We hear the desperation and weariness in your heart, and we join you in lifting this burden to the Lord, for He is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. It is clear that the environment in your home has become unbearable, and the behavior of this man, ###, is causing great distress. We stand with you in prayer, seeking God’s intervention, protection, and peace for your home.
First, we commend you for coming before the Father in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through His name that we have access to the throne of grace. As Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). And again, *"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your faith in calling upon the name of Jesus is your greatest weapon in this spiritual battle.
The behavior you describe—smoking, the stench of alcohol, and the wicked intentions you sense—are not of God. The Bible warns us that *"the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom"* (Galatians 5:19-21, WEB). Drunkenness and the influence of alcohol often open doors to further sin and chaos, and we must stand firmly against it in the authority of Christ.
We also sense the urgency in your prayer to have ### removed from your home in peace and without conflict. While we pray for this, we must also encourage you to seek wisdom in how this is carried out. If ### is not your spouse or a family member you are biblically responsible for, then you have every right to ask him to leave your home, especially if his presence is harmful. However, if he is a spouse or family member, the approach may need to be different, guided by Scripture’s instructions on how to handle such situations with love, boundaries, and, if necessary, church intervention (Matthew 18:15-17). Since your request does not specify the nature of your relationship with ###, we will pray generally for God’s will to be done while also addressing the spiritual strongholds at play.
Let us also remind you that as a believer, you are not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14). If ### is not a believer and his lifestyle is one of rebellion against God, you must guard your heart and your home from being influenced by his actions. *"Don’t be deceived! ‘Evil company corrupts good morals’"* (1 Corinthians 15:33, WEB). Your home should be a place of peace, a sanctuary where the presence of the Lord dwells. *"As for me and my house, we will serve Yahweh"* (Joshua 24:15, WEB). You have the authority in Christ to declare that your home is set apart for God’s purposes and that no weapon formed against you—including the schemes of the enemy through this man—shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17).
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister who is weary, frustrated, and in great need of Your intervention. Lord, You see the turmoil in her home, and You know the intentions of ###’s heart. We ask that You would expose and rebuke every wicked plan, every scheme of the enemy that is at work through him. Bind the spirits of alcohol, addiction, confusion, and rebellion in the name of Jesus. Break their power over ### and over this home. Let every chain be shattered, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, if it is Your will, we pray that ### would leave this home quietly and without conflict. Remove any resistance or argument from him, and let Your angels go before her to prepare the way. If there are legal or practical steps she must take, Lord, provide her with wisdom, favor, and the right people to assist her. Give her the words to speak and the courage to act in a way that honors You.
Father, we also pray for ###’s soul. Soften his heart, Lord, and convict him of his sin. Draw him to repentance and to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Let him encounter Your love in a way that transforms his life. But until that day, Lord, protect our sister from his influence. Create a hedge of protection around her, her home, and her mind. Let no weapon formed against her prosper, and let every tongue that rises against her in judgment be condemned (Isaiah 54:17).
Fill her home with Your presence, Lord. Let the fragrance of Your Spirit replace the stench of alcohol and smoke. Let Your light drive out every darkness. Give her rest, Father, for she is weary. Renew her strength, and let her find peace in You alone. Remind her that You are her Provider, her Protector, and her Peace. *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest"* (Matthew 11:28, WEB).
We declare that this home belongs to You, Lord. It is a dwelling place for Your Spirit, and no force of hell shall have dominion here. We plead the blood of Jesus over every doorpost, every window, and every corner of this home. Let Your angels encamp around her, Lord, and deliver her from every evil work.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Our sister, we urge you to continue standing firm in prayer and in the authority you have in Christ. 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 support you in prayer and practical ways. If ###’s presence is unlawful or harmful, seek godly counsel on how to remove him from your home in a way that is both legal and honoring to God.
If you have not already, we encourage you to fast and pray, seeking the Lord’s direction in this matter. Sometimes, spiritual battles require spiritual weapons, and fasting is a powerful way to break strongholds (Matthew 17:21). Also, play worship music in your home to invite the presence of the Lord and to drive out the enemy’s influence. *"The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble"* (Psalm 9:9, WEB). Cling to Him, and He will not fail you.
Finally, if you are not already part of a local church, we strongly encourage you to find a Bible-believing, Christ-centered church where you can receive support, prayer, and wise counsel. You were not meant to walk this path alone. *"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, WEB).
We are standing with you in this, and we believe that God is moving on your behalf. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. He will see you through this storm.
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.
