We join you in lifting up this burden to the Lord, standing firmly on His Word and the power of the name of Jesus Christ, through whom all things are possible. Your prayer is rooted in scripture, and we commend you for seeking the Lord’s will with such boldness and faith. It is clear that you are seeking deliverance from a past relationship that has caused spiritual, emotional, and possibly even physical hindrances in your life. We will address this with the truth of God’s Word, praying for your complete freedom, healing, and restoration in Jesus’ name.
First, we affirm that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have authority over the enemy and access to the Father. You have invoked His name in your prayer, and we stand with you in this truth. As it is written, *"There is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). The enemy has no power over those who are in Christ Jesus, for *"he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4, WEB). You have rightly stood on Zechariah 3:2, where the Lord rebukes Satan, saying, *"The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?"* This is your declaration: you are plucked from the fire of the enemy’s schemes, and the Lord Himself is your defender.
Your request for the Lord to remove the recollection of this past relationship if it was not His will is a deep cry for healing, and we pray with you for this. The Lord is faithful to heal broken hearts and bind up wounds. *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds"* (Psalm 147:3, WEB). If this relationship was outside of God’s will—whether because it was not leading toward a godly marriage, involved emotional or physical intimacy outside of marriage, or was rooted in unbelief or rebellion—then we pray the Lord would sever every ungodly tie. We also pray that if there was any sexual immorality involved, you would repent and receive the Lord’s cleansing, for *"the body is... for the Lord, and the Lord for the body"* (1 Corinthians 6:13, WEB). Sexual intimacy is a covenant reserved for marriage between a man and a woman, and anything outside of that is sin. If this applies, we urge you to confess it to the Lord, turn away from it, and receive His forgiveness and purification. *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9, WEB).
You have also asked for the Lord to intervene against this man’s attempts to hinder your future, and we stand with you in this. It is not godly for anyone to operate out of spite, jealousy, or malice, especially if it is aimed at sabotaging the work of the Lord in your life. The scripture you stood on, Exodus 23:27, declares, *"I will send my terror before you, and will confuse all the people to whom you come, and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you."* We pray that the Lord would indeed cause this man to turn away from any effort to harm you, and that the Lord would expose his true intentions, as you have stood on Luke 8:17: *"For nothing is hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light."* If he is involved in any unrighteousness, we pray the Lord would bring it to light and deal with him accordingly, that his schemes would be thwarted and his heart convicted.
We also pray for your complete restoration, as you have stood on Isaiah 61:7: *"Instead of your shame you shall have double; and instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double. Everlasting joy shall be to them."* The Lord is not only able but willing to restore what has been stolen from you—your peace, your joy, your confidence, and your future. He will turn your mourning into dancing and your sorrow into gladness. We declare Isaiah 54:17 over you: *"No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me,” says Yahweh."*
Now, we must also address the matter of your future relationships. You have asked the Lord to replace this bad experience with the "right person." We encourage you to seek the Lord first and foremost, that your desire would be for a *godly spouse*—a man who loves the Lord with all his heart, soul, and mind, and who will lead you in righteousness. Do not settle for anything less than what God has ordained: a marriage built on Christ, the Rock. Courtship should be entered into with the intent of marriage, and both parties should be believers, equally yoked in faith. *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). We pray that the Lord would prepare you for this, healing you completely from the past and aligning your heart with His will. *"Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart"* (Psalm 37:4, WEB).
Finally, we want to remind you that the Lord is your shield and your exceeding great reward. You do not need to fear the enemy’s tactics, for *"God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7, WEB). Walk in the authority you have in Christ, and do not look back at what the enemy has tried to use against you. Your focus should be on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. *"Let’s also lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith"* (Hebrews 12:1-2, WEB).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister who seeks Your deliverance, healing, and restoration. Lord, we thank You that You are a God who sees, who knows, and who acts on behalf of Your children. We stand with her against every scheme of the enemy that has tried to hinder her through this past relationship. Lord, if this man was never Your will for her life, we ask that You would sever every ungodly soul tie, every emotional bond, and every spiritual connection that has given the enemy a foothold. We pray that You would remove the pain of these memories and replace them with Your peace, Your joy, and Your hope for her future.
Father, we rebuke every spirit of fear, manipulation, and hindrance that has tried to operate through this man or anyone else. We declare that no weapon formed against her shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against her in judgment shall be condemned. Lord, expose every hidden thing, and bring to light the deeds of darkness. If this man has acted out of malice or spite, we pray that You would convict his heart and cause him to turn away from his wicked ways. Let him fear to come against Your anointed, and let Your terror fall upon him if he seeks to harm her further.
Lord, we ask for Your divine protection over her life—spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Surround her with Your angels, and let Your favor be a shield around her. Restore to her double for her trouble, and let her testimony be one of Your faithfulness and redemption. Heal her heart completely, Lord, and prepare her for the godly husband You have for her. Let her wait on You, trusting in Your timing and Your goodness.
Father, we also pray that if there was any sin involved in this relationship—whether fornication, emotional idolatry, or rebellion—You would grant her a spirit of repentance. Cleanse her, Lord, and make her whole. Let her walk in the freedom and purity that comes from Your forgiveness.
We thank You, Lord, that You are making all things new. We declare that her future is bright in You, and that You are leading her into a season of joy, peace, and divine purpose. Let her heart be guarded by Your truth, and let her eyes be fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of her faith.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
