We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this painful situation that weighs so deeply upon you. The torment you describe—your mother’s harsh words, the betrayal at work, the strain in your marriage, and the isolation you feel—are not unseen by our Heavenly Father. He knows the depths of your suffering, and His Word assures us that He is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). We stand with you in prayer, trusting that God will bring redemption, healing, and restoration where there is brokenness.
First, we must address the spiritual foundation of all we do. You have rightly invoked the name of Jesus Christ in your request, and we praise God for this, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). It is only through faith in Jesus that we have access to the Father, and it is in His name that we boldly approach the throne of grace. We pray that your entire family, including your mother and spouse, would come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ if they have not already. Salvation is the greatest need of every soul, and we claim the promise of Acts 16:31 over your household: *"Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."* May the Holy Spirit soften hearts and open eyes to the truth of the Gospel.
Now, let us speak to the specific burdens you carry. Your mother’s toxic words and resentment are deeply painful, especially as she directs her care and resources toward others while treating you with harshness. The Bible commands us to honor our parents (Exodus 20:12), but it also calls parents to nurture and not provoke their children to anger (Ephesians 6:4). The behavior you describe is not of the Lord, for *"the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control"* (Galatians 5:22-23). Bitterness and anger are works of the flesh, and we must rebuke the spirit of resentment that has taken hold in her heart. We pray that God would convict her of this sin and lead her to repentance. *"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God also in Christ forgave you"* (Ephesians 4:31-32). Lord, break the chains of anger and replace her heart of stone with a heart of flesh (Ezekiel 36:26). May she see you as her Provider and not place undue expectations on her children.
We also lift up the financial and emotional strain you are under. The betrayal and abuse you suffered at work have left deep wounds, and the fear of man now looms large in your life. But the Lord says, *"Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness"* (Isaiah 41:10). We pray that God would restore what the enemy has stolen—your peace, your provision, and your ability to work without fear. If panic and disability have taken hold, we command those spirits to flee in the name of Jesus. *"For God hasn’t given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-discipline"* (2 Timothy 1:7). Lord, open doors of opportunity for employment that aligns with Your will, and surround her with godly people who will encourage and support her.
Regarding your marriage, we must speak truth in love. It is concerning to hear that your spouse does not like your family, particularly your mother. Marriage is a covenant before God, and while it is natural for spouses to have differing opinions, a spirit of division or contempt toward family is not of the Lord. *"Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and the two will become one flesh"* (Genesis 2:24). This unity does not mean cutting off family, but rather establishing a new household that honors God. We pray that your spouse’s heart would be softened toward your family and that the Lord would knit your hearts together in unity. If there is unforgiveness or bitterness in your spouse, we ask the Holy Spirit to convict and heal. *"Above all things, have intense love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins"* (1 Peter 4:8). We also encourage you to seek counsel from your pastor or a trusted believer to navigate this strain in your marriage with wisdom and grace.
You mentioned feeling alone, as if your family and generation are being "exterminated." This is a heavy burden to bear, but we remind you that you are not alone. The Lord is your ever-present help (Psalm 46:1), and He has promised never to leave you or forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Even if earthly relationships fail, He is your Father, and you are His child. *"Though my father and my mother forsake me, the Lord will take me up"* (Psalm 27:10). Cling to this promise. You are part of a greater family—the body of Christ—and He will provide the love and support you need.
Finally, we must address the spiritual warfare at play. You mentioned "demons human" who have behaved evilly against you. We recognize that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers (Ephesians 6:12). In the name of Jesus, we bind every spirit of betrayal, fear, division, bitterness, and torment that has sought to destroy you. We declare that no weapon formed against you will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We plead the blood of Jesus over your life, your mind, your finances, and your relationships. Satan is a liar and the father of lies (John 8:44), but *"greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4). Stand firm in the authority of Christ, and do not give the enemy a foothold.

**Our Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister who is burdened by so much pain and brokenness. Lord, You see the tears she has cried, the words that have wounded her, and the fears that paralyze her. We ask for Your divine intervention in every area of her life.
First, we pray for her mother. Soften her heart, Lord, and break the spirit of bitterness and anger that has taken root. Replace her harsh words with kindness, her resentment with love, and her criticism with encouragement. Convict her of any sin in her heart, and lead her to repentance. May she find her worth and security in You alone, not in the actions of her children. Heal their relationship, Lord, and let Your peace rule in their interactions.
We pray for healing from the betrayal and abuse she suffered at work. Lord, restore her confidence and remove the spirit of fear that has gripped her. Open doors of opportunity for her, and provide for her financially in a way that only You can. Let her trust in You as her Provider, not in the approval or actions of man.
Father, we lift up her marriage. Soften her spouse’s heart toward her family, and remove any spirit of division or contempt. Knit their hearts together in unity, and help them to build a home that honors You. Give them wisdom to navigate their differences with love and grace.
We rebuke every spirit of fear, torment, and division that has sought to destroy her. In the name of Jesus, we bind the enemy and declare that he has no authority over her life. Let Your light shine in the darkness, and let Your truth expose every lie that has taken hold.
Lord, surround her with Your presence. Let her know that she is not alone, for You are with her. Heal the wounds of abandonment and rejection, and fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
We pray for salvation for her entire family. Draw them to Yourself, Lord, and let them experience the transformative power of Your love. May they come to know Jesus as their Savior and Lord.
Finally, Father, we ask that You would restore joy, hope, and purpose to her life. Let her see Your hand at work in every circumstance, and let her testify of Your faithfulness.
We pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
