I'm new to this forum and for general reference I'm a PK, military brat, and single mother. Having said that, I discovered the other day that I was mad with God as well as with people in general. It occurred to me however, that one of the main reasons this anger has started to surface was because I realized that most of what I thought I believed or knew seemed to be a lie.

First, if a person who also claims to believe or serve God is creating constant grief and wreaking havoc in the life of another person who claims to believe in and serve God, how do you pray against the situation if that person continues to be blessed and protected because we are all under the same covenant? I know that sounds confusing, and it's not like I want to curse anyone, but some of the issues I've faced for many years now all start and end with the same few people. All of whom are "church goers" or law-abiding Christians so to speak. Praying a hedge of protection around myself hasn't seemed to work and although there have been minor occasional victories, most of these problems are cyclical, ongoing and apparently being used against me on such a regular basis it affects everything else.

After addressing my anger in prayer, I thought it would be prudent to seek counsel from unbiased children of God considering all those in my immediate circle would side with those that hold higher titles or who have more money. In a nutshell, my ex and I have fought an ongoing battle over child support (in which I agreed to pay him) although we still have shared custody and the child in question lives between the two houses. Since that time however, I've had one major set back after the other financially while he in turn has been able to use the system and 'women' to set himself up well enough to hire gangs of attorneys to come after me whether I pay or not. In the mean time, I've had ongoing battles with him regarding everything from false kidnapping charges, to erroneous reports affecting my credit, income, driver's license even insurance for my other child. Although I've managed to curtail the possibility of going to jail on numerous occasion, he continues to use every resource to harass and drag me to court so often that getting back on my feet has become mission impossible.

It's not that I want bad things to happen to him, I want him to leave me alone and stop using the courts as a means to manipulate and cause undo problems. But at this point, I don't know how to pray. If we know them by their fruits, then would that mean I've done something wrong? The way it would appear if I were looking through the "Christian" sunglasses: he is constantly blessed while I constantly struggle, while as far as I know, we both serve the same God. I had stopped going to church a few years ago because of all of this, and stopped praying etc. after the last major go round caused a confrontation involving the child we do not share in common.

Lastly, with my parents being in ministry and having their own personal desire for me to do certain things, does that put me in disobedience to God thereby removing the protection I should be afforded? I don't recall having God send me a message that supports my parent's "ideals" for my life. Nothing that I am doing is contrary to God's word, and yet there's little success because of all the constant doubt and unbelief that continues to surface every time these problems reappear. I don't talk to them often because I can't trust their prayers are in support of my desire vs their own. I know what God has told me to do, but so far the provision for the vision has not come to fruition. With the enemy taking every dime before I can even cover the household bills, it's become one very long disappointing road. I suppose there were many questions rolled into my semi-rant, longish paragraphs. Ultimately, I need to know how to send the enemy to flight when he is using the people that are protected by God. If I'm not supposed to do anything, why have the vision God gave me and how do I get around God's law of coverings if the covering doesn't support the vision?

So if you are perhaps slightly less confused than I am at the moment and can give insight, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm very close to giving up on the whole thing to be honest because this battle seems to have a lot of headache and heartache with little reward.

Thanks again from Ms Leeta
