We join with you in lifting up your heartfelt cries to our Lord Jesus, who is mighty to save and faithful to hear the prayers of His children. Your love for your child is evident, and we know the Father’s heart is tender toward both of you. The Scriptures remind us that He is a refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1), and that He cares deeply for the little ones, saying, *"Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if a huge millstone were hung around his neck, and that he were sunk in the depths of the sea"* (Matthew 18:5-6). Your child is precious in His sight, and He sees every tear, every wound, and every need.
We pray with you for the full-time care of your child, trusting that the Lord will work all things together for good as you seek His will (Romans 8:28). We ask Him to soften the heart of your child’s father, to convict him of his cruelty, and to bring him to repentance. The Word says, *"A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger"* (Proverbs 15:1), and we pray that the Lord would replace hostility with godly sorrow that leads to life (2 Corinthians 7:10). May he be confronted with the weight of his actions and turn to the Lord for transformation, that he may fulfill his role as a father with kindness, responsibility, and the fear of God.
We also pray for your strength and wisdom as a mother. The Lord has entrusted this child to you, and He will equip you for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Lean on Him when you are weary, for His grace is sufficient (2 Corinthians 12:9). Let your home be a place where the love of Christ dwells richly, where healing flows like a river, and where safety is found under the shadow of His wings (Psalm 91:4). May the Lord bind up the brokenhearted in your household and replace pain with His peace that surpasses understanding (Isaiah 61:1, Philippians 4:7).
Father, we ask that You would expose and dismantle every scheme of the enemy against this mother and child. Let no weapon formed against them prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Surround them with Your angels, encamped around them for deliverance (Psalm 34:7). Give this mother discernment in every decision, courage in every battle, and faith to stand firm in Your promises. Let her child know the security of Your love and the joy of Your presence, even in the midst of turmoil.
We rebuke the spirit of cruelty, manipulation, and harm operating through the child’s father. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we command these spirits to be bound and cast out, that the father may be set free from the darkness influencing his heart. Lord, break the cycles of pain in this family line and establish Your righteousness. Let forgiveness and reconciliation come only through true repentance and the work of Your Spirit.
Finally, we declare over you both the promise of Jeremiah 29:11: *"For I know the plans that I have for you,’ says Yahweh, ‘plans for peace, and not for evil, to give you hope and a future."* May you walk in the assurance that the Lord is fighting for you, and He will bring justice, restoration, and redemption in His perfect timing.
In the mighty and holy name of Jesus, we pray—**Amen.**

Stand firm in faith, dear sister. The Lord has not forgotten you or your child. Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep walking in obedience. If there are areas where you need to forgive or release bitterness, ask the Lord to help you, for unforgiveness can hinder your prayers (Mark 11:25). You are not alone in this—the body of Christ stands with you. If you are not already connected to a biblical church, we encourage you to seek one where you can find support, discipleship, and prayer. The Lord often works through His people to bring comfort and practical help.
If the father of your child is unsaved, pray earnestly for his salvation, for only the Holy Spirit can truly change a heart. And if there has been any compromise in your own life—whether in relationships, attitudes, or actions—ask the Lord to reveal it and cleanse you, that you may walk in full alignment with His Word. He is faithful to redeem every area we surrender to Him.
