Please pray for my family that a bug problem we've been having in our home now for a while would be solved. We finally had someone to come spray after trying natural remedies (we were concerned about bug sprays affecting our pets so we hesitated to use that method; we had no way of leaving our house for an extended period of time so that the whole house could be sprayed) but we were warned that because we had sprayed, the bugs would not only come out more but they would try to leave the area that they were in and go to other parts of the house (the bugs were mainly in one area of the house). Well, that is exactly what happened and now the bugs are trying to infiltrate my pets' room in addition to other places in the home which will now also have to be sprayed. We have to call the landlord to get the house sprayed again. Please pray for a final end to this. We have never had a problem like this before in this home and have no idea where these bugs came from except that they likely came from outside the home through vulnerabilities in the infrastructure. Also, we have a personal history of having lived in a home before that we loved but that had many issues which made living in it difficult and emotionally and even physically unhealthy. This situation has the potential to be very triggering for all of us. Thank you.

We hear your distress and understand the frustration and anxiety that comes with an infestation in your home, especially when it begins to affect your beloved pets and stirs up difficult memories. This is not just a physical battle but an emotional one as well, and we stand with you in seeking God’s intervention and peace.
First, we want to acknowledge your diligence in trying to handle this situation in a way that protects your pets and your family. It’s clear you’ve sought to be responsible stewards of your home, and that is commendable. However, we also recognize the spiritual truth that our homes are not just physical spaces but places where God’s presence should dwell. In Exodus 23:28-29, the Lord warns His people about the consequences of disobedience, including pestilences, but He also promises deliverance when we turn to Him. We take comfort in knowing that God is not only aware of your struggle but is also able to bring resolution.
We rebuke the spirit of fear and anxiety that seeks to take hold of your hearts in this situation. The enemy would love nothing more than to use this infestation to bring up past traumas and make you feel overwhelmed or helpless. But we declare that God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). We also rebuke the pestilence itself in the name of Jesus Christ, commanding it to leave your home and not return. The Bible tells us in Psalm 91:3, "For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence." We stand on this promise, believing that God is your deliverer.
We pray now, lifting your home and family to the Lord. Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the name above all names, the only name by which we can be saved and through which we have access to You. Lord, we ask that You would intervene in this situation and bring an end to this infestation. We declare that Your Word says in Psalm 121:7-8, "Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more." We claim this promise over this family and their home.
Father, we ask that You would guide the hands of those who come to spray the house, that the treatment would be effective and thorough. Give wisdom to the landlord and to the pest control professionals as they address the vulnerabilities in the home’s infrastructure. We pray that the bugs would not only be eradicated but that they would be prevented from returning. Lord, we also ask that You would protect the pets in this home, that they would not be harmed by the infestation or the treatments used to combat it.
We also lift up the emotional toll this situation is taking. Lord, we know that You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who have a contrite spirit (Psalm 34:18). Heal the memories of past struggles in unhealthy homes, and replace those fears with Your peace. Remind this family that You are their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Let them feel Your presence in a tangible way, knowing that You are with them in this battle.
We pray for unity and patience within this family as they navigate this challenge. Help them to encourage one another and to lean on You together. May this trial draw them closer to You and to each other. We also pray for provision, Lord. Pest control can be costly, and we ask that You would open doors for the financial resources needed to address this issue completely. You are Jehovah Jireh, our provider, and we trust in You.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would use this situation for Your glory. Whether through deliverance, perseverance, or testimony, let Your name be praised. We thank You in advance for the victory, knowing that You are faithful to Your promises. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue to stand on God’s Word and declare His promises over your home. Speak life and victory into this situation, even when it feels overwhelming. Remember that the battle is not yours, but the Lord’s (2 Chronicles 20:15). Keep your eyes fixed on Him, and do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season, you will reap if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9).
If this situation continues to weigh heavily on your hearts, we also encourage you to come together as a family to pray and seek the Lord’s guidance. There is power in united prayer, and God hears the cries of His children. You might also consider anointing your home with oil, as a symbol of setting it apart for God’s purposes and inviting His presence to dwell there (James 5:14). This is not a superstitious act but a declaration of faith in God’s power to cleanse and protect.
Lastly, we want to gently remind you of the importance of calling on the name of Jesus in all things. It is through Him alone that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your lives fully to Jesus Christ, acknowledging Him as your Lord and Savior. This is the foundation upon which all victory is built. If you have any questions about what it means to follow Christ, we would be honored to share more with you. Your eternal security and peace are of utmost importance to us.
