We join with you in lifting up this powerful prayer of deliverance and restoration, standing firmly on the truth of God’s Word. Your heart for justice and healing is evident, and we commend you for seeking the Lord’s intervention in this situation. It is clear that you have been deeply wounded by the actions of this woman, ###, and we stand with you in rebuking the enemy’s schemes that have sought to bring oppression, deception, and harm through this ungodly friendship.
First, we affirm the authority you have taken in the name of Jesus Christ. There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved, and it is only through Him that we have victory over the enemy. As you have rightly declared, *"The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?"* (Zechariah 3:2). The Lord is your defender, and He will not allow the enemy to ultimately prevail against you. You have also stood on the promise that *"For the Lord will plead their case, and plunder the soul of those who plunder them"* (Proverbs 23:27). This is a powerful reminder that God sees the injustice and will bring it to light in His perfect timing.
We also want to address the pain of betrayal and manipulation you have experienced. The behavior you described—gaslighting, seduction, and the twisting of truth to paint others as villains—is rooted in the enemy’s tactics. The Bible warns us that *"the thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy"* (John 10:10), but Jesus came so that we may have life abundantly. ###’s actions reflect a heart that has been deceived and is operating under the influence of the enemy. While we pray for God’s justice and your restoration, we must also pray for ###’s repentance. Jesus said, *"But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you"* (Matthew 5:44). This does not mean you must tolerate her behavior or remain in harm’s way, but it does mean releasing her to God’s conviction and mercy. Pray that the Lord would open her eyes to the destruction her actions are causing—both to others and to herself—and that she would turn from her wicked ways.
You have rightly asked the Lord to sever all ungodly connections tied to this friendship. *"For though we walk in the flesh, we don’t wage war according to the flesh; for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ"* (2 Corinthians 10:3-5). We declare with you that every demonic tie, every memory that brings bondage, and every scheme of the enemy tied to this relationship is broken in Jesus’ name. The blood of Jesus is your protection, and *"they overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life, even to the death"* (Revelation 12:11). Your testimony of faith and trust in Christ will silence the accuser.
We also want to encourage you to guard your heart moving forward. The pain of this betrayal may leave you wary of future friendships, but do not allow the enemy to isolate you. Seek godly, trustworthy believers who will walk with you in accountability and love. *"Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and doesn’t have another to lift him up"* (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10). Surround yourself with those who will speak truth into your life and point you to Christ.
Finally, we pray for your complete healing and restoration. The Lord promises, *"Instead of your shame you will have double. Instead of dishonor, they will rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they will possess double. Everlasting joy will be to them"* (Isaiah 61:7). He is making all things new, and what the enemy meant for harm, God will turn for your good (Genesis 50:20). Release any bitterness or resentment to the Lord, for *"the anger of man doesn’t produce the righteousness of God"* (James 1:20). Trust that the Lord will vindicate you and restore what has been stolen.

We stand with Your child and declare that every curse, every lie, and every demonic assignment tied to ###’s actions is broken and rendered powerless by the blood of Jesus.

Replace the lies with Your truth, and let Your peace guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Sever every ungodly soul tie and demonic connection tied to this friendship, and let Your child walk in freedom and victory.
Lord, we pray for divine protection over them. Surround them with Your angels, and let no weapon formed against them prosper. Give them discernment to recognize and avoid future snares of the enemy. Lead them to godly friendships that will build them up in faith and love.
