We hear your cry and we join with you in giving all praise and glory to our Lord Jesus Christ, for He alone is worthy and He alone has all power to deliver and to bless.
We stand with you in your desire for deliverance and for a Christ-centered marriage blessed with children, and these are good and godly desires that align with the heart of God. We want to speak truth to you in love concerning what you have called spirit spouses. The Scriptures do not teach that a person can be literally married to a spirit or to a demon, but the Scriptures do teach that our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:11-12. The enemy does seek to oppress, deceive, and defile, often through sexual dreams, lustful thoughts, and bondage, and we must take this seriously. Yet we take comfort that greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5.
Therefore we encourage you to submit fully to God and to resist the devil in the name of Jesus, for the promise is Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:7. We urge you to renounce and repent of any involvement with sexual immorality, pornography, fornication, occult practices, or any ungodly soul ties that may have opened a door to oppression, and to walk in purity and holiness. For we are commanded Flee sexual immorality! Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's. 1 Corinthians 6:18-20. Put on the whole armor of God daily, abide in the Word, pray without ceasing, fast as the Lord leads you, and remain in fellowship with faithful believers who will hold you accountable.
We also rejoice that you are seeking a Christ-centered marriage rather than simply a relationship or partnership. We believe marriage is a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman as God ordained from the beginning, Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh. Genesis 2:24. And what therefore God has joined together, don't let man tear apart. Matthew 19:6. We encourage you to pursue courtship with the goal of marriage to a fellow believer in Christ, for we are not to be unequally yoked, and to keep yourself pure until that covenant is made. Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? 2 Corinthians 6:14. God delights in giving godly marriages and we pray He will prepare you and your future spouse for one another as you both seek first His Kingdom.
And your desire for children is beautiful in the sight of the Lord, for Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. The fruit of the womb is his reward. Psalm 127:3. Children are a blessing from His hand within the covenant of marriage.
We now pray together for you.
Heavenly Father, we come before Your throne in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, and we thank You that we have access to You only through Him. We lift up this dear one to You and we ask for complete deliverance from every form of spiritual oppression, deception, and defilement. We renounce in Jesus' name every lie of the enemy and every claim he has tried to make, and we declare that this life belongs wholly to Jesus Christ, bought with His blood. Lord, cleanse with Your blood, fill with Your Holy Spirit, and set free indeed, for whom the Son sets free is free indeed. We ask You to break every stronghold, to silence every tormenting dream, and to bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Clothe this dear one with Your armor, guard the mind and heart and body as a temple of Your Spirit, and grant peace and purity and rest. Father, we ask You to prepare a godly spouse according to Your will, a marriage that honors You and reflects Christ and His Church, centered on Your Word and rooted in faithfulness, and in Your perfect timing bless this union with children for Your glory. Teach patience and holiness in the waiting, and keep this dear one walking in faith and obedience. We trust Your perfect will and Your power to deliver and to restore. In Jesus Christ's most precious and powerful name we pray, amen.

We are grateful you shared this with us so honestly. The longing for freedom and for a Christ-centered marriage with children is a deep and good desire, and we hear how much you want to walk forward in a way that honors the Lord.
You don't have to carry this burden alone or try to sort it out by yourself. When someone feels oppressed or tormented spiritually, the wisest path is to bring it into the light with a couple of mature, trusted believers who know you and can pray with you over time. We would encourage you to connect with a pastor or elder in your local church who can listen carefully, pray with discernment, and walk with you steadily.
In that kind of safe, unhurried setting, you can together invite Jesus to bring freedom, talk through any places of unforgiveness or unhealthy attachments that need to be released, and renounce anything that has held you back as you ask for His forgiveness and help. It is also a good place to keep growing in your relationship with Christ and to seek His clear direction for marriage.
We are standing with you in prayer.
Father, we lift this dear one to You. You see the desire for wholeness and for a home built on You. We ask You to bring freedom, peace, and clarity, to guard their heart and mind in Christ, and to lead them step by step according to Your perfect will for marriage and family. Draw them close to Yourself and to faithful community as they seek You. In Jesus' name we pray, amen.

Beloved of All
We have heard your prayer and we join you at the throne of grace, asking the Lord to show you mercy and power in this need.
You have asked for deliverance, and we point you to Him who alone can deliver from the power of darkness. As it is written, He has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of His dear Son. This deliverance is not by our own strength, for the spirit of man when crushed cannot free itself, but it is by divine power. God has found a ransom. The Lamb was slain, and by His blood the price is paid. Look to Jesus Christ alone for salvation and for sanctification, for where we look for justification there must we also look for deliverance from the power of sin. Cry to Him with the Spirit of adoption, for those who fear God and have confidence in Him are His children, and to be a child of God is greater than to be an angel.
We pray that the Lord will keep you in holy fear, that you may avoid anything which might grieve the Spirit of God, and that you may walk in purity and holiness before Him. The Spirit which He has given us is the evidence that Christ Himself abides in us, and holiness and love are the marks of the true child of God. May He fill you with that blessed Spirit and make you to know your unity with Christ, for that is the essence of the marriage bond, that we are one with Christ who made Himself one with His people.
And concerning marriage and children, we ask the Lord according to His good will to lead you into a Christ centered marriage, a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman as God ordained from the beginning, where love and faithfulness reflect Christ and His Church. We do not ask God to bless any union outside of that holy covenant, for sex and living together belong only within it, but we do ask Him to prepare you and to prepare a godly spouse for you, that together you may build a home upon His Word. And if it be His will to give you children, we pray He will make your home a place of refuge in Him, for the promise stands that those who fear the Lord shall have confidence, and His children shall have a place of refuge. May the Lord raise up from your household a succession of godly men and women who shall follow Him.
May the Holy Spirit make rare music for you upon this harp of deliverance, justification and sanctification. May He bring you effectually out of all oppression and fear, and set your feet upon the Rock.
Heavenly Father, we bring this soul before You in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Deliver from every oppression of darkness and from every bondage of sin and fear. Wash with the blood of the Lamb and fill with Your Holy Spirit. Grant a heart kept in holy fear and childlike confidence, a life kept pure and pleasing to You, and in Your perfect time grant a marriage that honors Christ and, if it please You, children to be brought up in Your nurture and admonition. Let this one know the earnest of the inheritance within, that You are a refuge both now and forever. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord, who is our ransom and our peace. Amen.

I prayed for this in Jesus Name.
Chrysostom
Beloved of All
Your prayer to the Lord Jesus Christ has been heard and we join our voices with yours before Him.
We give thanks with you that all praise and glory belong to Jesus Christ alone, for salvation and deliverance come through Him alone. He did not wait for our poor and low nature to climb up to Him, but He came to us. He took our nature to Himself and carried it to the house of His Father. In Him we have baptism for the remission of sins and deliverance from judgment, and the inheritance of the kingdom, for He has poured His Spirit into our hearts.
You have asked for deliverance from every spirit spouse. Know that those who belong to Christ are joined to the Lord and are one spirit with Him, and no other spiritual bond can rightly claim those who are His. If you have received His gift, remain led by His Spirit day by day, as a ship is led by its pilot. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God, and the Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children and heirs through Christ. The Spirit is gentle and pure, a Spirit of meekness, and He brings not bondage again but adoption, so that we cry Abba, Father. We pray that the Lord will deliver you fully, cleanse you, keep you in purity and chastity, and guard your body and soul under His reign.
We also hear your desire for a Christ centered marriage and for children, and this desire is good when it is according to Christ. Marriage according to Christ is not merely of passion or of the flesh, but spiritual, a holy covenant in which a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two become one flesh. It is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, made to show the love of Christ for His Church, the Bridegroom for His Bride, bound together in the unity of the Spirit and the bond of peace. Sex and living together belong within that covenant alone, and love that binds in this way bears all things lightly because it is formed on godliness. We pray that if it is the Lord's will, He will in His time lead you to such a marriage, a union formed on faith and kindness and love for Him, and that you will approach it unconquered by impurity, as one who has kept the victory that belongs to the chaste.
And we pray with you for children as a gift from the Lord, should He grant them, that they may be received as those entrusted by God and brought up with great care in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, laying a good foundation from the earliest age.
So we pray: Heavenly Father, in the precious name of Jesus Christ, deliver your child from every evil oppression and every false bond, wash and keep this life by the power of the cross and resurrection, fill this heart with your Holy Spirit and lead it each day, grant a marriage according to Christ, one man and one woman in lifelong faithfulness and purity, and if it pleases you, bless that union with children to be raised for your glory. Make this life steadfast in your Church, bound to your people in love and peace, looking always for the better resurrection you have promised. Amen.

Beloved of All
Your prayer for deliverance and for a Christ centered marriage blessed with children is heard, and God invites you to bring every fear and longing to Him with confidence.
The good news is that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, has paid the full penalty for sin as your substitute. Because He suffered that penalty and dismissed His spirit in death for you, God now has a righteous basis to forgive everyone who believes into a relationship with Him. God is faithful, and He has called you into fellowship with His Son. If you have trusted in Jesus alone for salvation, there is therefore now no condemnation for you. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made you free from the law of sin and death.
That freedom is the answer to the fear you expressed. Jesus showed His authority when He rebuked unclean spirits and they obeyed Him and came out. No supposed spiritual marriage or bondage can stand against His authority. The spirit of the world is a spirit of rebellion against God, but the Spirit of God brings adoption. When you are born again, your spirit which was dead is made alive, and the Spirit of God bears witness with your spirit that you are a child of God, an heir of God and joint heir with Christ. You can draw near and say Father with intimacy and confidence. The old nature is reckoned dead, crucified with Christ, and you are risen in Christ to walk in newness of life. You are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if the Spirit of Christ dwells in you, and if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ he does not belong to Him. But if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Your desire for a Christ centered marriage and for children is a good and holy desire. God's design for marriage is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and it is within that covenant that sexual union and living together belong. It is right to ask God to prepare you and a future spouse to love Jesus first and to love each other faithfully within that design, and to entrust children to His timing and wisdom.
So walk after the Spirit and be led and taught by the Spirit. Through the Spirit put to death the deeds of the flesh and set your mind on the things of the Spirit. God has revealed His deep things to you by His Spirit, and He has given you the mind of Christ. Do not be controlled by fear or by the wisdom of this world, but be controlled by the Spirit of God, living in communion with Him where His Spirit meets with your spirit. In that place you will know His peace and joy and victory, and you will grow rich in the things of the Lord.
We pray for you now. Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your faithfulness and for the fellowship we have with Your Son Jesus Christ. We thank You that Christ became our justification, sanctification and redemption, and that in Him there is no condemnation. We ask in the precious name of Jesus that You would make Your deliverance and freedom real to this dear one, that every work of darkness would be broken by the authority of Christ, and that fear would be replaced by the assurance of being Your child. Fill this life with Your Holy Spirit, guide and strengthen and teach, and help to walk after the Spirit and not after the flesh. According to Your will, prepare a Christ centered marriage that honors You as a covenant of one man and one woman for life, and if it is Your will, bless that union with children to be raised in the knowledge of Jesus. Make this life a testimony of the transforming power of the cross. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord we pray, Amen.
The good news is that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, has paid the full penalty for sin as your substitute. Because He suffered that penalty and dismissed His spirit in death for you, God now has a righteous basis to forgive everyone who believes into a relationship with Him.

So walk after the Spirit and be led and taught by the Spirit. Through the Spirit put to death the deeds of the flesh and set your mind on the things of the Spirit. God has revealed His deep things to you by His Spirit, and He has given you the mind of Christ. Do not be controlled by fear or by the wisdom of this world, but be controlled by the Spirit of God, living in communion with Him where His Spirit meets with your spirit. In that place you will know His peace and joy and victory, and you will grow rich in the things of the Lord.
We pray for you now. Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your faithfulness and for the fellowship we have with Your Son Jesus Christ. We thank You that Christ became our justification, sanctification and redemption, and that in Him there is no condemnation. We ask in the precious name of Jesus that You would make Your deliverance and freedom real to this dear one, that every work of darkness would be broken by the authority of Christ, and that fear would be replaced by the assurance of being Your child. Fill this life with Your Holy Spirit, guide and strengthen and teach, and help to walk after the Spirit and not after the flesh. According to Your will, prepare a Christ centered marriage that honors You as a covenant of one man and one woman for life, and if it is Your will, bless that union with children to be raised in the knowledge of Jesus. Make this life a testimony of the transforming power of the cross. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord we pray, Amen.
