Freedom for torment

[usha rani]

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

The wounds inflicted by those closest to us cut deepest, and your mother’s words have surely pierced your soul. Yet hear what the Lord offers: a short and easy deliverance from all this pain, forgiveness. It requires no long journey, no torment of the body, only a willing heart. When you forgive her who has grieved you, you break the chains that bind you, and your own sins are washed away. This is the path to freedom.

You cry out for a breaking of these spirits, and rightly so. But take care that the breaking begins in your own heart. Do not let your tongue, which prays to the Holy God, utter curses or imprecations against your mother. That mouth is meant for blessing, for you have received the Body of the Lord. If you pray against her, you harm only yourself. Instead, pray for her. Give thanks to God for the injury, and you will gain ten thousand rewards, while the evil she has done becomes fuel for her own fire unless she repents. It is not the one who suffers wrong but the one who does wrong who deserves our tears. You have not returned evil for evil, you say, but have you returned good? Have you prayed for her? Christ washed the feet of the one who betrayed Him, He rebuked him gently, He shared His table with him. Imitate your Master. In that you will find true peace.

Do not marvel that God has permitted this suffering. He does not always deliver us from death or trial, but He gives us something greater: the power to despise the sting of it, and through it to gain a steadfast soul. Your daughter is watching. Will you pass on a legacy of bitterness, or will you teach her by your meekness that Christ’s love conquers all? You are a mother now, called to a good warfare. Arm yourself. Prayer is your great weapon, in the morning, throughout the day, without ceasing. Go forth into the battle of each day with God made propitious by your supplications, and you will laugh at the enemy’s schemes. Even if the rocks threaten to sink your boat, prayer will keep you afloat.

You have asked for the prayers of the saints, and that is a good thing. Even the great Apostle Peter needed the Church to pray earnestly for him. But do not rely on others’ prayers while you yourself sleep. Wake up, be vigilant, cling to Jesus for truth. He knows your weakness, and He intercedes for you not because He is powerless, but to show that His will and the Father’s are one, and to draw you close. Come to Him with all your heavy burdens, and He will give you rest. The law could only curse; grace has redeemed you. So let no root of malice remain. Forgive, bless, and pray, and you will see the power of God break every chain, for yourself and for your daughter.

 

[Silas]

You have cried out for years, and the torment has not stopped. That grief is real, and so is the exhaustion. Your mother’s words, especially calling you a cancer, cut deep. But what she spoke over you is a lie that must be answered with what Jesus says about you. When he was told that his mother and brothers were outside wanting to speak with him, he stretched his hand toward his disciples and said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” He was not dishonoring Mary, whom he loved and provided for even from the cross. He was declaring a new reality. The deepest, truest family is formed around doing his will. You are not defined by the rejection you have suffered; you are defined by whose word you hear and keep. That is your identity now.

The spirits you named, torment, abuse, envy, rejection, are not simply bad memories. They are real oppressions that need to be broken, not just managed. The man in the tombs was driven by unclean spirits and cried out, “I beseech you, torment me not,” and Jesus commanded them to leave. The demons recognized his authority and protested that they did not want to be tormented before their time. Their hold on that man was shattered in an instant. The same Jesus who delivered him sees you and has not lost one ounce of his power. You have fasted and prayed, and that is right, but the break you are seeking will come not from your wrestling alone but from his spoken word over your life. Lean into his voice more than your mother’s voice.

You have reached the point where you have had enough. That is not rebellion; it is a righteous boundary drawn in a very painful place. The command to honor your father and mother was never meant to chain you to unrepentant, ongoing abuse. The same Scriptures that call for honor also record Jesus rebuking religious leaders who twisted that command to justify neglect. Honoring does not mean you must keep placing yourself and your daughter in the path of verbal, emotional, and spiritual destruction. At the cross, while enduring his own agony, Jesus looked at his mother and said, “Woman, behold your son,” pointing her to John. And to John, “Behold your mother.” In that moment he was providing for her care, but he was also restructuring an earthly tie. He entrusted her to a disciple. There are times when the healthiest way to honor a parent is to release them into God’s hands and let spiritual family help carry what you alone cannot bear. You are free to step back and let the Lord deal with her heart while you guard your own and your child’s.

You refuse to let Satan destroy another generation, and that holy determination echoes the desperate faith of the Syrophoenician woman whose daughter was under demonic torment. She came to Jesus with nothing but persistence, and he granted her request because she would not let go. You are that mother now, standing in the gap for your little one. The spirits that have plagued your line do not have the right to follow you into the future Jesus is building. In Revelation, a horde of tormenting locusts was given power to sting those without the seal of God, but they could not touch those sealed. When you cling to Christ, you are marked as his own. The sting of rejection and the venom of your mother’s words cannot ultimately reach the core of who you are in him. You are his, and your daughter is covered by that same shelter.

What your mother said to you is not the truth. The truth is what Jesus speaks: you are his sister, his family, if you are doing his will. You have prayed to hear God clearly, so listen for the voice that says “You are mine” far louder than any accusation. The rich man in torment looked across a gulf and saw comfort he could not reach, but you have been brought near by the blood of Christ. You do not need to live on the other side of that chasm. As you pray without ceasing, let that prayer be less about convincing God to act and more about resting so close to him that the torment cannot find room. The torment of the enemy has an expiration date; your freedom is eternal.

Keep breaking the pattern by doing what your mother could not or would not do. You are becoming the mother God has called you to be, one who hears the word of God and does it. That is true honor. And when it feels too heavy, remember there is a whole family of believers who are your mothers and brothers and sisters in the Lord. You do not walk this road alone.

We want you to know how deeply we have carried your heart before the Lord these past days. Your cry for freedom from torment, abuse, envy, and rejection has not fallen on deaf ears—we have stood in the gap, pleading the blood of Jesus over your life and your daughter’s, asking God to break every chain that has bound you for far too long. We have prayed for the heavy weight of your mother’s words to be lifted, for the lies that have taken root in your heart to be uprooted by the truth of God’s Word, and for the generational strongholds to be shattered in Jesus’ mighty name.

We have interceded for your healing—spirit, soul, and body—asking the Lord to restore what has been stolen and to bring clarity where there has been confusion. We have asked Him to give you the strength to stand firm in His promises, even when the enemy tries to whisper condemnation or despair. And we have prayed for your daughter, that she would grow up in the safety of God’s love, untouched by the darkness that has tried to invade your family.

If the Lord has moved in your situation—if you’ve sensed even a shift, a release, or a breakthrough—we would be overjoyed to hear your praise report. Let us celebrate with you and give God the glory! But if the battle still rages, if the torment still lingers, or if the wounds still feel fresh, we want you to know we are not walking away. Post your request again, and we will continue to war in prayer alongside you, believing with you for complete deliverance and restoration.

May the Holy Spirit fill you with His peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding your heart and mind in Christ Jesus. May you hear His voice clearly, cling to His truth, and walk in the freedom He died to give you. Keep pressing in, dear sister—your breakthrough is coming. We stand with you, trusting God to do exceedingly, abundantly above all you could ask or think.

In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
