I feel bound up in my mother's sin. Her name is ###. I really need to let go of her. Please pray for us both.

We understand the heavy burden you carry, feeling bound by your mother’s sin and the deep need for release—not just for yourself, but for her as well. The weight of another’s sin can feel crushing, but we must remember that each person stands before God individually, and while we can intercede, we cannot carry the guilt or consequences of another’s choices. The Scripture is clear: *"The soul who sins, he shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on him"* (Ezekiel 18:20, WEB). This does not mean we ignore the impact of sin—indeed, it often ripples through families—but it does mean we must release what is not ours to bear.
At the same time, we are called to love and forgive, even as we set healthy boundaries. Jesus taught us to *"love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you"* (Matthew 5:44, WEB). This love does not mean enabling sin or remaining in harmful entanglements, but it does mean releasing bitterness and trusting God to work in her life as only He can. If your mother’s sin has led to patterns of dysfunction, co-dependency, or ungodly influence in your life, it is right to seek freedom through Christ. *"Don’t you know that to whom you present yourselves as servants to obedience, his servants you are whom you obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?"* (Romans 6:16, WEB). You cannot change her, but you *can* surrender her to God and choose to walk in obedience yourself.
We also notice that your request does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom alone we have access to the Father and the power to break every chain. *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is only by His authority that we can pray effectively, for *"whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son"* (John 14:13, WEB). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus as Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. Confess your sins, turn from them, and believe in His death and resurrection for your salvation. *"If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved"* (Romans 10:9, WEB). Without this foundation, prayer lacks the power and connection to God that we desperately need.
Now, let us pray together for you and your mother:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, acknowledging that You alone are sovereign over every life and every sin. Lord, we lift up this dear one who feels bound by the weight of their mother’s sin. We ask You to break every ungodly soul tie, every chain of generational iniquity, and every burden that was never theirs to carry. Father, Your Word says *"If the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed"* (John 8:36, WEB), so we declare freedom over this child of Yours today. Release them from the lies that they must bear this weight, and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
For their mother, **###**, we pray for conviction, repentance, and a radical encounter with Your grace. Lord, You are not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). Softening her heart, Lord, and draw her to Yourself. Break the power of sin in her life and replace it with Your righteousness. If there are strongholds of addiction, rebellion, or deception, we command them to be torn down in Jesus’ name. Raise up godly influences in her life and surround her with Your truth.
Father, we also pray for healthy boundaries and wisdom for this Your child. Show them how to love without enabling, how to forgive without carrying what is not theirs, and how to walk in obedience even when it is hard. Heal any wounds caused by her sin, and restore what the enemy has stolen. Let this season be one of breakthrough, where both mother and child experience Your redemption in fresh ways.
We rebuke every scheme of the enemy to keep this family in bondage. No weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, they shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of You.
Thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayer. We trust You to move mightily, 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 immerse yourself in Scripture, particularly verses about freedom, forgiveness, and identity in Christ. Meditate on passages like Galatians 5:1 (*"Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don’t be entangled again with a yoke of bondage"*) and Psalm 32:1-2 (*"Blessed is he whose disobedience is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom Yahweh doesn’t impute iniquity, in whose spirit there is no deceit"*). If you have not already, seek out a biblical counselor or a mature believer who can walk with you through this season. You are not alone—the body of Christ is here to support you, and the Holy Spirit is your Comforter and Guide.
Walk in the freedom Christ has purchased for you, and trust Him to work in your mother’s life. His grace is sufficient, and His power is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). Keep praying, keep believing, and keep surrendering all to Him.

We're right here with you, dear one. We understand the weight you're carrying, feeling bound by your mother's sin. It's like trying to hold up a heavy curtain that's not meant for our shoulders. But remember, God never intended for us to bear another's burden in that way. He wants us to lay it down at the foot of the cross. He says in His Word, "Cast your cares upon the Lord, for He cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7, WEB).
Let's pray together, shall we? "Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You in the name of Jesus, our Savior. Lord, we lift up this child of Yours who feels bound by their mother's sin. We ask You to break every chain, every soul tie that's not of You. Fill them with Your peace, Lord. Help them to understand that they are free in Christ.

Break the power of sin in her life and replace it with Your righteousness. Surround her with Your truth, Lord. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
