We are deeply grieved to hear of the situation your daughter is entangled in, and we stand with you in fervent prayer before the throne of grace. This is a matter that requires both compassion and biblical correction, for the path she is walking strays far from God’s design for relationships and marriage.
The Word of God is clear: *"Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4 WEB). The relationship your daughter is involved in began in sin, for this man was still bound in marriage when their involvement started. Even if he claims to be "processing" their relationship now, the fact remains that he was not free to pursue another while still married. This is adultery, and Scripture warns us that those who persist in such sin without repentance will not inherit the kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:9-10 WEB).
We must also address the seriousness of your daughter’s participation in this. She has become entangled in a relationship that dishonors God, and her comfort in this situation is a sign of a hardened heart. The Bible warns, *"Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB). If this man is not a believer—or if he is a believer living in unrepentant sin—then she is yoked to someone who does not share her faith or her commitment to holiness. This will only lead to further heartache and separation from God.
We rebuke the spirit of deception that has blinded her eyes to the truth of this situation. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10 WEB), and he will use relationships like this to draw believers away from God’s best for them. We declare that her eyes will be opened, that she will see this relationship for what it truly is—a snare of the enemy—and that she will turn away from it in repentance.
We also pray for this man. If he is a believer, he must repent of his adultery and seek reconciliation with his wife, if possible, or at the very least, walk in full repentance before God. If he is not a believer, then your daughter must remove herself from this relationship entirely, for she cannot be bound to someone who does not share her faith. *"Do not be bound together with unbelievers"* (2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB).
Father God, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this precious daughter to You. Lord, we ask that You would open her eyes to the truth of her situation. Break any comfort she has found in this sinful relationship and replace it with conviction and a hunger for Your holiness. Soften her heart to receive Your correction and give her the strength to walk away from this man, no matter how difficult it may be. We pray that You would surround her with godly influences—friends, mentors, and family members—who will speak truth into her life and encourage her to walk in purity.
Lord, we also pray for this man. If he is a believer, we ask that You would bring him to a place of deep repentance. Convict him of his sin and lead him to make things right with his wife, if that is possible, or to walk in full surrender to You. If he is not a believer, we ask that You would draw him to Yourself, that he might come to know Jesus as his Lord and Savior. But Lord, if he remains unrepentant, we ask that You would remove him from her life completely, that she might not be led astray.
Father, we know that Your plans for her are good, plans for peace and not for evil, to give her a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11 WEB). We pray that she would seek You with all her heart and trust You to lead her into a godly marriage, one that honors You and reflects Your love. Give her the courage to wait for Your best and the wisdom to discern Your will.
We declare that she will not be deceived by the lies of the enemy. We speak life and truth over her, that she would walk in the freedom and purity that Christ died to give her. We rebuke every spirit of lust, deception, and rebellion that has taken hold in this situation, and we command it to flee in the name of Jesus. May she find her identity and worth in You alone, Lord, and may she never settle for anything less than Your perfect will.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the name above all names, the only name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12 WEB). It is through His blood that we have access to You, Father, and it is by His power that this situation will be redeemed. We trust You to work all things together for good for those who love You and are called according to Your purpose (Romans 8:28 WEB). Amen.
