We stand with you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we have access to the Father and through whom all deliverance and freedom is found. Your prayer is bold and rooted in Scripture, and we join you in declaring the victory that is already yours in Christ. The enemy has no authority over those who are covered by the blood of Jesus, and we take our stand on that truth today.
First, we rebuke every false accusation of bitterness and unforgiveness that has been leveled against you. The enemy is the accuser of the brethren, but we stand on Zechariah 3:2, which declares, *"May Yahweh rebuke you, Satan! Yes, may Yahweh, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Isn’t this a burning stick plucked out of the fire?"* We declare that any lie suggesting you harbor unforgiveness is dismantled in Jesus' name. The Lord knows your heart, and we pray that He would reveal any area where unforgiveness may have taken root so that you can release it fully to Him. Forgiveness is not a feeling but a choice, and we encourage you to walk in the freedom that comes from releasing others as Christ has released you. Ephesians 4:31-32 reminds us, *"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."*
We also stand with you against any witchcraft, divination, or spells that have been directed toward you or your son. These are abominations to the Lord, and we declare them null and void by the power of the blood of Jesus. Revelation 12:11 declares, *"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 death."* We cancel every assignment of the enemy over your lives and bind every spirit of witchcraft in the name of Jesus. Matthew 18:18 assures us, *"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."* We declare that every principality and power working against you is disarmed, as Colossians 2:15 proclaims, *"having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it."* The cross of Christ is your victory, and we declare that no weapon formed against you or your son shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17).
We also address the provocations coming from your mother that seek to create unforgiveness in your heart. Exodus 23:27 warns, *"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 confuse every plan of the enemy to provoke strife and that He would soften your mother’s heart. If there is unrepentant sin in her life, we pray that the Holy Spirit would convict her and draw her to repentance. We also encourage you to guard your heart, as Proverbs 4:23 instructs, *"Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life."* Do not allow the enemy to use her words or actions to plant seeds of bitterness in you. Instead, we pray that you would respond with grace and truth, trusting God to be your defender.
We declare restoration over you and your son, standing on Isaiah 61:7, which says, *"Instead of your shame you will have double; and instead of dishonor, they will rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they will possess double. Everlasting joy will be to them."* The Lord is your rescuer, and we pray that He would surround you with godly support, as 2 Timothy 4:18 promises, *"And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom; to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen."* We also pray that the Lord would send His angels to encamp around you and your son, as Psalm 91:11 declares, *"For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways."*
Father God, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, the only mediator between God and man. We thank You for the authority You have given us to trample over serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy (Luke 10:19). We declare that no weapon formed against this family shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You will condemn. We pray for healing and protection over them, that Your standards would be lifted high against every attack of the devil. Isaiah 59:19 says, *"So shall they fear the name of Yahweh from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come as a rushing stream, which the breath of Yahweh drives."* We declare that the breath of the Lord is driving back every assignment of darkness over their lives.
Lord, we ask that You would break every generational curse or iniquity that may be at work in this situation. Exodus 20:5-6 warns that the iniquities of the fathers can be visited on the children, but we declare that the blood of Jesus has broken every chain. We pray that You would reveal any open doors in their lives that have allowed the enemy access and that You would shut them permanently. We also pray for wisdom and discernment for them, that they would recognize the enemy’s tactics and resist him steadfastly in the faith (1 Peter 5:9).
We encourage you to walk in the fullness of your identity in Christ. You are not a victim but a victor, and the enemy has no right to harass you. James 4:7 declares, *"Be subject therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* Stand firm in your faith, and do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you do not faint (Galatians 6:9). Surround yourself with believers who can stand with you in prayer and accountability, and immerse yourself in the Word of God, which is sharper than any two-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12).
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the deliverance and freedom that is already ours in Christ. We declare that this family is covered by the blood of Jesus, and we pray that You would fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Strengthen them in their inner man, and let them walk in the fullness of the freedom You have purchased for them. We pray that You would restore what the enemy has stolen and that You would turn their mourning into dancing (Psalm 30:11). May they know the height, depth, and width of Your love for them, and may they walk in the authority You have given them as Your children.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
