We join with you in lifting up this urgent plea for your daughter’s deliverance and restoration, for we know that the enemy seeks to entangle God’s children in ungodly bonds that hinder their walk with Christ. Your prayer reflects a parent’s heart crying out for their child’s freedom, and we stand with you in the authority of Jesus’ name to see these chains broken.
First, we commend you for recognizing the spiritual battle at hand—ungodly soul ties are real and dangerous, forming when relationships operate outside of God’s design. These ties can create emotional, financial, and even spiritual bondage, as we see in your daughter’s situation. The young man’s family appears to be enabling a relationship that is not honoring to God, and this meddling has placed undue burdens on your daughter. The Bible warns us in **2 Corinthians 6:14**, *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? What communion has light with darkness?"* If this young man is not a believer walking in obedience to Christ, this relationship is already on shaky ground, built on a foundation that cannot stand before God. Even if he claims to be a believer, the fruit of this relationship—financial strain, emotional idolization, and family interference—does not reflect the peace and godliness that should mark a Christ-centered courtship.
We must also address the idolization of this young man. When we elevate a person above God in our hearts, we break the first and greatest commandment: *"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind"* (**Matthew 22:37**). Your daughter’s focus should be on seeking Christ first, not on a man who is leading her into bondage. If she is financially or emotionally supporting him in ways that are not biblically sound—such as enabling laziness, irresponsibility, or dependence—this is not love, but a distortion of it. **1 Timothy 5:8** tells us, *"But if anyone doesn’t provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever."* If this young man is not providing for himself or is relying on your daughter inappropriately, this is a red flag that cannot be ignored.
Additionally, if there is any sexual immorality in this relationship, it must be repented of immediately. **1 Corinthians 6:18** commands, *"Flee sexual immorality! 'Every sin that a man does is outside the body,' but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body."* Fornication defiles the temple of the Holy Spirit and creates soul ties that are only broken through repentance and the blood of Jesus. If this is happening, your daughter must turn away from this sin and seek purity, for *"the body is... for the Lord, and the Lord for the body"* (**1 Corinthians 6:13**).
Now, let us pray together for your daughter’s complete deliverance:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, agreeing with this parent’s cry for their daughter’s freedom. Lord, You see the ungodly soul ties that have formed between this young man, his family, and this precious daughter of Yours. We declare that these ties are broken now by the power of the blood of Jesus. Every emotional, financial, and spiritual bond that is not of You, we command it to be severed in Jesus’ name. Let the young man return to his own home, where his mother can attend to his needs without interfering in Your plans for this daughter. Remove every financial burden, every emotional stronghold, and every lie of the enemy that has kept her bound. Father, we ask that You expose any sin in this relationship—whether it be idolatry, fornication, or rebellion—and bring Your conviction upon both of their hearts.
Lord, we pray that Your Holy Spirit would open your daughter’s eyes to see this young man as he truly is, not through the lens of infatuation or emotional dependence, but through Your truth. Let her see the bondage this relationship has placed her in and give her the strength to walk away completely. Break the spirit of idolization off of her, Father. Restore her heart to a place of worshiping You alone. If she has been defiled in any way, cleanse her by Your blood and restore her purity. Lead her to repentance and a renewed commitment to holiness.
We pray that she would move back home, where she can be under godly covering and protection. Surround her with Your peace and clarity as she seeks Your will for her life. Remind her of **Jeremiah 29:11**, that Your plans for her are for welfare and not for evil, to give her a future and a hope. Father, raise up godly mentors and believers around her who will speak Your truth into her life and encourage her to wait on You for a spouse who loves You above all else.
For the young man, Lord, we pray that You would convict him of his actions and lead him to repentance. If he is not walking with You, save him, Lord! Draw him to Yourself so that he may turn from his ways and seek Your kingdom first. But if he is unwilling, remove him from your daughter’s life completely. Do not let her be unequally yoked, but set her free to pursue the godly marriage You have for her.
Father, we bind every spirit of manipulation, control, and deception that has operated through this relationship. We loose Your Spirit of truth, freedom, and discernment over your daughter. Let her walk in the fullness of what You have called her to, unencumbered by the enemy’s schemes. Restore what has been stolen—her peace, her joy, her financial stability, and her purity.
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for moving mightily on behalf of Your daughter. We trust that You are working all things together for her good, and we give You all the glory. In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
Finally, we encourage you to continue standing in the gap for your daughter. Speak life and truth over her, remind her of God’s standards for relationships, and cover her in prayer daily. If she is resistant, do not grow weary—keep interceding, for *"The effective, earnest prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective"* (**James 5:16**). Trust that the Lord is fighting this battle, and He will bring victory. Stay firm in your faith, and do not compromise on biblical truth, even if it is difficult. God’s ways are higher, and His plans for your daughter are good. Keep pointing her to Christ, the only One who can truly satisfy her heart.
