We hear your deep concern as parents for your daughter, and we stand with you in prayer, lifting her up before the throne of grace. The revelation of her involvement on social media, particularly the inappropriate interactions and the proposal to a boy, is indeed alarming. We must address this with both truth and compassion, for the Word of God is clear about the dangers of the world and the importance of guarding one’s heart and mind.
First, we must rebuke the spirit of deception and worldliness that has crept into your daughter’s life through social media and ungodly influences. The Bible warns us in 1 Corinthians 15:33, *"Do not be deceived: 'Evil company corrupts good habits.'" (WEB)* The friends she has chosen have led her astray, and we must pray that she recognizes the difference between godly and ungodly companionship. Proverbs 13:20 tells us, *"He who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm."* We pray that she reconnects with her earlier friend, who may have been a better influence, and distances herself from those who do not lead her toward righteousness.
The issue of her proposing to a boy is deeply concerning, as it reflects a heart that is not yet aligned with God’s design for relationships. The Bible is clear that romantic relationships should be pursued with the intention of marriage, and only within the boundaries of godly wisdom and parental guidance. We must rebuke any spirit of premature affection or emotional entanglement in her life. 2 Corinthians 6:14-15 warns, *"Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness? What agreement has Christ with Belial? Or what portion has a believer with an unbeliever?"* We pray that any ungodly attachments in her heart are broken in the name of Jesus, and that she grows in wisdom and maturity to make decisions that honor God.
We also address the issue of the inappropriate photos she posted. The Bible calls us to modesty and self-control, as seen in 1 Timothy 2:9, *"In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety; not just with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing."* We pray that these images are not misused and that she learns the importance of guarding her purity and reputation. May she understand that her worth is found in Christ alone, not in the approval of others or the fleeting validation of social media.
Your fear as a parent, rooted in the words of an astrologer, must be surrendered to the Lord. Astrology is a false and deceptive practice that the Bible condemns. Deuteronomy 18:10-12 says, *"There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices sorcery, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer, or a charmer, or a consulter with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh."* We rebuke the spirit of fear that has taken hold of you and declare that your daughter is protected under the blood of Jesus. There is no threat that can stand against the power of God. Isaiah 41:10 assures us, *"Don’t you 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."*
We must also address the lack of mention of Jesus in your initial concern. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). We encourage you to ground your prayers and your daughter’s life in the truth of the Gospel. Romans 10:9 says, *"If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."* We pray that your daughter comes to know Jesus as her Lord and Savior, if she has not already, and that her life is transformed by His love and truth.
Let us now lift these concerns to the Lord in prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this precious daughter and her parents to You. Lord, we ask that You would break any ungodly attachments in her life, particularly any emotional or romantic entanglements that do not align with Your will. We rebuke the spirit of deception and worldliness that has influenced her through social media and ungodly friendships. Father, we pray that You would restore her to her earlier friend, who may have been a godly influence, and that You would give her the wisdom to discern the company she keeps. Protect her from those who would lead her astray, and surround her with friends who love You and seek to honor You.
Lord, we ask that You would guard her heart and mind from the misuse of any inappropriate photos she may have posted. Cleanse her from any shame or regret, and teach her the value of modesty and self-control. May she find her worth in You alone, and may she grow in wisdom and maturity to make decisions that honor You.
Father, we also lift up the parents, particularly the mother who struggles with fear rooted in astrology. We rebuke the spirit of fear in the name of Jesus and declare that Your perfect love casts out all fear (1 John 4:18). We pray that You would fill her heart with faith and assurance that her daughter is protected under the blood of Jesus. Remove any lingering doubt or anxiety, and replace it with the peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, we pray that this family would be rooted and grounded in Your Word. May they seek You first in all things and find their strength and hope in You alone. We ask that You would draw this daughter closer to You, that she would come to know Jesus as her Lord and Savior, and that her life would be a testimony of Your grace and truth.
We declare that no weapon formed against this family shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and that Your angels are encamped around them for protection (Psalm 91:11). We thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and for the victory we have in Jesus Christ. In His mighty name we pray, Amen.
We encourage you to continue to stand on God’s promises and to speak life and truth over your daughter. Proverbs 22:6 says, *"Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."* Even in this challenging season, God is at work, and He is able to restore and redeem all things. Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep surrendering your fears to Him. He is faithful.
