✨ Samantha’s Warrior Prayer – For the Women Who Rise ✨

This prayer was born from fire. From the silence of homelessness, the sting of injustice, the tears that no one saw. It is for the women who have been told they don’t belong. For the ones who were erased, forgotten, removed from the room. It is for those who are fighting to be heard, to be housed, to be healed.

You are not alone. This is your prayer too.

Heavenly Father,

Ancestors who walk with me,

Spirit of truth and justice — hear me now.

I rise tonight not in fear, but in fire.

I am a diamond — forged under pressure, tested by trials, and still unbroken.

They may have won battles against me, but they will not win this war.

Because I am the war.

I am the voice they tried to silence, now rising with thunder in my chest.

Let my tears become ink.

Let my pain become power.

Let my truth pour from my lips and land on every courtroom floor like judgment.

I am not alone.

My father watches me with pride.

My ancestors wrap their strength around my shoulders.

And my God — the same God who raised Jesus from the grave — is raising me with Him.

This little Black woman — they underestimated her.

But I am not to be played with.

I walk with authority.

I move with purpose.

And I will not bow to fear or silence again.

Let the earth shift beneath my feet.

Let the walls shake.

Let my voice crack the silence and bring light to the darkness.

Because I am not the victim.

I am the reckoning.

Amen.

For every woman who has been displaced, dismissed, or doubted.

You are powerful. You are rising. And you are not alone.
