We come before the Lord with you in this request, lifting up your heart’s cry for deliverance from this harmful influence in your life. It is clear you are seeking God’s intervention, and we join you in asking for His protection, wisdom, and sovereign action to remove this person from your path. The Bible assures us that God hears the prayers of His people and acts on their behalf. As it is written in **Psalm 34:17-19 (WEB)**, *"The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all."*
We also recall the words of Jesus in **Matthew 18:18-20 (WEB)**, where He declares, *"Most certainly I tell you, whatever things you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever things you release on earth will have been released in heaven. Again, assuredly I tell you, that if two of you will agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them."* With this promise, we stand in agreement with you, binding the enemy’s influence in this situation and asking the Lord to sever this harmful connection by His mighty power.
However, we must also encourage you to examine your own heart and actions in this matter. Have you forgiven this person, even as you seek their removal? Unforgiveness can hinder our prayers and give the enemy a foothold. **Mark 11:25 (WEB)** reminds us, *"Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions."* We urge you to release any bitterness or resentment to the Lord, trusting Him to bring justice and healing in His perfect timing.
Additionally, we ask if there are any open doors in your life—such as ungodly relationships, compromises, or sin—that may have given this person access to you. **Ephesians 4:27 (WEB)** warns, *"Don’t give place to the devil,"* and **2 Corinthians 6:14 (WEB)** commands, *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* If this person is tied to you through sinful entanglements, repentance and turning away from those sins will be essential for true freedom. The Lord may be using this trial to call you to holiness and separation from worldly influences.
We also want to remind you that while we pray for this person’s removal, our ultimate desire should align with God’s will. Sometimes, He allows difficult people in our lives to refine us, teach us reliance on Him, or prepare us for greater purposes. **Romans 8:28 (WEB)** assures us, *"We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."* Trust that even in this, God is working for your good, whether through removal or through your growth in perseverance and faith.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Your child who seeks deliverance from a harmful presence in their life. Lord, You see the heart of this person who has caused pain, and You know the depths of the hurt and confusion they have sown. We ask, Father, that by Your sovereign power, You would remove this individual from ### life and circles. Cut every ungodly tie, break every scheme of the enemy, and close every door that has given this person access. Let Your divine separation bring peace, restoration, and protection.
Lord, we also ask that You would guard ### heart from bitterness. Fill them with Your love and forgiveness, even as they seek freedom from this person’s influence. If there is any sin or compromise in their life that has opened a door to this harm, we pray for conviction and repentance. Cleanse them, Lord, and set them on a path of righteousness.
Father, we trust in Your timing and Your will. If this trial is meant to refine them, give them the strength to endure and the wisdom to learn what You are teaching. But if it is Your will to remove this person entirely, we ask that You do so swiftly and completely. Surround ### with godly relationships, mentors, and friends who will encourage them in You.
We bind every spirit of manipulation, deception, and harm in the name of Jesus. No weapon formed against Your child shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We declare Your protection, Your peace, and Your victory over this situation.
Thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers. We trust in You and give You all the glory. In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Finally, we encourage you to remain steadfast in prayer, worship, and the Word of God. **1 Peter 5:8-9 (WEB)** reminds us, *"Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings."* Stay close to the Lord, and He will be your shield and strength. If this person has been a source of temptation or sin, we urge you to flee from it and seek accountability within the body of Christ. You are not alone in this—God is with you, and we are standing with you in prayer.
