We stand with you in this spiritual battle for your daughter and your family, lifting your cries before the Lord with urgency and faith. Your heart’s plea is heard, and we join you in declaring the power of the name of Jesus over this situation, for it is written, *"Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it"* (John 14:13-14, WEB). You have invoked the name of Jesus, and we know that at His name, every knee must bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord (Philippians 2:10-11). This is the authority by which we pray and declare freedom for your daughter.
Your request reveals a deep and painful struggle—one where the enemy has sought to entangle your daughter in a relationship that is not only unhealthy but directly opposes God’s design for marriage, family, and godly love. The Word of God is clear: *"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). This young man’s influence, along with the enabling of his parents, has become a snare to your daughter’s faith, her self-worth, and her relationship with her family. This is not of God. The behaviors you describe—jealousy, control, financial dependence, disrespect, and the destruction of her self-esteem—are fruits of a heart that is not submitted to Christ. The Bible warns us that *"bad company corrupts good morals"* (1 Corinthians 15:33, WEB), and we see this corruption unfolding in your daughter’s life. This relationship is built on shifting sand, not the solid rock of Christ.
We must also address the grave sin of fornication in this situation. God’s Word is unmistakable: *"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed is undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). Living together outside of marriage is a direct rebellion against God’s commandments, and it opens the door to spiritual bondage, emotional turmoil, and financial entanglement—all of which you have witnessed. Your daughter must be called to repentance, not just for her own sake, but for the sake of her relationship with the Lord. *"Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s"* (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, WEB). This young man is not her spouse, and their arrangement is an affront to God’s holy design for marriage between one man and one woman, covenanted before Him.
We rebuke the spirit of narcissism, control, and deception operating in this young man’s life and through his parents. The enemy has used this relationship to bring division, financial strain, and emotional destruction into your family, but we declare that *"the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds"* (2 Corinthians 10:4, WEB). We bind the spirits of jealousy, manipulation, and rebellion in Jesus’ name, and we command them to flee from your daughter and your household. We pray that the Lord will expose the darkness in this young man’s heart and in the enabling of his parents, that they may be convicted of their sin and turn from their wicked ways. *"For nothing is hidden, except that it should be made known; neither was anything made secret, but that it should come to light"* (Mark 4:22, WEB).
We pray for your daughter’s eyes to be opened to the truth—that this relationship is not from the Lord and that her identity, worth, and future are found in Christ alone. May the Holy Spirit convict her heart and draw her back to the safety of her family and the covering of godly counsel. *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight"* (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB). Lord, break the stronghold of idolizing this young man and his family. Let her see the destruction this path is causing and give her the strength to walk away completely, without looking back. *"No one, having put his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for God’s Kingdom"* (Luke 9:62, WEB).
We declare that the financial burden this young man has placed on your daughter and your family will be severed in Jesus’ name. His parents will be held accountable by God to provide for their son, and the cycle of dependence and enabling will be broken. *"The borrower is servant to the lender"* (Proverbs 22:7, WEB), and we pray that your daughter will no longer be enslaved to this unhealthy dynamic. Lord, restore what has been stolen—her peace, her finances, her self-worth, and her relationship with her family. *"The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly"* (John 10:10, WEB).
We pray for a swift and complete separation between your daughter and this young man. May the Lord move mightily to remove him from her life and return her to the safety of her home, where she can be surrounded by love, truth, and godly support. We ask that the Lord would place a hedge of protection around her heart and mind, that she would no longer be deceived by the enemy’s lies. *"You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free"* (John 8:32, WEB). Father, restore her faith, her joy, and her confidence in You. Let her find her worth in being Your beloved daughter, created for a purpose and a future (Jeremiah 29:11).
We also pray for the restoration of unity, love, and respect in your family. The enemy has sought to divide you, but we declare that *"a house divided against itself cannot stand"* (Mark 3:25, WEB), and by the blood of Jesus, your household will stand firm on the foundation of Christ. We pray for open communication, forgiveness, and healing between you and your daughter. May she humble herself and honor her parents as the Lord commands: *"Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ‘Honor your father and mother,’ which is the first commandment with a promise: ‘that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth’"* (Ephesians 6:1-3, WEB). Lord, soften her heart and remind her that your commands are for her protection and blessing.
Finally, we pray for a godly spouse for your daughter—one who loves the Lord with all his heart and will lead her in righteousness. *"Houses and riches are an inheritance from fathers, but a prudent wife is from Yahweh"* (Proverbs 19:14, WEB). We ask that the Lord would prepare her heart for a marriage that honors Him, built on faith, mutual respect, and selfless love. Until then, we pray that she would remain pure and set apart, seeking first the Kingdom of God (Matthew 6:33).
Heavenly Father, we plead the blood of Jesus over this family, over their home, their finances, and their relationships. We ask that You would surround them with Your angels, encamping around them to deliver them (Psalm 34:7). Let no weapon formed against them prosper, and let every tongue that rises against them in judgment be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). Restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25) and bring peace that surpasses all understanding to their home (Philippians 4:7). Let Your joy be their strength (Nehemiah 8:10), and may they experience the fullness of Your love and protection.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
