We hear the deep distress in your heart, and we stand with you in prayer and biblical truth as we seek God’s wisdom and deliverance in this painful situation. The manipulation, control, and spiritual oppression you describe are not of God, and we must address this with both prayer and scriptural clarity. First, we notice you have not invoked the name of Jesus in your request, yet it is only through Him that we have authority over darkness and access to the Father. Jesus said, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me"* (John 14:6, WEB). There is no other name by which we are saved (Acts 4:12), and it is in His name alone that we rebuke the enemy’s schemes and claim victory.
The behavior you describe—narcissism, manipulation, financial control, and a history of unrepentant sin—is not only emotionally damaging but spiritually dangerous. Scripture warns us about such influences: *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). While this verse often applies to marriage, the principle extends to any close relationship where one person is walking in rebellion against God. Your brother’s past actions (prison, drug use) and current behavior (control, lack of repentance) suggest he is not submitted to Christ. This is not a matter to take lightly, for *"bad company corrupts good morals"* (1 Corinthians 15:33, WEB). You cannot reason with a spirit of manipulation or narcissism—these are spiritual strongholds that require divine intervention.
The feeling of being under "witchcraft" or spiritual oppression is real, and we must confront it with the authority of Christ. The apostle Paul tells us, *"For we don’t wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places"* (Ephesians 6:12, WEB). If there is indeed a demonic influence at work—whether through generational curses, unrepentant sin, or occult involvement—we must bind it in Jesus’ name. However, we also urge you to examine whether you have given any legal ground to the enemy through unforgiveness, fear, or compromise. Repent of any bitterness or resentment, and ask God to break every ungodly soul tie between you and your brother.
Financially, your concern is valid. Scripture teaches that we are to be good stewards of what God has entrusted to us (Luke 16:10-12), and it is not wrong to seek protection over what is rightfully yours—especially when it involves caring for your mother with Alzheimer’s. Proverbs 22:7 (WEB) warns, *"The rich rule over the poor. The borrower is servant to the lender."* Your brother’s control over finances has placed you in a form of bondage, and this is not God’s will. We pray for God to expose every hidden scheme, to restore what has been unjustly taken, and to give you wisdom on how to legally and biblically protect your inheritance. Seek godly counsel—whether from a pastor, a biblical counselor, or a trusted Christian attorney—to navigate this situation with integrity.
As for your mother’s condition, we grieve with you. Alzheimer’s is a cruel thief, and the enemy often uses such vulnerabilities to sow discord. But take heart: *"Cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you"* (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). God sees your love for her and your desire to honor her. Pray for supernatural peace and clarity as you care for her, and ask the Lord to surround her with His angels (Psalm 91:11).
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We declare that no weapon formed against Your child shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and every tongue that rises against her in judgment, You shall condemn. Lord, we bind every spirit of manipulation, control, narcissism, and witchcraft that has sought to oppress her. We break every ungodly soul tie, every generational curse, and every legal ground the enemy has tried to establish in her life or her family. By the blood of Jesus, we cancel every assignment of the enemy against her finances, her mind, and her peace.
Father, we ask for Your divine intervention in this financial battle. Expose every hidden scheme and restore what has been stolen or misused. Give her wisdom, Lord—supernatural strategies—to protect her inheritance and to care for her mother with dignity. Raise up godly advisors, Father, people of integrity who can help her navigate this season with Your favor.
We rebuke the spirit of fear and confusion that has made her feel trapped. Lord, You are the God who sets the captives free (Luke 4:18), and we declare freedom over her mind, her emotions, and her circumstances. Break the power of every ungodly influence in her brother’s life. Soften his heart, Lord, and bring him to repentance. If he refuses to turn from his ways, we ask that You remove his ability to harm her further. Surround her with Your angels, Father, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
For her mother, we pray for comfort and protection. Heal her mind, Lord, in ways that only You can. Strengthen her daughter to care for her with patience and grace, and let Your presence be tangibly felt in their home.
Finally, Father, we ask that You would restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). Bring justice where there has been injustice, peace where there has been turmoil, and hope where there has been despair. Let Your will be done in this situation, and let Your name be glorified.
In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, dear sister. Do not waver in prayer, and do not give in to fear. *"The Lord is your keeper. The Lord is your shade on your right hand. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more"* (Psalm 121:5-8, WEB). Trust Him to fight this battle for you. Seek His face daily, and He will lead you to victory. If you have not already, surrender this entire situation to Him and ask for His will to be done—even if it means difficult steps of separation or legal action for protection. He is faithful, and He will not abandon you.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
