We join with you in lifting up this heartfelt cry for protection and divine intervention over your son and daughter, recognizing the deep love and concern you carry as their parent. Your prayer reflects a mother’s fierce devotion to her children, and we stand with you in the authority of Christ to rebuke the enemy’s schemes and declare God’s sovereign will over this situation.
First, we affirm that you have come boldly before the throne of grace in the name of Jesus, the only name by which we can approach the Father and see victory. As Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is through Him alone that we have power to break chains, silence deceit, and restore what the enemy has sought to corrupt. Your prayer is rooted in this truth, and we echo your petitions with confidence in His might.
We also take note of the urgency in your words regarding this young man’s influence over your daughter. The spirit of manipulation and control you’ve identified is not of God, for *"God is not a God of confusion, but of peace"* (1 Corinthians 14:33, WEB). Where there is division, the Lord desires unity; where there is deception, He brings truth. We rebuke this toxic influence in the name of Jesus, commanding every ungodly tie to be severed by the power of the Holy Spirit. *"No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me,"* says Yahweh (Isaiah 54:17, WEB). Your daughter belongs to Christ, and we declare that her mind, heart, and spirit are guarded by Him. Any attempt to lead her astray or sow discord in your family is rendered powerless by the blood of Jesus.
As for your son, we agree with you that the Lord has already shown you the path that works best for his health and well-being. We pray for supernatural wisdom and authority to be upon you as you advocate for him, that every decision made would align with God’s perfect will. *"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him"* (James 1:5, WEB). May the Lord silence every voice that seeks to disrupt the care He has ordained, and may He expose any hidden motives that are not of Him. We ask that this young man and his mother would be convicted by the Holy Spirit, led to repentance, and turned toward humility. *"God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble"* (1 Peter 5:5, WEB). May they be so focused on their own relationship with Christ that they no longer interfere in what does not concern them.
We also sense the Lord’s heart for *you* in this season. Parenting is a sacred calling, and the battles you face are not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces. *"Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil"* (Ephesians 6:10-11, WEB). We pray that you would be strengthened with His might, clothed in His armor, and filled with His peace that surpasses understanding. You are not fighting alone—the Lord is your shield, your defender, and your vindicator.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue standing firm in prayer, for *"the effective, earnest prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective"* (James 5:16, WEB). Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you do not faint (Galatians 6:9). Trust that the Lord is working even now, behind the scenes, to bring about His purposes for your son, your daughter, and your entire family.
**Let us pray together:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious mother and her children. Lord, You see the battles raging—both seen and unseen—and we ask You to rise up as a mighty warrior on their behalf. We thank You for the team You’ve placed around her son and for the wisdom You’ve already provided. Father, we ask You to block every manipulative influence seeking to control or disrupt his care. Silence the enemy’s voice and expose every scheme meant to bring confusion or division. Let only Your truth and Your peace reign in this situation.
We break every ungodly soul tie between this young man and our sister’s daughter. By the power of the Holy Spirit, we sever every cord of manipulation and control, declaring that Your freedom and protection cover her mind, heart, and spirit. Lord, surround her with Your angels and guard her from every lie or distraction that would pull her away from Your will. Restore unity and clarity to this family, and let Your wisdom prevail in every decision made.
We pray for this young man and his mother—convict them by Your Spirit, Lord. Bring them to a place of humility and repentance, that they may turn their focus to their own lives and their own walk with You. Remove any pride or selfish ambition that has led them to interfere where they should not.
Strengthen our sister with Your might, Lord. Fill her with Your wisdom, Your authority, and Your peace as she advocates for her son. Let her not grow weary, but let her stand firm in the knowledge that You are fighting for her. Cover this family with Your blood, Lord Jesus, and let no weapon formed against them prosper.
We declare Your victory over this situation, Father. Let Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Restore what has been broken, protect what is vulnerable, and bring glory to Your name through it all. We ask this in the powerful, matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
