give it another day, another week. If I hadn't waited it would have been such a waste, because shortly after new positive things happened in my life. But I didn't know that at the time, I too, thought I was stuck, trapped, with no way out, blamed others, blamed God. But part of the problem was my own thinking. I let satan deceive me. I believed a lie that I was trapped, but I was only trapped by my own thinking and false assumptions. Seeking help through pastors, mentors, counselors helped expose my false assumptions and helped me set more healthy expectations. I sought to read the scripture with a fresh set of eyes and understanding. I found out that God does love me, forgives me, and is there for me. God loves you, forgives you, and is there for you too, even though you don't currently believe it.

Please don't rush to anything, because myself and so many others have been in a similar place of extreme hurt in life, but waited, and positive things DID happen just right around the corner. Some of our testimonies are available on this site for you to read: Link
Can you please respond when you get this? Awaiting your reply...
Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that OLD SERPENT old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Is the serpent a mere figure of speech?
Was Eve speaking with a beautiful angel as mentioned in Ezekiel?
Ezekiel Chapter 28:15 Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. (Created, not born)
16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with VIOLENCE violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
(war in heaven Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,)
17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy BEAUTY beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy BRIGHTNESS brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of LIGHT light.
I do not lean towards the talking snake thing personally.
