We stand with you in this spiritual battle for your family, lifting our voices together in agreement with your prayers, for we know that where two or more are gathered in the name of Jesus, He is in the midst (Matthew 18:20). Your heart cries out for protection, deliverance, and restoration, and we join you in pleading the blood of Jesus over every aspect of your home and family. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but we declare that the Lord is your shield and fortress, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Your faith in calling upon the name of Jesus is a mighty weapon, and we commend you for standing firm in His authority.
The situation with your older daughter is deeply troubling, and we must address it with both compassion and biblical truth. The young man and his family appear to be instruments of division, manipulation, and rebellion—tools the enemy is using to pull your daughter away from her family and, more importantly, from the will of God. Scripture warns us, *"Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14). If this young man is not a believer who walks in obedience to Christ, their relationship is built on a foundation that cannot stand. Even more concerning is the fact that they are living together outside of marriage, which is fornication—a sin that grieves the heart of God (1 Corinthians 6:18-20). This arrangement is not only spiritually dangerous but opens the door to further bondage, confusion, and harm.
We also recognize the pain of your younger daughter, who is witnessing the destructive influence this relationship has on her sister and your family. It is heartbreaking when rebellion and deception create rifts between siblings, but we trust that the Lord will heal these wounds and restore what has been broken. Your prayer for a godly spouse for both your daughters aligns with God’s perfect will. We must emphasize that marriage is a sacred covenant before God, designed to reflect the relationship between Christ and His Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). Any relationship that does not honor this truth is outside of God’s design and will only lead to heartache. We pray that your daughters will seek spouses who are committed to Christ, who will lead them in righteousness, and who will cherish them as Christ loves the Church.
Your son’s struggles with autism, PTSD, and anxiety are not hidden from the Lord. He is the Great Physician, the One who binds up the brokenhearted and heals every disease (Psalm 147:3, Matthew 4:23). We pray for supernatural peace to guard his mind and heart, for the Lord to quiet every storm within him, and for healing to flow through his body, soul, and spirit. The enemy may seek to torment him, but we declare that *"the Lord will perfect that which concerns him"* (Psalm 138:8) and that *"no weapon formed against him shall prosper"* (Isaiah 54:17).
As for your older daughter, we must speak the truth in love: she is walking a dangerous path. The influence of this young man and his family is leading her into rebellion against her family and against God. The Bible warns, *"Bad company ruins good morals"* (1 Corinthians 15:33), and we see this playing out in her life. The obsession, manipulation, and control she is experiencing are not of God but are tactics of the enemy to keep her bound. We pray that the Holy Spirit will convict her heart, open her eyes to the truth, and give her the strength to break free from this ungodly tie. We declare that *"the Lord will fight for her; she need only be still"* (Exodus 14:14) and that He will make a way of escape (1 Corinthians 10:13). We also pray that she will repent of any sexual immorality, for *"the body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body"* (1 Corinthians 6:13). Her worth is found in Christ alone, and any relationship that pulls her away from Him is not from God.
We stand in agreement with you that this young man and his mother must be removed from your daughter’s life. Their influence is toxic, and their schemes must be frustrated by the power of God. We pray that the Lord will expose their motives, confuse their plans, and cause them to depart from her. We also pray for your daughter’s heart to turn back to her family, to the values she was raised with, and most importantly, to the Lord. May she find the courage to walk away from this darkness and return to the light of Christ.
For your younger daughter, we pray for divine comfort and assurance. The Lord sees her pain and will restore the joy of sisterhood in His timing. We ask that He surround her with godly friendships that encourage her in her faith and that He prepare her heart for a future spouse who will love her as Christ loves the Church. May she rest in the knowledge that she is deeply loved by her Heavenly Father, who will never leave her nor forsake her (Deuteronomy 31:6).
As you pray for a peaceful and joyful holiday season, we declare that the Lord will restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). The enemy has sought to steal your family’s joy, but we proclaim that *"the joy of the Lord is your strength"* (Nehemiah 8:10). We pray for unity, laughter, and love to fill your home, and for every divisive scheme to be rendered powerless by the blood of Jesus. May this season be a testament to God’s faithfulness and a time of healing for your family.
Finally, we remind you of the power of praying in the name of Jesus. You have done well to invoke His name, for *"there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12). It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father, and it is in His name that we have authority over the enemy. We encourage you to continue standing firm in prayer, clothed in the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18), and trusting that the Lord will bring victory.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You as a united body of believers, lifting this precious family into Your hands. Lord, You are a God of justice, mercy, and deliverance, and we ask that You move mightily in their lives. We plead the blood of Jesus over their home, their minds, and their hearts, declaring that no weapon formed against them shall prosper. Lord, we bind every spirit of fear, manipulation, confusion, division, isolation, chaos, and control that has sought to attack this family through this young man and his family. We command these unclean spirits to flee in the name of Jesus and never return.
Father, we pray for Your divine intervention in the life of this older daughter. Open her eyes to the deception that has ensnared her. Break every ungodly soul tie and deliver her from the bondage of this relationship. Convict her heart of the sin of living outside of marriage and draw her back to You in repentance. Give her the strength to walk away from this young man and return to her family. Surround her with Your love and truth, and let her find her worth in You alone. Lord, if this young man is not a believer, we pray that You remove him from her life completely. Frustrate his plans and those of his mother, and let their influence over her come to an end.
We pray for healing and peace for the son in this family. Lord, You know his struggles—autism, PTSD, anxiety—and we ask that You touch his mind, body, and spirit with Your healing power. Calm his thoughts, quiet his fears, and let him rest in Your presence. Protect him from every spiritual attack and fill his dreams with Your peace.
Father, we lift up the younger daughter to You. Comfort her heart and heal the pain of seeing her sister pulled away. Surround her with godly friendships and prepare her for a future spouse who will love her as Christ loves the Church. Let her know that she is seen, loved, and cherished by You.
Lord, we pray for unity and restoration in this family. Heal the wounds caused by division and rebellion. Bring them together in love, joy, and peace, especially during this holiday season. Let Your light shine brightly in their home, driving out every trace of darkness.
We thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness. We trust that You are working all things together for their good (Romans 8:28) and that You will bring victory in every area of their lives. Strengthen this mother as she stands in the gap for her family. Fill her with Your peace and assurance, knowing that You hear her prayers and will answer.
We declare that this family belongs to You, Lord, and we resist every plan of the enemy to harm them. Let Your will be done in their lives, and let Your glory be revealed through their story. In the mighty and precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
