We have heard your heart for your mother and we join with you in bringing her before the throne of grace in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for we know the battle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of wickedness.
We want to gently point out that your request did not mention the name of Jesus, and we want to remind you that it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is only by His name that we can be saved and have authority over the enemy. As it is written in Acts 4:12, There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. And Jesus Himself said in John 14:6, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. If we confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in our heart that God raised Him from the dead, we will be saved as Romans 10:9 promises, and then we can boldly approach God and stand against darkness in His name.
We understand sexual possession to mean a spiritual oppression or demonic influence affecting her mind and body in a sexual way, and we know that God desires purity and freedom for His children. The Scripture teaches us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and are not our own, for we were bought with a price. In 1 Corinthians 6:18-19 it says, Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God. And in Hebrews 13:4 it says, Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled, but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers. God created sexuality to be holy and beautiful within the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman, and any sexual activity outside of that, as well as any demonic counterfeit of it, is not from God and must be renounced and rebuked.
We also know that the enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, and he often gains a foothold through past sexual sin, trauma, occult involvement, or openings that have not been closed through repentance. But we have been given authority in Christ. In Luke 10:19 we are told, Behold, I give you the authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you. And 1 John 4:4 reminds us, You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world. James 4:7 tells us, Be subject therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Therefore we rebuke every unclean spirit and every work of darkness that has come against your mother, and we command it to leave in the name of Jesus Christ. We declare that she belongs to God and that no weapon formed against her shall prosper. We pray that she would submit herself fully to God, confess any sin that needs to be confessed, and close every door to the enemy through repentance and the covering of the blood of Jesus.
We pray together now, Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son and we lift up this precious mother to You. Lord, You see her affliction and You know the torment she has endured. We ask You to have mercy on her and set her completely free. We plead the blood of Jesus over her mind, her body, and her spirit, and we ask You to cleanse her and make her whole. Holy Spirit, fill every place in her that has been oppressed and let Your light drive out all darkness. Give her a spirit of repentance and a hunger for Your Word and Your presence. Break every chain of sexual impurity and demonic bondage and restore to her purity, peace, and soundness of mind. We pray that she would put on the whole armor of God as described in Ephesians 6:11, that she may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil, and that she would be strengthened in You. We also lift up her child who intercedes for her, give them faith, courage, and wisdom to continue to stand in prayer and to seek godly counsel and support from mature believers and pastors in a Bible believing church. Help this family to walk in holiness, to flee all sexual immorality, and to pursue what is pure and pleasing to You. We declare freedom and healing over her now, believing that whom the Son sets free is free indeed. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.
We encourage you to continue to pray and fast for her, to speak the Word of God aloud over her daily, and to help her stay in fellowship with faithful Christians who can pray with her in person. Encourage her to confess and forsake any known sin, to remove any objects or influences that are not honoring to God, and to fill her mind with Scripture, worship, and prayer. Do not face this alone, seek the help of trusted pastors or elders who can provide personal prayer and discipleship. We are standing with you and trusting God for her complete deliverance and restoration.
