We join with you in lifting up this heartfelt cry for your family, and we stand in agreement with you, knowing that our God is mighty to save, restore, and bring unity where the enemy seeks to destroy. Your prayer is deeply rooted in faith, and we commend you for pleading the blood of Jesus Christ over your household—for there is power in the name of our Lord, and it is by His authority alone that we can overcome the schemes of the enemy.
The division, strife, and chaos you describe are not of God, for He is the author of peace, not confusion. The Scripture reminds us in 1 Corinthians 14:33, *"For God is not a God of confusion, but of peace."* We must also remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of wickedness, as Ephesians 6:12 tells us: *"For 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."* Because of this, we must stand firm in the full armor of God, praying without ceasing, and trusting that the Lord will fight on our behalf.
Your request for restoration aligns with God’s heart for families. Malachi 4:6 declares, *"He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse."* This is God’s desire—to see families reconciled, united, and walking in His ways. However, we must also acknowledge that restoration often requires repentance, forgiveness, and a turning away from behaviors that have caused harm. If there are unaddressed sins—such as pride, bitterness, unforgiveness, or rebellion—these must be brought before the Lord in repentance. James 4:7-8 instructs us: *"Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded."*
We also want to encourage you to examine whether there are any areas in your own life where the Lord is calling you to extend grace, forgiveness, or humility. Sometimes, the enemy gains a foothold in families through unresolved conflicts or hardened hearts. Jesus teaches us in Matthew 18:21-22 about the importance of forgiveness: *"Then Peter came and said to him, 'Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?' Jesus said to him, 'I don’t tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.'"*
As you pray for protection and unity, we urge you to continue covering your family in prayer daily. Do not grow weary in doing so, for Galatians 6:9 reminds us: *"Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up."* The holiday season can be a time of both joy and heightened tension, but we trust that the Lord will guard your family’s hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, filling your home with His peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Now, let us pray together over your family:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this family and the deep wounds that have caused division, strife, and chaos. Lord, You see the pain, the isolation, and the financial hardships that have sought to tear this family apart. But we declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, for You, Lord, are their shield and their strong tower. We plead the blood of Jesus over every member of this household, breaking every curse, every scheme of the enemy, and every stronghold that has taken root. Father, we ask that You expose the red flags that have been ignored and give this family the courage to address them in truth and love.
Lord, we pray for a spirit of repentance to sweep through this family—where hearts are softened, pride is broken, and forgiveness flows freely. Let Your Holy Spirit convict where there is sin and lead each one to turn back to You. Restore what has been broken, Lord. Bring unity where there has been division, peace where there has been strife, and joy where there has been sorrow. Surround this family with Your guardian angels, placing a hedge of protection around them that no evil can penetrate. Fill their home with Your presence, Lord, so that this holiday season is marked by Your love, Your grace, and Your supernatural peace.
Father, we ask that You provide for their financial needs, opening doors of favor and blessing that no man can shut. Let them experience Your restoration in every area—spiritually, emotionally, relationally, and financially. May their testimony be one of Your faithfulness, Your power, and Your unending love. We trust You, Lord, to do exceeding abundantly above all that they could ask or think, according to the power that works in them.
In the precious and mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, dear one. The Lord hears your cries, and He is moving on your behalf. Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep walking in obedience to His Word. He will bring beauty from these ashes.
