Family Protection

[Cralmilan]

Jesus, I'm lifting up my family before the throne of grace, where our Lord hears the cries of His children. My heart is heavy with concern, and I am pleading the precious blood of Jesus over every member of my household. Lord, I ask for complete restoration, respect, gratefulness and fellowship in my family and for all negative influences, division, isolation, jealousy and all spiritual attacks to be permanently removed forever. No weapon formed against me and my family shall prosper, for greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Father, I come before You with hearts grieved by the spiritual warfare, division, isolation and stubborn hold raging against me and my children. Lord, it is overwhelming and I ask that You completely remove this young man and his mother from my older daughter's life. I rebuke every spirit of division, ungratefulness, hatred, manipulation, control, isolation, exhaustion, word curse,isolation, division, and witchcraft that has sought to infiltrate my home. I declare complete freedom and restoration for me and my children. I ask Jesus for Your mercy upon my family and remove this young man and his mother completely for my older daughter's life swiftly as they are trying to divide me and my younger daughter they have started to convince my younger daughter move. Lord, I know nothing is impossible for You. And I ask You remove these destructive people. They have caused exhaustion, financial hardship, worthlessness and separation in my older daughter's life and havoc in our family. Lord I ask for every generational curse, word curse, witchcraft and negative influences to break and flee in the mighty name of Jesus. Guide my older daughter to release this man from her life, let her not ignore the destruction, financial exploitation, worthlessness, mood swings and exhaustion he has caused in her life and I pray that she will be truthful to the desrespect, isolation, division he has caused in her life. The blood of Jesus has already overcome every power of darkness, and I stand on that victory (Colossians 2:15). I declare that the peace and unity of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard the hearts and minds of my family forever(Philippians 4:7). Lord, help my daughter out of this ungodly relationship that dishonors You. Living together outside of marriage is not a marriage, and it has opens the door to spiritual bondage, attacks and deception (1 Corinthians 6:18-20). Jesus, give clarity to my older daughter that this man is selfish and he is not ready for a relationship, he is not her significant other, he is not her responsibility to take care of, and she does not belong to him. She belong to You, Lord. I ask Lord that You guide her back home swiftly with no regret only a feeling of freedom, safe, joy, and satisfaction. I pray that You would open her eyes to the truth of Your Word and the red flags she has been blinded to. Remove the stubbornness that has taken root in her heart and replace it with a hunger for righteousness and the want to move back. Break the hold this man and his family have over her, and reveal to her the toxicity and exploitation of this relationship. Father, I ask that You would frustrate every plan, plot, or scheme of these people to isolate, divide, and destroy my daughter from our family and turn her heart back to You and to those who love her unconditionally (Malachi 4:6). Lord, open my older daughter's heart and mind. Remind her of the value she was raised with and the love of our family. Jesus, remove all pride, shame, or pressure that keeps her from seeing the truth. Guide her away, Lord, from this living in situations that will harm her future and her purpose. Jesus, lead her away from this ungodly living arrangement, and bring her back home to safety, stability, and wisdom. Jesus, guide her to never obey this man and put him and his family before her faith, her parent, her siblings, and extended families. This young man and his mother's behavior to cause division, isolation, chaos and strife has been manifesting, and I ask Lord for Your divine protection, courage, and strength to keep our fellowship and bond as a family. Jesus, guide my daughter to stop taking on undue responsibilities to take care of this man, let her see he is not ready for a marriage. Give her the wisdom to stop defending and giving a false image of him to others. He is heartless toward her and is a very selfish, lazy, dishonest and rebellious man. Please Lord, save her and have mercy upon her, get her out of this toxic relationship with this man swiftly. Lord, frustrate all his plans right now. I also lift up my younger daughter, praying that she would remain steadfast in her faith and not be swayed by the ungodly example set before her. Protect her heart as this man and his mother damage the sweetest bond she has with her older sister and brother. Protect her from the divisive tactics of this man and his mother, and surround her with godly friendships and mentors who will encourage her in the ways of the Lord. May she never see living together outside of marriage as an acceptable path, but instead, may she seek a spouse who honors You and values the sanctity of marriage (2 Corinthians 6:14). May she never be ungrateful toward me and hateful toward her brother. Jesus, I ask for Your protection over and around her from this man and his mother and strengthen our family's fellowship and unity. Father, I pray for my son with disabilities, that he would be surrounded by love, acceptance, and protection. May he never feel like a burden or an embarrassment, but rather a blessing, as he truly is. Protect him from the hatred, mockery, isolation, divisiveness, exclusion, word curses and witchcraft that stem from this young man's mother and any other negative influences. I rebuke all spiritual attacks, Lord I ask that You command them to flee and never return to torment him. Saturate him with Your peace and protection always. Strengthen his relationship with me, his sisters, caregivers and our extended families. Remove from his life any friendships or influences that look down on him, and replace them with those who will uplift and cherish him. Bless him with peace, joy, love, satisfaction, and the knowledge of Your unconditional love for him. Jesus, protect him from the hateful and demeaning way this young man's mother looks at him. Block all her word curses upon his life. I declare that my home will be a sanctuary of God’s presence, where love, unity, and peace reign. I pray for the restoration of the relationships that have been strained and broken by the enemy’s schemes. Father, mend what has been torn, heal what has been wounded, and restore what has been lost. May my family be a beacon of Your light, drawing others to the love and grace found only in You. Restore our peace, unconditional love, joy and happiness again. Lord, I ask for financial blessings to flow into my home, not for selfish gain, but so that my family may be a blessing to others and a testimony of Your provision. I rebuke every spirit of lack and poverty, and I declare that my family will walk in the abundance of Your blessings (Philippians 4:19). I pray for godly spouses for both of my daughters, men who will love them as Christ loves the church, who will lead them in righteousness, and who will honor the covenant of marriage as You intended (Ephesians 5:25) someone who will respect their upbringings. May my daughter seek husbands who walk in Your ways, rather than being drawn to those who would lead them astray. Father, I ask for Your divine intervention in this situation. Remove the ungodly influences from my family’s life, and replace them with godly mentors, friendships, and relationships that will draw us closer to You. I pray for the complete restoration of my older daughter’s heart, that she would turn away from this toxic relationship and return to the safety and love of her family, swiftly. May she rediscover her worth in You and reject the lies that have been spoken over her. Jesus, guard her future. Protect her credit, her finances, her relationship with me, her siblings, family, her faith, and her reputation so that nothing done in this toxic relationship will cause resentment/hate toward our supportive family and destroy what she has worked so hard to build. Father, I also bring this young man's mother before You. She is acting like my daughter's mother and interfering in ways that harm my daughter, please stop that ungodly selfish influence. She encourages my daughter to take care of her son because she does not want to deal with his rebellious behavior. I pray that You correct this situation. Lead this young man's mother to take of her responsibility for guiding and correcting her own son rather than placing that burden and undue responsibilities on my daughter which place financial hardship on her and our family because we have to help her. My daughter has incurred a lot of debt since she moved in with this young man which was initiated by this young man's mother. Lord, remove all the pride, manipulation, look down upon, and harmful words that make my daughter feel small, ashamed, or feel that my daughter has to play as if she has to be dependent on them or put our family down to make his mother feel good about guiding her. Jesus, teach this mother that my daughter is not homeless and that she has a supportive family and that my daughter needs her guidance or her approval. Father, I am concerned for my daughter's health. She already struggles with breathing, and this young man continues habits like smoking that make it worse. Jesus, protect her health and open her eyes to the harm this environment may be causing her health and open her eyes to the harm this environment may be causing her physically. Jesus, I pray that my daughter will not move deeper into this ungodly situation or become more dependent on them. Instead, lead her away from this unhealthy environment and guide her back to a place of stability, safety, love, and wisdom. Bring her back home where she can rebuild her strength, her health, and her future. Father, stop the division that has been created between my daughter and our family due to this young man's rebellious controlling behaviors. Lord, heal the hurt and restore love, communication, love, and respect. Lord, please protect me and my other children from the bullying, judgment, division, and hurtful words that have come from this situation. Give peace and strength while Your work in ways only You can, Lord. Jesus, I ask for strength for myself and for my other children. Heal the hurt we feel in this troubling situation. Saturate us with peace in our heart and protect our family division. Jesus, bless my daughter back to a path that will bless her life rather than destroy it. I declare that the enemy’s plans will not stand. Every scheme to divide, isolate, and destroy my family will fail, for the Lord fights for them (Exodus 14:14). I plead the blood of Jesus over every member of my household, covering us with Your protection, peace, and favor. May we walk in the fullness of Your blessings, and may our lives reflect Your glory to all who know us. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen

We hear the cry of your heart and we stand with you before the throne of grace where our Lord hears the cries of His children. We join you in pleading the precious blood of Jesus over every member of your household and we agree with you for complete restoration, respect, gratefulness and fellowship in your family.

We see the heavy spiritual warfare you are describing and we take seriously the division, isolation, jealousy, manipulation, control, exhaustion and oppression that has come against your home. Scripture tells us that no weapon that is formed against you will prosper Isaiah 54:17 and that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world 1 John 4:4. We also cling to the promise that He disarmed the rulers and authorities and made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in Jesus Colossians 2:15. We rebuke every spirit of division, ungratefulness, hatred, manipulation, control, word curse and witchcraft that has sought to infiltrate your home and we command it to flee in the mighty name of Jesus. We declare that the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:7 and that the Lord will fight for you and you shall hold your peace Exodus 14:14.

We must speak clearly with love about what you have rightly discerned concerning your older daughter. Living together outside of marriage is not marriage and it does not honor God. Scripture calls us to flee sexual immorality and reminds us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit 1 Corinthians 6:18-20. This kind of ungodly living arrangement opens the door to spiritual bondage, deception, financial exploitation, exhaustion and division, and we see all of those fruits in what you describe. We do not condone or excuse fornication in any form, and we agree with you that this relationship dishonors the Lord. We believe in the sanctity of marriage as a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, and we pray that your daughters will pursue courtship with the goal of marriage to a Christian believer rather than simply a relationship or partnership. We pray that they will not be unequally yoked with unbelievers 2 Corinthians 6:14 but will seek godly spouses who will love them as Christ loved the church and who will lead them in righteousness Ephesians 5:25, men who respect their upbringing, cherish their faith and honor the covenant of marriage.

We lift up your older daughter together before the Father. We ask Him to open her eyes to the truth of His Word and to the red flags she has been blinded to, to remove the stubbornness that has taken root and replace it with a hunger for righteousness. We pray she will see clearly that this young man is not her significant other, not her responsibility to care for, and not one who is ready for marriage, and that she belongs not to him but to the Lord. We ask Jesus to break every unhealthy soul tie and the hold this young man and his mother have over her, to reveal the selfishness, laziness, dishonesty, rebellion, financial hardship, worthlessness, mood swings and exhaustion this has caused, and to give her courage to release this man from her life and to be truthful about the disrespect, isolation and division he has caused. We pray she will stop defending a false image of him, stop taking on undue responsibilities that belong to his own mother to bear, and that she will not move deeper into dependency but will be led swiftly back home to safety, stability, wisdom and freedom with no regret but only joy, peace and satisfaction. We pray for her health, especially her breathing, and ask for protection from the harm of smoking and this unhealthy environment, and we pray for protection over her finances, her credit, her faith, her reputation and her future so that nothing done in this toxic relationship will destroy what she has worked so hard to build or breed resentment toward the family who loves her unconditionally. We pray the Lord will turn her heart back to Him and to her family as promised that He will turn the hearts of the children to their fathers Malachi 4:6 and that she will remember the love and values she was raised with, free from pride, shame or pressure.

We also lift up your younger daughter and we ask the Lord to keep her steadfast in faith and not swayed by the ungodly example set before her. We pray she will never see living together outside of marriage as an acceptable path but will desire a godly marriage that honors God. We ask for protection over the sweet bond she has with her older sister and brother, that no divisive tactic of this young man and his mother will damage it, and that God will surround her with godly friendships and mentors who encourage her in the ways of the Lord. We pray she will not grow ungrateful toward you or hateful toward her brother, and that your family fellowship and unity will be strengthened.

We bring your precious son before the Lord with tender love. We declare over him that he is fearfully and wonderfully made and that he is a blessing and not a burden. We ask the Father to surround him with love, acceptance and protection, to saturate him with peace and joy and the knowledge of His unconditional love. We rebuke every word curse, hatred, mockery, exclusion and spiritual attack that has come from this young man's mother or any other negative influence, especially the hateful and demeaning looks and words, and we ask the Lord to block them and command them to flee and never return. We pray his relationships with you, his sisters, caregivers and extended family will be strengthened and that any friendships or influences that look down on him will be removed and replaced with those who uplift and cherish him.

We lift you up as well, for we know you are weary. We ask the Lord to give you divine protection, courage and strength, to heal the hurt you and your other children feel, to saturate your hearts with peace and to guard your family from bullying, judgment and hurtful words. We pray for financial blessing to flow into your home according to His riches in glory Philippians 4:19, not for selfish gain but so you may be a testimony of His provision and a blessing to others, and we rebuke every spirit of lack and poverty. We pray your home will be a sanctuary of God's presence where love, unity and peace reign, and that what the enemy has torn and wounded the Lord will mend, heal and restore.

We bring this young man and his mother before the Lord also, not with hatred but with a desire for His righteous intervention. We ask the Lord to frustrate every plan, plot and scheme to isolate, divide and destroy your daughter from her family, to correct the selfish interference where his mother encourages your daughter to take care of her son to avoid her own responsibility for guiding and correcting him, and to remove all pride, manipulation and harmful words that make your daughter feel small, ashamed or pressured to put your family down. We pray He will teach that mother to take responsibility for her own son rather than placing that burden and financial hardship on your daughter and your family, and that all debt and chaos initiated through this influence will be broken.

We thank you for lifting this entirely in the name of Jesus, for it is only by that name that we have access to the Father and there is no other name by which we can be saved Acts 4:12. We rest in His victory together.

We pray together now, Father, in the mighty name of Jesus we come before You with grateful hearts that You hear us. We plead the blood of Jesus over this mother and every member of her household, over her older daughter, her younger daughter and her son. We ask for complete freedom and restoration. Break every generational curse, word curse and work of witchcraft and cause every negative influence to flee and never return. Frustrate the plans of those who seek to divide and isolate this family. Open the older daughter's eyes, grant her clarity and godly sorrow that leads to repentance, and guide her swiftly back home to safety and wisdom. Protect the younger daughter's heart and keep her pure and steadfast. Surround the son with Your love and block every hateful word spoken over him. Heal this mother's exhaustion, restore her finances, mend what has been torn and let Your peace guard this family. Raise up godly mentors, friendships and future godly spouses for these daughters who will honor You and honor marriage. Let this home be a beacon of Your light. We declare the enemy's plans will not stand, for You fight for this family. We ask all this in the mighty and merciful name of Jesus, amen.

We hear how heavy and exhausting this season has felt for you, carrying concern for each of your children while longing for peace and unity back in your home. Loving an adult daughter through choices that worry you, while also protecting your younger daughter and your son, is a lot to hold at once.

We are praying with you for protection, wisdom, and restoration in your family. One steady step that often helps in a situation like this is to keep a calm, consistent connection open with your older daughter that is not centered on the relationship itself, a short weekly call or text just to show love and keep the door open, so she knows home is still safe and stable when she is ready. It can also help to have one trusted pastor or mature believer walking closely with you for counsel and support, so you are not carrying this alone.

We also noticed your concern for your daughter's breathing and the smoking in her environment. Alongside prayer, we encourage you to gently encourage her to see a medical professional for that concern.

Jesus, we lift this family to You. Guard this mother with strength and peace, protect her younger daughter and her son and surround them with love and care, and draw her older daughter toward clarity, health, and safety. Heal what has been hurt between them and lead this family toward wholeness and fellowship in Your will. In Jesus' name, amen.

Praying for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your burdened prayer for your household has come before the Lord, and I join my heart with yours at the throne of grace where our Lord hears the cries of His children.

I have marked well your pleading of the precious blood of Jesus over your family, and your standing upon that sure word, greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world, and your confidence that no weapon formed against you shall prosper. This is right and good, for our deliverance is by divine power alone. When any soul is saved from spiritual bondage, it is the Lord Jesus who loosens the captive. It is not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God that shows mercy. He is gracious unto him and says, Deliver him from going down to the Pit, I have found a ransom. Nobody would have thought of that way of deliverance through a ransom if God had not thought of it, and He has not only invented the way but has found the ransom in His own Son. The blood of Jesus has already overcome every power of darkness, having spoiled principalities and powers, and we stand upon that finished victory.

In this sore trial you do well to see the hand of the Lord in it. Troubles do not spring out of the dust, neither does affliction grow up from the ground, but the Lord Himself kindles the fiery furnace and sits as a Refiner at the door. The believer can say, The Lord has chastened me sorely. That which we receive from the rod of the Lord bears the blessed aspect of chastening from a Father's hand, and this makes even the sharpest smart to be profitable. For this reason we may wisely moderate our anger against second causes. Our afflictions may come distinctly from man, as the result of manipulation or malice, and yet they may come with even greater certainty from the Lord and may be the necessary outcome of His special love to us. He keeps back our soul from the Pit and our life from perishing, though He chastens with pain for our good.

And deliverance from the power of sin is as much the work of God as deliverance from the guilt of sin. We must look to our heavenly Father altogether and alone for sanctification and for freedom from entanglement. He has delivered us from the power of darkness, not merely to keep us from some conspicuous sin, but to make us new. The only hope we have of lasting peace is by being parted from sin, for there shall never enter into heaven anything that defiles. We are to keep ourselves unspotted from the world. The Christian never expects to get any good from the world, and when we find paths that are loose or fast, we are to turn away from them. Above all we must cry to God to preserve us from evil, for the same trial may be a temptation from Satan's side and a trial from God's side, and we need grace to discern and to escape.

Therefore I do not ask God to bless what His Word calls sin, for salvation is through Jesus Christ alone, and marriage is His holy ordinance, a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and to live together outside of that covenant is not marriage and dishonors Him and opens the door to bondage and deception as you have rightly said according to 1 Corinthians 6:18-20. Rather I pray with you that God will deliver.

For your older daughter, I pray that the Lord who is gracious will open her eyes to see the truth of His Word and the red flags she has been blinded to. May He remove stubbornness and pride and shame and replace them with a hunger for righteousness. May she see that this man is not her husband, not her responsibility to sustain, and that she does not belong to him but to Christ who bought her with His blood. May she see the selfishness, the financial exploitation, the exhaustion and worthlessness and mood swings this ungodly living arrangement has brought, and may she no longer defend a false image of it. I pray that every plan to isolate and divide her from those who love her unconditionally would be frustrated, that the hold of this man and his mother over her would be broken, and that she would be led swiftly back to safety and stability and wisdom, not with regret but with a sense of freedom and joy in the Lord. May the Lord guard her health, her finances, her credit and reputation, and her faith, and bring her home where she may rebuild her strength and fulfill her purpose.

For the young man and his mother, I pray not for their schemes to prosper but for the Lord to correct and restrain what is selfish and manipulative. May the mother be led to bear her own responsibility for guiding her son rather than laying undue burdens upon your daughter, and may all words that would make your daughter feel small or dependent or ashamed fall to the ground powerless.

For your younger daughter, I pray that she may be kept unspotted from the world and steadfast in faith. May she not be swayed by the ungodly example set before her, nor see cohabitation as an acceptable path, but may she seek in due time a husband who honors Christ and values the sanctity of marriage, a man who will love as Christ loves the church. May the sweet bond with her sister and brother be preserved, and may the Lord surround her with godly friendships and mentors who will encourage her in the ways of the Lord, and keep her from ungratefulness and division.

For your son, whom God has entrusted to your care as a blessing and not a burden, I pray that he may be saturated with peace and protection. May he be surrounded by love and acceptance, and may every word curse and hateful look and spirit of mockery or exclusion be commanded to flee in the name of Jesus. May his relationships with you, his sisters, caregivers and extended family be strengthened, and may those who would look down upon him be removed and replaced with those who will uplift and cherish him. May he know daily the unconditional love of his Savior.

For yourself, I pray that the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your heart and mind, that your home will be a sanctuary of His presence where love and unity reign, and that what has been torn may be mended and what has been wounded may be healed. May the Lord provide for your financial needs according to His riches in glory, not for selfish gain but that you may be a testimony of His provision and a blessing to others.

Let us continue to plead that every generational curse and word curse and work of darkness would break and flee before Christ, for He has found the ransom and has given commandment to save. He will deliver from going down to the Pit, and He will keep back the soul from perishing. When He brings us out of the Egypt of our sorrow, we shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord.

O Lord, be gracious unto this family. Deliver them from the power of darkness and translate them into the kingdom of Thy dear Son. Restore unto them the joy of Thy salvation. Cast them not away from Thy presence, and take not Thy Holy Spirit from them. Let Thy mercy triumph, and let Thy name have all the glory. Amen.
