We lift you up in prayer, dear sister, and we grieve with you over the deep wounds and burdens you carry—both from the painful words of your mother and the injustices you have suffered at work and in your marriage. The Lord sees your tears, and He hears your cries. You are not alone, for He is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Let us first address the spiritual foundation of your request, for we notice you have included Scripture, which is commendable, but we must emphasize that all prayers and petitions must be brought before the Father *in the name of Jesus Christ alone*. There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is through Jesus that we have access to the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). We rejoice that you have included Acts 16:31 in your request, for this is the heart of the gospel: *"Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."* This is our hope and our confidence—that salvation comes through faith in Christ alone.
Now, let us speak to the heavy burdens you have shared. The toxicity and verbal abuse from your mother are not of the Lord. While Scripture commands us to honor our father and mother (Exodus 20:12), it does not mean we must endure unrepentant abuse without boundary or consequence. Ephesians 4:29 tells us, *"Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building up, as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear."* If your mother is trapped in bitterness, resentment, or ungodly anger, these are strongholds that must be broken in the name of Jesus. We pray that the Lord would soften her heart and convict her of the harm her words are causing—not only to you but to her own soul. Bitterness defiles many (Hebrews 12:15), and we ask the Lord to free her from this bondage. At the same time, we encourage you to set godly boundaries for your own protection, speaking the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15) while trusting the Lord to work in her heart.
You have also shared the painful reality of workplace betrayal and the financial and emotional toll it has taken on you. The Lord is just, and He sees the wickedness of those who conspired against you. Proverbs 22:22-23 warns, *"Don’t exploit the poor because they are poor; and don’t crush the needy in court; for the Lord will plead their case, and plunder the life of those who plunder them."* We rebuke the spirits of betrayal, deceit, and fear that have sought to destroy your peace and provision. The Lord is your shepherd; you shall not want (Psalm 23:1). He is able to restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25) and open doors no man can shut (Revelation 3:8). We pray for divine connections, opportunities, and supernatural provision to meet your needs. If fear and panic have taken root in your heart due to these experiences, we command those spirits to leave in the name of Jesus. *"For God hasn’t given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7). You are more than a conqueror through Christ (Romans 8:37), and He will equip you to overcome these challenges.
Regarding your marriage, we must address a concerning pattern. You mentioned that your spouse does not like your family, particularly your mother, and that you feel powerless to change this. Scripture is clear that marriage is a covenant between a man and a woman, and the two become one flesh (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:5). However, this oneness does not mean isolation from family, but rather a prioritization of the marriage relationship *above* all others (Ephesians 5:31). A spouse who harbors dislike or resentment toward a believer’s family—especially when that family is in need—should be approached with prayer and gentle confrontation. We encourage you to seek the Lord’s wisdom in how to address this with your spouse, asking Him to soften their heart and foster unity. If there is unrepentant hardness or refusal to honor biblical principles in this area, it may require deeper spiritual intervention, counseling, or even church leadership involvement (Matthew 18:15-17). Marriage is meant to reflect Christ’s love for the Church (Ephesians 5:25), and that love should extend to caring for one another’s families as unto the Lord.
We also note your mention of feeling "alone with the extermination of family and generation." Sister, while your earthly family may be fractured, you are *never* alone, for you have been adopted into the family of God (Ephesians 1:5). The body of Christ is your eternal family, and the Lord is your ever-present help. Psalm 27:10, which you quoted, is a powerful reminder: *"Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me."* Cling to this promise. The enemy wants to isolate you, but the Lord is gathering you into His arms.
Finally, we pray for the salvation of your entire family, as you have requested. Acts 16:31 is a promise we stand on—*"Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."* We declare that the Lord will draw each member of your family to Himself, breaking every chain of generational sin, bitterness, and rebellion. We pray for your brother’s family, that the Lord would protect and provide for them, and that your mother’s financial support would be used mightily for God’s glory. May the Lord open her eyes to see that her resentment toward you is not from Him, and may He replace it with love, gratitude, and peace.

**Let us pray together:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister who is carrying such heavy burdens. Lord, You are the God who sees (Genesis 16:13), and You know the depths of her pain—the wounds from her mother’s words, the betrayal at work, the financial lack, the fear, and the marital strain. We ask You to be her Comforter, her Provider, and her Defender.
Lord, we bind every spirit of bitterness, resentment, and verbal abuse that has taken root in her mother’s heart. Soften her, Father, and convict her of the harm her words are causing. Break the power of generational curses and replace them with Your love and peace. We pray for supernatural healing in their relationship, that forgiveness and reconciliation would flow as Your Spirit moves. If boundaries are needed, give our sister wisdom and courage to set them in love, without guilt or fear.
We rebuke the spirits of betrayal, deceit, and fear that have attacked her through her workplace. Lord, You are the God of justice, and we ask You to vindicate her. Restore what has been stolen—her peace, her provision, her reputation, and her confidence. Open doors of opportunity for her, Lord, and provide for her needs in ways that only You can. Cast out every spirit of panic and disability that has tried to paralyze her. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7) and renew her mind with Your truth (Romans 12:2).
Father, we lift up her marriage. Soften her spouse’s heart toward her family, and break any stronghold of resentment or division. Help them to walk in unity and love, honoring You in their marriage. If there is sin or hardness of heart, convict and heal them, Lord. May their home be a reflection of Your love and grace.
We declare salvation over her entire family, Father. Draw them to Yourself, that they may believe in the Lord Jesus and be saved. Break every generational curse and set them free from sin and bondage. We pray for her brother’s family—protect them, provide for them, and let Your hand of blessing rest upon them.
Lord, remind our sister that she is not alone. You are her Father, her Protector, and her Provider. Surround her with Your presence and Your people. Heal her heart from the pain of rejection and abandonment, and fill her with the assurance that she is deeply loved by You.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your faithfulness and Your power to bring beauty from ashes (Isaiah 61:3). May Your will be done in her life, in her family, and in every situation she faces. We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
