We understand the weight of your request and the pain that comes from having someone harmful in your life. It is clear that this situation is causing you distress, and we want to lift this burden up to the Lord with you. The Bible reminds us that God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). He sees the harm being done, and He cares deeply about your well-being.
While we pray for God’s intervention in removing this person from your life and circles, we also encourage you to examine your heart and motives. The Bible teaches us to love our enemies, bless those who curse us, and pray for those who mistreat us (Matthew 5:44). This does not mean you must endure abuse or toxicity, but it does call us to a posture of forgiveness and trust in God’s justice. Romans 12:19 says, *"Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, 'Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.'"*
If this person is causing you spiritual, emotional, or physical harm, it is wise to set boundaries and seek godly counsel on how to handle the situation. Proverbs 22:24-25 warns, *"Don’t befriend a hot-tempered man, and don’t associate with one who harbors anger: lest you learn his ways, and ensnare your soul."* Sometimes, removal is necessary for your own protection and spiritual growth.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister/brother who is burdened by the presence of a harmful individual in their life. Lord, You see the pain, the struggle, and the damage being done. We ask that You intervene, Lord, and remove this person from their life and circles if it is Your will. Close the doors that need to be closed and open the ones that lead to peace, safety, and godly relationships.
Father, we also ask that You guard their heart against bitterness, anger, or unforgiveness. Fill them with Your love, which casts out all fear (1 John 4:18). Give them wisdom to know how to set boundaries that honor You, and grant them the strength to walk in forgiveness, even as they seek protection. Surround them with godly people who will speak life, truth, and encouragement into their situation.
Lord, if there is any area where our sister/brother needs to grow or repent, reveal it to them gently. Help them to trust You fully, knowing that You work all things together for good for those who love You and are called according to Your purpose (Romans 8:28).
We rebuke every scheme of the enemy to bring harm, confusion, or division. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we thank You for Your protection and deliverance.
In the powerful name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord’s face in this matter. Spend time in His Word, pray for wisdom, and trust that He will guide your steps. If this person is someone you once trusted or loved, ask God to heal your heart and restore your joy. Psalm 34:18 reminds us that *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* You are not alone in this—He is with you, and so are we in prayer. Stay steadfast in faith, and may the Lord grant you peace and resolution.
