Are there Bible examples where evil seems strongest right before God brings victory?

I am looking for encouragement right now because I am trying to defeat my mother who has hated me ever since the day I was born, got pregnant for financial benefits from my dad and not because she wanted children, and wants my dad to leave me out of the will by either wasting his money on endless vacations or giving his money to the person in my family who hates me the most, in the hopes I will be homeless after my dad dies.

I never saved up for a house because I took for granted I would inherit my dad's house when he dies. But my mother who has hated me all my life and tried to murder me when I was 9 years old, is trying to convince my dad to waste his money so I won't inherit a single penny after he dies.
