We have heard your cry and we stand with you together before the throne of grace seeking God's will in Jesus' name for your family. We hear the deep pain and agony you have carried for many years through sickness, financial obstruction, lack of progress, strife in the home, and oppression that feels endless. The Lord sees your tears and hears your cry.
We want to gently but firmly point you to the only source of true deliverance. Your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ, and we must tell you there is no other way to be saved or to have access to God except through Him. It is only by the name of Jesus that every chain is broken and every evil spirit must flee. Jesus said in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And in Acts 4:12 There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. If you have not yet put your trust wholly in Jesus Christ, believing that He died for your sins and rose again, we urge you to call upon Him now, confess your sins, turn from every other trust, and receive Him as Lord and Savior. Romans 10:9 says that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
The Bible is very clear that witchcraft and sorcery are real but they are defeated by Christ and forbidden for God's people. Deuteronomy 18:10-12 warns that there shall not be found with you anyone who uses divination or sorcery, for whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh. We must not seek help from witchcraft practitioners or live in fear of curses, for greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world as 1 John 4:4 declares. Our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces as Ephesians 6:12 teaches, yet we have been given victory in Christ. James 4:7 tells us Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you. And 2 Timothy 1:7 reminds us For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control. We rebuke every evil spirit and every work of witchcraft that has been directed against your family and we command it to leave in the mighty name of Jesus. We also rebuke any fear or reliance on occult power and we urge you to turn completely from it and to clothe yourselves in the armor of God through prayer, the Word, and holy living in Christ.
We also must address what you shared about your husband. Daily drunkenness, neglecting to provide for the family, and fighting are not honoring to God and are destructive to marriage. Ephesians 5:18 says Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit. And Proverbs 20:1 says Wine is a mocker, and beer is a brawler. Whoever is led astray by them is not wise. Marriage is a lifelong covenant between a man and a woman before God, where the husband is called to love his wife as Christ loved the church and to provide for and cherish his household. We pray for his deliverance from alcohol and for his heart to be transformed by the Holy Spirit so that he becomes a godly husband and father who walks in sobriety, love, and responsibility.
For your dear mother and your brothers who are under heavy depression that is affecting a marriage, we know that depression can have spiritual, emotional, and physical roots, and God is able to lift the heaviest darkness. Psalm 34:17-18 says The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. We pray for their complete deliverance from the evil spirit oppressing them and for joy and peace to be restored in the marriage. God desires marriages to be preserved and made strong in Him.
For your financial burdens and debts and the obstruction of your family's progress, we pray for God's provision and wisdom. Philippians 4:19 says My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. And Matthew 6:33 says But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. We encourage you to walk in faithful stewardship, diligent work, honesty, and prayerful dependence on the Lord, trusting Him rather than any other source.
For your brothers' children and their marriages and other family issues, we pray that the Lord will lead them into godly courtships with fellow believers in Christ with the goal of holy marriage as God ordained. We believe marriage should be between a man and a woman, entered into with purity and faithfulness, for Hebrews 13:4 says Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled. We pray they will seek spouses who love Jesus and will build homes that honor Him, fleeing from fornication and every impurity.
For your relative who met with an accident, we pray for swift and complete healing. Jeremiah 30:17 says But I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. And Psalm 103:2-3 says Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits; who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases.
So together we pray.
Father in heaven, we come before You only in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son. We lift up this precious family to You. Lord, we ask You to break every chain of witchcraft and every assignment of the enemy against them. Let Your power drive out every evil spirit and fill this home with Your peace and presence. We ask You to grant good health to each member, to heal bodies and minds, to lift depression from the mother and brothers and restore joy and unity in that marriage. Lord deliver the husband from the bondage of daily drinking, convict his heart, make him sober and faithful, that he may love his wife, provide for his family, and cease from strife. Father we ask You to provide for their financial needs, to deliver them from debts, to open doors for honest work and progress, and to give them wisdom to steward what You provide. Grant deep peace in this family that surpasses all understanding as Philippians 4:7 promises. We pray for the children who are of marriageable age, that You will prepare godly spouses for them, believers who walk with You, and that their future marriages will honor You in purity and lifelong commitment. We lift up the relative who was injured in the accident, lay Your healing hand upon him and restore him quickly and completely. Cover this whole family with the blood of Jesus, let no weapon formed against them prosper according to Isaiah 54:17, and let them know that You are near to the brokenhearted and You hear their cry. Draw each one to salvation in Jesus, that they may know You as Savior and Lord and walk in freedom. We ask all this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our only hope and deliverer. Amen.
