to pray for God to go and deal with them.Or is this just unforgiveness when you want God to convict and make them do what is right.You pray for justice,and for God to just deal with them harshly.Is this wrong please give scripture if I am wrong.Is it wrong to want justice,when you have been violated.I know in the old testament people of God prayed for God to slam others.

The Bible tells us "Pray for those who spitefully use you."

Forgive and Pray - Is the only way!!

If there was ever a Yahoo Answers Verse, This is it ya'll

Matthew 5:43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor[g] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,[h] 45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet your brethren[i] only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors[j] do so? 48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

I believe what goes around comes around. If in this lifetime you go around treating people like chopped liver it is wrong and it will not go
unattended by God. I Serve a Big God, that sits high and looks low, he see's everything we do and Hear everything we say , once you try to use one of his children, you will have to deal with him. Therefore, I put everything in his care if I don't and I try to deal with it the outcome will be bad.

I pray God's will be done, because God knows all the options. We all fall short from the glory of God. Jesus cleanses us from our sins though. That is a good feeling. : )

i've had it happen to me too.

we can bring our complaints to the Lord (ps142:2), express our anger there.. but we must not turn that anger on those who did wrong against us. (ephes.4:26)

Jesus spoke on the cross while He was being reviled and mocked.. "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do."

and he said, "if you have any ought against any.. forgive."

no option there.

at the same time that Jesus paid for your tresspasses, He paid for everyone elses didnt He?

we who are christians are different than everyone else in that we are to love our neighbors as ourselves.. to forgive them as we have been forgiven.

if you think that there's is someone to blame, then put it all on Jesus' tab, and count it as already paid.

if you feel that you cant.. then stand in their place and intercede for them. remember how you once were lost in sin and God brought salvation to you.
and ask that God do so to them.

I remind myself that I am guilty as well, and as I receive forgiveness from God, I give it to others.

while I'm not Christian, I can show you examples in Scripture where King David asked G-d to break his enemys' teeth in their mouth!
Sometimes pouring out your heart of anguish & frustration to G-d is considered praise!

the key word in your question is the word 'Christian"...take out the new testament and read what Christ had to say about that...
