Relative having affair with ex friend

Our hearts are deeply grieved to hear of this painful and destructive situation unfolding within this family. We stand together before the Lord, lifting up this request with urgency, knowing that He is a God of justice, truth, and redemption. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), but we declare that God’s light will expose every hidden deed of darkness and bring an end to this wickedness.
First, we must address the grave sin at the heart of this matter. Adultery is a grievous offense against God and a betrayal of the sacred covenant of marriage. The Scriptures are clear: *"Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed is undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers."* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). This relative’s actions are not only destroying their own soul but are also inflicting deep wounds on their spouse, children, and extended family. The ex-friend involved in this affair is equally guilty, as they are complicit in this sin and the manipulation of wealth and status for ungodly purposes. *"Don’t be deceived! ‘Evil companionships corrupt good morals.’"* (1 Corinthians 15:33, WEB). We rebuke this unholy alliance and pray that the Lord will sever every tie that binds them in sin.
To the spouse and children suffering under this abuse, we want to remind you that God sees your pain and hears your cries. You are not forgotten. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). He is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We pray that He will surround this family with His protection, comfort, and provision. May He grant the spouse wisdom, courage, and discernment to take the necessary steps to safeguard themselves and their children—whether that means seeking godly counsel, legal protection, or separation from this destructive environment. *"The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble."* (Psalm 9:9, WEB).
We also pray for the exposure of this relative’s harmful behavior. The Bible tells us that *"nothing is hidden that will not be revealed; nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light."* (Luke 8:17, WEB). The wealth, status, and connections that are being exploited for evil will not shield this person from God’s justice. We ask the Lord to bring their deeds into the light, to dismantle every scheme of the enemy, and to thwart the plans of those who seek to harm this family. May the truth prevail, and may this exposure lead to repentance—not just for the sake of the relative, but for the healing of all affected.
At the same time, we pray for conviction and repentance. It is not God’s will that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). We ask the Lord to pierce the hearts of this relative and their accomplice with the weight of their sin. May they be brought to a place of godly sorrow that leads to true repentance, confession, and restoration. *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* (1 John 1:9, WEB). Without repentance, there can be no healing, and we pray that the Lord will not allow them to remain hardened in their sin.
For the children caught in the midst of this storm, we lift them up to the Lord, asking that He would shield their hearts and minds from the trauma of this situation. May He surround them with godly influences—mentors, teachers, or family members who will speak life, truth, and love into their lives. *"But Jesus said, ‘Allow the little children to come to me, and don’t forbid them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.’"* (Mark 10:14, WEB). We pray that these children will not carry the weight of their parent’s sins but will instead grow to know the love and faithfulness of their Heavenly Father.
Finally, we must address the broader family dynamics and vendettas at play. Bitterness, anger, and retaliation will only fuel the fire of destruction. We urge everyone involved to guard their hearts against unforgiveness and to surrender this situation to the Lord. *"Don’t say, ‘I will pay back evil.’ Wait for the Lord, and he will save you."* (Proverbs 20:22, WEB). Vengeance belongs to the Lord (Romans 12:19), and He will act justly. Let this be a time for the family to seek unity in Christ, to forgive as they have been forgiven, and to trust that God will right every wrong in His perfect timing.

**Let us pray together:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this broken and hurting family. Lord, You are a God who sees all things, and nothing is hidden from Your sight. We ask that You intervene in this situation with Your mighty hand. Protect the spouse and children from further harm, Lord. Be their shield and their strong tower. Surround them with Your angels and provide for their every need—emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
Father, we pray for the exposure of every hidden deed of darkness. Bring to light what has been done in secret, Lord. Frustrate the plans of the wicked and let their schemes come to nothing. Break the power of wealth, status, and ungodly connections that are being used to perpetuate this sin. Let truth prevail, and let justice roll down like waters (Amos 5:24).
We pray for conviction, Lord. Soften the hearts of this relative and their accomplice. Let them see the gravity of their sin and the destruction it is causing. Draw them to repentance, Father, and lead them to the foot of the cross where they can find forgiveness and redemption. Do not let them remain in their rebellion, but turn their hearts back to You.
Lord, we lift up the children in this family. Protect their innocent hearts, Father. Let them know Your love and peace in the midst of this chaos. Raise up godly mentors and supporters to walk alongside them and speak Your truth into their lives. Do not let this season define them, but let it drive them closer to You.
Father, we also pray for the extended family. Heal the divisions and bitterness that have taken root. Let this be a time where Your people choose forgiveness over vengeance, trust over fear, and unity over division. Remind them that the battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:12). Equip them to stand firm in prayer and in Your Word.
Lord, we ask all of this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. It is only through His name that we have access to Your throne, and it is only through His blood that we find forgiveness and healing. May this family encounter Jesus in a real and transformative way. Let His peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds (Philippians 4:7).
We declare that no weapon formed against this family will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We speak life, healing, and restoration over them. May Your will be done, Lord, and may Your kingdom come in this situation. We trust You, Father, and we thank You for hearing our prayers. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
