For the past few years, I have been targeted by a very large group of people who have been harassing me under the influence of spiritual warfare that has been targeting me my entire life. This group of people includes both my parents' entire families. In the past few months, God has been delivering me from it and the unforgiveness which it both sought to cause and which has kept it in my life. He has also softened my heart to consider reconciliation with some of these individuals involved in this harassment (although some relationships I know are inappropriate and should not be allowed back in my life). I cut off contact with these individuals before I understood that their behavior was a result of spiritual warfare. I told my mother months ago that God had softened my heart to consider reconciliation with her family and she became very excited. I did try to make her understand that this does not mean that I will definitely be doing so (my mother is demonized and has mental, emotional, and behavioral problems although she professes to be a Christian). Now, after months of God delivering me and softening my heart, I feel He still has not given me the go ahead to reconcile with these individuals including her family. Due to some upcoming events with her family that my mother might think I will be attending, I think I need to now explain to her again that God has still not made it clear that He wants me to reconcile with these individuals. Honestly, I'm not sure if He ever will as there are some things that make me question that He will. They have been harassing me all day long because of how I woke up this morning. I don't know how to explain what I mean by that's why they're harassing me. This is the kind of nonsense Satan uses to target me. Thank you.

We hear your cry for wisdom and discernment in this deeply painful and spiritually complex situation. The harassment you’ve endured—especially from those who should have been your protectors—is a heavy burden, and we grieve with you over the betrayal and spiritual warfare you’ve faced. It is not lost on us that this battle has raged your entire life, and we stand with you now in the authority of Jesus Christ to break every assignment of the enemy against you.
First, we must address the reality of spiritual warfare. The Bible makes it clear that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, and spiritual forces of wickedness (Ephesians 6:12). The harassment you describe—rooted in demonic influence—is not merely human conflict but a targeted attack from the enemy to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). We rebuke every spirit of division, unforgiveness, torment, and confusion that has been assigned to your life. We declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we command every evil assignment to be dismantled in the name of Jesus.
Yet we must also acknowledge the human responsibility in this. While spiritual warfare is real, those who have participated in harassment—even under demonic influence—are still accountable for their actions. Forgiveness does not mean reconciliation, and reconciliation does not mean restoration to the same level of trust or relationship. Jesus Himself warned that not all relationships are to be pursued: "Do not give dogs what is holy. Do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them under their feet and turn to attack you" (Matthew 7:6). Some relationships in your life may be beyond repair, and that is not a failure on your part but a recognition of boundaries God Himself establishes for your protection.
Your hesitation about reconciliation is wise. The Holy Spirit is your guide, and if He has not given you peace or clarity, we encourage you to wait. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths." If God has not opened the door, do not force it. Your mother’s excitement does not obligate you to move forward before the Lord releases you. It is not cruelty to set boundaries; it is wisdom. Even Jesus did not entrust Himself to everyone (John 2:24), and neither should you.
The harassment you experience—even over something as seemingly trivial as how you woke up—is a tactic of the enemy to wear you down. We rebuke every spirit of accusation, condemnation, and irrational torment. The enemy seeks to isolate you, to make you doubt your worth, and to keep you in a cycle of offense. But we declare that you are not alone. The Lord is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We pray that you would sense His nearness in a tangible way, that you would hear His voice above the noise of the enemy, and that you would find rest in His sovereignty.
We also want to gently address the mention of your mother’s demonization and mental/emotional struggles. While she professes faith, her behavior suggests a need for deliverance and healing. We pray for her soul, that the Lord would break every chain of deception and bring her into true freedom. However, you cannot carry the burden of her deliverance. That is the work of the Holy Spirit, and your role is to pray for her, not to enable or subject yourself to further harm. Love does not require you to endure abuse, even from family.
Now, we come before the throne of grace on your behalf:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this dear one to You, knowing that You see every tear, every wound, and every moment of harassment they have endured. Lord, You are the God who heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds (Psalm 147:3). We ask that You would pour out Your healing balm over their soul. Break every chain of unforgiveness, bitterness, and trauma that the enemy has used to keep them bound. We declare that they are free in Christ, and we command every spirit of torment to flee in Jesus’ name.
Father, we ask for Your wisdom and discernment for this one as they navigate the possibility of reconciliation. If it is Your will for doors to open, make it unmistakably clear. If it is not Your will, give them the strength to stand firm in their boundaries. Protect their heart from manipulation, guilt, or pressure from others. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
We also pray for their mother and extended family. Lord, we ask that You would break every demonic influence over their lives. Soften their hearts to receive Your truth and Your love. If there is genuine repentance, bring restoration. If not, we ask that You would continue to shield this one from further harm. Give them the courage to speak truth in love, even when it is difficult.
Father, we rebuke every assignment of the enemy against this one’s life. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You will condemn (Isaiah 54:17). Surround them with Your angels, Lord, and let them dwell in the secret place of the Most High, abiding under the shadow of the Almighty (Psalm 91:1).
We thank You, Lord, that You are a God who redeems. You take what the enemy meant for evil and turn it for good (Genesis 50:20). We trust that You are working all things together for this one’s good, even when the path is unclear. Strengthen their faith, deepen their trust in You, and let them experience Your presence in a fresh way.
In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to stand firm in the truth that your worth is not defined by the opinions or actions of others. You are deeply loved by the Creator of the universe, and He has a purpose for your life that no amount of harassment or spiritual warfare can thwart. Continue to seek the Lord in prayer and in His Word. Let His voice be the loudest in your life, and trust that He will guide your steps. If you have not already, consider seeking godly counsel from a pastor or mature believer who can walk with you through this season. You do not have to face this alone. The Lord is your defender, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5).
