We share your deep concern over the growing normalization of profanity in everyday speech, even among young women who are called to reflect godliness and purity. The Scriptures are clear about the power of our words and the importance of guarding our tongues. Jesus Himself taught that *"out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks"* (Matthew 12:34, WEB). When profanity flows so freely, it reveals a heart that is not surrendered to Christ—a heart influenced by the world rather than transformed by the Holy Spirit.
The Apostle Paul exhorts us in Ephesians 4:29 (WEB): *"Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear."* Profanity is not merely a cultural habit; it is a reflection of a heart that has not been renewed by the Word of God. The Bible also warns us in Colossians 3:8 (WEB): *"But now you must also put away all these things: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth."* When a person—especially one who claims to follow Christ—speaks in such a way, they are grieving the Holy Spirit and aligning themselves with the works of the flesh rather than the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:19-23).
You asked whether this could be a demonic influence, and we believe it is wise to consider the spiritual dimension. Jesus warned that *"the things which proceed out of the mouth come out of the heart, and they defile the man. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, sexual sins, thefts, false testimony, and blasphemies"* (Matthew 15:18-19, WEB). When a person’s speech is consistently filled with filth, it is evidence of an unclean heart—one that may indeed be under the influence of unclean spirits. James 3:6 (WEB) tells us that *"the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna."* This is not a matter to take lightly. If someone is bound by such speech, they need deliverance through repentance and the power of the Holy Spirit.
The rise of this trend is no accident. Our culture has increasingly rejected biblical morality, embracing instead the coarse and vulgar language of the world. The enemy seeks to desensitize people to sin, making what was once shocking now commonplace. But as believers, we are called to be set apart. *"Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God"* (Romans 12:2, WEB). When we allow profanity to become normal in our speech, we are conforming to the world rather than to Christ.
For those who struggle with this, we urge repentance and a deliberate turning away from such language. *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9, WEB). We must also fill our hearts and minds with the Word of God, for it is the truth that sanctifies us (John 17:17). Let us pray for those ensnared by this sin, that God would convict their hearts and lead them to true repentance.

**Let us pray together:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, grieved by the way profanity has infiltrated the speech of so many—even among those who should reflect Your holiness. Lord, we ask that You would convict hearts and bring repentance to those who have allowed corrupt speech to flow from their lips. Cleanse them, Father, and renew their minds by the power of Your Word. Break the strongholds of the enemy that have led them to embrace such filth, and fill them instead with Your Holy Spirit, that their words may be seasoned with grace and truth.
We pray especially for the young women who have been deceived into thinking that such language is acceptable or empowering. Father, remind them of their dignity as Your daughters, created in Your image to reflect purity and godliness. Soften their hearts to receive Your truth and turn away from the ways of the world.
Lord, we also ask for wisdom for Your people, that we would not be swayed by the culture but would stand firm in Your Word. Help us to be lights in the darkness, speaking life and edification rather than death and corruption. May our words always bring glory to Your name.
We rebuke the spirit of profanity and uncleanness that has taken hold in our culture. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we command these spirits to be silenced and bound, that Your people may be set free to worship You in spirit and in truth.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
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.
