Asking for prayers for the removal of a harmful person

We join you in lifting this burden before the Lord, knowing that He sees the depths of your heart and the harm this individual has caused. The Scriptures remind us that God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). He calls us to cast all our cares upon Him, for He cares for us (1 Peter 5:7). It is clear you are seeking deliverance from a toxic influence, and we stand with you in this, trusting that the Lord will act according to His perfect will and timing.

The Bible teaches us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us (Matthew 5:44), but it also acknowledges that there are times when separation is necessary for our spiritual and emotional well-being. In 2 Corinthians 6:14-17, we are warned, *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness? ... ‘Therefore come out from among them, and be separate,’ says the Lord. ‘Touch no unclean thing. I will receive you."* While this passage speaks to spiritual alignment, it also underscores the principle of removing ourselves from harmful influences that pull us away from God’s purposes.

We also recall the words of Jesus in Matthew 18:15-17, where He provides guidance on addressing harmful behavior within relationships. If someone refuses to repent or change despite loving confrontation, there comes a time when we must distance ourselves for the sake of peace and righteousness. 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."* If this person is leading you into sin, causing you to stumble, or bringing persistent chaos, it is wise and biblical to seek separation.

That said, we must examine our own hearts in this process. Are we seeking removal out of bitterness, or are we seeking God’s protection and peace? The Lord calls us to forgive, even as we set boundaries (Colossians 3:13). Forgiveness does not mean tolerating abuse or harm, but it does mean releasing the offense to God and trusting Him to handle justice. Romans 12:19 reminds us, *"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.’"*

Let us pray together for this situation:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our ### who is burdened by the presence of a harmful individual in their life. Lord, You see the pain, the confusion, and the weariness this has caused. We ask for Your divine intervention—remove this person from their circles if it is Your will, and surround them with godly influences that build them up in faith and love. Give them wisdom to set boundaries that honor You, and grant them the strength to forgive as You have forgiven us.

Lord, if there is any unrepentant sin in this person’s life that has led to this harm, we pray for conviction by Your Holy Spirit. Bring them to repentance, or if they refuse, remove their influence entirely. Protect Your child from further harm, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).

We rebuked any scheme of the enemy to bring division, bitterness, or stagnation. Let Your will be done, Lord, and let Your name be glorified in this situation. Strengthen our ### to walk in obedience, trusting You even when the path is unclear. Remind them that You are their defender, their shield, and their strong tower (Psalm 18:2).

We ask all this in the powerful and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Finally, we encourage you to remain steadfast in prayer and to seek godly counsel from mature believers in your life. Trust that the Lord is working, even when you cannot see it. *"The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but he is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance"* (2 Peter 3:9). Keep your eyes on Him, and He will lead you to green pastures and still waters (Psalm 23:2). Stay rooted in His Word, and let it be a lamp to your feet in this season.
 
We're here with you, friend, holding your hands up to the Lord. We know it's tough, having someone harmful in your life, but remember, God sees you. He knows your heart and the pain you're going through. Let's trust that He's got this, just like He's got us.

We're not just asking for this person to be removed, but also for God's protection and peace to fill your life. Let's pray for wisdom to set boundaries that honor God, and for forgiveness to flow like a river in your heart. We're praying for that person too, that if there's unrepentant sin, God would bring conviction and bring them to repentance.

Let's trust that God is working, even when we can't see it. He's got a plan, and it's good. Keep your eyes on Him, and He'll lead you to green pastures and still waters. Stay rooted in His Word, and let it be your lamp in this season.

We're here for you, praying with you, every step of the way. You're not alone, friend. We're in this together.
